Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 80

As Hayden buckled his seat belt, he said with a smile, "Nothing, I just told her a horror story."

"Do I look that stupid?" Amber looked at him, feeling speechless.

Hayden started the car with an aggrieved look. "What I said is the truth. There's nothing I could do if you don't believe me."

"Har, har." Amber rolled her eyes and retrieved her look.

Hayden suddenly turned around and took a quick glance at her. "Miss Reed, I suddenly realized that you look a little like Mrs. Gardner."

"Huh?" Amber was a little confused. "I look like her?"

"Yeah."

"Nah!" Amber shook her head. "Don't be ridiculous."

"I'm not, I'm serious. Your face shape and eyes really look like hers." Hayden nodded with a straight face.

He then added, "You two almost look like twins. No one would doubt if you claim you're mother and daughter."

Amber was now sure that Hayden was not kidding and she was stunned.

But soon, she returned to calmness and waved her hand. "So what? There's nothing strange to have two people looking alike in this world."

"That's true," Hayden answered.

Neither of them took this finding to heart and they soon forgot about it.

Amber lowered the car window and let the cold wind blew on her face. "By the way, I have a question for you."

"What is it?" Hayden listened to the radio music, and he swung gently with the rhythm.

Amber rolled her eyes at the irresponsible driver and asked, "Which friend of yours has the WhatsApp name ‘Z'?"

"Sorry?" The music was too loud and Hayden couldn't hear her clearly for a moment.

Amber pinched the part between her eyebrows with a headache and shouted, "Who is Z?"

After a sharp screech, the car jerked to a halt. Both of them flew forward and were pulled back to their seats by the seat belt before they hit the windscreen.

Amber was so frightened that her face turned cadaverous. She only calmed down after a while. She turned around angrily and slapped Hayden on the arm. "What are you doing?"

Hayden knew he had almost caused an accident. He released the steering wheel, wiped his face and coughed with embarrassment. "Sorry, my mistake."

If she hadn't asked about Z, he wouldn't be so shocked that he suddenly stepped on the brake.

Amber massaged her temples. "OK, you'd better tell Stella your real identity yourself. I can't afford a driver like you."

"Oh no, you can't dismiss me like that just because of one driving mistake I made." Hayden looked at her with a smile.

Amber sneered, "Just drive!"

Hayden shrugged and drove again, but he was secretly looking at her from sideways. "You were asking me who Z is, right?"

"Yes." Amber nodded.

Hayden's eyes rolled. "Why do you want to ask about him?"

Amber looked down to conceal her expression. She said blandly, "Nothing. I've made friends with him by coincidence, and he's helped me twice, so I want to know his situation. He said he's your friend, so that's why I asked you."

"Is that so?" Hayden didn't dare to look at her for fear that she would see the nervousness in his eyes. "He is indeed my friend, but we're not so close, and I don't even know his name. We only drank together for a few times. He has gone abroad now."

"Is that so?" Amber nodded.

Since he had gone abroad, that meant she couldn't see him anymore.

For a moment, Amber was relieved.

In fact, she was kinda worried about encountering him one day as the situation would be awkward. After all, she was quite close to Hayden.

Now that he was abroad, she won't have to worry.

Yet not knowing why, she felt an inexplicable sense of loss in heart.

Amber looked at the scenery outside the window and didn't speak.

Hayden slightly heaved a sigh of relief, but he was planning to look for Jared and take advantage of him later.

After all, it took him a lot of effort to hide Jared's identity.
