“Amber, you got me wrong. How could I not wish you well, being your uncle?” Bernardo Delgado was a crafty man who managed to keep a straight face when Amber exposed his dark side. “I don’t mean anything by this, but I think Mr. Farrell, now that he’s with you, should know something about your past. It’s not fair to keep it from him. What do you say?”
Amber sneered, “Mr. Delgado, you always have so many theories.”
“Well, I’m just saying.”
“But it’s a pity.” Amber stared at him coldly, “You think Jared doesn’t know what you just said?”
“What?” Bernardo Delgado paused.
Amber said, “Or do you think, as an outsider, you know more than he does?”
She was now completely at peace and settled.
At first, she was worried that Jared would mind what Bernardo Delgado said.
And while she was close to Cole and the others, there was nothing between them.
She was very well-behaved and wasn’t afraid of what people would think, but she was afraid that Jared would get jealous and overthink things.
After all, normally, even a man calling her would make him jealous.
And now that Bernardo Delgado brought up the fact that she used to be close to Cole, he was gonna be jealous.
In that case, she would have to coax him, and she was worried that she might not be able to do it very well.
That was what she was really worried about when she heard Bernardo Delgado’s words.
Her fears, however, turned out to be unnecessary as Jared gave her a look when he lifted her chin.
His eyes told her clearly that he was jealous easily, but he wouldn’t be jealous of nothing.
The past is the past and should not be brought to the present to affect the present life.
And secondly, he told her that he knew there was nothing going on between her and Cole. And even if there was, he knew that it was Cole and others liked her, not that she liked them.
So, if he was angry, he was angry at Cole and others, not her.
Knowing this, she was completely relieved and was able to deal with Bernardo Delgado.
“Little Leaf is right.” Jared took Amber’s hand and squeezed it, “I mean, again, she had a lot of men around her, and that was before she was with me, and I don’t blame her, and I have no right to blame her. I even want to thank the men around her. If they had not been protecting her and helping her, she might not have taken over Goldstone Co. so smoothly. Second, I know exactly what they have to do with Little Leaf. There’s nothing going on between them. Otherwise, with my possessiveness, do you think I’d let them go if they had something with Little Leaf?”
His words left Bernardo Delgado speechless.
What the hell?
Not only did he not mind having so many men around his own woman, but he thanked them.
Was Jared Farrell out of his mind?
