Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 414 Blackmail
Jared's jaw twitched slightly, "He passed out, probably because of your words."
So, that was the case.
Amber pouted, "Then he's fragile."
Jared nodded, "Yeah, a bit."
At this time, Mrs. Gardner walked over with Makayla and saw Trenton lying on the ground. She paused and quickly darted over with a pinched face. She screeched, "Trenton."
"Dad!" Makayla followed tight and helped Trenton up.
Mrs. Gardner gave him first aid like rubbing his temple.
After a while, Trenton regained his sense. He breathed much better and stopped twitching, but his face was still pallid.
Mrs. Gardner stroked his chest and asked worriedly, "Trenton, are you okay?"
"It's fine," Trenton waved his hand, "But my back hurts."
He was stung by the pain.
"On the waist?" Mrs. Gardner drifted her eyes down, "Did you fall on your back?"
"I guess so," Trenton held his hand back on his waist.
Mrs. Gardner was anxious, "I'll take you to the hospital."
"Wait," Trenton pushed her away and turned around to look at Jared and Amber in the lounge. He said in a sorrowful tone, "Mr. Farrell, I can let it pass, but she still owes me and Makayla an apology, right?" Amber's eyebrows shoot up and opened her mouth to say something.
Jared cut in, "Did your daughter apologize to Amber? Did Makenna apologize to Amber for what she did to Amber? So, how can you ask Amber to apologize?"
"You..." Trenton choked, and after a moment, he dismissed with a flip of his hand. "Fine, I'll never win."
He sneered and put his gaze on Amber's face. "Amber, you'd better cling to Mr. Farrell and let him shelter you for the rest of your life, or you'll be doomed. Let's go!" He turned around and take Mrs. Gardner and Makayla away with him.
Makayla gave a meaningful glance at Jared before she left with Trenton and Mrs. Gardner.
But within a few steps, two people stopped them. They were Toby and his wife.
Toby stared at Trenton with scarlet eyes. "Mr. Cohen told us the test results. She became your biological daughter out of nowhere. You have to compensate us, right?" "That's right!" Toby's wife echoed.
Jared returned to Amber's side, "I bet it's Hayden's trick. He wants to use Toby as a weapon against Trenton."
Amber nodded, "I know. This is so Hayden."
Judy was Trenton's biological daughter, and they couldn't change the fact. Their plan failed.
But even if it failed, Hayden had to bring shit into Trenton's life.
That was why Toby and his wide were here.
"Compensation?" Trenton contorted his face into an odd expression, "I got a bone to pick with you when you helped Hayden. How dare you ask me for compensation?"
"Why shouldn't we do that?" Toby said brutally, "Judy is raised by us for more than twenty years. You had to pay me for my child support, right? She isn't our biological daughter but lived in our two families. Maybe our biological daughters had been missing. We don't know if she is still in this world. Aren't you responsible for it?"
Toby's wife sobbed. "Oh, where's my Judy? Such a poor girl. Someone swapped you with this bastard! Oh, I miss you so much!"
Makayla's eyes flashed a hint of disgust when the couple acted like they missed their daughter so much.
They had never shown her a single bit of love when she was at home.
Now they pretended to love her for money. It couldn't be more shameless!
"How dare you say my daughter is a bastard?" Mrs. Gardner's eyes flared with anger.
Toby and his wife got Hayden's back, they weren't afraid of these rich people. The woman held her head up high and look defiantly at Mrs. Gardner, "What? Am I wrong? She is not my daughter but lives in my home. I can't think of a better word for that."
"You..." Mrs. Gardner's eyes brimmed with tears and she made threatening gestures.
The woman patted her face defiantly, "Come on! Hit right here! I'll sue you out of the house if you dare to touch my face!"
"Mom, ignore her," Makayla grabbed Mrs. Gardner's hand, "Don't bother yourself with this kind of person. If you just become more resentful, they'll get nuttier."
"You bastard, how dare you to say that about your mother..."
"That's enough!" Trenton cupped his fist and bellowed.
He had been the chairman of the board for decades, so he still had a forceful vibe.
Toby's wife was struck dumb by his intimidating vibe.
Trenton looked at Toby with gloomy eyes, "Alright, how about one hundred thousand?"
"One hundred thousand?" Toby said with contempt, "Do you think I'm a beggar? At least ten times of that!"
If he hadn't received two hundred thousand from Hayden, Toby would have felt it was a lot. It would have taken his family years to earn a hundred thousand.
Toby had dug up a bit about these rich people. A million was nothing to them.
However, Trenton screwed up his face, "A million? Why don't you just rob the bank? One hundred thousand, take it or leave it!"
"No, it must be a million." Toby's wife stepped forward.
Toby nodded, "I will not take a cent less. I know you have it! I won't let you get away with it if you refused. You will see me at your company, house, everywhere. I know rich people care about their reputation. I will tell everyone that your family is a bunch of dead beats."
"Toby Lashley is quite clever," Jared witnessed the farce and commented.
Amber turned her head to face him, "How?"
Jared put his hands in his trouser pockets and laughed lightly. "As Toby said, Trenton cares about his reputation, so he has to give them the money today."
"Don't jump to the conclusion so fast. Remember, Toby is just an ordinary man, so Trenton may break his promise and have them disappear from this world."
"That being said, but we are not here, right?" Jared's eyes gleamed with wisdom, "We saw this. Even if Trenton wants to kill Toby, he wouldn't do that. Once Toby or his wife is dead, he can't run. So, he has to give them money sooner or later."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
