Hayden sensed a hint of pity in her tone. The corners of his mouth twitched. "Amber, you want me to be disabled? No wonder you stamped on my foot so hard. I thought you just didn't control your strength well. Who knows you did it on purpose!"
He pointed at her in shock.
Amber curled her lips and snorted, "you said those words to sow dissension between me and Jared, which is disrespect to both of us. Do you know that?"
She was indeed a little angry just now.
Hayden spoke ill of Jared and described Jared as a moody person who would lose his temper and even hit her.
Jared was her boyfriend, so she didn't allow anyone to say that.
Besides, he was Jared's friend.
Secondly, Hayden asked her to abandon Jared and be with him. Then what did he regard she as?
Was she a wanton woman who would change boyfriends at any time?
Definitely, she was angry after hearing these words.
So she couldn't help but give him a kick just now as a lesson.
Looking at Amber's cold face, Hayden realized that he had said something wrong. Feeling guilty, he touched his nose and said, "well, I was just kidding."
"You can't kid like that." Amber glared at him.
Hayden knew he was in the wrong. He lowered his head and sat down beside her. "I know. I won't do that again. I don't want to be disabled and unable to walk in the future."
He pointed at his foot.
The leather shoe on his foot was shiny before.
But after being stepped on by her shoe just now, there was not only dust on the surface but also some wrinkles. It seemed that it did not match the other shoe at all.
Amber couldn't help but burst into laughter. "That's good. Some jokes can't be played at will."
"I see. I won't do it again." Hayden waved his hand and lowered his eyelids to hide his sadness.
Well, he was indeed joking just now, but meanwhile, he said something real with this joke.
He really wanted to test how much she loved Jared.
So he deliberately told her that Jared had a bad temper and might hit her. He wanted to see if she would believe his words and doubt Jared.
If she had doubts about Jared and had a faint feeling that Jared would hit a woman, it meant that her love for Jared was not as deep as it had been six years ago. If so, her relationship with Jared wouldn't last long and they would break up one day.
Then his chance would come again, wouldn't it?
He knew that it was not good for him to slander Jared, but everyone was selfish. There was nothing wrong to fight for himself. He just slandered Jared and didn't do anything to hurt Jared. He didn't think he had gone too far.
Besides, he had thought that if she really didn't have a deep love for Jared and he still had hope, he could continue to do something and try to separate them as soon as possible, in case they would suffer more when they broke up and become miserable in the future.
But at the same time, if they loved each other deeply, he would give up completely.
Now it turned out that Amber really loved Jared very much. She not only had a firm trust in Jared but also didn't allow others to speak ill of Jared. It was so enviable that she even protected Jared like this.
It seemed that he was really going to give up this time.
Hayden forced a bitter smile.
He had told Jared earlier that he would give up, but he was still unwilling in his heart. This unwillingness became stronger as he met Amber just now. Therefore, he decisively forgot what he had promised to Jared before and decided to have a try.
