Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 744

"They look pretty nice," Amber looked back at him and answered. His head clung to hers.

"Really?" He tilted his head to look at her.

Amber nodded. "For real. Although you don't know much about dishing up, the food's colors are fine. You are just a beginner. Good job, Jared."

She thumbed up to him.

Earlier, she had thought he might not cook well even if he had learned cooking.

Now, she realized that she was wrong.

Although she hadn't tasted them, she knew the dishes should be not bad based on their fragrance and color.

Her praise delighted Jared.

He released her waist, pulled a chair, held her hand, and pressed her to sit down. Then he pressed the fork into her hands and urged, "Hurry up and try them. Tell me what you think."

"Okay," Amber answered with a smile.

She was also curious about their tastes.

Amber raised her fork while looking at the dishes as if she was hesitating about which one to start with.

However, she was always determined. Hence, she decided to pick up the dish that was nearest to her.

Jared had cooked three dishes, stir-fried sliced tomato with scrambled egg, stir-fried green pepper with shredded pork, and spicy eggplant.

Those were the most common homemade dishes. Usually, people in the Farrell family wouldn't see them.

After all, the cooks in the Farrell family were Michelin chefs. They were not good at cooking traditional Chinese dishes. Amber guessed that Jared might have never seen those homemade dishes before.

After all, when Ben ordered takeout for him, he wouldn't order those homemade dishes either. Usually, it would be dishes from the finest restaurants.

Hence, Amber was surprised when seeing the everyday homemade dishes on the table.

Later, she understood, though. All cooks learning to cook would start from the most common homemade dishes. Hence, Amber put away her surprise.

She picked up the stir-fried sliced tomato with scrambled egg first. Under Jared's gaze, she slowly put the food into her mouth.

"How do you like it?" Jared sat in the chair next to her and asked instantly.

Amber didn't answer as she was munching. She couldn't speak.

After swallowing the food, she turned to look at him.

Jared seemed as aloof, calm as usual. However, Amber took a closer look and found that he had his heart in his mouth.

She wondered if he was worried that she would give him a negative comment.

Thinking of that, Amber smiled. "I can't answer you now, Jared, because I've only eaten one dish. I need to try others. Then I can tell you the answer."

"Okay. Try others." Jared raised his fork, picked up the food from the other two dishes, and put it on her plate.

Amber tried the other one.

Jared kept gazing at her without a blink.

He didn't ask her if she liked the taste again. However, the longer she ate, the more he frowned. Nervousness was written all over his face.

Noticing the tensed look on his face, Amber was amused.

She guessed no one else besides her could make him tense.

However, she had to admit that she was happy to see him tense because of her.

At least, it meant the evident change in his mood would only be because of her.

After finishing the food on her plate, Amber put down the fork, pulled out the paper napkin, and wiped her lips.

"Amber?" Jared called her. Evidently, he was still waiting for her answer.

However, Amber deliberately ignored him. She looked calm, picked up the water glass, and took a sip.

Jared pressed his thin lips together and called her again, his voice hoarse, "Amber?"
