"Are you so sure?" Amber said to Lady Georgia while looking for her mobile phone.

"That brat wants us to end the conversation early and let you go back to rest. Although he said he would give us half an hour, with my understanding of that brat, he definitely won't be able to wait for half an hour. If you don't believe me, look at it."

She motioned Amber to look at her mobile phone.

Amber took out her phone and looked down. Her beautiful eyebrows couldn't help but twitch. She couldn't help but laugh. "You're correct. It's him."

"I told you. Alright, hurry up and pick it up. Otherwise, that kid will come over personally." The old lady laughed helplessly and shook her head.

Amber hummed in agreement. Her jade-like fingers swiped across the green answer button and picked up the phone. "Hello?"

"Have you finished chatting with grandma?" Jared's deep and pleasant voice came from the phone.

"It's about time." Amber nodded slightly.

"Then get the maid to bring you over to rest," Jared said.

"Don't be in such a hurry. I can stay with grandma for a while longer." Amber rubbed her eyebrows. "Isn't it cold to stay here? Moreover, grandma is going to rest. She is old and can't stay up late." The old lady was next to Amber's phone. When she heard this, she immediately rolled her eyes.

What did he mean?

This kid was definitely lying through his teeth!

He clearly knew that the old lady slept very late every day.

How hypocritical!

This stinky brat just wanted to lie to Amber to rest early, so he had deliberately used her as an excuse.

Okay, forget it. For the sake that her grandson was wholeheartedly pursuing a wife, she, an old woman, would give him a hand.

Thinking of this, the old lady retracted her head and then held her forehead tiredly. "Murphy, what time is it?"

"It's already ten o'clock, Lady." Mrs. Murphy glanced at the time and said.

Lady Georgia pretended to be surprised and stood up. "Already? Murphy, is it time for me to take the medicine?"

As she spoke, she gave Mrs. Murphy a look.

Mrs. Murphy had served her for dozens of years, and she knew what she meant by just a small movement.

"Yes. The doctor said that you should take the medicine at ten o'clock every night, so let's go back to the room first."

"You are right. Then let's go back first." Lady Georgia looked at Amber and sighed. "Amber, I will go back to take the medicine first. Listen to Jared and rest early."

The corners of Amber's mouth twitched. How could she not know what she was doing? The medicine was just an excuse for her to leave.

Lady Georgia did this because she wanted to help Jared and let her go back to rest early.

Also, she could see that Lady Georgia had been trying to match Jared with her.

She was afraid that her feelings for Jared had also been seen by Lady Georgia, right?

Sure enough, everyone had long seen that she had fallen in love with Jared again except herself.

Amber laughed bitterly in her heart and replied with a smile on her face, "Alright, Grandma, you should rest early too."

"I understand. Alright, I'll leave first. Someone will take you to the room later."

After saying that, the old madam turned her head to look at Mrs. Murphy.

Mrs. Murphy immediately helped her out of the pavilion.

There was only Amber in the pavilion. Amber looked down at her phone. The screen was still showing the call. She opened her mouth in surprise. He actually hadn't hung up!

She thought that he had.

"Jared, are you still there?" Amber quickly put the phone back to her ear.

Jared replied, "Yes!"

He replied very quickly. It was obvious that he had always kept his phone by his ear. Otherwise, he would not have heard her answer immediately. Amber's heart softened and she said, "I'm sorry. I just said a few words to grandma."

"I know. Grandma told you to rest early too." Jared nodded.

"Did you hear that?" Amber was surprised.

"Grandma's voice is quite loud. Alright, wait for me there. I'll take you to your room." Jared chuckled.

"No need. Grandmother said to have the servant take me there..."

Before she could finish, Jared hung up the phone.

Amber looked at the phone interface that had jumped back to the home page. She chuckled.

Ever since Jared had expressed his feelings for her, he had almost never hung up on her first. It was always she who had hung up first.

This time, he had hung up before her. It was obvious that he did not want to hear her stop him from coming over.

Forget it. Since he was already on his way over, then let him do it.

Amber put her phone back into her bag, picked up her teacup, and sipped her tea, waiting for Jared to arrive.

After waiting for about ten minutes, footsteps came from outside the pavilion.

Amber put down the teacup, got up, and walked to the door, ready to open it.

In the end, before her hand could touch the eaves of the door, the door was pulled open from the outside.

Amber looked up and met Jared's eyes.

Jared did not expect Amber to be standing behind the door. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled. "You wanted to open the door for me?" Amber shrugged her shoulders.

Jared walked into the pavilion and put down the bag in his hand.

"What is this?" Amber looked down at the bag he had placed on the table.

"Shoes." After Jared replied, he opened the bag and revealed an exquisite shoe box.

Amber looked at the packaging of the shoebox and guessed something.

The shoes inside were probably given to her by him.

After all, there were no men's shoes that would be placed in a pink shoebox. Moreover, the shoebox was so small that it could not fit men's shoes.

Sure enough, Jared took off the lid of the shoebox, and a pair of beautiful fluffy slippers printed into Amber's eyes.

Jared pulled out the chair and sat down. Then he patted the chair opposite him. "Sit down."

Amber hesitated for two seconds, but still sat down.

"These..."

"It's for you." Jared picked up a woolen slipper. "That pebble road won't be removed until tomorrow, so you still have to walk past it a few more times. If you put these on, you won't have to worry about spraining your ankles."

After he finished speaking, he bent down and reached out his hand to Amber's foot.

Amber's pupils shrank. She realized that he wanted to help her change her shoes, so she quickly moved her foot back. "I'll do it myself."

Jared looked up at her.

Looking at her blushing little face and the nervousness in her eyes, he could not help but chuckle. Then he put the slipper in front of her on the ground and took out the other slipper from the box. He also put it on the ground. Then he opened his thin lips and said, "Okay, you can do it yourself."

He knew that she was shy and didn't force her.

Seeing that Jared really had no intention of forcibly changing her shoes, Amber heaved a sigh of relief. She immediately bent down, took off her high heels, and changed into the fluffy slippers that Jared had brought.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
