"Too far?" Jared bowed his head to look at Amber tenderly. "I don't think so. She's soft-hearted. If I were her, I would directly smash the person who dares to park her car in my parking space to provoke me. Also, I would call the property management to ban her from the building in the future."
Amber smiled.
Braylee looked at him with a baffled expression, widening her eyes in disbelief. "Mr. Farrell, you..."
"Did I say anything wrong?" Jared looked at her expressionlessly.
Braylee felt timid, swallowing hard. "Didn't you want to defend me earlier? Why do you now..."
Before she finished her question, Amber interrupted her with laughter.
Amber looked up at Jared. "Did you want to defend her?"
Jared's lips twitched. "Do you think it's possible?"
"Of course not." Amber shook her head. "I'm curious what you have done to make her think so."
Jared pressed his thin lips together. "So am I."
Then he looked over at Braylee opposite. "Did you say I wanted to defend you? What's your evidence?"
"Didn't you ask me what my sister had done to me?" Braylee looked at him with hope and answered.
Amber failed to hold back her laughter, giggling.
Jared felt awkward. "Hence, you thought I would defend you by asking such a question?"
"Wouldn't you?" Braylee bit her bottom lip.
Jared scowled at her and said flatly, "You wish. Even if I wanted to defend someone, I would defend Amber. Who do you think you are?"
Braylee paled, looking as if she had got a heavy blow. She staggered backward. "Mr. Farrell! That's…"
She seemed like Jared had cheated on her. Watching her act, Amber and Jared were wordless.
Amber took Jared's arm directly. "Enough. Let's go. She has something wrong with her head. Let's ignore her. The more we talk to her, the more excited she is."
Jared stared at her hand on his arm, having an unconcealed joy on his face. He smiled and said, "Sure."
They were about to turn away.
Braylee finally had a chance to encounter Jared. How could she be willing to let them go so easily?
She gritted her teeth and chased them. In the end, she stopped in front of them. "Wait a minute, Mr. Farrell!"
Jared squinted at her unhappily. "What else?"
"Mr. Farrell, do you have a crush on my sister?" Braylee looked over at Amber, a trace of jealousy flashing through her eyes.
Amber captured it, feeling so helpless. Meanwhile, she felt upset, pinching Jared's arm.
Feeling the pain, Jared raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Amber. "What's up?"
Amber rolled her eyes at him, turning her head to ignore him.
Jared instantly understood what she meant. He chuckled. When he was about to speak, a ringing tone stopped him.
It was from Amber's phone.
Amber pulled it out to check the caller ID. With a smile, she said, "I'll go answer the call. Grandma called. Probably he wants to ask about the shareholder meeting. Uncle Kampwerth is his friend. I guess he has told Grandpa."
"Go ahead." Jared nodded at her slightly.
Amber held the phone and walked away.
