Hypnotizing Love -
Chapter 204 It's For Amber
Look, this was the difference.
When Jared heard that it was from Amber, he was no longer angry.
"From Amber?" Jared clenched the pen in his hand, his tone a little joyful.
Seeing this, Ben quickly handed over the box in his hand and pretended to ask, "Mr. Farrell, do you want these? If you don't want them, I will send them to the finance department."
He didn't believe that Jared would agree.
"Put it aside." Jared raised his chin and said lightly.
Bingo. Ben smiled and nodded. "Yes."
He had guessed correctly that Mr. Farrell would keep them.
Moreover, Mr. Farrell was so happy but still pretended to be calm. There was no need at all.
After putting down the tonics, Ben was ready to go out.
At this time, the cell phone in his pocket rang.
Ben took it out and saw that it was a call from the receptionist. "Mr. Farrell, excuse me."
Jared agreed, and he turned to stare at the box again, his gaze so gentle.
Ben sighed. He thought, "If I wasn't here, Mr. Farrell would have gone to check the box himself."
Two minutes later, Ben put down his phone. "Mr. Farrell, Miss Gardner is here."
Jared frowned. "What is she doing here?"
"I don't know, but it should be for your injury." Ben's eyes fell on his wheelchair.
Jared rubbed his brows and said, "Let her come up."
"Yes, sir." Ben put the phone back to his ear and said to the one over the phone.
Not long after, Makenna came up.
"Jared, I heard that your leg were injured. What's going on?" She asked as soon as she came in.
Jared took a sip of coffee. "It was just an accident."
"Really?" Makenna looked at his leg worriedly. "What happened?"
Jared put down the coffee and replied, "It's a sprain. Nothing was serious. Don't worry."
"How can I not be worried? I was freaked out when I heard that you were injured. No, I have to see how you are." As she spoke, Makenna squatted down and was about to lift the bottom of Jared's trouser to examine his injuries.
Jared frowned and pushed her away.
Unexpectedly, Makenna was pushed to the ground, staring at him in a daze.
He actually pushed her!
"Jared..." Makenna bit her lip, looking aggrieved.
Jared also realized that he had gone too far just now. He felt a little guilty and reached out to pull her up. "Sorry, Makenna, I didn't do it on purpose. I just don't like anyone to touch me all of a sudden." Hearing this, Ben, who had been silent, rolled his eyes secretly.
Didn't Miss Reed lift up his trouser leg to see his leg last night? He didn't say that at that time, nor did he push Miss Reed away.
He just didn't like to be touched by Miss Gardner.
Of course, Ben didn't dare say these words out loud.
Therefore, he decided to keep silent and just watched.
"It doesn't matter." Makenna twitched the corner of her mouth and forced a smile. "I was too impulsive. I wanted to check your injuries, but I neglected your feelings. Jared, please don't blame me." Jared replied, "Don't worry. I'm not blaming you. It's just a minor injury. It'll be fine in a few days. You don't have to be worried."
As he spoke, he gave Ben a look.
Ben knew that he couldn't keep silent anymore, so he coughed softly and stood up. "Yes, Miss Gardner. The doctor also said that Mr. Farrell's injury is not serious."
"Ok, I'm relieved." Makenna patted her chest.
"Mr. Farrell, then I'll go out first." Ben said to Jared.
"Go ahead."
"Take your time." After that, Ben turned and left.
Only Makenna and Jared were left in the office.
Makenna turned her head and suddenly saw a box on the table. The box was printed with the logo of Chopard on it.
"What's this?" She picked up the box with interest.
Before Jared could stop her, she had already opened the box.
"Wow, it's the new couple watches of Chopard!" Makenna looked at watches and exclaimed, "Jared, when did you buy it? I wanted to buy this before and wear it with you, but I didn't get to buy it. But you've bought them secretly."
As she spoke, she put down the box, took out the lady's watch, and was about to put it on her wrist.
Jared took it from her hand directly and said, "This is not for you."
The smile on Makenna's face froze. When seeing him put the lady's watch into the box, she looked jealous.
"It's not for me. Who is it for?" She clenched her fists and suppressed the anger in her heart, trying to make her voice sound as calm as possible.
"It is for Amber!"
Jared was shocked when he answered to himself in his heart immediately.
But soon, he thought that they got this watch because of the danger he and Amber had went through together, so Amber should take one of them. Nothing strange about his thought.
Thinking of this, Jared calmed down. He replied, "I bought it for a friend. If you want it, I'll buy you a different one."
"I see." Seeing him explaining seriously, Makenna was not angry anymore and smiled again.
She thought that he bought it for Amber.
"But Jared, why didn't you buy a pair for us since you had bought one for your friend?" Makenna hugged Jared's arm and asked with a pouted face. Jared took out his hand without making it too obvious and said, "I didn't think of that."
"Well, I forgive you." Makenna said with a smile.
Jared closed the watch box and gently put it into the drawer.
Makenna saw it, but she didn't think much about it. She thought it was natural for Jared to treat something gently as it was a present for his friend.
When Amber heard Sheila say that the health supplements had been sent over, she didn't say anything beside an "okay".
Anyway, it meant that she had returned Jared's favor last night. She no longer owed him anything.
As for the other times when he had saved her, it was all because Makenna who wanted to hurt her. He should be responsible as Makenna's fiancé, right? Therefore, she did not owe him anything for that.
"Honey." Cole's voice came from the door of the office.
Amber looked up and smiled. "Why are you here?"
"I am going to accompany you for surgery. Have you forgotten?" Cole put his hand down from the door and walked in.
Amber leaned back in the chair. "Of course I didn't, but it's not noon yet. You came so early."
"I have nothing to do, so I came earlier." Cole pulled out a chair and sat down. He looked at her desk and asked, "Have you finished yet?"
"I'm busy with the work of the day after tomorrow." Amber answered as she flipped through the papers.
Cole was about to ask if she need some help when he suddenly saw an invitation card. He picked it up. "Honey, you have also received an invitation from the auction."
"Yes, didn't I tell you?" Amber looked up at him.
Cole forced a smile. "Of course not. If you told me, would I still ask?"
Amber smiled. "It seems that I forgot. By the way, what are you going to donate?"
"A modern painting which is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars. What about you?" Cole put down the invitation and asked.s

Amber stretched herself. "I'm planning to donate jewlery, but my stepmother took them all away six years ago and I haven't bought any when I was in the Farrell family. Since I don't have any spare one, I'm going to buy another necklace to donate."
