Chapter 112 Just an Acquaintance
Seeing that he was a little angry, Amber lowered her eyelids and smiled lightly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Farrell,
this is my true character. I generally take this attitude towards people who are on the opposite side to
me."
Opposite?
Jared secretly clenched his fists.
It turned out that she still regarded him as an enemy.
He just didn't know if she regarded him as an enemy because of Makenna, or because of himself.
"I will not kick you out of the list of candidates for the project. As I said, there will be no shady deals in
this competition." Jared rubbed his eyebrows and replied.
Amber ruffled her hair, "Well, then I'm relieved, then why are you waiting for me?"
"To take you to the hospital to visit your grandmother." He replied.
Amber was stunned for a moment, just for this?
"Sorry, Mr. Farrell, I won't go with you. I will drive there by myself." She quietly refused.
Jared frowned, just as he was about to say something, the elevator door behind her opened with a
ding, and a cart came out.
The cart was piled high with cardboard boxes, blocking the view of the people pushing the carts.
Similarly, the person pushing the cart couldn't see the front, so he rammed towards Amber.
"Be careful!" Jared's pupils shrank and shouted.
Amber was puzzled, not knowing what had happened.
It wasn't until the next second that she was hit hard on the back by something and threw her body
forward.
In front of her happened to be Jared.
"Get out of the way!" She shouted at him with a frightened look on her face.
However, Jared seemed not to hear, so he didn’t dodge.
If it weren't for the expression on his face that was the same as usual, Amber would have thought that
he was scared and stupid, so he didn't move.
"Well..." Amber rushed into his arms.
Jared hugged her tightly.
It's just that she rushed over with a bit of force, so he also stepped back after the collision.
He took a few steps back and didn't stop until his back hit the wall.
Amber breathed a sigh of relief and quickly came out of his arms, "Are you alright?"
Jared shook his head slightly, and said with his hoarse voice, "It's okay."
"Why is your voice like this?" Amber frowned, "Are you injured?"
His Adam's apple slid slightly, and he did not answer, his eyes wandered unnaturally to other places,
instead of looking at her, he secretly calmed down his fast-beating heart.
As long as he looked at her, he could only think of the softness of her chest, the feeling of her hitting his
chest.
Seeing that Jared didn't speak, Amber thought that he was injured, her heart tightened, and her eyes
kept looking behind him, "Did you hit the place where you were hit by the basketball last time?"
"No, it's already healed." His heartbeat returned to normal, and then he turned his eyes back. Seeing
the nervousness flashing in her eyes, his eyes brightened slightly, and his voice was a little gentle.
Is she worried about him?
It seemed that she didn't care about him as she said.
For some reason, Jared felt inexplicably happy when he thought of this.
She looked at him for a while and made sure he was not hurt. "That's good," she sighed.
Anyway, he ran into the wall to stop her.
She couldn't get over it if he got hurt.
At this moment, a man in yellow overalls came over and bowed to the two of them again and again to
apologize, "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you. I didn't see anyone in front of me, were you guys
injured?"
These two are dressed so well, they look like rich people.
If they get hurt, his wages won't cover it.
She waved her hand. "It's okay. We're not hurt. You can go."
The staff is a little surprised, "You do not blame me?"
"You said you didn't do it on purpose, and I was standing at the door of the elevator, blocking your way,
so how could I blame you? Go on."
"Yes, yes, thank you, Miss, thank you, Sir." Gratefully, the staff bowed to them again and pushed the
cart away.
She said, "I don't blame him and let him go. Why would he thank you?"
Hearing her sour tone, Jared's thin lips curled slightly, thinking she was a little cute.
"Right." Suddenly thinking of something, Amber looked at him.
The curve of his mouth disappeared immediately, "What's wrong?"
"You helped me block the basketball last time at the gym. You saved me twice in total." Amber said with
her two fingers up.
Jared raised his eyebrows, "Then what?"
"Then I forgive you for your indifference to me during the past six years, and I will not be hostile to you.
From now on, we will be acquaintances." She looked up at him. "What do you think?"
Jared squinted. "Just an acquaintance?"
"Well, aren't you satisfied?" She tilted her head. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
He was a little depressed.
Just acquaintances. He could not even be counted as a friend, and he didn't want to be that for some
reason.
But he knew very well that this kind of relationship was the most suitable for her.
Thinking about this, Jared lowered his eyes and replied in a low voice, "Okay."
"Then Mr. Farrell, I'll leave first and go to the hospital to visit grandmother."
Amber smiled slightly and turned to leave.
She paid back two favors without paying anything.
She felt so good and so relaxed.
Looking at her cheerful back, Jared pursed his thin lips.
Is she so happy about being an acquaintance with him?
"Mr. Farrell." Ben's appearance broke the low pressure around him.
His eyes flashed, suppressed the agitation from the bottom of his heart, and turned around, "What's the
matter?"
"I just received a call that something happened to the subsidiary company in Country A, and you need
to return to the group for a meeting to deal with it urgently," Ben replied.
Jared frowned. "I see."
It seemed that he could only visit grandma in the hospital after the meeting.
…
Amber drove to the hospital, walked directly to the Advanced Inpatient Department, and soon came to
the door of the old Mrs. Farrell's ward.
Amber held the flower and the supplements in her left hand, raised her right hand, and knocked on the
door.
The door opened, Mrs. Murphy wanted to ask who it was, but when she saw that the person outside
the door was Amber, she stopped abruptly, and then a surprised smile appeared on her face, "Young
Lady!"
"Dear Mrs. Murphy." Amber greeted Mrs. Murphy with a smile, and then corrected, "I am no longer your
Young Lady."
"In my mind, you are the young lady." Mrs. Murphy looked at her lovingly.
Amber was very moved and wanted to cry, "Thank you so very much. But Mr. Farrell and I are
divorced. You would be disrespectful to Miss Gardner by calling me that, so please just call me by my
name."
Mrs. Murphy sighed, "Okay, then I'll call you Amber."
"Well." Amber nodded, then handed the flower over, "Mrs. Murphy, is grandmother awake?"
"I'm awake." Mrs. Murphy took the flowers and heard Lady Georgia's voice behind her, "Mrs. Murphy,
who is that?"
"It's Amber." Mrs. Murphy turned her head and replied.
Lady Georgia hurriedly said, "Let her in quickly."
"Okay!" Mrs. Murphy responded and invited Amber in.
Amber looked at Lady Georgia on the hospital bed, her eyes filled with love, "Grandma."
"Amber my darling." Lady Georgia smiled at her kindly and was very happy with her arrival.
Amber put down the supplements and walked over, sat down beside the hospital bed, and took her
hand, "Grandma, are you feeling better?"
"I'm better now." Lady Georgia smiled and nodded, then asked, "By the way, how did you know I was in
the hospital?"
