Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 474 She Started to Care
Downstairs, Amber finally recovered from her daze. She stood up and glared at Hayden. "What are you doing?"
Hayden did not expect her to act so harshly. His eyes flashed for a moment before he retracted his hand. "Help you wipe the cream."
Afraid that she would not believe him, he handed the tissue to her and gestured for her to take a look.
Seeing that there was indeed a bit of cream on it, Amber knew that she had misunderstood. She calmed down and sat back. "Oh, sorry, I thought you..."
"You thought I took advantage of you?" Hayden giggled.
"Anyway, don't be like this in the future. It's easy for people to misunderstand. Just remind me next time. I'll do it myself."
"It's just a piece of cake. No one will misunderstand. But since you insist, okay." Hayden shrugged and agreed.
Only he knew how regretful he felt.
He thought of using occasional intimate actions to touch her heart.
Unexpectedly, she was so vigilant and attentive that she didn't give him any chance to be intimate.
It seemed that if he wanted to pursue her, he had to take it slow.
Hayden shook his head with a forced smile.
An hour later, the two of them finished their meal.
Amber paid the bill and packed two servings of strawberry cakes, preparing to go back.
As soon as she walked out of the restaurant, she felt a blast of chilling wind. She couldn't help but sneeze and even tremble.
Seeing this, Hayden quickly asked, "Cold?"
"A little." Amber replied, then looked up at the sky.
There was not a single star in the sky, and even moon was nowhere to be seen. It was so dark that it made one feel depressed. It seemed that it was going to rain.
Just as she was thinking about it, Amber suddenly felt a weight on her shoulder.
She quickly looked down and found that there was a coat on her shoulder.
The coat looked very familiar, and it was Hayden who was wearing them.
Amber turned to look at the man beside her. Sure enough, the man's coat was gone, leaving only a shirt and a knitted vest. She asked in surprise, "Why did you give me the coat?"
"Aren't you cold? I am a man. This is what I should do," Hayden chuckled.
"I don't want you to catch a cold because of me. You'd better take this back and put it on."
As she spoke, she took off the coat and was about to return it to Hayden.
However, Hayden forcefully put it back on her shoulder. In order to prevent her from taking it off again, he even pressed down on her shoulders. "Alright, listen to me. Put it on. I am a grown man. I'm not that fragile."
"But..."
Just as Amber pursed her lips and was about to say something, a gloomy and cold male voice sounded from behind her, "Excuse me... Can you move aside? You guys are blocking the way." This voice was...
Amber widened her eyes and looked back. She saw Jared and Ben standing not far away, looking at them expressionlessly.
It was indeed Jared.
Why was he here?
Wasn't he still in the hospital?
It was natural to wonder. Hayden smiled and looked at Jared, "Jared, good evening. What a coincidence that you are also eating here! But weren't you in the hospital? Why did you suddenly come out?" Jared did not speak. His gloomy eyes fell on Amber's shoulder.
Amber sensed it and subconsciously shook Hayden's hand off her shoulder. At the same time, she took the coat off and threw it back into his arms. Looking at Jared, she said, "This... this coat is..." "Amber, you have nothing to do with him. You don't have to explain anything." Hayden narrowed his eyes slightly at Amber, as if he wanted to see something fishy from her face.
Amber got stunned at his words, but then she reacted, her expression somewhat ugly.
Yes, she had nothing to do with Jared, so whatever she did had nothing to do with him.
But why did she explain to him the coat she was wearing?
Was she crazy?
Thinking of this, Amber lowered her eyelids and stopped talking.
At this time, Jared finally spoke, his voice cold and distant, "You guys go on."
With this, he raised his foot and walked towards the Maybach by the side of the road.
Ben faced Amber and Hayden, nodded, and also followed him.
This time, Hayden was a bit puzzled.
What was going on?
When Jared saw that he was so close to Amber, not only did he not stop them, he even let them continue! Was... was this still Jared?
Other than that, Jared saw that his coat was draped over Amber but did not look angry or jealous.
So what was going on? What had prompted Jared's shift of attitude?
Hayden looked at Jared's back, his eyes filled with indescribable shock.
When Amber saw Jared leave, her heart tightened. She hastened to chase after him.
"Wait."
Jared had already gotten into the car. Hearing her voice, he stopped closing the door.
Amber jogged to his car door and took two deep breaths. Then, she looked at him and said, "I..."
"What do you wanna say?" Jared asked softly.
Amber bit her lower lip.
In fact, she did not know what to say.
When she saw him leave, she subconsciously chased after him.
Even she herself did not know why she did this.
In her heart, she was still angry: When he saw her and Hayden standing together, he didn't show the slightest bit of jealousy.
"If you have nothing to say, I'm going back to the hospital." Jared spoke again, putting his hand on the handle of the car door.
Amber's eyes flashed and she collected her thoughts. "I just want to ask you. It's not time for you to leave the hospital yet. Why did you come out?"
"There's an elder who used to get along with my deceased father. He asked me out to discuss cooperation, so I took three hours off from the hospital. Is there anything else you want to say? If not, I'll close the door." Jared shot an icy glance at her.
"No... no more." Amber shook her head.
There was really nothing more to say.
What she had just said was the only thing she had come up with after racking her brains.
Jared acknowledged and closed the car door.
"Yes." Ben responded and started the car.
Watching the Maybach drive out and gradually enter other traffic, Amber slowly clenched her fists. Her heart was in a mess, and she was in a panic.
Hayden had not come over for a long time, but he did this time, with a coat on his arm. "Do you want the coat?"
"No need." Amber shook her head.
"I thought so." Hayden smiled inexplicably, but his smile was very sad.
He could see that she was starting to care about Jared.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have subconsciously thrown the coat to him and kept a distance from him.
She had loved Jared before, so it was possible, even likely, for her to fall in love with him again.
This incident of falling off the cliff had moved her heart again.
After all, it was very rare for a person to risk his life for her. Who else was more worthy of her love?
It seemed that he would win the bet.
However, he was not happy at all.
The only thing that made him happy was Jared's attitude towards Amber tonight.
Thinking about this, Hayden put on his coat and asked tentatively, "Amber, did something happen between you and Jared?"☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
