Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 838

She then pulled her hand out and sat down on the sofa, “You are doing this for the company and not cheating on me, so you don’t have to feel bad just because you can’t spend time with me. I’m not the type of person who has to be around you at all times. What’s more, I got my company and wouldn’t be able to do the same thing when I got busy. Well, should I also be sorry for you?”

“Nope.” Jared shook his head.

“Well, that’s it then.” Amber patted the spot next to her and motioned Jared to sit down, “As long as you are not going to cheat on me or fall in love with someone else, I wouldn’t feel that you are wrong. We are both adults and have our own careers apart from our relationship, so it’s inevitable that we would neglect each other over our careers, but it doesn’t mean that we are wrong. All in all, you don’t have to feel bad for not being able to accompany me.”

Jared gazed at Amber and knew that she was saying this to spare his feelings. He got moved and lifted the corner of his mouth, “Okay, I won’t say this again.”

“Let’s get started.” Amber beamed and examined the container in his hands, “What did you get?”

Jared put the container on the desk and opened it, “I passed by a Hunan Cuisine Restaurant when I got back and remembered that you mentioned you wanted to eat this, so I got some and brought them here.”

Amber was amazed and smiled, “Wonderful! I haven’t had Hunan delicacies for a long time and was craving the spiciness. Thank you, Jared.”

Jared’s smile deepened, “Let’s taste them and see if you like them.”

He put out the dishes one by one.

Amber instantly noticed that these dishes were all signature dishes and nodded, “I love them all.”

“It’s great. Let’s dig in.” Jared then got Amber a piece of fish, “This is my first time trying these dishes, so I don’t know if they are tasteful, but they look good.”

“Well, you got them. How bad can they be?” Amber cracked a smile and then ate the fish.

Her mouth was instantly filled with the hotness and spiciness of the dishes. Her face immediately got reddened and her eyes started welling up.

It was telling how hot the Spicy Boiled Fish was.

Amber opened her mouth and repeated while fanning her mouth with her hand, “This is hot. So hot.”

Jared frowned when he saw Amber’s burned face, hurriedly put down his chopsticks, and gave her a glass of water, “Have some water.”

Amber took the glass and gulped it down.

The hotness in her mouth finally got watered down and she let out a long breath.

She then put down the glass, blinked her watery eyes, and smiled at Jared, “I haven’t had such spicy dishes for a long time. I really can’t handle its hotness now.”

Jared compressed his lips when he noticed that Amber’s eyes also got reddened, “Don’t have these spicy dishes any more. I will ask someone to get some light over. These would be bad for your stomach.”

“No!” Amber immediately blocked the dishes with her hands in the air and stopped Jared from taking the dishes out, “I just couldn’t handle its hotness for the moment since I haven’t had them for a long time. It will settle in once I get a few more bites. We don’t need to order some other dishes. These are great. Though they are spicy, they taste amazing.”

“I’m afraid that your stomach might act up.” Jared frowned.

He was regretting getting these hot dishes.

He wanted to dote on her, but he got to prioritize her health.

Amber shook her head, “Don’t worry about me. I had much spicier food before and was fine. Moreover, I’m a grown-up and would know to what extent I can handle it.”

No matter what, she got to finish these dishes and didn’t want Jared to take them away.

Jared read her thoughts from her eyes and sighed, “Okay then, but you have to promise that you mean it and if your stomach gets weird, you…”

“You can then punish whatever you want.” Amber jumped in and promised.

Jared squinted his eyes, “Really? Punish you whatever I want?”

Jared’s eyes lighted up.
