With that, he put two more pieces of fish on her plate.
Amber hurriedly covered her plate and said, "Enough, enough. Thank you. I'll help myself. Eat something, you…"
"Are you concerned about me?" Jared leaned in.
Amber gave him a dirty look, then put down her utensil and pushed his face away. "Eat your food."
This scene made the bosses who had been staring laugh.
"Ms. Farrell and Ms. Reed are so lovey-dovey. You guys can't stop publicly displaying your affection."
Jared sat up straight. "It's fine."
Although his tone was light, smugness was written on his face.
The corner of Amber's lips twitched and she looked at him in silence.
Ugh. Who's lovey-dovey with him? Who's publicly displaying affection with him?
That's cheeky.
After dinner, it was dark outside.
Ben escorted the bosses out of the hotel; Jared and Amber were walking behind them.
When she got to the front door of the hotel, Amber suddenly saw something, her face full of surprise. She clutched her bag and ran out of the hotel door.
When Jared saw this, he quickened his pace. "What's up?"
He stopped beside her.
Amber stood on the front steps of the hotel, looked up at the sky, and replied with a smile, "It's snowing!"
The corner of Jared's eyes twitched.
Of course, he knew it was snowing. As he stepped out of the elevator, he saw it was snowing outside.
But for him, snow was like rain, it was a normal change in the weather and nothing to be concerned about.
And he didn't expect her to act like this.
"I thought it was something that went wrong," said Jared, laughing. "It's just snow, isn't it? What's so happy about it?"
Amber reached out and caught a snowflake.
But the snowflakes were quickly melted by the warmth of her hand, leaving only a drop of the water.
Amber withdrew her hand, looking at the heavy snow outside, and spoke, "Of course, I am happy about it. How beautiful it is when snowing! I haven't seen snow in Olkmore for years. I did not expect it to actually snow this year, and it's gonna be a big one. Look at this, everything might be covered by the snow."
After saying that, she tried to reach out to catch the snowflakes again.
But this time Jared stopped her.
He grabbed her hand back, "Don't. Isn't it cold? Look at your hands and face, all frozen red."
And it was obvious that she was spitting white mist when she spoke.
"It's not cold." Amber shook her head and replied, while trying to pull her hands back, "Just let me play. I haven't seen snow in a long time."
"No." Jared still disagreed and said with a stern face, "What if you get frostbite? If you want to watch the snow, we can go back and watch it in the house. Alright, I'll take you back."
He pulled her to the hotel reception to borrow an umbrella before walking towards his car parked on the street.
On the way, Amber propped her head up and kept staring out the window at the snow.
Jared couldn't help but ask, "Is it really that pretty?"
"Of course." Amber nodded, her face raised in a stunning smile, "My mom was born on a snowy day, my mom just loved snow, I'm influenced by her and love snow too, so every time I see snow, I'm especially happy. Oh, speaking of which, my mom's birthday is coming up. I haven't visited her grave for a long time."
"When the time comes, I'll go with you," Jared said as he drove the car.
Amber turned her head to look at him, "You?"
Jared nodded, "By that time, maybe we were already together, so I should go with you."
Amber pouted and scoffed at him, "You say we will be together. Do you really believe that?"
"I have faith." Jared gave her a slight sideways glance.
