He walked more than gently and slowly, probably for fear of waking the woman on the sofa.
It took him nearly a minute to walk the short twenty or so steps to the couch, and that carefulness alone was enough to make one's heart flutter.
Arriving at the sofa, Jared crouched down slightly and stared at the woman on the couch.
Amber was lying on her side on the sofa, her arms were folded under her head as a pillow, her legs were slightly curled up, and she was sleeping soundly.
She was probably a little cold, though, as she shivered occasionally.
Noticing this, Jared got up and headed for his desk, grabbed the air conditioning remote and turned up the temperature.
After doing so, he went to his lounge, took out a thicker blanket, and covered Amber with it in case she got cold.
Knowing that Amber might not wake up for a while, Jared didn't linger on the couch much longer. After ruffling her hair out of her face, he headed to his desk, ready to work on his papers and wait for her to wake up.
It was a two-hour wait.
When Amber woke up, it was already 3 pm, and her stomach was starting to growl with hunger.
She opened her eyes, and the first thing she saw was an expensive and luxurious coffee table.
At first, her mind was a little confused about where she was.
But then she saw the black tea on the coffee table and realized that she was in Jared's office.
After sending Jared a message, she sat here and fell asleep without noticing.
There was no telling how long she had been asleep.
Amber was about to reach for her phone to check the time when her hand moved and something fell off her and onto the floor in front of the couch.
"Hmm?" Amber looked down and realized that it was a blanket!
But how could there be a blanket on her?
When she fell asleep, there was nothing on her, so the blanket must have been draped over her by someone.
And since she had locked the door inside Jared's office earlier, naturally, only one person could have come in and draped a blanket over her - the owner of this office.
Jared!
So, he'd come back from a meeting?
With that in mind, Amber immediately sat up, picked up the blanket and turned her head from side to side, looking for him.
However, after looking around, there was no sign of Jared.
So, he didn't come back?
Or had he come back but had left again?
Amber's eyelids drooped, and the loss was visible on her face.
Suddenly, there was a sound of a window opening behind her.
Amber stiffened, immediately dropped the blanket she was holding and turned around.
Jared came in off the balcony with his phone, closing the balcony door as he whispered something to the other end of the phone, not noticing that she had woken up and was looking at him.
Amber had happiness written in her eyes and a big smile.
Great, so he was back and not gone, just on the balcony on the phone.
It was so cold on the balcony, and it was even harder up here.
But he chose to go to the balcony to make a phone call. He didn't want to wake her up.
What a silly man!
"Jared!" Amber took a breath, collected her emotions, and called out to the man in front of the balcony's floor-to-ceiling window in a soft voice.
The man was stunned for a moment and took the phone away from his ear, and turned his head towards Amber in the next second.
Amber was standing there, smiling at him, her smile bright and sultry in its beauty.
Jared's pupils contracted slightly, returning to their natural state but with a darker hue.
He raised his hand and waved at her to show that he heard her, then back to the phone again and said a few words to the other end of the line before hanging up the phone and walking quickly towards her.
