Chapter 796: Shut Up

Chapter 796: Shut Up

After finishing speaking, the man also left.

When Mrs. Torres came out with clean fruit, she saw Amber standing

motionless in the middle of the living room. Mrs. Torres asked, "Amber,

what are you doing standing there? Where did that young man go?"

Amber looked at Mrs. Torres, who was full of hospitality, and her

expression stiffened for a while before easing slightly.

Amber took the initiative to hug Mrs. Torres, and her emotions were in a

terrible state.

But she couldn't involve her parents. She knew exactly what those

people were capable of.

She tightly pursed her lips and whispered, "Mom, I might have to go

back to work at the company.”

"Why so sudden? Didn't you say you were on a long vacation?"

"Yeah, I thought it was a long vacation too, but there's a lot of work at

the company now, so I have to go back."

"Then come back to visit when you have time. By the way, where did

that young man go?"

"He had something to do and didn't eat. Please don't believe in random

people and don't bring anyone home, it's troublesome.” Amber

whispered, not daring to reveal too much, afraid that her parents would

get worried.

Amber had lunch at home, then chatted with her parents for a while,

watched TV, and then she said, "I'm going out for a walk. You just stay

at home."

Amber's parents laughed, "Our girl is taking charge of us now."

But they were happy in their hearts.

Their daughter had grown up, and as parents, they were naturally

happy.

Amber left the house, not going any where, but instead went around to

a small alley about a kilometer away from home. She knocked on the

black car parked in the alley, and the window lowered in the next

second.

Amber asked, "Can you really help me get rid of them?"

The person in the car gave a faint smile. "If we didn't have the ability,

would you have come here voluntarily?"

Amber's face stiffened, and she said, "I need to ensure the safety of my

parents.”

"Don't worry about that, it's the most basic requirement.”

"Okay, I'll go with you." Amber didn't go home again, but directly got

into the car after opening the door. Then she made a phone call to her

parents, telling them that she was going back to Hance City and not to

worry, she would come back after finishing her work.

Because Amber didn't have frequent contact with her family, her

parents didn't suspect anything.

After ending the call, Amber looked at the man driving and asked,

"Where are we going now?"

"Back to Hance City." The man responded and glanced at Amber

through the rearview mirror. "Your parents can rest assured. I've

arranged for someone to protect them and reported to the police.

Nothing will happen.”

"Okay, thank you." Amber nodded. All the arrogance she had shown in

the project disappeared, leaving only worry and anxiety.

The car left the town and entered the highway without any obstacles,

smoothly all the way.

Until the car was about to exit the highway and head towards a certain

intersection in the city center of Hance City, a black car suddenly

rushed out from the intersection. The car slammed on the brakes, and

Amber, who was in the back seat resting her eyes, immediately woke

up.

She quickly asked the man driving, "Kian, what's happening?"

Kian's face was cold, and his brows were furrowed tightly. He gently

reminded, "Buckle up."

After saying that, Kian immediately dialed a phone number with his free

hand.

Amber in the back seat immediately followed his instructions and

buckled up. The black car that was blocking their way revved its

engine, ready to charge forward. Kian noticed this and immediately

stepped on the gas, firmly gripping the steering wheel, and turned to

the side to avoid the collision. Then he accelerated to put some

distance between their car and the black car chasing them.

However, Kian not only had to worry about the pursuers behind him but

also had to navigate through the crowded city streets, avoiding

pedestrians and other vehicles.

So Kian could only focus on the front and couldn't pay attention to the

rear. While evading pedestrians and other vehicles, the car behind

them directly crashed into the back of their car with a violent impact.

The car shook with tremendous force, and despite Kian's efforts to

control it, he couldn't withstand the impact.

The car lost control and crashed into the green belt on the side of the

road. Both occupants were thrown forward due to the strong force, but

luckily, they were wearing seat belts, so there weren't any serious

injuries.

The black car that caused the collision didn't stay for long and

immediately drove away. They chose a location without surveillance

cameras, leaving no reliable evidence.

Kian sat in the driver's seat, taking some time to calm down before

turning his head to look at Amber in the back seat and asked, "Are you

okay?"

Amber hit her head, but it wasn't too serious. She held her head and

replied softly, "I'm fine."

The car was stuck in the stone stairs of the green belt, and it wasn't

safe to stay in the car. So Kian said to Amber, "Are you able to get out

of the car?"

Amber nodded, "Ye."

"Then let's get out first." Kian reminded Amber to be careful and

opened the car door after scanning the surroundings.

The two of them walked to the roadside and waited for someone to

arrive. Amber asked cautiously, "Kian, are they doing this to shut me

up?"

"They probably don't want to kill you, just to remind you of what to say

and what not to say."

"What about my parents?"

"They are safe. Now that you've left home, most of their attention is on

you. And they have someone taking care of them, so you don't need to

worry too much.”

Amber nodded, but deep down, she was still afraid.

They didn't have to wait long by the roadside before the person Kian

had notified arrived. In such a situation, it was best to keep a low

profile. Kian took Amber in a business car and left, leaving others to

handle the rest.

The driver turned to Kian and asked, "Kian, should I take you home or

to the hospital?"

Kian glanced at Amber. Although Amber was just a job to him, he still

asked, "Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Do you need to go to the

hospital for a check-up?"

“I'm fine.” Amber shook her head. She didn't want to go anywhere now,

especially in such a public place.

Kian was also fine. After hearing Amber's response, he didn't insist

further. Instead, he instructed the driver to directly drive to a villa owned

by Ayan.

After returning to the villa, Kian asked Amber to rest for a while. After

such a major incident, she must have been scared.

When Amber reached the guest room on the first floor, Kian made a call

to Ayan.

"Mr. Simpson, I've brought Amber back.”

"Okay." Ayan was in his office dealing with work and naturally heard

about the crash. He asked, "Are you alright?"

Kian was extremely touched. "Mr. Simpson, I'm fine. It was just a minor

collision."

"Good to hear. Resolve this matter as soon as possible and don't waste

any more time."

"Okay, I'll ask Amber right away. She just experienced such an

accident. I think she understands the severity of it and knows who can

help her and who can harm her."

Ayan had no additional comments, except that he emphasized the

need for quick action.

So Amber didn't rest. Kian knocked on the door of the guest room and

walked in, leaving the door slightly ajar.

Kian was quite mindful of such things.

Kian stared at Amber and asked, "Miss Torres, have you made up your

mind? There are some things I won't ask, but you can choose to speak

up.”

Amber raised her eyes to meet Kian's gaze, understanding the

meaning behind his words.

Amber tightly pursed her lips and remained silent, full of hesitation.

Kian gave her enough time for thinking about it. After a few minutes,

Amber finally spoke in a low voice, "Kian, if you want to know

something, just ask!"

“That night, you met Louise, right?"

"Yes, because I wanted her to back off and resign from the company,

so that the position of the chief architect would be mine without any

changes. But she refused and even said she would take everything

back. We argued, and then she received a phone call, but I don't know

who it was, only that she seemed very eager to please the person.”

Amber said that after Louise answered the call, she left. But Amber was

angry and followed Louise all the way to the apartment building where

she lived.

Kian asked, "Do you know who called her?"
