Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber)
Chapter 479 The Reason for Letting Go

Jared's eyes lit up when he saw Amber say that she had made the soup for him. He couldn't help but feel happy.

But very quickly, Jared forcefully suppressed this joy and gripped his phone tightly.

This soup... he couldn't take the soup!

He had already chosen to stay away from her.

If he accepted this soup, then Amber would not know that he was trying to distance her. The next time, she would continue to come over.

And could he continuously refuse?

No, he was very sure that he could not do it. After all, it was the soup that his beloved woman made for him. No man would really be ruthless enough to refuse again and again.

At that time, his distance and abandonment of Amber would become a joke.

So no matter what, he would not accept this soup.

He could only harden his heart from the very beginning. Otherwise, it would only make him even more reluctant.

Thinking of this, Jared closed his eyes slightly and rubbed his temples.

After a moment, when he opened his eyes again, there was only determination in his eyes.

"Ben." Jared picked up the landline microphone and called Ben's office.

Ben was busy with his work. When he heard the landline ring, he put down the pen in his hand and answered the phone. "Mr. Farrell."

"Amber sent me a soup at the front desk. You go and collect it. Then send it back to her and tell her not to spend too much effort in the future. I won't accept it." After that, he hung up the phone.

"..." Ben raised the microphone and looked at the pile of documents in front of him that needed him to deal with urgently. The corners of his mouth could not help but twitch. Well, it seemed that he had to work overtime again tonight.

Putting the microphone back on the landline, Ben smiled bitterly and patted his face. Then he stood up and left the office.

About an hour later, Ben came to Goldstone Co. with a thermostat.

Amber was having a meeting in the conference room. Sheila pushed the door open and came in. "Ms. Reed."

"What's wrong?" Amber pressed her hand down slightly, indicating for the meeting to stop first. Then she looked at Sheila and asked. Sheila looked at the people in the conference room, then walked to her side, leaned over and whispered in her ear, "Ben is here." "What is he doing here?" Amber raised her eyebrows.

Sheila shook her head. "I'm not sure, but according to what the receptionist said, he is carrying a thermal container." Amber smiled slightly.

She knew.

It should be Jared who asked Ben to return it.

"Tell him to wait for me in my office first. The meeting will be over soon," said Amber.

Sheila nodded and turned to leave.

Amber put away the expression on her face, turned her eyes back to the people below, and said lightly, "Alright, let the meeting continue." The solemn atmosphere in the meeting room returned.

About ten minutes later, the meeting ended.

Amber closed her laptop and walked out of the conference room first.

Back in the office, Amber pushed the door open and entered. Ben immediately stood up and greeted her indifferently. "Ms. Reed."

"Hello, Ben." Amber nodded slightly and walked over to her work.

When she arrived, she saw the thermos on her desk and was about to say something.

Ben took the lead and said, "Ms. Reed, this is the soup you made for our Mr. Farrell. Mr. Farrell asked me to send it back to you." Amber's face froze.

What did this mean? She made the soup for Jared, and Jared asked him to send it back to her.

Could it be...

Amber pursed her red lips and reached out to grab it. Then, she picked it up.

The thermos was very heavy, and it was the same weight as it was in the morning.

In other words, Jared did not eat the soup she made.

"Why? Why didn't he eat it?" Amber asked in an uncomfortable voice.

Ben pushed up his glasses and replied, "Mr. Farrell probably didn't like it."

"He didn't like it?" Amber looked up at him, her eyes clearly saying that it was impossible.

On the day when she first took care of Jared, she said that she would make him this soup when he could eat more flavorful food.

At that time, he was obviously looking forward to it.

Why did he say he didn't like it now?

She did not believe it at all!

Ben naturally saw the disbelief in Amber's eyes. To tell the truth, he didn't even believe it himself.

After all, Mr. Farrell loved Ms. Reed so much.

Even if Ms. Reed cooked a bowl of dog food for Mr. Farrell, Mr. Farrell would happily eat it.

Therefore, there was no need to say how far-fetched his reason was.

However, he had no choice. No matter how far-fetched it was, he still had to explain it to Ms. Reed.

"Yes, Ms. Reed. Mr. Farrell said that he didn't like it. He also told you not to made this soup for him in the future. He would not accept it. At the same time, Mr. Farrell also said that you should not look for him in the future." He looked at Ms. Reed and told her what Mr. Farrell had asked him to say.

Amber's heart suddenly contracted. She clenched her fists. "What does he mean? He won't accept anything. Don't look for him? I haven't repaid his kindness yet. He..."

"Mr. Farrell said that he doesn't need you to repay his kindness. Mr. Farrell saved you on his own accord, so Mr. Farrell never thought about getting anything in return. At the same time, Mr. Farrell also said that he would never pester you again in the future. He also wouldn't say anything about chasing you back. So, you can rest assured. In the future, you won't replace Mr. Farrell annoying. You won't have to chase him away," Ben said with an indifferent smile.

Amber bit her lips, and her heart pounded faster.

Indeed, Jared did not pester her or chase her. She should be glad that she finally got rid of an annoying person.

But... she was not happy at all.

Seeing that Amber lowered her eyelids and did not speak, Ben bowed slightly to her and turned to leave.

When Amber heard the footsteps, she immediately came back to her senses and stopped him. "Wait."

"Is there anything else, Ms. Reed?" Ben stopped and turned to look at her.

"I want to know why Jared suddenly stopped me from taking care of him." Amber took a deep breath and clenched her fists.

If he suddenly gave up on her, she could ignore it. Anyway, she didn't care about it. She also wanted it to be like this...

However, she had to replace out why he wouldn't even let her take care of him.

Ben was not surprised that Amber would ask this question.

After all, Mr. Farrell let go too suddenly. It would be strange if Ms. Reed was not surprised.

Ben pushed his eyes and replied in a businesslike manner, "Actually, the reason is very simple. Mr. Farrell feels that Ms. Reed's heart is like an iceberg. He can't see the hope of getting you back, so he decided to let go of you. Since he chose to let go, then Mr. Farrell naturally has to distance himself from you. Therefore, he won't ask you to take care of him anymore. Do you have any other question, Ms. Reed?"

Amber's red lips moved. After a moment, she replied with a hoarse voice, "No..."

Jared let go of her, so he stayed away from her and no longer let her take care of him. This was reasonable.

However, did he really let go because he couldn't see any hope?

For some reason, Amber felt that there was another reason.

It was indeed too sudden.

Everything suddenly changed overnight. This made her wonder if she had done something to make him decide to let go.

After all, if Jared wanted to let go, he would have let go long ago. He would not wait until now.

"Then I will leave first. Goodbye." Ben smiled politely at Amber, then lifted his foot and left.
