Chapter 78
Honey, I Don't Dare Again (Amber and Jared) novel
Chapter 78 The Garland Family Is in Trouble!
Makennaâs eyes widened slightly with disbelief.
He actually admitted it.
Heâs really pursuing Amber?
Not to mention how shocked Makenna was, but Gigi and Chloe were equally flabbergasted.
Gigi looked at Hayden as if she was looking at a fool.
1/5 Just like Hayden, Gigi was also from a powerful and noble family. Thus, she despised Hayden for taking a fancy to a divorced woman.
She felt that it was a disgrace to the offspring of powerful and noble families.
âMr. Cohen, your action is not very appropriate. Miss Reed is...â Makenna looked at Amber while biting her lips. It seemed like she was in a difficult position to say something.
Amber smiled with anger. âMiss Gardner, please continue. What is wrong with me? Your ambiguous words made it seem as if I have done something shameful. Is that what you want to tell Hayden?â
Makenna panicked, as she did not expect Amber to say her purpose out loud. Amber had caught Makenna off guard.
Makenna hurriedly shook her head and explained. âNo, that was not what I meant. I just wanted to say that Miss Reed is also Jaredâs exâwife. Mr.
Cohen, since you are Jaredâs friend, isnât it inappropriate for you to pursue Miss Reed?â
âNo, I think it is fine.â Hayden smiled, âAlthough Amber is Jaredâs exâwife, they have nothing to do with each other now.â
âBut...â Makenna wanted to say something else.
Amber interrupted her, âMiss Gardner, do you really canât bear to see me being popular?â
âI didnât... I didnât...â
âOtherwise, why are you opposing Haydenâs decision to pursue me? If you think it is inappropriate for him to hook up with his friendâs exâwife, what about you? You and I were classmates in the uni, so is it also inappropriate for you to hook up with my exâhusband?â Amber looked at her with a smirk instead of a smile.
Makennaâs face flushed with embarrassment and turned pale at the same time. She did not speak anymore.
What could she say?
No matter what she said, she would be the embarrassed one in the end.
âI assume Miss Gardner should have nothing more to say. Letâs go.â Amber said to Hayden.
Hayden looked at Amber with a smile and nodded in response.
He thought to himself, âMakenna is obviously a scheming bitch. Only Jared would be blind enough to think that she is kind and naive. How the hell can he be so oblivious?â
When Hayden and Amber were about to walk forward, Gigi suddenly called out to them, âWait a minute.â
Amber narrowed her eyes, âMiss Garland, is there anything else?â
Makenna and Chloe looked at Gigi as well.
Gigi crossed her arms and spoke with an arrogant expression. âMiss Reed, are you not going to apologize to Makenna?â
âWhat for?â Amber looked straight at her.
Gigi let out a cold snort. âYou had your suitor kidnap Makenna and caused her to be hospitalized. Shouldnât you apologize?â
âWhat? You had someone kidnap her?â Hayden raised his voice in surprise.
Amber rolled her eyes at him. âDo you think itâs possible?â
âI think itâs possible!â Hayden nodded solemnly.
The corners of Amberâs mouth twitched slightly, âGet lost!â
Hayden shrugged his shoulders and stopped talking.
Only then did Amber redirect her gaze to Makenna and Gigi. âDo you have proof?â
âMakenna said she personally heard the kidnapper reveal that it was you who did it.â Gigi replied.
Amber laughed, âMiss Garland, so you believed it. You stepped in to seek justice for Miss Gardner and made several major banks cut off Goldstoneâs loans?â
Amber initially thought Gigi had done so because of the previous poker incident.
Until Amber saw Gigi walking beside Makenna that she dismissed this conjecture. She assumed Gigiâs actions must have something to do with Makennaâs kidnapping. Now that she heard Gigi mentioning it herself, she was certain of it.
A trace of surprise flashed across Gigiâs eyes, âYou knew it?â
Makenna and Chloe were also surprised.
