Chapter 240 I Stopped Loving You A Long Time Ago
Not being arrogant as usual, Trenton wiped the spit off his face, and said in a trembling voice, “Sir, I didn’t hit you. It was you who came over and hit me.”
The big man’s eyes widened. “I hit you? That’s bullshit! How did I hit you? It was you who hit me and you didn’t admit it. Shameless old bastard. You need some education.”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and smacked him in the face.
It was the first time that Trenton had been slapped in his life. He was stunned and could not come to his senses for a long time.
By the time he came to his senses, the burly man was no longer there.
He was so angry and shame that he trembled all over.
He had already memorized that man’s face. After he was done with the group’s business, he would go to Jared to get the surveillance footage. He will catch that big man and torture him to death to vent his hate!
Finally, he got in the car with gloomy eyes.
Not long after he left, the big man came out of the corner, and there was another person behind him.
“Mr. Cohen, this is the hair you wanted.” The burly man handed over a few strands of hair wrapped in paper with both hands. He looked so humble, completely different from the ferocity he had shown in front of Trenton.
Hayden took the hair with satisfaction and gave him a check. “Well done, thank you.”
“It’s ok. Just tell me if you want me to do such things next time, I promise I’ll get it well done.” The man put away the check and patted his chest.
Hayden smiled. “Don’t worry. I won’t forget you. Go ahead.”
“See ya.”
After the man left, Hayden looked at the place where Trenton had just been beaten, sneered, and walked toward the elevator.
He didn’t expect to see Trenton’s car in the parking lot, so he called a hooligan to help him put on a show and got Trenton’s hair smoothly in the end.
He found it funny that Trenton looked like a coward in front of the hooligan just now.
“It’s you!” When Jared saw Hayden come in, he suddenly remembered the scene of him sending Amber back to Kelsington Bay last night, and looked a little unhappy.
Hayden noticed that and touched his nose. “Jared, what’s wrong? Did I offend you? Why put on a long face? You look like I’ve stolen your things.”
Jared pursed his lips and asked, “What’s the matter?”
“Didn’t we agree on signing the contract for the new project last time?” Hayden pulled out a chair and sat down.
Jared opened the drawer, took out a document, and threw it in front of him. “Sign it, and get lost.”
Hayden raised his eyebrows and said, “Oh, why are you in such a hurry to drive me away? Are you in a hurry to date Makenna?”
Hearing this, Jared’s mood dropped even lower and he looked at him coldly.
He quickly made a gesture of surrender. “Okay, okay, forget it.”
He lowered his head and quickly signed, but he felt something was wrong.
If he wasn’t mistaken, Jared seemed to dislike being mentioned together with Makenna.
Why?
Without asking more questions, Hayden signed and handed over the document. “Done.”
Jared took it and signed his name.
The contract shall come into effect.
Hayden’s purpose of coming here was achieved, so he didn’t stay any longer. After drinking a cup of coffee, he left.
As soon as he walked out of Jared’s office, he saw Ben coming over with a doctor in a white gown.
Hayden was not surprised. After all, Jared had just been discharged from the hospital and his injuries had not recovered yet. It was normal for a doctor to examine his injuries at any time.
However, when he passed by the doctor, Hayden inadvertently glanced and saw the name tag on the doctor’s chest: Doctor of Psychology.
He whistled in his heart.
It seemed that he had discovered something extraordinary.
In the elevator, Hayden took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Amber.
Hayden: You arrived yet?
Amber was reading a document when she heard her phone ring. She took a look and immediately replied: I’ve arrived early.
Hayden smiled and typed: Let me tell you something. Jared may be in a bad mood. He is seeing a shrink.
“A shrink?” Amber narrowed her eyes as she continued typing.
Amber: Why are you sure it’s him, not Makenna? Don’t forget that Makenna has “split personalities”.
She deliberately added quotation marks on the word “split personality”, for satirical purpose surely.
Hayden sent a voice message directly this time. “I’ve seen Makenna’s psychologist before. It’s not whom I saw this time, so I’m sure that Jared is seeing a psychologist himself.”
“Really? Ok. There’s no need to tell me about this. I’m busy.” Amber also replied with a voice message.
What the hell? Why was everybody telling her things about recently? What happened to Jared had nothing to do with her.
She was not the same as before, who used to be so concerned with him.
Hayden smiled and said, “Okay, okay, I won’t talk about it anymore. I thought you were still holding on to it, so…”
“Stop!” Amber interrupted him with a cold expression. “I’ve said that I don’t love him anymore, so why can’t I let it go? Alright, I have work to do.”
She closed WhatsApp directly and ignored him.
But she did not continue to work. She looked at the phone with a complicated expression.
In fact, many people didn’t really believe that she could get over Jared so soon, such as Cole and Jeremy.
She knew that they pretended to believe that she didn’t love Jared any longer, but in their hearts, they still thought that she still had feelings for him. What Hayden did just now was enough to prove that in their eyes, there was no way she could forget him as soon as they divorced since she had loved Jared for so many years, right?
But it was the truth. She really had stopped loving him, not after divorce, but since a long time ago.
To be more precise, what she loved was not the aloof Jared after they got married, but the gentle and elegant Jared in white shirt before they got married.
Before getting married, she thought that she was married to her love. But the reality was unexpected. Jared, who married her, was extremely indifferent to her, not at all like the guy she thought she knew.This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Thinking of this, Amber picked up her phone again and clicked open the album. She found a photo from a private folder in the album, which was also the only photo in the folder.
The photo was a little blurry. She had secretly taken it many years ago in a hurry, which was why it was not so clear.
“Alas…”Looking at the photo, Amber suddenly sighed.
In the photo, it was a young man in a white shirt. He turned his head and found that she was secretly taking photos of him. However, instead of being annoyed, the young man smiled at her gently.
It was a love at first sight for Amber.
When she was in her freshman year of high school, Jared had already gone to college. Because of his excellence, he was invited by the school to give a speech to his alumni.
At first, she just thought that he was good-looking, so she couldn’t help snapping secret shots of him. She didn’t have any other attempt. But unexpectedly, his smile made here heart flutter. Later, she was obsessed with him, trying to learn everything about him, and she managed to married him after graduation.
