Chapter 515 - Obsessed
Chapter 515 – Obsessed
After giving the hateful woman a reality check, the guard closed the gates, leaving her abandoned on the street. Fortunately for Amber, the manor was in a secluded area and not many people were around her. Otherwise, she did not know how she would put up with her humiliation and distress.
Amber was lost. All her plans had gone down the drain, and now she was reduced to pennies. Her excitement died the moment she was shown out of the gate. But she was still not convinced. Even after being berated by the guard and the old woman she had met for the first, she was still unconvinced. Her delusional mind started to run wild, and she suddenly had a hunch that it was all a ploy devised by the girl she so badly wanted to kill.
'Is this all her plan? Did she hire these two to stop me from entering the manor?' She wondered and took a look at the beautiful house in front of her. Though it was completely different from Joshua's style and preference, it still screamed of money and aristocracy. All Amber could think about was owning the manor and becoming the Madam of the place with servants at her beck and call.
However, her impossible dream shattered to pieces when her phone rang, and even if she did not want to answer the person, she could not ignore the man who right now held authority over her.
"Did you meet Joshua?" Jared's voice fell on her ears and she shivered lightly. She could already imagine how deadly his face would become once he learned the truth. But she did not have the intention of hiding anything from him either as she needed his help desperately. Her rival was too smart and strong, and she needed a strong backer to deal with her.
"No, I could not." Amber let a pitiful sigh at the end to evoke the man's sympathy. However, she had completely underestimated the monster she was dealing with. The man never once cared for anyone woman, other than Maggie. But after being betrayed by Maggie, he now trusted no woman. To him, women were just toys he used for his pleasure and his gain. Once his work with them was over, all he did was dispose their bodies off, leaving them for the scavengers to feed.
"Why didn't you?" Jared's patience was wearing thin. Amber had been testing his sanity since the time he had brought her back, and until now, she had been successful in only foiling his plans. She had not even spoken to the man she claimed to be in love with, let alone destroy his sweet relationship with his girlfriend. He now realized why Joshua might have left Amber even though the girl had told him that it was the other way round.
Amber was seriously sick in the head and utterly useless. 'Should I just discard her now that she is of no use to me? I am just wasting resources on her. I might as well invest in other plans that could provide me with sure shot results.' He wondered, his brows narrowing in deep concentration.
But he shook his head at once. 'On a second note, Amber's persistence might help me. She is a lunatic, and she will not let go of Joshua until she gets what she wants. Let me entertain her for a few more days. If I don't get any result, then I can eliminate her any time I want.'
Jared was so lost in his thoughts that he had not heard a word Amber had said. All he could hear was the girl's high pitched voice that was slowly giving him a headache. He was already under a lot of stress recently, and Amber was only adding more to it. "Amber, will you stop speaking?" His voice was barely audible over the phone and Amber's complaints. But the girl detected the change at once, and she stopped speaking.
"Since you could not meet Joshua today, return home. We can always find another opportunity to force you to him." Amber was too infuriated to listen to the words he had used for her. She just shook her head as she eyed the guard who had returned to the gate to keep an eye on her.
"No way. I am sure Joshua is at the mansion. I need to meet him. Time delayed is time lost. What if that bitch fills Joshua's mind with words against me and forces him to leave me forever? No way."
The guard of the manor was quite close to her, and as soon as he heard the words, chills ran down his spine. Coupled with her lunatically terrifying face, he could more or less guess how obsessed she was with the man named Joshua, and he shook his head in fear. This was the first time he was meeting a girl this obsessed with someone that he was now scared for the man. 'Although I don't know who you are, I will pray for you. Just don't get caught by her. Otherwise, you are in some serious trouble.'
Amber gave him a blind eye and walked away from him before she continued to discuss matters with Jared. "I will never allow her to separate us. I need to stop her before she sows discord between us and ends our relationship forever." Amber gritted her teeth, and Jared did not know whether to laugh or cry.
'Did they even have any relationship in the first place to think that Ivy is forcing them apart? How delusional!!' Although he realized that Amber was only dreaming, he did nothing to burst her bubble.
Jared needed people like her, delusional and crazy. Delusional people could to any extent to get what they wanted, and Jared wanted to see how far she would go for Joshua. He wanted to see her limits and push her to the ultimate. In this evil game he was playing, either Amber would be destroyed or Joshua would be destroyed, and Jared would have to do nothing. 'It is not a loss for me anyway.' He thought inwardly and let out a wicked smile.
"What are you going to do then?" Jared raised an eyebrow and twirled his pen in his hand, wondering what plan the girl had come up with.
"I am thinking of sneaking inside the mansion. I am sure I can do it given my skills." Amber said confidently, and Jared did not doubt her. Before he brought her back to the city, the girl had become a burglar, robbing food and money from people's homes. If she still had the skills in her, she might be able to break in and meet Joshua.
"That bitch thinks she can keep me away from Joshua. Who the heck is Major General Rupert Meyers? This is all an act, and I am sure her truth will come out once I meet my man." Amber continued to blabber; and this time, she made sure to keep her voice lest she should get busted by the guard. He clearly worked for that woman.
'Major General Rupert Meyers,' The name sent alarm bells in Jared's mind. But he could not remember where he had heard about him. Something was wrong, something was definitely wrong. But he could decipher what. Before he could ask Amber about it, the girl had ended the call, ready to get into action.
