Chapter 901 Deliberately Cultivate
“No!” Jared gave her a cold reply.
Amber's smile froze, “You... Are you angry?"
She looked at the man’s hard face and it was obvious that he was angry.
Jared took Amber's face in his hands, "| was angry, and | was very angry, and you know why?”
Amber blinked and didn't answer. Clearly, she didn't know.
Jared sighed “I'm mad at you for teasing Connor Stockert in front of him. Do you have any idea what you would do if you
teased him and he got mad and attacked you on the spot?”
".. I know it's not right.” Amber finally knew what made him so angry. He was afraid she'd get hurt.
She took the man’s hand away from her face, “In fact, after { had teased him, | realized that ( had acted impulsively and |
regretted it, and was worried that Connor Stockert was going to hit me, but Connor Stockert didn't do anything to me.”
“You should be glad he didn't. If he did, you wouldn't be here right now. You'd be with Elias Lansdale” Jared was frowning.
Amber shook his arm, “Okay, don't be angry. | know | was wrong. | won't be so impulsive in the future”
She said coquettishly.
Watching her blink, Jared pressed his eyebrows, “That's good.”
“| promise.” Amber nodded.
Jared flicked her on the forehead, “What else did Connor Stockert say after he suddenly turned hostile?”
"He told me not to jump to such an early conclusion and to give me two days to think it over, and maybe | would change my
mind.” Amber said.
Jared squinted, “Change your mind?”
“Well, he said so, and he said it with a certain certainty, as if he was sure that | would change my mind after two days’
consideration”
Jared pursed his lips, “In that case, he must have some leverage, or he wouldn't have said such a thing.”
“I think so.” Amber played with hid large hand with a look of confusion in her eyes, “It’s just, | don’t think he has anything
about me that he can threaten me with.”
She had been thinking about it ever since she came back, and she hadn't thought of anything wrong.
So, she was pretty sure that Connor Stockert had no leverage.
Jared looked at Amber, “If you don’t know, don't think about it. You'll know what he's up to in two days.”
“Okay” Amber nodded, “I think so.”
“And then (‘ll meet him with you.” Jared nodded.
Amber didn't refuse.
She was definitely nervous about confronting with Connor Stockert alone, but with Jared, she was definitely feeling better.
Besides, Connor Stockert never said she couldn't bring anyone when they met her in two days.
“Anything else?” Jared asked again.
Amber shook her head, “No, that's all he said to me, but...”
She looked up at him with a palpable hesitation in her eyes.
Jared saw her like that and immediately realized she had something to say and it was about him.
“Say what you want to say.” Jared stroked her silky hair.
Amber took a breath, “All right, I'll tell you what. Connor Stockert told me he wasn't here just for Alice, he was visiting an old
friend, before asking me to cut Alice some slack. He didn’t say exactly who that old friend was, but I'm pretty sure he was talking
about your mother”
His voice was hoarse with a deep chill in it, Visit my mother? Oh, as a traitor, how dared he visit her? In thirty years, he had
never visited her at the Farrelt family. After her death, he did not go to her memorial. It would be the height of hypocrisy for him to
visit her now.”
Yeah, he had been out of it for 30 years, and now he was here and it was not touching or affectionate, it was just
disgusting.
If Connor Stockert cared enough to visit Jared's mother at Olkmore in the past, or visit her grave, she could say he had a
conscience.
Amber said quickly, "About what Connor Stockert looks like. | had expected him to be a big, thick, fierce man, but! did not
expect him to be very elegant and gentle, wearing a white suit and carrying a short walking stick as a symbol of status, like a
scholar and an artist. It's the opposite of what I thought it would be”
But what Amber was trying to tell him was not Connor Stockert's physical appearance, but rather his personality and
temperament.
Amber bit her lower lip and asked tentatively, “Jared, do you remember who you used to be? | mean, before you were
hypnotized.’