Amber looked at their expressions and sneered. âThe only way to prevent people from knowing is not to do it.â
Gigi regained her composure. âEven if you knew, it does not matter. Goldstone is going to be doomed.â
âIs that so?â Amber tilted her head, âMiss Garland, you are willing to personally deal with me for the sake of Miss Gardner. This friendship really touches me. However, do you really think that Goldstone is collapsing? I donât think so. Instead, I think the Garland family is going down.â
For a moment, Gigiâs pupils constricted. However, she quickly regained her composure. âMiss Reed, are you joking?â
âShe is not just joking but is deliberately teasing us. Who is she to decide the future of the Garland family!â Chloe said with a face of contempt.
Makenna also looked at Amber with disapproval. âMiss Reed, you canât simply say something like that.â
âI do not think she is talking nonsense.â Hayden suddenly spoke. He eyed Amber knowingly.
The certainty of Amberâs tone made him realize that she was being serious.
The Garland family might really be in trouble. It was just that Hayden did not know where Amber got the information from.
âHayden, do you also think she is telling the truth?â Gigi pointed at Amber and looked at Hayden with dissatisfaction.
When Hayden was about to speak, Amber spoke first, âWhether it is true or not, you guys soon know. I just hope that you guys can still continue your friendship at that time.â
will After saying that, Amber smiled mockingly and gestured for Hayden to take her Her foot hurt so much that it almost went numb.
Makenna and the other two women did not stop them anymore.
Gigi lowered her head and pondered something.
away.
Chloe held Makennaâs arm and looked at the Hayden and Amberâs backs. âHmph, no matter how serious she was, who would believe her?â
âAlright, stop talking anymore. Miss Reed was probably just too angry because of what happened to her company. That is why...â
Before she finished her words, the sudden ringing of the phone interrupted her.
When Gigi heard her phone ring, she somehow felt a little uneasy.
She took her phone out. When she saw the caller ID on it, her heart stuttered.
âMom, what can I do for you?â
âGigi, where are you? Are you still in Olkmore City?â A womanâs anxious voice came over the phone.
The uneasiness in Gigiâs heart grew even thicker. âYes, what is wrong?â
âHow dare you still ask what is wrong?â The woman burst into tears at once. There was a hint of angry accusation in her sobs. âYou have caused big trouble. We received a report that a child of our family meddled in the political affairs of another city. Your father has been taken away by the discipline inspection. Your eldest uncle and the others have gotten suspended for a thorough investigation.â
âWhat?â Gigiâs expression changed greatly. Her hands and feet went cold. The words that Amber had just said reverberated in her mind instantly, and her body trembled.
It is true!
The Garland family is really in trouble!â
âGigi, I am telling you, if the Garland family really fell apart, donât blame us for disowning your as a daughter. The woman hung up the phone after speaking.
Gigi held her phone in a dumbfounded manner. Her mind was blank.
Makenna and Chloe looked at each other.
Makenna asked softly with concern, âMiss Garland, what is wrong with you?â
When Gigi heard Makennaâs voice, she finally returned to her senses. She remembered that the Garland family was in trouble because she had helped Makenna teach Amber a lesson.
For a moment, Gigi put all the blame on Makenna and said fiercely, âMakenna, youâd better hope that nothing happens to the Garland family.
Otherwise, Iâll never go easy on you!â
After saying that, Gigi shoved Makenna out of the way and quickly left the hospital.
Gigi had to rush back to South Riverside immediately and apologize to her grandfather and Honey, I Don't Dare Again (Amber and Jared) novel ï¤Chapter 77 Marry Ex's Uncle After Divorcement ï¤Chapter 828 the others.
Otherwise, she would really be doomed.
âMakenna, what should we do? Amber was right. The Garland family is really in trouble.â Chloe was shocked by the development of things, so she hurriedly asked Makenna.
Since Makennaâs shoulder hurt from the impact, she rubbed it. She bit her lip and lowered her head. She concealed her uneasiness and panic and did not answer.
