Chapter 513 She's My Cousin
Chapter 513 She's My Cousin
Elena threw herself around with one hand taken by Hayden and then put her hand back onto his
shoulder. She asked as if she didn't understand Hayden's words, "What do you mean?"
"Elena, I'll be straightforward. You and Jared rushed over to us to switch partners with me when all
dancers were spinning, right?" Hayden looked down at her with a gloomy face.
Elena smiled, "Alas, you are such a smart boy, aren't you? I have to help Jared. He is my cousin. I
should help him to woo the girl he loves."
"But it's not fair to take her away from me in such a despicable way," Hayden pushed her away and
stopped dancing.
His move made Elena almost fall down on the ground. But she wasn't annoyed, Instead, she giggled, "I
don't think so. You are not Amber's boyfriend, so it's a fair competition, but Jared got me as his helper.
And, Hayden, I think you know they love each other. Otherwise, Jared wouldn't have succeeded in
taking Amber away so easily."
If Amber did not love Jared, Amber wouldn't have followed him. She might have even given Jared a
slap on face.
But Amber didn't do anything to resist him. She followed Jared the moment Jared took her.
That meant Amber did want to go with him.
Hayden also knew it.
He turned to Jared and Amber, who had already started to dance nearby. Then he clenched his hands
into fists and said reluctantly, "I know they love each other, but…"
"If you know it, why don't you give up?" Elena interrupted him, "I know you love Amber. But she doesn't
love you. You don't have to be obsessed with her. You will probably end up witnessing they getting
married again. You should let her go."
Hayden lowered his head.
He knew she was right.
But he had no faintest idea to give up.
After all, it was the first time for him, a famous playboy, to fall in love with a girl.
Elena took his arms and said, "That's fine. We can talk about this later. Let's dance. The song will finish
soon."
"No, I won't. I'm not in the mood for dancing right now. Maybe you can dance by yourself, Elena."
Hayden shook her hand off and left the dancing floor
Then he walked directly towards the exit.
Staring at his back, Elena stuck her tongue out towards him and then murmured, "Alas, I hurt the
heart of an innocent boy. Now I feel I'm guilty. I've done a lot for you, Jared."
On the other side, Amber calmed down and tried to pull her hand off Jared's.
But Jared's hand looked as if it were pinned on hers. She just couldn't pull her hand off.
ae he also held her hand quite gently. Though she couldn't pull her hand off, she didn't feel her hand
urt.
"Get off from me, Jared!" Amber frowned and warned in a low voice.
Jared looked at her, "Don't struggle. I haven't recovered yet and I can only use one hand. If you keep
struggling, my arm may get displaced."
"Then you deserve it. Why would you come to the dancing floor with one arm still in the sling?” Amber
had an angry look at him.
Jared lowered his eyelids, "Sorry, I feel like dancing all of a sudden."
He couldn't stand to watch Amber dancing with Hayden.
But he couldn't walk over to them and force Hayden to leave Amber, which might ruin his
grandmother's birthday party.
So, he had no choice but to take Amber away in a secret way through a little trick.
But Amber had no idea what he had in mind, but when she heard Jared said he felt like dancing, she
thought he wanted to dance with Elena. Then anger arose again in her mind. Her face turned dark and
she said, "If Mr. Farrell wants to dance, then why did you take me here? You can well let me go and
find your Elena."
Jared raised his eyebrows, "Why should I, my jealous girl?"
"What?" Amber looked like a cat whose tail was stepped by someone.
Her face changed a bit and she could not look into Jared's eyes when she said, "What are you talking
about? Who's jealous? How could I be jealous?"
She didn't love him. Then why would she be jealous?
Yes, she didn't feel jealous at all!
Amber bit her lips and nodded.
Jared looked at her and then smiled, "Yes, you are not jealous. But now I don't have to find Elena."
"Why?" Amber was a bit confused.
Jared opened his mouth and lied with a poker face, "My cousin wants to dance with Hayden."
"Wait...What did you say? Your cousin?” Amber looked up at him surprisedly.
He said Elena was his cousin?
Jared nodded, "Yes, Elena is my cousin. Her name is Elena Zachary. Her mother was a cousin of my
mother, so she is my cousin."
Cousin... Elena was his cousin!
So, she was not the girl Jared loved.
She misunderstood his words ...
Over this, Amber bit her lips. Her head slanted and her face flushed. Now she felt embarrassed yet
also a bit happy.
She had no idea why she was happy, but she knew that now she felt much more relieved.
She felt as if the heavy stone pressing on her heart was suddenly removed.
Noticing the faint smile on Amber's face, Jared looked at her lovely face tenderly.
Now he really wanted to hold her in his arms.
But he could not do that at this moment.
He needed to suppress his desire for her for some time.
Jared told himself in his mind.
After a while, the music ended, which meant the dancing party was over.
Amber and Jared stood shoulder to shoulder, and did a curtain call hand in hand to all the guests who
didn't dance.
The guests present began to burst into applause.
Amongst the applause, Amber stood straight and pulled her hand off Jared's.
Staring at his empty hand, a sense of regret flashed in Jared's eyes and soon faded away.
Then they saw Lady Georgia was supported by Mrs. Murphy to walk towards the stage. Seemingly, she
was about to give a speech.
Jared turned back to say to Amber, "My grandmother will deliver a speech on stage. I must leave to
say something to her. You can have some snacks in the rest area."
Amber nodded.
Then Jared walked over to his grandmother.
And Amber turned away to the rest area.
She hadn't danced in a long time. So, now it was hard for her to finish a complete dance. She must
take a rest.
In the rest area, Amber sat on the sofa with a cup of juice in hand. She sipped the juice bit by bit with
eyes fixed on the stage, where Jared was talking to Lady Georgia.
Suddenly, something occurred to her and she held the cup still in hand. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
Where was Hayden?
She had lost Hayden since she was taken away by Jared.
She put down the juice and looked around to find Hayden.
But she failed to find Hayden. Guilt bubbled up inside her.
