Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 636

"You're back." Amber put down her phone and stood up.

Jared nodded and uttered gently, "I'm back."

He really liked hearing the words "You're back" from Amber. It made him feel like she was his wife waiting for him at home.

"What did you buy?" Amber looked at his right hand and saw a blue towel bulging with something in his hand.

Amber looked at him in confusion. "Why did you buy a towel?"

"I didn't buy it." Jared walked over and sat down. "It's a gift from the concession stand there."

He looked at the stand.

"Oh," drawled Amber as she looked at Jared exquisitely. "A gift?"

"Yes." Jared nodded.

Amber pursed her lips. "If I see right, the cashier is a woman. Why did you keep the gift from a woman? Are you afraid of hurting her feelings?"

Hearing the hints of jealousy in her voice, Jared raised his eyebrows.

He looked down at the towel in his hand, then at Amber's unhappy face. He couldn't help but give a little chuckle.

Amber's eyes widened. "Are you laughing? What's so funny?"

"Alright, I won't laugh anymore." Jared coughed lightly and immediately ceased to laugh.

However, his eyes were laughing.

"Are you jealous?" He looked at the woman and asked.

Amber's expression changed. She turned her head another way and replied, "Who's jealous? I'm not jealous."

Jared could tell that she was too stubborn to admit it. He patted the seat beside him and observed, "You were mistaken. I bought all of the goods, which helped her achieve the performance goal ahead of time. So she just gave me what I needed for free."

That explained it.

It wasn't because the cashier sent him as a gift for his good-looking.

That made sense. After all, no woman would send a towel to a man she liked.

A blush overspread Amber's cheeks when she realized she was jealous. She felt a little embarrassed. "Sorry, I was wrong about you."

She apologized in a soft voice.

Jared put down the towel, stood up, and suddenly rubbed her hair. "Alright, you don't have to apologize to me. On the contrary, I'm glad that you got me wrong."

"Huh?" Amber looked up at him. "Why?"

"Because it proves that you're jealous. Doesn't that mean you care about me?" Jared looked Amber in the eye.

Amber lowered her head slightly and said nothing.

Jared looked at her reddened ears and broke into a low laugh. Then, he pulled her to sit down, picked up the towel on the side, and held it toward Amber's face.

Amber was shocked. "What are you doing?"

"Your eyes need a cold compress." Jared put the towel on her eyes.

Instantly, Amber felt the cold and closed her eyes.

It turned out ice cubes were in the towel.

"So, the one you wanted in the first place is ice?" Amber asked.

Jared nodded. "Your eyes are slightly swollen from crying too much. The ice will help to reduce the swelling. Or your eyes will swell up like bulbs tomorrow."

"You're the one whose eyes will look like bulbs," Amber rebuked.

Jared replied seriously, "I won't because I didn't cry."

"Are you proud of that?" Amber's lips twitched.

Jared chuckled. "Alright, don't move. Or the towel will slip down to your cheek."

Amber snorted and sat up straight.
