Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber)
Chapter 544 Talk to Cole

When these words came out, Bernardo and the others were so angry that their faces turned red, but they were helpless.

After all, what she said was true. She was the biggest shareholder. Even though she was currently in the position of managing director, she still had more privileges than them. No matter how dissatisfied they were, they had to hold it in.

Amber looked at Bernardo's ugly expression and sneered in her heart.

Want to pick a fight with her? How naive!

Amber coldly retracted her gaze and then looked at Cole who was not far away.

Cole lowered his head. She was unable to see the expression on his face.

However, Amber could feel that he was not in a good state. She could not help but sigh. Then, she pulled out a chair and sat down. "Alright, let's start the meeting."

"Okay." Everyone responded and opened the information in front of them.

The meeting lasted for two hours before it came to an end.

Bernardo took the lead and left with his men.

However, Amber sat in her seat and did not move. She had no intention of packing up and leaving.

She leaned against the back of the chair, her eyes fixed on Cole.

At this time, Cole was packing up his things. After packing up, he stood up and was about to leave.

"Cole, wait." Amber hurriedly stopped him.

Cole stopped in his tracks and turned to look at her. His face was no longer the usual smile he had when he faced her. There was only a calm expression on his face. "What's the matter?" he asked. As expected, he kept his promise and no longer called her baby.

If it was in the past, he would definitely add the word 'baby' in front of this question.

"How about we talk?" Amber stood up.

"What do you want to talk about?" Cole looked at her and asked.

Amber did not answer immediately. Instead, she looked at the other people in the conference room who had not yet finished leaving. They were standing up and preparing to eavesdrop on their gossip. The few people noticed Amber's gaze and immediately lowered their heads guiltily. Then, they quickened their steps and left.

Soon, only Amber and Cole were left in the huge conference room.

"Cole, are you still fussing over what happened last night?" Amber looked at him.

Cole's mouth moved, but he did not say a word.

Because he was indeed still upset about what happened last night.

This fuss was not only because he knew that she would not choose him.

At the same time, he was also angry at her decision.

Even if it was impossible for them to be together, they were still friends for more than twenty years.

However, just because of Jared's words, she had rejected the way he had addressed her for over twenty years.

How could he not care about this?

Amber looked at the sadness on Cole's face and couldn't help but sigh. "I'm sorry, Cole. I also know that I was inconsiderate last night. I didn't think it through and said those things to you, but I don't think that I was wrong. Cole, you like me, right?"

"How did you... know?" Cole stared at her in disbelief.

He had liked her for more than ten years. He had already been in her heart.

He had wanted to confess to her countless times, but because he lacked courage, he had never said his feelings out.

But he had never expected that she would actually discover it herself.

Amber lowered her eyes. "I actually didn't know, but after you told me those things last night, I knew. Otherwise, your reaction wouldn't have been so big. That's why I said that I didn't do anything wrong. Because I don't like you, I can't love you back. So what I can do is to put an end to your feelings for me and make you not fall deeper and deeper. Otherwise, you will be hurt and I will be guilty."

"No..."

"It will happen!" Amber cut him off. "I don't know when you fell in love with me, but I can be sure that it has been a long time. Since you haven't let go of this relationship for so long, it is enough to show that you value this relationship very much. If it goes on for a long time, you will only be more and more unable to let go. In the end, you will be covered in injuries. Cole, I don't want to see you like that. You are my best friend, and the only person I don't want to hurt is you. So I really hope that you can let go of your feelings for me. And that starts from changing your way of addressing me."

If she didn't let him call her baby, it was enough to show him her determination and that it was impossible for her to be with him.

So, she hoped that he could understand this point and then let go of this hopeless relationship.

Cole naturally understood what Amber wanted to say.

He clenched his fists and looked at her with red eyes. "So you are warning me not to call you by that name, and not to do intimate actions to you, and not to think about you, right?"

"This is not a warning. I will not warn my friends. I am just trying not to hurt you. Because I don't love you, I just treat you as a friend, so we are destined to not be together. I am telling you clearly to let you understand that we are impossible so that you can stop hurting yourself."

What she said was a little hurtful.

But in order to make him wake up as soon as possible and let go of this relationship.

She could only be a little more direct.

When Cole heard Amber's cold words, his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. It was so painful that he could not breathe. "So, do you want to leave me?"

"I never meant that. I just think we should only be friends and nothing else," Amber replied.

Cole lowered his head and smiled bitterly, "I know what you mean. You want me to stop loving you."

"Yes." Amber nodded.

"Alright, I understand. I will put away this feeling and not ask for anything else. As for being friends... I'm sorry, I might not be able to be friends with you before I completely get over you." After he finished speaking, he turned around and left in self-mockery.

How sad.

The girl he had loved for more than ten years asked him to give up before he could confess to her.

The relationship was snuffed before it even started.

Amber looked at Cole's back and opened her mouth, as if she wanted to stop him, but in the end, she endured it.

She could stop him.

It would make him feel that she was a little reluctant to part with him, and then let him have hope again.

No, she couldn't do so.

They couldn't be together. The injury at this time was only temporary, and it was the best for him.

If she kept him hanging there, it would be the real harm to him.

And what Cole said at the end was also right. Before he completely let her go, they could not be friends.

They wouldn't be as intimate as before, and there would only be awkwardness when they met.

So it was better to wait until he completely let go of her and when his heart was relieved, then they could get along with each other calmly.

Thinking of this, Amber closed her eyes and took a long breath.

"Ms. Reed, what happened to Mr. Lyon? Just now, I saw Mr. Lyon go out with red eyes. He seemed to have cried. He..."

"Go to him." Amber squeezed out a smile.

"What?" Sheila was stunned.

"Yes, I just said a lot to Cole. He is not feeling well now, so I am very worried about him like this. Go to him. Don't let him do anything stupid. Talk to him." Amber rubbed the space between her eyebrows and replied.

"But..."

"Don't say but. Hurry up and go. You won't be able to catch up with him in a while. It's dangerous for him to drive right now." Amber interrupted Sheila and waved her hand to urge her.
