Chapter 217 The Banquet Began


    It was that.


    Jared raised his chin slightly.


    He misunderstood her that she was deliberately targeting Amber.


    "You''ve got a problem to fix, Jared." Trenton looked at Jared with a stern face, "Although Makenna


    hasn''t officially been engaged to you, she was announced to be your fiancée in public in thest


    engagement party ruined by Amber. You should give your fiancée a ring. Otherwise, what the others


    would think of her?"


    "Dad, please. Jared has his own palm. We shouldn''t force him." Makenna tugged at Trenton''s sleeve


    and persuaded him.


    At the same time, she looked at Jared apologetically, as if she was afraid that he would get angry, "I''m


    sorry, Jared. Don''t take my father''s words to the heart."


    "Well. Uncle is right. I should give you a ring." Jared replied indifferently.


    He indeed didn''t want to give Makenna a ring, so he made an excuse that he shall wait till they were


    married.


    He didn''t know why he didn''t want to give Makenna a ring. But what Trenton said was right. Everyone


    knew that Makenna was his fiancée. If he didn''t give her a ring, people would look down on her.


    "Really?" Makenna looked at Jared happily.


    Jared''s gaze softened when he saw how happy she was, "Really."


    He loved Makenna and he had once said that he would make her happy.


    He shouldn''t refuse to give her a ring just because he had some weird emotions rioting inside him.


    "Jared, you''re so nice." Makenna threw herself into Jared''s arms happily.


    Trenton pretended to be angry and red at her, "You abandoned your father for a ring."


    "Dad!" Makenna turned around and yelled at Trenton, while she also exchanged a nce with him


    which only the two could understand.


    In fact, they came to find Jared on purpose.


    Beforeing up, they had already found out that Jared was in No.1 room, so they put on this little


    show to make Jared agree to give her a ring in order to confirm her as his fiancée.


    Unexpectedly, everything went very smoothly.


    "Jared, shall we choose the ring tomorrow? I want a DR ring. It is not expensive, some may call it


    cheap, but I want it very much, because a man can only buy one DR ring in life." Makenna looked up at


    Jared. "Jared, is that okay?"


    When Jared heard that a man can only buy one ring in life, he frowned and wanted to reject. But when


    he saw her expectation, he finally nodded, "Okay."


    "Thank you, Jared." Makenna felt happy and hugged him tightly.


    But Jared was not happy. He just felt very annoyed.


    After a while, he gently pushed Makenna away, "Well. Let’s go to the banquet. Mr. Furnham and Mrs.


    Furnham are still waiting for us."


    "You''re right. Let''s go now." Trenton nodded.


    Although the Furnham family weren''t as powerful as the Farrell Family, they were above the Gardner


    family, so the Gardners had to respect them all the same.


    The illuminated banquet hall was filled with the cling-ng of sses, people''s talking andughter.


    Amber was looking around with a ss of juice.


    Cole came over with a te of desserts and handed it to her, "I finally got rid of Hayden. I don''t know


    what''s wrong with him recently. He''s Jared''s friend and he doesn''t go to find Jared, but always sticks


    with us. Errr."


    "Well. He doesn''t make trouble to us. Besides, he is nice and talkative. I felt happy to get along with


    him." Amber took the desserts and said with a smile.

    She did not know why Hayden always stayed with them recently.


    But she knew that Hayden was not their enemy.


    "Forget it. Let''s not talk about him anymore. Amber, what are you looking for?" Cole took a sip of his


    wine and asked.


    "I am looking for Jeremy. I haven''t seen him so far, and I only hear his voice." Amber rubbed her


    forehead and said.


    "I''m so happy to hear that you miss me so much." As soon as she finished speaking, a man''s gentle


    voice sounded behind her.


    Amber smiled in surprise. Then she quickly turned around and saw a young man less than two meters


    away from her. She took a step forward and said, "Jeremy!"


    "Yes." Jeremy nodded with a smile. Then he stretched out his arm and hugged her gently.


    Jeremy put his head on Amber''s shoulder and rubbed his head against her shoulder. He choked,


    "Amber, I miss you so much."


    Amber stroked his hair, "I miss you too. Stand up straight quickly. People are looking."


    "No. Let me hold you for a while." Jeremy tightened his hug.


    Amber only thought him as a child. She shook her head helplessly and allowed him to continue


    hugging her.


    Seeing this scene, Cole rolled his eyes.


    Jeremy was so good at acting like a poor little puppy and deceived Amber to interact with him


    intimately. He despised him very much!


    However, Cole had to admit that he envied Jeremy, who could hug Amber like this.


    If it were him, Amber would push him away.


    Cole smiled bitterly and drank up the wine.


    Not far away, when Jared, Trenton and Makenna walked into the banquet hall, they saw that Amber


    was hugging Jeremy.


    Jared felt enraged and gripped his clutch tightly.


    Jeremy came back.


    As soon as they met, Amber was being so intimate with him in public. Did she like these men to stay


    around her so much?


    Makenna turned her head and saw that Jared was jealous of Jeremy. Her face fell.


    "Jared, the person hugging Miss Reed should be Jeremy Lynch. He destroyed my party with Miss


    Reed before. I thought that he had already left Olkmore. Who could''ve expected him to be here and…


    hugging Miss Reed. But Miss Reed''s boyfriend, Mr. Lyon, is just standing by and watching them. What


    do you think about the rtionship between the three of them?"


    A vicious smile yed over Makenna''s face.


    Jared''s face turned so grim. He felt furious when seeing Amber was hugging Jeremy. He wanted to


    separate them and tell Amber not to be so close to other men.


    But he knew very well that he was in no ce to do that.


    "It has nothing to do with us." After saying, Jared looked away and walked forward.


    Makenna hurriedly followed him.


    Cole put down his empty wine ss and went forward to pull Jeremy away, "Alright, it is enough. You


    already hug Amber for so long."


    Jeremy looked at him with dissatisfaction.


    Cole said, "Don''t forget that I am now Amber''s boyfriend. What would the others think seeing you hug


    Amber like this?"


    Jeremy was stunned and scanned around. He saw that a few people were pointing at them and


    murmuring to each other. When they found that Jeremy was looking at them, they quickly turned away


    as if nothing had happened.


    However, as soon as Jeremy withdrew his gaze, people continued to talk. Their words weren''t pleasant


    to the ear. Some even said that Amber was a slut, always fooling around with different


    men.
