Chapter 324 Do the Abortion Now
Upon hearing her disgusted tone, Jared paused and stood motionlessly.
Amber held her head, feeling highly uneasy.
It was Jared!
The man that night turned out to be Jared!
How could it be possible?
When she woke up that morning, she saw another man, not Jared.
Amber was unwilling to believe what Jared said. She looked around and saw her phone on the nightstand. As if she had grasped a life-saving straw, she grabbed it, tabbed the messenger App, found the name “Z”, and started an audio call.
Soon, Jared’s phone in his trousers pocket rang, which was the exact ringtone of an audio call.
For a moment, Amber felt that her world had collapsed. The phone slid from her hands and smashed on her quilt.
It was him! It turned out to be him for real!
Amber couldn’t deceive herself any longer. The man that night was really Jared.
She pinched the quilt tightly, looked at Jared with her reddish eyes, and said in anger, “Why did you lie to me? Have you got your kicks from making fun of me?”
“I didn’t…”
Amber interrupted him excitedly, “Do you want to tell me you didn’t do it on purpose? ”
She sneered ironically and said, “I was drunk that night, but you weren’t, were you? You knew it was me that night, but you didn’t tell me. Instead, you used the nickname “Z” to contact me. Whenever I thanked you for helping me, you must be mocking me at my back. You are amused at how stupid I am, and I don’t know you are Z.”
Jared frowned deeply. “I admit I’ve hidden my identity to contact you, but I’ve never lied to you or mocked you. Z is also short for my name. As you know, I have another name, Zackary.”
From the beginning to the end, he contacted her with his real name.
She just didn’t recognize him.
Amber laughed out in anger. “Who could’ve guessed Z stood for Zachary because of a single letter?”
Besides, only when she found out Jared was Zack did she know he had another name, Zackary.
Hence, even if she could figure out Z stood for Zackary, she had no idea that Zackary was Jared.
Jared was tongue-tied.
Her words made sense. It wasn’t easy to figure out Z meant Zachary.
Elias, standing aside to watch the fun in silence, looked at Jared and then at Amber and pushed up his glasses.
It seemed that he had made trouble by telling Amber that her baby’s father was Jared.
Amber pinched her palms and curled up her lips into a smile of self-mockery. “No wonder Makenna Gardner tried so hard to get rid of my baby. Turned out she had known you were the baby’s father already.”
Jared frown. “Did Makenna know I was the baby’s father?”
How could it be possible?
How did Makenna know it?
He didn’t tell Makenna about his one-night-stand with Amber. Hence, he wondered how Makenna managed to know it.
“Amber is correct. Makenna knew it indeed. I’m the witness. Also, I’ve known it long ago. Makenna told me about it,” Elias chimed in. He pulled out a scalpel from the pocket of his white gown and played with it.
“Also, Hayden Cohen.” Amber looked more ironic. “When you contacted me with the nickname Z, you said you were Hayden Cohen’s friend. Later, I asked him if he knew you, but he said he wasn’t close to you, so I believed him without any hesitation. Only now I’ve found I’m the most stupid one in this world. You all played tricks on me. All people knew I was pregnant with your baby, but I didn’t know it. How ridiculous!”
Amber sneered while shedding tears, feeling quite upset.
After that night, she asked Hayden to check the nightclub’s surveillance video, but the latte told her he couldn’t find anything on the surveillance.
Now, she realized that he must have seen something, but he told her so purposely so he could cover for Jared. Then she wouldn’t know it was Jared that night.
How ironic!
She had taken Hayden as her friend, but he lied to her.
Looking at Amber’s disappointing face, Jared felt frustrated as well.
He reached out and wanted to wipe her tears, but Amber patted his hand off coldly.
Jared looked down at his reddened hand, and his eyes darkened. “Amber, we didn’t tell you because…”Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
“Because you were afraid that I would pester you after knowing the true, right?” Amber glared at him coldly. “Then it’ll impact the relationship and marriage between you and Makenna.”
Jared was taken aback. He couldn’t utter any word at all.
She told the truth.
Right then, he was still hypnotized, so he entirely focused on Makenna. Hence, that was what was in his mind.
Amber laughed, tears streaming down. “You know what, Jared Farrell. I didn’t hate Z. For real. It wasn’t all his fault that night. I made a mistake too. For me, he was just a stranger. We had sex, and I took it as a one night stand, no big deal. However, it’s different now.”
She poked Jared’s chest with her finger. “You are my ex-husband. You had never laid a finger on me after we married for six years. Before we divorced, you hooked up with Makenna and trampled on your legitimate wife’s dignity over and over. Since you loved each other so much, I was willing to divorce you to make your wish come true. However, after the divorce, you cheated on her with me. Jared Farrell, you are so fucking disgusting!”
She was drunk that night, but Jared wasn’t. He could recognize her, but he still slept with her.
It meant he had done it purposely.
Amber had thought that the man that night was a stranger, so after Z helped her several times, she forgave him. She was even grateful as Z had helped her again and again.
She had never expected Z to be Jared.
“I’m sorry,” Jared lowered his head and apologized.
He didn’t know what else he could speak besides making an apology.
At that time, he was still hypnotized. What he had done was despicable and evil. Hence, no matter what he said would be useless.
Amber ignored his apology. She took a deep breath and looked over at Elias. “Please arrange the abortion for me ASAP. I want to abort the baby.”
Elias raised his eyebrows and nodded. “Of course. I’ll arrange it now.”
“Thanks.” Amber bowed at him.
Jared frowned at her. “Amber…”
“Why? Do you want to stop it?” Amber said with a sneer, “It’s too late, unfortunately. The baby has been poisoned. Even if not, I wouldn’t keep it. Why should I? I don’t want it to become an illegitimate child who lives in the dark without love from the mother and recognition from the father.”
“It’s not an illegitimate child. I will recognize it,” Jared hurried to correct her words.
Amber snorted. “Haven’t you done it? When you were still Z, I asked you about your opinion on this child. You said if I chose to give birth, you would be in charge of the alimony to help me raise this child in secret. You said in secret. Evidently, you didn’t want to recognize the baby or take it in, did you?”
Jared’s heart tightened as if a hand was gripping it fiercely.
His Adam’s apple bobbed. He answered hoarsely, “I did plan so at that time because I hadn’t realized I loved you. When I realized it, I gave up that idea already. I always wanted to tell you I was the baby’s father, I would recognize it, and I would love him dearly, but I couldn’t find a decent chance.”
“So what? Your baby will be gone soon.” Amber smiled at him ironically.
