Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber)
Chapter 635 Pretending to Be Asleep

Amber hurriedly took off her glasses and turned to look, only to find that Jared's head was pressed against her shoulder. She shook her shoulders and whispered, "Jared?"

The man didn't respond.

Amber poked her head forward and saw his closed eyes and quiet face in the light emanating from the big screen.

Was Jared asleep?

Amber was a little surprised as well as speechless.

Was the movie really so dull that he fell asleep?

Yet, this film billed itself as a spy drama while the actual plot actually revolved around a love story.

The theme might not even appeal to ordinary men, let alone Jared.

"Since you don't like this genre, why did you choose to watch this film?" murmured Amber. She looked at the man's sleeping face and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

But she didn't intend to wake Jared up. The movie had just started for half an hour, and there was still an hour and a half before it ended. If she woke him up, he would undoubtedly fall asleep later. So, she might as well just let him sleep.

Amber reached out to gather Jared's coat around him.

Although the movie room had heating, people would also feel cold when they fell asleep.

She didn't wear a coat, so she only gathered Jared's own coat to keep him warm.

Then Amber put on her glasses and continued watching the movie.

The moment she turned her head to the big screen, the man sleeping on her shoulder suddenly opened his eyes.

Jared didn't move his head but only looked down.

His lips lifted slightly when he saw that his coat was buttoned up.

He had indeed fallen asleep just now, but Amber had also awakened him.

However, he didn't open his eyes because he wanted to see if Amber would directly wake him up.

To his surprise, she didn't do that but let him sleep, buttoned up his coat for fear that he would be cold, and she even gently repositioned his head to rest more comfortably on her shoulder. Amber's warmhearted action made Jared want to open his eyes immediately and hug her.

But he couldn't. In Amber's eyes, he was asleep. If he opened his eyes, she would instantly realize that he was deliberately testing her reaction by pretending to be asleep, and she would be pissed off. It was better not to open his eyes.

However, it didn't mean that he couldn't hug her.

At the thought of it, Jared suddenly lifted his right hand and put his arm around Amber's waist.

Amber was stunned, and her body subconsciously stiffened.

Anyone who was suddenly taken into one's arm would definitely be shocked.

However, it was only she and Jared here now, so it was obvious who held her around the waist.

The corner of Amber's mouth twitched. She looked down and saw Jared's right arm was firmly around her waist.

He was awake all the time, wasn't he?

Otherwise, how could his arm be firmly around her waist?

If someone were asleep, his arms would hang down relaxed when he held others' waist but wouldn't hang around firmly.

He had almost tricked her!

"Wake up!" Amber nudged Jared. "Stop pretending to be asleep."

Jared didn't move at all, not showing any signs of waking up.

Amber frowned. "Jared, are you sure that you want to go on pretending? If you don't wake up, I'll throw you out."

Jared still didn't move.

Amber observed him for a while. His face was still calm, his eyelashes didn't flutter a bit, and even his breathing was slow and regular. He looked like he had fallen asleep. Amber wasn't sure if he was asleep or not.

If he were really asleep, wouldn't she wake him up?

But if he was pretending to be asleep...

Never mind, just let him be. Amber decided to ignore Jared as long as he wouldn't do something to her.

Besides, it was not the first time he had fallen asleep on her shoulder.

Amber sighed, put on her glasses, and continued watching the movie.

An hour later, the movie ended, and the movie room lit up.

Amber took off her glasses. Her eyes were red from crying, and her eyelashes were still wet.

It was a cliche but still a very touching love story. She cried several times while watching it.

Many other audiences were also crying. When the movie ended, some people were still discussing which part was the most touching moment.

Amber took a deep breath and rubbed her eyes, preparing to wake Jared up.

But the next second, she felt the weight on her shoulders disappear, and Jared sat up straight in his chair.

He opened his eyes and looked at her. "Is the movie over?"

Amber nodded. "Yes. And you woke up just at the right time."

There was a hidden meaning in her words.

Jared knew that she was testing if he had pretended to be asleep. He pretended that he didn't understand the hidden message, his eyes twinkling. "The bright lights awakened me. You have been crying?" Amber didn't bother to argue with him when hearing his response. She patted her cheek and replied, "I cried a little bit. The movie was great."

Great?

Jared disagreed because he thought this childish movie was garbage.

Since Amber enjoyed it, he wouldn't tell her what he really thought about this movie.

"Glad you enjoyed the film. Let's go. Everyone's gone. It's just the two of us now." Jared stood up and gave Amber a hand.

Amber put her hand on the palm of Jared's hand. He gave her hand a little squeeze and led her out of the movie room.

Arriving at the hall outside, Jared glanced at the concession stand and suddenly said, "Wait for me in the seating area. I'm going to buy something." "What do you want to buy?" Amber took a sip of the mango juice. "Snacks again?"

"No, you'll find out soon." Jared shook his head slightly.

He was trying to make her guess.

Alright. She would like to see what he bought later.

Amber walked to the seating area and sat there waiting for Jared.

Jared went off to the concession stand.

When the cashier saw him, her face turned red again. "Sir, what can I get for you this time?"

Jared parted his lips. "I need some ice cubes. Please wrap them in a towel. Thank you."

"Ice cubes?" The cashier was stunned. She hadn't expected that he would buy ice cubes.

She had been working here for so long, but she had never seen anyone buy ice cubes before. Moreover, the ice cubes were asked to be wrapped in a towel.

What was he going to do with the ice cubes?

Seeing that the cashier froze, Jared frowned and urged, "It shouldn't be difficult for you to prepare it, right?"

"Of course." The cashier came back to her mind and hurriedly replied before preparing.

They were selling snacks and drinks on the stand, so it was natural to find ice cubes and towels. After all, there were a lot of customers who needed towels when dropping the juice on them.

Soon, the cashier wrapped some ice cubes in a towel and handed them to Jared. "Sir, here's your ice cubes."

Jared took a look and was quite satisfied. He reached out to take it. "How much?"

"No need, sir." The cashier waved her hand and continued, "You don't have to pay for it because your previous cost was the amount of one week's sales value in our stand. Besides, the ice and towel are worthless things. Please consider it a gift."

"Thank you." Jared accepted it and returned to Amber.
