Amanda's face changed when she heard Lena's words.
"What did you say?" Her face sunk as Amanda looked at Lena and gritted her teeth.
Lena smiled mockingly and said softly, "If you want to hear it again, I'll do it for you. After all, Miss Amanda has slept with so many men and indeed has some connections. I really respect you!"
"You must listen carefully this time. I say: who wouldn't know a bitch who has slept with countless men?"
"Is that clear for you?"
Lena said meaningfully in a mocking tone.
Because Amanda had hurt Jacob, Lena just threw her manners aside and became very mean.
Amanda's face went an ugly green.
However, suddenly, someone called Amanda from behind, "Amanda!"
Hearing this voice, Amanda's twisted face disappeared.
Instead, she put on a gentle look.
Lena and Jacob were slightly stunned by the speed at which her face changed.
"Reed!"
Amanda turned around and walked to Reed.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
Reed apologized. His eyes were filled with love and tenderness.
"It's fine."
The smile on Amanda's face widened as she said softly.
"They're your friends?" Reed looked at Jacob and Lena, puzzled.
Just now, he seemed to see Amanda talking to them.
He should say hi to them if they were Amanda's friends.
But Amanda just took his arm and whispered, "No, I don't know them. Let's go and start our romance dinner. I've been looking forward to it...."
She was acting all flirty and pouty.
So, Reed did not ask again and took Amanda to the other side for the VIPs.
When Reed was not looking, Amanda looked back at Jacob and Lena with a disdainful smile.
Then she quickly turned around and snuggled up to Reed.
Now Amanda decided to keep a low profile before marrying Reed, so as not to expose her past.
However, Lena suddenly said.
"Miss Young, are you afraid that we'll expose you? Why do you pretend you don't know us?"
Amanda's body tensed up.
Since Lena called her name, it was impossible for Amanda to pretend that she didn't hear it.
Reed also turned around and looked at Lena with some doubts.
Just as Reed was about to ask, Amanda leaned to his ear. In a voice that only Reed and she could hear, she said softly, "They're my classmates. After graduation, they swindled money everywhere. I got a call from a friend the other day. She told me to be careful of them. If they want to borrow money, I should not lend it to them. Most of our old classmates have been tricked by them on different excuses. I thought they are my classmates, so I tried to hide it for them. But I don't want to borrow them money, so I pretended that I don't know them. I didn't know that they're so shameless."
Reed frowned.
Amanda continued, "Forget it. Let's ignore them. Otherwise, they might make troubles for us. Don't let them affect us."
Amanda's voice was very low. Only she and Reed could hear it.
Reed nodded.
And he stilled looked at her dotingly.
He had always listened to Amanda.
Now, he believed Amanda.
However, Amanda did not know Jacob and Lena had very good hearing now.
And they both heard what she said to Reed.
Lena finally knew that Amanda was utterly shameless.
She was about to say something.
But Jacob reached out his arms and stopped her.
"You're the matriarch of the Bells. That would be her honor if you argue with her."
Jacob said.
Lena also knew this, but she didn't like Amanda, especially after she smeared Jacob.
Even though she was demeaning herself by saying that, she couldn't help but say something.
However, after hearing Jacob's words, Lena smiled and did not speak again. She was obedient and listened to Jacob.
Then Jacob looked in Amanda's direction.
His eyes flashed with utmost malice.
Since Amanda provoked him again, she couldn't blame him for doing something to her.
Jacob stretched out his hand and started drawing runes in the air.
"Go!"
Jacob shouted coldly.
These runes rushed towards Reed.
"Take a good long look and see how Amanda is really like!"
Jacob sneered.
Reed, who was going to take Amanda away, suddenly had many images in his mind.
There was the same woman in every scene.
And it was Amanda, who was beside him.
But Amanda was with different men in every image.
She looked intimate with every single one of them.
And everyone could know her relationship with those men after seeing these.
These images kept flashing through Reed's mind.
His face grew darker.
"Amanda, you...." Reed suddenly looked at Amanda, who was hugging his arm.
Amanda looked up at Reed with a gentle smile. "What's wrong?"
Her voice was still that soft and melodious.
"They are swindlers?" Reed asked again.
Amanda remained calm, but she panicked in her heart.
However, she still replied softly, "Yeah!"
However, Reed looked even more distressed.
Jacob shouted. Then his figure flashed. The next second, he appeared beside Amanda.
He reached out his hand to Amanda.
And Amanda started trembling.
A look of extreme fear appeared in her eyes.
Because she could feel that she was losing time all of a sudden.
On Amanda's face, her fair, smooth, and tender skin began to age at a visible rate. The luster gradually disappeared, and she was all wrinkled.
Her long black hair began to turn gray. In the end, her hair turned completely white.
She withered, stooped, and was no longer curvy or attractive.
Not only that, Amanda even had difficulty breathing.
During this process of aging, she coughed from time to time.
In the end, she coughed more frequently.
"You ... you ... what ... what did you do ... to me?"
Amanda watched helplessly as she aged so quickly. She was simply shocked to the extreme.
So, she started coughing, and she couldn't even finish her sentence.
As she coughed, she became more horrified.
"Just enjoy the very last time of your life. In your next life, get smarter. You should remember there are people that you cannot afford to offend."
Jacob sneered.
Then he left Amanda aside.
Jacob was the Emperor of the Dark Realm!
He had never been a good man.
If Amanda dared to make troubles for him, he would turn her life into hell and make her die in despair.
After depriving Amanda of decades of life, Jacob turned to look at Reed. "Do you have any problems?"
Reed was as stunned as Amanda.
He saw Jacob turning a young woman into an old woman.
That look of old age was real, and no makeup could make it.
Could a human being do this?
Reed looked at Jacob with fear in his eyes.
He had hated Amanda for a moment, because she lied to him. But he had never wanted Amanda to become like this.
However, even if he had any thoughts, Reed didn't dare to show them in front of Jacob.
"No!" Reed lowered his head and said.
"This woman is not good enough for you!"
Jacob patted Reed on the shoulder and turned to leave.
"Jacob ... please ... please...."
Amanda immediately knelt when Jacob was about to leave.
She didn't want to get so old now.
She had a great life ahead of her.
This was the first time Amanda had regretted what she had done!
