So, Amber's heart began to regret a little.
Regret should not be joking around, especially this kind of joke that some hurt the dignity of men.
"What's on your mind?" Just when Amber was regretting in her heart, Jared beside her suddenly spoke up and asked.
Amber barely managed to squeeze out a smile, "It's nothing, it's just ......"
"Hmm?"
"It's just now ......"
Before Amber could finish her sentence, Jared suddenly saw something and pointed to a couple of middle-aged women not far ahead, "There's the person you're looking for."
Amber looked in the direction he pointed, and saw a spot in the middle of the banquet hall where several middle-aged women with dresses and a look of pampering were standing together talking and laughing.
And standing in the middle, out of the center of a noble lady, is the one that Amber is going to befriend this time.
Seeing her, Amber was instantly surprised, "It's really true, so I'll go over there first?"
"Do you need me to keep you company?" The man asked as he stopped and looked at her.
Amber shook her head, "No, you were supposed to accompany me today, so it's better for me to go by myself, after all, it's me who has to ask the other party, not you, so I want to try it myself, in saying that there are all wives over there, why do you go as a big man? Not appropriate."
Jared stroked her brain, "Well then, I won't accompany you there, I'll go say hello to one of my grandfather's elders when he was alive, and I'll meet you over there later."
He pointed to the rest area where they went at the beginning.
Amber nodded, "Okay, you go ahead, then I'll go ahead."
"Hmm." Jared nodded, "Go ahead, I'll watch you go over and I'll leave when you do."
"Good." Amber smiled at him, then turned around, took a deep breath, patted her chest, and gathered her courage to walk over there.
After two steps, a waiter called out to Amber, "Miss Reed, do you have something in your hand that you need to take care of for me?"
Amber froze, then realized what was going on and looked back at Jared for confirmation.
Jared gave a faint nod.
Amber was sure that this waiter was the one he had Ben arrange to help her cheat, and was immediately relieved, handing him the bag in her hand, "Of course I need it, please."
"Miss Reed you're welcome." The waiter saw Amber smiling politely at herself and was flattered to bow, then her eyes fell on Amber's hand and added, "I see Miss Reed doesn't have any wine in her hand, I'll bring it to Miss Reed in a moment, what kind of wine does Miss Reed want?"
"Wine." Amber gently pointed in the direction of the wives' group over there, "Just send it there later, I'll wait for you there."
"Okay." The waitress nodded in response and turned to leave, carrying her bag.
Amber exhaled slightly when she saw him go.
With a final glance at the man who was still standing at attention, he reared his feet and walked ahead.
Jared kept watching her, watching her get up the courage to say hello to the wives, watching her take the 'wine' that the waiter had just brought and clink glasses with the wives, watching her successfully penetrate the wives and talk to the wives, Jared was relieved to walk away.
Unknowingly, she has really grown a lot.
If she had just taken over Goldstone Co., she would never have had the courage to go up to this group of wives and make friends with them.
Which is like now, after a little pumping, you can go straight up.
Such growth is something he is happy to see, and he is happy about it.
So Jared was relieved to leave Amber with the wives, and went to greet his grandfather's best friends when he was alive.
After the greeting, Jared stopped paying attention to anyone, declined the invitations of various people who wanted to make friends with him, and went to the rest area alone, waiting for Amber to return from making friends with the wives' group.
Probably Jared's refusal to befriend is very firm but obvious, all the time, the other people at the party, also resigned to not come forward.
