My ex-wife is so beautiful novel (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 693 A Wedding Gift
Georgia fainted when Ben told her about Jared's heart disease.
Amber couldn't read her mind, but she immediately stood up to take an apologetic bow to Georgia for the accident. "I'm sorry to upset you, Grandma."
Amber originally thought Georgia fainted because of the abrupt news.
Jared and she had decided to keep it under wraps because Georgia might not take this fact.
"Grandma, Talon from the Rylands family kidnapped me to threaten Jeremy, but Jared was unluckily involved. He almost sacrificed his life for me. I'm really, really sorry to almost kill your grandson." Amber looked at Georgia with a guilty look.
Georgia gestured her up. "Amber, you don't have to apologize. I know everything, so you didn't drag Jared into this or let him jump off the cliff on purpose. He wanted it, so I don't blame you for this." "Really?" Amber looked up at Georgia.
Georgia smiled while shaking her head, "Of course. As I said, this's what Jared wants. So, you shouldn't take the blame. I'm not one of those cranky old guys. And look at you guys! You've survived." Amber's heart melted, and she sat down again. "Even so, I still feel bad."
"Don't be," Georgia patted the back of her hand to comfort her, "Actually, I'm very gratified that he did that. He loves you, so if he doesn't even save you, then I will despise him. He was in no position to love you, and the Farrells never raise a coward."
"Well... Isn't it a little too much?" Amber felt a bit embarrassed.
Georgia shook her head. "Of course not. The Farrell's men are brave. They can give up everything for what they love and never back down, just like his great grandfather, his grandfather, even his father Hendrik... Even though I don't like Shonna, I have to admit that Hendrik loved her so wholeheartedly that he was willing to give up his career and all to just be a nobody."
Amber nodded.
The Farrell's men all seemed to be knights in shining armor.
Georgia continued, "They're all devoted to love. When your grandfather and I were young, we've been through a lot. He almost lost his life to saving me no matter how hard I persuaded him to give up. So, how would I blame you since we have the same experience?"
"Grandma..." Amber's eyes burned with tears.
It felt really good to be understood.
Georgia smiled. "What? "Are you going to cry?"
"No," Amber lowered her head in embarrassment and wiped her eyes. Then she changed the topic. "Oh right, Grandma, where were we?"
She looked back at Georgia.
Georgia tucked her hair behind her ears and explained, "Well, just off the top of my head, I'm afraid the same thing would happen again. I know you love Jared and want to give him a chance. But he did hurt you. So, if you love him out of gratitude, I'm afraid this won't last long and you guys can't do things together in the future. You won't be happy. But if you love him, I mean truly love him, I'll be reassured." Odd-couple relationships could be fraught with peril.
They would experience the heartbroken thing again.
Georgia didn't want to see that happen.
Amber knew Georgia's concern and smiled. "Don't worry, Grandma. When I say I love Jared, I love him from inside out. I'm actually rational. I can tell what is love and what is gratitude. They can't be mixed up. It's unfair to Jared or me if I'm with him out of anything but love. Otherwise, I'll keep a distance from him or I don't even want to do anything intimate with him. But I'm not. And what's the point of being together like this? Why don't I use other methods to repay the favor?"
"True," Georgia nodded.
Amber added, "So, Grandma, you're just overthinking. I could have gotten back with Jared earlier If I want to repay him. I know what I'm doing, and I know I love him."
Georgia was reassured when she saw how serious Amber looked.
She tapped Amber on the back of her hand. "Then how about giving me a great-grandson in these two years?"
"Grandma..." Amber's cheeks turned red immediately.
That was what Amber had been worrying about.
She had lost a baby.
Georgia didn't notice Amber's sadness, only giggling at Amber's flushed cheeks. "Alright, let's close this case. Did you bring the bracelet?"
"Yeah," Amber returned to her senses and handed the jewelry box to Georgia.
Georgia opened the box and took the bracelet out.
While looking at the bracelet, Georgia's eyes were glossy with nostalgia. "Did Jared tell you about this bracelet?"
"Sort of," Amber shook her head, "It's something like an heirloom."
"Pretty much," Georgia put down the bracelet and recalled, "This bracelet had been passed from our ancestor, who was once a senior official. It then became an heirloom for the successor's wife." "The successor's wife?" Amber gazed at the bracelet, "So that's how it is. I'm right about it."
Georgia smiled, "Well, it's not that hard to guess, right? This's antique."
Amber nodded. "Yeah."
"When I married your grandfather, your great-grandmother gave this to me. Then I gave it to Jared's mother. But you know, she didn't love his father and never think of herself as a part of the Farrells. So, I took it back, and now, I'm going to give it to you."
Georgia let out a sigh. "I should have given you this six years ago. Jared stopped me. You know, he was still mentally ill at that time, so..."☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
