Chapter 16 Faking the Video
Makenna could no longer maintain the smile on her face. She lowered her head and tears streamed
down her face.
Jared frowned slightly and was displeased with his grandmother’s behavior, “Makenna also has good
intentions and is mindful of your health. She is the woman I like, so if you are angry with me in your
heart, just take it out on me.”
Lady Georgia remained impassive and didn’t reply.
Jared took Makenna’s hand and stood up, but to Lady Georgia he said, “It’s late, and you should rest.
We’ll leave you to it.”
The two men stayed for less than ten minutes before leaving.
Mrs. Murphy went up to Lady Georgia and sighed, “My Lady, why bother? You don’t need to be angry
with Mr. Farrell over someone else.”

Jared is going against me for her.”
Mrs. Murphy tucked her in, “How could that be? Mr. Farrell has the utmost respect for you.”
Lady Georgia smiled but didn’t say anything.
Unbeknownst to all but a few senior members of the board of Goldstone Co., Amber had become the
biggest shareholder and, with the power to make decisions, she decisively reached a partnership with
Hayden.
Hayden was a dark horse in the business, and although he wasn’t as successful as Jared now, he
wasn’t far behind and had a bright future ahead of him.
With Jeremy and Cole at her side, things were looking up.
But what Cole predicted finally happened.
Images of the blue Audi hitting Makenna were all over the news, and the comments underneath were
all cursing Amber for her viciousness.
Makenna became the victim, and Jared became the one being tricked by Amber.
The tide was turning fast, and as it continued, the police should be at the door.
Someone from the board of directors of the Goldstone Co. quickly called Amber to say that the
influence was huge and that if she didn’t deal with it soon, it could affect the company’s benefits.
Cole snickered, “A bunch of cunning old foxes! How could Amber affect the company’s benefits when it
wasn’t even announced that she is a shareholder? They’re all just threatening her and trying to step
over her.”
Jeremy, who had been staring at the footage posted online, furrowed his brows, “A professional would
know at a glance that the video was edited. The problem is that the public opinion is so overwhelming
that the people’s eyes are clouded.”
Thinking that Jared was shameless enough to put out the forged video, Cole taunted, “Amber, you do
have a bad taste. How did you fall for such a nasty guy? I think he and Makenna were made for each
other. Both of them are bitches.”

Cole thought that his words had irritated her, and suddenly rubbed his nose sheepishly, “Ahem … I
didn’t mean to taunt you. I’m just glad you woke up early, and thankfully, we were prepared and got the
video footage from six years ago in advance.”
Amber looked up, met Jeremy’s worried face, and then smiled, “Jared could even divorce me for
Makenna. What else can’t he do? I’m not surprised.”
Cole suddenly got excited, “We have the real footage anyway. Why don’t we send it out right now to
clear things up and embarrass them!”
“Wait.” Amber had other plans and raised an eyebrow towards Cole, “Tomorrow is the 1st. I heard you
say earlier that the Gardner family is throwing a party for Makenna to celebrate her recovery, is that
right?”
“Yeah, you’re going?”
She smiled, “Not only am I going, but I’m bringing over a big present.”
Cole and Jeremy looked at each other for a few seconds, and smiled knowingly.
