Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 576 A Talk with Elias
Next day morning, Amber received a phone call from Elias Lansdale.
She had been taking medicine to cure her womb since she was poisoned by Jeremy.
She had undergone several courses of treatment and Elias had told her that now the medicine she should take must be changed. "Alright. I'll be there at noon," Amber said to Elias and put down her phone. Then she left her home and headed to Goldstone. "Ms. Reed," Sheila Dawson was waiting before Amber's office. Seeing her coming out of the elevator, "Welcome back!"
Amber smiled to her warmly, "Thank you."
Sheila opened the door for her and did a "welcome" gesture.
Before Amber entered the office, she saw something and stopped. With her eyes fixed on Sheila, she said with concern, "You look tired. Didn't you rest well these days?" Sheila rubbed her face and a sense of tiredness flashed in her eyes. She twitched her mouth and said, "Thank you, Ms. Reed. Something happened and I didn't sleep well." "Do you need my help?" Amber asked again.
Sheila shook her head, "No, thanks, Ms. Reed. I can handle this."
The thing between she and Cole shouldn't be known to Ms. Reed.
Noticing Sheila's attitude, Amber didn't ask more and nodded, "Okay. If you need me, just let me know."
"Thank you, Ms. Reed." Sheila smiled gratefully.
Amber entered her office.
Sheila followed her while reporting the tasks to do today.
When hearing that she should go to the Farrell Group for a new energy meeting, she was stunned.
"You said to Farrell Group for a new energy meeting?" Amber raised her eyebrows and asked with concern.
Sheila pushed her glasses up her nose, "Yes, Ms. Reed."
Amber twitched her mouth, "Now I see why he said that."
Maybe he had already arranged that meeting by then.
"What do you mean, Ms. Reed?" Sheila had no idea what was in Amber's mind. Hearing her word, she felt quite confused.
Amber rubbed her temple, "Nothing. Do you know the subject of the meeting?"
"Yes, Ms. Reed," Sheila showed a page in the file she held to her, "The new energy technology had been under trial for a while, so the purpose of the meeting is to have a discussion about the advantages and disadvantages of new energy found in the trial and to see if there are any improvements needed. If there was none, then the technology will come into the market.
"Really?" Amber raised her jaw and took the file to have a check.
Then she gave it back to Sheila, "Okay, got it. Please collect the advice or feedback from our men on the trial of the new energy technology. Organize them in a file and send it to me." "Copy that, Ms. Reed," Sheila took the file and left.
Before the lunch break, she handed the file to Amber.
Amber put the file into the folder and then pick up her bag and left Goldstone. She headed towards the hospital to fetch her medicine.
Then she would attend the meeting at 2:00 p.m.
After she arrived at Primary Medical Center, Amber headed towards Elias' office directly.
Elias was sitting behind his desk, writing something.
Amber knocked on the door.
Hearing the sound, Elias stopped and looked up at her. Then he smiled, "Come in."
As Amber entered, Elias put down the pen in hand and asked, "Did you have lunch?"
"I grabbed something on my car."
"Then I will buy you a meal in our cafeteria. The food here are pretty good." Elias pulled his drawer open and took out his work ID badge.
Amber shook her head, "No need, thanks. I'm not hungry right now and I have a meeting to attend later. So, maybe I should leave right after I get my medicine."
Hearing her words, Elias had no choice but to put the card into his pocket, "Okay. I'll take you to Obs and Gynae then. You should have an examination there first to decide which medicine you should take from
now on."
Amber nodded and then followed him.
On their way, something occurred to Amber's mind. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "You also know how to hypnotize others, right? So could you tell me whether hypnosis could affect one's memory?"
"Why are you asking?" Elias turned to her.
Amber didn't hide the truth from him, "Jared told me yesterday that, six years ago, he actually found that Makenna was an imposter, but before he could expose her lie, he was hypnotized, so he forgot the truth he discovered. And the hypnosis had even affected his memory for as long as six years. Thus, he didn't know that I was the one he had been looking for."
Elias pushed his glasses up his nose and said, "I know what you mean. You want to know whether you can believe him or not, don't you?"
Amber nodded, "Exactly. What he said was quite bizarre to me. I know you can hypnotize others. So, you can tell if he was speaking the truth."
"Indeed."
"Then..."
"What he said is true."
Amber was stunned.
Elias turned to look at her, "Jared has told you the truth. He was hypnotized and the one who did it to him is a schoolmate of mine back in uni."
Amber said with her eyes wide open, "Your schoolmate?"
"Right," Elias nodded, "I didn't know this until two months ago. When the car accident happened to him, Jared began to realize something was wrong about his brain and he asked me to do some examination on him. Then I know he was hypnotized by my schoolmate."
"It's incredible!" Amber was goggle-eyed.
She didn't think that Elias was helping Jared to fool her.
They were not enemies. Besides, Elias was someone Jared tried not to offend, because maybe he would need Elias' help someday.
Unliked other people who always spoke and behaved carefully in the face of Jared, Elias always treated Jared as someone of equal status with him.
In other words, Elias didn't have to do anything required by Jared.
Elias was not the type of person who could be bribed. He himself was rich enough anyway.
So, Elias didn't have to help Jared to lie to her.
Over this, Amber took a deep breath and asked, "What's the relationship between Makenna and your schoolmate? Why did he help her?"
