Amber Reed was not joking - she was serious.
After all, she was trying to make Jared Farrell feel better. But now, it didn’t seem to work, so she was inevitably not feeling great.
It was the feeling of neither wanted nor appreciated.
Without a doubt, she would also be unhappy.
Seeing that Amber wasn’t joking, Jared straightened his back, and his expression condensed. Then he shook his head, “Babe, I am feeling better now. Don’t worry, okay?”
Amber wasn’t sure what to feel, looking at the man sitting upright.
Of course, she was aware - Jared only was saying so because he had noticed her changed attitude.
He would not want her to be unhappy, either.
They had the moment, and it was time to move on.
“If you are not upset anymore, you should be smiling.” Amber looked at Jared.
Jared’s thin lips twitched, showing a smile, kind of forced.
Amber nodded, “Great!”
He had squeezed out an ugly smile.
But Amber always knew that Jared barely liked to smile - he would smile lightly when he was really feeling in love, or deeply touched.
Typically he would never smile when requested.
But he was willing to force a smile on his face for her, which was rare.
So Amber didn’t give him a hard time afterward - she went along with him.
The atmosphere in the car finally returned to what it used to be right after they had headed out as if nothing had happened just now.
Jared moved on, and Amber wouldn’t bring it up again.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the police station.
Amber Reed and Jared Farrell went in hand in hand, and after registering in the lobby, someone took them to see Alice.
Unfortunately, the police officers were interrogating Alice at the moment. It was not a good time for a meeting.
Amber Reed was not disappointed as she knew the rules and was willing to follow them. She walked to the row of chairs with Jared, and they sat down to wait.
It was not too late to go in and meet Alice once the police finished with her.
As soon as Amber and Jared sat down on the row of chairs, a man in a suit came toward them. It was a bit shocking.
Amber Reed felt a shadow in front of her. She looked up and saw a man with glasses. Although he looked ordinary, he had confidence on his face, as if everything was under his control. He was looking at Jared and Amber, smiling.
That smile was polite and warm. Logically speaking, it was supposed to make people feel good.
But Amber didn’t like this person but rather resented him.
She frowned and asked, “Excuse me, but do I know you, sir?”
This person had an extraordinary temperament - the suit he was in was from a designer brand. He must be someone unusual.
Amber didn’t know or recognize the man, but Jared by her side did.
Because he had recognized the lawyer, his face turned a little unsightly.
“Are you Alice’s lawyer?” Before the man could answer Amber’s question, Jared had already opened his mouth and told the man’s identity directly.
“Lawyer?” There was a hint of surprise in Amber’s eyes. Then she stared at the man in front of her.
It turned out that this person was a lawyer - well, he did look like one.
Unfortunately, he was indeed Alice’s lawyer.
No wonder Amber didn’t like him, at first sight, she had seen this man.
