Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber)
Chapter 765 I Promise You

"You have my word!" Jared nodded.

Amber smiled in a better mood. "That's more like it. What about you?"

Jared asked in a low voice, "Me? What?"

"Your back..." Amber awkwardly pursed her lips. "I mean, the scratches on your back..."

Jared finally understood. Before she could finish, he happily replied, "It's better now."

"That's good." Amber breathed a sigh of relief and added, "Don't you want to know about your current condition? You haven't asked since you woke up."

"That's right." Jared nodded, pretending to be serious about it.

Amber patted him on the chest. "What are you doing? I just want you to ask me. Don't you care if your body is well enough after a car accident?"

He didn't ask anything, as if he wasn't the one who had a car crash.

Jared grabbed Amber's hand on his chest and chuckled. "Don't be angry. I didn't ask because I guessed I was fine, according to your reaction. You were just surprised for a few seconds but didn't cry when I woke up. "So, I guessed I was fine. Am I right?"

He pulled her hand out of the quilt and kissed it.

Amber snorted. "Alright, your guess was correct. You're fine. Ben said that you fainted because you were hit in the back of your head. And you'll be discharged tomorrow."

"I see." Jared raised his chin to show he understood, but another dark gleam flashed through his eyes.

It should have been an excuse that Ben had deliberately made up to lie to Amber.

After all, he knew how painful his heart was before he fainted.

The pain in the back of his head wouldn't result in a coma.

Therefore, he must have fainted because of his heart.

He had told Ben to hide Amber from his heart problem, so Ben could only make up another reason.

His head had just happened to be hit, which naturally became the best excuse for his coma.

Jared could see that Amber didn't suspect it from her expression.

He was relieved.

As he wondered, Jared suddenly felt something on his face.

He looked down and saw Amber sitting up to squeeze his face tightly with both hands and looking at him seriously. "Jared, do you know how scared I was when I heard Ben say that you had a car accident tonight? I was scared to death and almost passed out! I have to pinch my thigh to wake me up. Because I couldn't let myself faint, and I needed to consciously know the severity of the car crash as soon as possible. I..."

"What?" Before she could finish, Jared's face hardened, and he sat up. "You pinched your thigh?"

Amber blinked. "I was trying to keep awake and calm."

"Who told you to treat yourself like that?" asked Jared sternly, his expression grave.

Amber widened her eyes. "I did it for you. How could you yell at me?"

She suddenly felt wronged.

Jared also realized that his tone was a little bad. Then he uttered in a softer voice, "I'm sorry. I'm not yelling at you. I just don't want you to hurt yourself. Isn't it painful?" Amber snorted. "What do you think? But I could only do so to keep awake. I wouldn't hurt myself if it weren't for you. It's all your fault, but you're blaming me instead." Jared pursed his lips and had nothing to say.

He was indeed the one who had done wrong.

Jared rubbed his forehead and looked at Amber with guilt. "I'm sorry that I scared you. Is your thigh still hurting? Let me have a look."

As he spoke, he bent down to check.

Amber tightened her thighs. "No need. It's fine now. Besides, I'm wearing pants. It's not convenient to check. You can check it until we get back tomorrow."

Jared had been upset when Amber had rejected his kindness.

But the latter part of Amber's words made him feel better at once.

Amber looked at Jared's smile and knew what he was thinking. She shook her head in amusement.

But the next second, her little face darkened.

Jared saw her changed expression and raised his eyebrows slightly. He could vaguely guess what she was going to say was pretty serious.

As expected, Amber crossed her arms and stared at him coldly. "Jared, I hear from Ben that he swerved off the road because a woman ran a red light that he had no time to brake. And it was your order. Right?"

Jared replied, "Yes, otherwise the two cars would have collided."

Jared's face was filled with disgust at the mention of the woman who had run the red light.

A person who didn't care about his own life or the lives of others was truly disgusting.

Amber comforted as she saw the look of disgust in Jared's eyes.

She was the happiest if Jared disliked that woman.

Even though she knew that Jared didn't know that woman and could impossibly have anything to do with her.

She still felt so jealous when she thought of the scene where that woman was looking after Jared.

So now that she saw Jared's disgusted expression, she naturally felt much happier.

"I know you didn't want to hit pedestrians. But have you ever thought that you might have an accident?" Amber moved closer to Jared, which surprised Jared.

And he quickly reached out to hug her.

Amber looked up at him, amused.

He was really an opportunity catcher.

"I had calculated the distance and speed. It wouldn't cause a serious car accident if we rushed to the roadside. Hence, I let Ben do so," Jared explained, resting his chin on the top of Amber's head. Amber pursed her lips. "Alright. But that's because it happened to be on the side of the road. What if the driveway wasn't near the side of the road but near the opposite lane? What would you plan to do? Would you still let Ben drive into it? If the car collided with another car at such a high speed in the opposite direction, you two probably would die. Jared, I'd rather you drive into that woman's car than die in that case. Do you understand?"

Her eyes were red as she looked at him.

She wasn't so ruthless as to support him in hitting people.

But compared to a stranger, she wanted Jared to be OK.

Jared's pupils constricted slightly, and there was a noticeable surprise in his eyes.

He knew how kind Amber was.

But now, she was willing to abandon kindness for his safety.

It was enough to prove how much she valued him.

At this thought, Jared hugged Amber tightly as if he wanted to embed her into his body. He replied with excitement, his voice husky, "I know. I promise you I won't do anything dangerous and make you worried in the future."

"Really?" Amber turned to look at the man's profile.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
