Chapter 488 Amber Decided Not to See Him
Jared didn't know Amber was upset. Upon hearing her answer, he knew she wouldn't show up in front
of him in the future, feeling upset.
Although his purpose had been achieved, he still felt frustrated.
However, he didn't show it on his face. Instead, he smiled and said, "Good. I hope you can stick to your
word."
Amber frowned. "Of course, I will. You don't need to remind me. After all, I don't love you. How can I
long for appearing in your face?"
Her declaration of not loving him stabbed into Jared's heart like a stagger.
He clenched his fists more tightly. His face looked stern. Then he said in a sullen tone, "Ben, open the
car door."
"Yes, Mr. Farrell," answered Ben. He pulled out the car key to unlock the door.
Jared pulled out one hand from the pocket and was about to pull the door open.
Suddenly, a car rushed out of the corner behind Amber.
The driver seemed not to expect to see anyone here. He was shocked and forgot to step on the brake.
Amber was too upset to notice the danger, so she didn't dodge.
Jared saw the scene, and his expression changed instantly. He grabbed her wrist and dragged her into
his arms forcibly.
"Ouch..." Amber let out a cry in pain as she bumped into his arms and her forehead hit his tie clip.
However, Jared turned around before she rubbed her forehead while holding her protectively.
Amber's back hit the car door of Jared's Maybach. He guarded her between the door and his chest.
They were in a very intimate position.
The driver in the car that almost knocked down Amber breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Jared's
movements. He stopped his vehicle and trotted over hurriedly. He kept bowing and apologizing, "I'm
sorry, Mr. Farrell. I'm sorry, Ma'am. I didn't mean to do it. I'm terribly sorry."
Jared let go of Amber and turned around to look at him. His face was as cold as the arctic ice, fearing
the driver. "Which department are you from?" Jared asked.
"I... I work in the planning department..." the driver answered fearfully in a low voice.
He hadn't expected to be so unlucky. His car almost hit a person, and Mr. Farrell had caught him.
The driver thought he would lose his job now.
"Ben, I'll leave him to you," Jared narrowed his eyes and ordered in a cold tone.
Ben nodded. "All right, Mr. Farrell."
Then he looked over at that man. "Come with me."
Ben turned around and walked forward.
The driver kept bending over and dragged his trembling legs to follow him.
Only Amber and Jared were left on the scene.
It wasn't until then that Amber came to realize what had happened.
That was a narrow squeak!
And he had saved her again.
That meant she owed him another favor...
She didn't think she could return all his favors.
"Well... Thank you for your help just now..." Amber thanked him in a low voice, pinching the hemline of
her blouse.
Jared put his hands back into his pockets. "It's nothing. I just don't want you to have an accident here.
Then the Farrell Group has to be responsible."
Amber gaped at him in disbelief.
She wondered if he saved her because he didn't want to let his company be responsible for her
accident instead of worried about her.
Biting her bottom lip, Amber said, "I see. No matter what, you've saved me. I... I'll repay you for all your
help."
"Up to you," Jared said casually. He turned around to look at Ben and the bowing driver nearby in
silence.
"Is it done, Ben?" Jared asked, frowning.
Ben nodded. "Yes, Mr. Farrell. I'll be right there."
Then he spoke to the driver again and returned to the Maybach.
"Mr. Farrell, the driver is just an ordinary employee of our planning department. He drove over the
speed limit and didn't honk to remind the pedestrian, so I asked the HR department to fire him. Also, I
contacted the traffic control department. They'll temporarily suspend his driving license," Ben stood in
front of Jared and reported to him about the punishment for that driver.
Jared hummed. "Okay. Let's go."
"Yes, Mr. Farrell." Ben nodded and pulled the rear door open for him.
Jared bent over and sat in.
Ben closed the door and said to Amber, "Ms. Reed, please excuse us."
"Okay." Amber twitched her lips. Then she stepped back to make way.
Ben nodded at her politely. He pulled the door of the driver's seat open, sat in, and drove away.
Amber watched the Maybach go far. Until it disappeared in her sigh, she slightly lowered her head and
walked to her car.
She came here for a reason as she wanted to know why Jared didn't want her to return his favor.
She had got the answer now, but she wasn't happy.
She was still bothered by his words...
"Don't show up in front of him..."
Amber clenched her hands and felt ironical. Sure enough, men were always double-faced.
Earlier, he told her how much he loved her and wanted to win her heart back. However, he didn't want
to see her anymore just because she didn't take good care of him.
She also didn't want to see him anymore.
On the other side, in the Maybach.
Jared put away his disguise in front of Amber, emanating a low pressure.
Ben looked up to check on him through the rearview mirror. He said hesitantly, "Mr. Farrell, don't you
feel upset when talking to Ms. Reed like that?"
"What?" Jared uttered a word coldly.
Ben turned the steering wheel and answered, "You blamed her for not taking care of you as
professionally as a nursing worker. I could tell Ms. Reed looked pretty embarrassed."
"I know. I said that to explain why I suddenly stopped her from taking care of me," Jared answered
when rubbing between his eyebrows, slightly closing his eyes.
After all, he couldn't tell her he had decided to let go of her and stop approaching her because he
couldn't live long. He was afraid she would be hurt after she loved him again. Hence, he stopped her Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
from looking after him.
"That makes sense." Ben nodded. Then he recalled something and continued, "You asked her not to
appear in your face anymore. Aren't you afraid to upset her?"
Jared opened his eyes, peering out the window. "She won't. She doesn't love me, so she won't be
upset. Probably, she would feel lucky as she doesn't need to see someone who has hurt her before."
"Really..." Ben withdrew his gaze in silence. Jared couldn't tell if Ben believed his explanation or not.
Jared put down his hand on the door and changed the subject. "By the way, call the daughter of the
Boyd family and ask her to be my date tomorrow for a party. Tell her not to make trouble and behave
herself. Then I'll agree to work with her father."
"OK, Mr. Farrell." Ben nodded.
Jared had already asked Amber to be his date for this party earlier.
However, since their relationship had become like this, Ben couldn't understand why Jared didn't want
to take Amber to the party anymore.
Soon, they arrived at the hospital.
Ben parked the car and turned around to Jared in the backseat, only to find Jared seemed to have
fallen asleep. He reminded Jared, "Mr. Farrell, we've arrived."
Jared opened his eyes in silence. He got down the car.
They arrived at the cardiology department. The checkup started.
Elias was also there. He looked at Jared up and down and said, "You look pale. I don't think you have
followed my instructions and rested well."
Jared replied flatly, "The company needs me."
