With one hand pressing on her heart, she kept fanning her face with the other hand, trying to lower the temperature on her face.
Jared looked at Amber who was acting strangely and asked, "What's the matter with you?"
"No... It's nothing..." Amber replied hesitantly, and quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
God, what happened to her?
Why did her heart beat so fast?
Why was her face so hot?
Calm down now!
He wasn't really calling her "baby"; he was just repeating what Cole called her. Why did she behave so abnormally?
Cole often called her by the nickname "baby". And she didn't feel nervous or had any reaction. But why did she behave like this when Jared called her "baby"?
Jared could obviously tell that Amber wasn't telling the truth. He slightly narrowed his eyes and stared at her, as if he was trying to see through her.
After a while, he seemed to understand something. A glint of light flashed out from his eyes. He then slightly leaned forward, got closer to her and said with a gentle and low voice, "You haven't answered my question just now. Is Cole still calling you baby? Um?"
This word "baby" was even more affectionate.
With the extremely provocative "Um" at the end, Amber gasped sharply.
"You... You stay away from me!" She stood up abruptly, took a few steps forward, distanced herself from him, and turned her back to him, refusing to turn around in any circumstances.
Looking at her red ears, Jared could guess what her face looked like at the moment.
Her face must be as red as the ears.
Sure enough, her abnormality was caused by what he just said.
Jared propped his head up, with a teasing smile on the corner of his mouth, "Don't let him call you by that word in the future."
"Why?" Amber rubbed her face, took a deep breath, managed to calm down the nervousness in her heart, and turned around.
Jared looked at her, "Because I don't like it."
Amber pursed her lips, "It's your own business that you don't like it. But you can't force others to do as you please."
"Because this nickname is too intimate, you are not lovers. It is not appropriate for him to call you so. The most important thing is that I will be jealous. I have endured for Cole to call you 'baby' for a long time, and I don't want to endure it anymore. Amber, I hope I'm the only one who can call you by the name 'baby'." He looked at her with a serious face.
Amber's eyes flashed, "Don't you think you're too overbearing?"
The moment after she entered the building, a black car appeared on the opposite side of the road where she parked her car.
Ben pointed at the car, "This is the car Makenna drives!"
"In the morning, when Cole and I drove to Goldstone, there was a car behind us that kept following us. This is the car. Because the plate number is quite special, so I remember it very well. But when Cole and I were going to call the police, the car left.
After that, we thought that the car just happened to drive on the same road as we did. For safety's sake, when I got to Goldstone, I asked the secretary to investigate the owner of the license plate."
