Chapter 26 I Know You Didn’t Mean It, Mr. Farrell
Standing in the cold wind near the car and talking on the phone, Amber felt dizzy and she staggered a little.
Jared looked sullen, directly took the phone from her and hung up. Then he carried her and went to the other side of the car.

She was startled by his action and almost dropped her umbrella. While gripping his shirt with one hand, she exclaimed, “Jared Farrell, put me
down!”
He ignored her, pulled open the door to the passenger seat and shoved her in.
“Mr. Farrell, what do you want?” Seeing him pulling the seat belt, she said with a cold face, “I can find a driver, and I don’t need your care!”
In their six years of marriage, they had never talked much, and he never cared for her. But after getting a divorce, within a few days, they met
each other several times.
When did Olkmore City become so small?
Seeing her uncomfortable but stubborn look, he got more displeased and said, “The weather is not good and no driver will take your order.”
“That’s not your business.”
“Amber.” He leaned towards her and met her eyes. “Do you have to be so stubborn?”
The space inside the car was small. When he leaned over, she had nowhere to hide.
She got colder, her face paler. When she was about to say something, she suddenly noticed that his back got wet because he did not use an umbrella when carrying her.
Feeling somehow a bit shocked, she quickly looked away without saying anything.
He glanced at her and continued to pull the seat belt over. Because they were close, he accidently touched her heaving chest with his fingers.
They both froze.
She reacted first, snatched the seat belt from him and inserted it in the safety buckle.
He swallowed, “Sorry.”
“It’s okay. I know you did not mean it, Mr. Farrell. Thinking of what Mr. Yates said at the card table, she couldn’t help but mock Jared, “Mr. Farrell, you are just a rare ‘saint‘ for centuries!”
Hearing her taunt, he only frowned, quickly got into the driver’s seat and started the car.
He asked, “What’s the address?”
“Kelsington Bay,” she replied succinctly and then looked out of the window with her hand under her chin.
They no longer spoke to each other. It was silent in the car and they could hear the subtle swaying sound of wipers.
She felt uncomfortable from the rain.
Due to the warm air inside the car, she soon felt dizzy and drowsy.
The car arrived at Kelsington Bay but Jared did not know which building she lived in. When he noticed her red cheeks, he guessed she probably had caught a cold. So he got off the car and bought some medicine.
He called her name several times but she did not respond. Hearing her coughs, he put the medicine in his mouth first and cupped her jaw,
leaned closer to her and fed the medicine into her mouth.
Her lips were cold but soft. He felt some kind of temptation and wanted to go deeper.
Suddenly, his phone on the armrest vibrated.
He returned to his senses, glancing at her slightly swollen lips and realizing what he had done. Feeling a bit flustered, he took over his phone.
*Jared, have you finished with your business?” Makenna’s soft voice came on the phone.

And…….terrible ending, the story is not finished....
Jared needs to find a way to sleep with Amber, find the letters in her bedroom and realize he has given his love to the wrong woman through Makenna’s deception. Don’t want he or Amber to live a life of misery due to someone else’s lying. Makenna and her family are terrible people, using Jared for his status and wealth....
Amber needs to lighten up a little too, their relationship was not all Jared’s fault as she didn’t tell him the truth about being his pen pal either. As for his mother, let her drop dead along with the Gardners....
Jared needs to state his feelings so Amber can feel his sincerity which means dumping Makenna, the fake, despicable woman...
Wow Jared needs to grow a set and dump that lying deceitful witch and her whole family and remarry Amber asap. Otherwise he will be a miserable man for life with that terrible woman....
Jared needs to wake up and dump Makenna particularly since his true love is Amber not the wicked witch....
Ugh, why do the horrible conniving people always win. Terrible Makenna is wicked, she’s a thief, stealing Ambers identity as Maple Leaf and pretending to be someone she’s not. Awful person....
