Chapter 216: You Are on Your Own

Amber Reed pressed her lips together and didn't answer. She wanted to say she hated Tina, resented Tina, and was jealous of Tina! Tina had taken everything from her, even the man who should have been hers, leaving her in this miserable state! Tina had ruined her life, so she deserved to take the blame!

She looked down at her phone and saw a video of herself removing Elizabeth's oxygen mask in the hospital room. The video, along with everything she had said in the room, had been exposed online. This shocking turn of events stunned everyone following the case. They wondered if Elizabeth had lost her mind, favoring an adopted ingrate over her excellent biological granddaughter, Tina, who nearly got killed by this ingrate.

Many people tagged Nathaniel Farrell on social media, asking if he still intended to marry such a venomous woman. Nathaniel Farrell did not respond, but netizens were divided into two camps. One side argued that since Nathaniel Farrell had impregnated Amber Reed, he should take responsibility regardless of whether she was a murderer. The other side believed that a wife should be virtuous and that marrying a woman like Amber Reed would bring misfortune to the family for generations. For the sake of family honor and future peace, they argued it was better to bear some shame now than to let such a woman into their home; even the child should not be kept.

People said that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and rats give birth to children who dig holes. They feared that a woman like Amber Reed would raise a child who would become a menace to society. Amber Reed bit her lip and sent several messages to Nathaniel Farrell, but he did not reply. "Will Nathaniel abandon me because of this?" Amber Reed bit her lip again and covered her face to hide her dark expression, pretending to be in unbearable pain.

Unfortunately for her, Damian was not moved by what she thought were compelling tears. He drove with a look of disappointment on his face. "Amber, do you feel no shame or remorse at all?"

Amber Reed was taken aback but remained silent as Damian ignored her for the rest of the drive back to the Reed Residence.

As they neared the Reed Residence, Amber saw Pinewood Reed and Talon Reed walking out of the old house with satisfied expressions. It seemed they had taken advantage of this situation to extort money from Jasper Reed. Amber shrank back into her seat, afraid that they would see her and cause more trouble. Damian glanced at her actions and pursed his lips tighter, his face growing even darker.

When they entered the mansion and saw the members of the Reed family waiting in the living room, Amber couldn't help but shrink back again. Esther and Garrett looked conflicted, while Annabelle and Jasper Reed's faces were stern. Only Audrey Woodwind's eyes betrayed undisguised schadenfreude.

In the capital, Audrey Woodwind had often been bested by Amber Reed. She had thought her cousin was formidable, but now she found Amber's antics in Ensford laughable.
