"This is also related to Jared's heart," Elias turned to Amber, "Jared had had a surgery to change his heart. Do you know that?"

"I know." Amber nodded.

In the cave, she noticed the scar on his chest when she helped Jared change his clothes.

After he woke up, she had even asked him about the scar. That's when she got to know he had congenital heart disease. That's why six years ago Jared's face often appeared quite pale and he looked quite weak. Maybe he was still recovering.

"The heart Jared is using now actually belonged to the younger brother of my schoolmate."

"What?" Amber was shocked again.

Elias continued, "His younger brother was called Martin Schafer, who used to be Makenna's boyfriend."

"Wait, boyfriend?"

"What? Did it ring any bells to you?"

Amber said in a low voice, "Yes. But I'm not sure. Six years ago, when I was still in college, I heard Makenna had a boyfriend and her relationship with him lasted about three years. But I don't know if he was the one you talked about."

"It could be," Elias narrowed his eyes. "The relationship between Martin and Makenna lasted for three years as well, and then he died in a car accident."

"Oh, then we are talking about the same person," Amber nodded. "Six years ago, when we found that she hadn't hung out with her boyfriend for a long time, we asked her whether she had broken up with her boyfriend and she said her boyfriend died. We thought she was just cursing him out of anger but I didn't expect he had really died."

Before he died, he donated his heart to Jared.

"After the car accident, Martin Schafer wasn't sent to the hospital in time so he died a few days later. Before he passed away, he agreed to give his heart to Jared after he died. And he also told his brother, my schoolmate, to help Makenna by making Jared fall in love with Makenna."

Over this, a sense of contempt flashed in Elias' eyes.

For his part, Martin was a fool who was so obsessed with love. He didn't realize that the car accident was planned and he was stupid enough to sacrifice himself for Makenna. Moreover, he even dragged his brother Mikel into this, who had no choice but to breach the work ethics because of him.

How stupid and selfish he was!

"So, your schoolmate hypnotized Jared and those around him so that Jared thought he was in love with Makenna?" Amber clenched her hand into fists and said hoarsely.

Elias nodded, "Yes, that's what happened."

"That's ridiculous!" Amber bit her lips and her body quivered with anger, "That Martin Schafer was in no position to do this. Why should Jared sacrifice himself to please Makenna? What a selfless man he was! A man who forced another man to love the girl he loved! He has hurt Jared. And he also hurt me."

Anger and agony welled up in Amber's heart. Her eyes also turned red.

And now Martin Schafer was the culprit to blame.

If it were not for Martin Schafer who asked his brother to hypnotize Jared, Jared would have known that Makenna was the fake Maple and he wouldn't have felt he loved Makenna.

Then he would replace Amber soon. They would be happy together.

All those was destroyed by Martin Schafer!

Elias stared Amber who was now seized by her sorrow and sighed, "You don't have to be angry right now. After all, Martin is dead. But I think he deserved it."

"What do you mean?" Amber said with her red eyes fixed on him.

Elias sneered coldly, "The death of Martin Schafer wasn't an accident. It was planned."

"What?" Amber covered her mouth with her hand in shock.

Elias said in a cold voice, "Jared's blood type and his health condition made it quite hard to replace a suitable heart for him. After he was born and diagnosed with heart disease, the Farrell's have been replaceing a heart for him. But they didn't manage to replace one until 24 years later. Martin Schafer's accident happened just a few days before the hospital told Jared that he would die soon. And then Martin's heart was found to be the right fit for Jared. There must be someone behind such a coincidence."

Amber's face changed instantly, "Do you mean that it was Jared or the Farrell's that planned Martin Schafer's accident? No, that's impossible. Jared and the Farrell's ..."

"No, I don't mean Jared or the Farrell's. I mean Makenna." Elias interrupted her.

Amber said with her mouth wide open, "Makenna Gardner?"

"Yes," Elias raised his jaw and said, "I don't know the details. But I've checked the records in the hospital. When the doctors said Martin would die soon, the old Mrs. Farrell went to see Martin to beg him to donate his heart to Jared. She knew that Martin's heart was suitable for Jared because Makenna told her that."

"And then what happened?" Amber urged.

"And my schoolmate told me that Martin didn't agree to donate at once. But then Makenna left him for a while and then came back to tell Martin that she saw the man who needed his heart and she fell in love with that man at the first sight. She yammered to Martin that she hoped Martin could allow her to pursue her love."

"Then, hearing how Makenna cried and begged him, Martin agreed to give his heart to Jared and then he even told his brother to hypnotize Jared!" Amber said with her face flushed with anger.

"That's ridiculous, so ridiculous!" Amber said with her hands clenched tightly, "Makenna didn't fall in love with Jared at the first sight. She had known Jared for years. And after she knew Martin's heart was suitable for Jared, she planned the accident and killed her own boyfriend!"

"Yes, and Jared also doubted that his death was not an accident and he has been investigating this case to replace if Makenna was the woman behind it. But the case happened a few years ago and there was no surveillance camera where the accident happened. So, he didn't replace any evidence to prove Makenna planned that accident."

Elias shrugged and continued, "That's why I said Martin deserved it. He was such a fool."

"Thank you for letting me know," Amber took a deep breath and calmed down.

Elias shrugged, "You don't have to thank me. It's not a secret anyway. Now you know he was hypnotized and that's why he treated you in such a bad way, so what will you do next? Forgive him?" Amber lowered his eyelids, "I've forgiven him. He is also a victim. All he did was not out of his own intention. He was just hypnotized."

Elias was surprised by her answer and said, "So, do you plan to remarry him?"

"I don't know." Amber shook her head. "I've forgiven him, but that doesn't mean that I will remarry him. I'm not ready to start a romantic relationship."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
