Chapter 889 It's All Jared's Fault
It was all Jared's fault.
If it hadn't been for him, she wouldn't have fallen asleep or slept so long. She slept through her afternoon trip to Goldstone.
She was so pissed off!
No, she was gonna go after him!
Amber turned to her side and turned on the bedside light.
For an instant, the room was as bright as day.
Amber could see clearly, too. She put down her phone and pulled back the covers to get out of bed.
As soon as her feet hit the ground, her legs suddenly gave way and she fell to her knees with her hands on the ground.
Fortunately, there was a thick carpet on the floor, and when Amber fell to her knees, it didn’t hurt. She was only blushing and
embarrassed.
The reason why she would be like this, in addition to a day without food and lack of strength, was more because of some
uncomfortable places. As she was going down, she tore into it, and that was why her legs gave way and she fell to her knees.
Looking down at her knees and her hands on the floor, Amber started to say Jared's name over and over again as her eyes
turned red.
It was Jared! It was his fault!
If it weren't for him, would she be so wronged and fall to the ground, and kneel on the ground?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt angry and wronged.
Amber bit her lower lip, tears literally welling up in her eyes.
She had never been so embarrassed in her life.
And since she met this guy Jared, she had been through all kinds of things.
He was really her Nemesis. She owed him in her last life!
Amber took a deep breath, held back her tears, grabbed the edge of the bed with both hands, and gently pulled herself up. Then
she sat down on the edge of the bed.
She was wearing pajamas, which Jared probably changed after he brought her back.
She bent down and scooped up the legs of her pajama pants to see if her knees were all right.
After all, it was pretty loud a bang when she went down on her knees.
Sometimes even though it didn’t hurt, it could leave a mark.
So, she needed to take a good look.
She picked up her trouser legs and revealed two slender white legs, which looked particularly attractive under the light as if they
were white jade.
Amber took a close look at her knee and found that it was fine. With relief, she lowered her trouser leg and got up to support the
wall as she made her way out of the room.
She had to!
She was so weak and hungry, and she had no strength, if she didn't hold on to something, she might fall again.
It was after 7:00, Jared was not in his room, and she didn’t know if he was in the living room or outside.
If he had been in the living room, she would have bitten him up to vent her grievance over the fall.
Amber walked out of the bedroom and into the living room, holding on to the wall.
The lights in the living room were bright, suggesting that Jared was in the apartment.
But there was no one in the drawing-room, so he was either in the kitchen or in the second bedroom which had been converted
into a study.
Then, Amber leaned against the wall and changed direction toward the study on her left.
She went to the door of the study. The door was ajar, and a beam of light seeped out of the crack. And there was the faint sound
of keyboards.
This made Amber absolutely certain that the culprit was inside.
Amber took a breath and pushed the door open.
She opened the door very quietly, almost noiselessly.
So, the men in the study did not know that the study door was open. He was still sitting behind the computer, looking serious
about business.
Amber stepped softly into the study, leaning on the wall, as if afraid to disturb the man.
In the past, the study was hers alone. She could enter it if she wanted to. She was not afraid of the heavy steps, because they
would not disturb anyone.
Now the study was half divided. There was a desk, a computer, a chair, and, most of all, a shelf full of books she didn't like or
understand.
And all the extra stuff was Jared's.
Jared had so much more stuff than she did, that her desk and her computer were all in one corner of the study. It only took up a
third of the study, and the rest was Jared's.
It was as if she owned the study and Jared took it from her, making her a little assistant with just a little office space.
More than that, when she came in, she had to be very quiet, so as not to disturb him.
It made her feel a little unbalanced.
But then she thought about the closet in her bedroom. Her clothes made up about two-thirds of it, and Jared's clothes made up only about a third.
His clothes, which were far more expensive than hers, were confined to a third of the wardrobe. Her mood suddenly got better at the thought.
Amber lifted the corner of her mouth and coughed.
The man behind the plush desk heard the noise, stopped tapping, and looked up at the source.
Jared's solemn, expressionless face softened and his eyes brightened with joy as he saw Amber standing a short distance across, “Hey!”
He got up, pushed back his chair, and strode over to Amber.
He stopped in front of Amber and looked at her, “Why didn't you call me when you woke up?”
Amber glared at him, “How do | know where you are? How do | call you?”
“You can call me on the phone?’ Jared said.
Amber shook her head, “No need. | can get out of bed without calling anyone. Besides, why should | call you? I’m not crippled,
why should | ask you to take care of me?”
“Crippled? Don't talk nonsense!” Jared poked her between the eyes and frowned, “You're fine. I'm just happy to take care of you. Are you hungry?”
Amber looked down and touched her stomach, which gave a powerful growl.
Jared chuckled, “You look hungry. Let’s go have dinner first”
He took her by the hand and led her out.
Amber looked over her shoulder at his desk, “Aren't you busy? You are so serious, and | guess you still have some work to do.
Then why don't you go on, | can make my own food”
“No, it’s not very important. | can do it tomorrow.” Jared opened the study door and answered dryly.
His work could never be as important as she was.
He wanted to spend more time with her than with work.
In the living room, Jared pulled back the chair at the dining table so Amber could sit down.
When she had sat down, he said, “Give me a minute. I'll get you the food from the kitchen”
“What?” At this, Amber stiffened slightly and looked at him, “Dinner’s ready?”
Jared nodded, “Yeah. It’s ready. Just wait a minute”
Patting her on the shoulder, he turned and walked back to the kitchen.
Soon after, Jared arrived with a dinner of meat and vegetables and a delicious chicken soup.
Jared handed her the cutlery, “Please enjoy it”
“What about you?” Amber asked.
Jared sat down opposite her, “I've already eaten. Go ahead, try some of these dishes. | just learned them”
Amber paused slightly and looked at the man in surprise, “You made it?”
“Of course” Jared lifted his chin slightly with undisguised pride.
Amber gave a laugh, “I don’t even need to taste it to know it tastes good. You're a quick learner, and | trust you on that”
With that, she put a piece of meat in her mouth.
