Jared looked at Amber and was a little nervous.
Amber regarded Mrs. Lyon as her biological mother. She might take Mrs. Lyon's words seriously and think that he was really a man who couldn't control himself when women seduced him.
Mrs. Lyon's words might make him in trouble.
Looking at the nervous look on the man's face, Amber certainly knew what he was thinking at the moment. She felt funny, but she pretended to be serious and didn't answer.
Amber's silence made Jared's heart sink. "You didn't take it seriously, did you?"
Noticing that the man was getting more and more nervous, Amber could no longer keep her serious face and burst into laughter. "How could it be possible? Of course, I won't take it seriously."
"Then you just..."
"I did it on purpose." Amber smiled smugly and said, "I did it on purpose to see your reaction. It's funny to see you be scared like that."
Hearing the woman's naughty laughter, Jared took a deep breath.
Fortunately, she didn't take it seriously.
However, she dared to scare him on purpose.
What a naughty girl.
Jared pressed his lips and tickled her in her armpit.
Amber was very ticklish. Being tickled like this, she shrank her body and laughed while dodging. "Jared, what are you doing?"
"Of course, I'm punishing you. How dare you scare me on purpose?" Jared looked at her seriously and tickled her at the same time.
Amber dodged in a hurry, exclaiming and laughing, "I'm just kidding. I know you're not that kind of person, so I didn't keep aunt Amanda's words in mind from the beginning. But when I saw your serious face, I couldn't help teasing you. I want to know how you will react when you see me take it seriously. I don't mean anything else."
"Is that something you can joke about? Don't you know it may make me have a heart problem?" Jared said with a frown.
She had really scared him just now.
He really thought that after they had been together for so long, she still thought that he was just like those vulgar men who could not resist the temptation of the outside world.
But she was just kidding and wanted to scare him.
"I don't believe you." Amber rolled her eyes at Jared and said, "you did have a heart problem. That was in the past. Your heart has already recovered."
She pointed at Jared's chest where his heart was.
Jared held her fingers and lowered his eyelids to hide the sadness in his eyes. He said in a low voice, "But you still can't do that."
Seeing the serious look on his face, Amber also became serious. "Don't you like this kind of joke?"
Jared looked up at her and nodded seriously, "yes, I don't like it. You make me doubt if I have given you a sense of security. At the same time, I also doubt if I have done something wrong, making you think that I may be seduced at any time."
Hearing the man's words, Amber also realized that her joke was a little inappropriate. She hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry. It's my fault. I won't do it again."
Since she was wrong, she had to apologize.
Jared rubbed her head and said, "okay."
"But don't blame aunt Amanda. She doesn't know you as well as I do, so it's normal for her to think so. After all, there are too many men who can't resist the temptation, and she did it for me." Amber looked at Jared with worry.
She was worried that Jared would dislike Mrs. Lyon.
However, Jared suddenly chuckled and said, "of course, I won't. Since I know she did it for you, why should I blame her?"
"Great!" Amber breathed a sigh of relief and said, "that's good. I'm just afraid that you may think aunt Amanda is sowing discord between us."
"I might have thought so if I hadn't known Mrs. Lyon. But I met her last night and gave her so many gifts. I knew from her attitude towards me that she wouldn't do such a thing." Jared stroked her soft cheek and said, "don't think too much."
"Okay." Amber nodded with a smile and felt relieved.
"It's time to get off work?" Jared glanced at her desk.
The desk had been cleaned. Obviously, she had finished her work.
