Chapter 51 Are You Pleasing Her because You’re Attracted to Her?
The group of parents was speechless right now.
“I won! I’m the victor!” Logan ran to Amber and exclaimed while panting. However, everyone could tell that he was excited and thrilled. “I made such a fantastic dunk just now! Did you see it? Did you record it down for me?”
“Nah, I didn’t,” said Amber in reply. She ran her fingers through her hair and wore an emotionless look on her face. In fact, she looked completely different from the girl who had clapped excitedly for Logan just now.
“What…? You’re lying! I saw you…”
“If you lost the game just now, you would only be embarrassing your brother and yourself. So, why should I pay that much attention to the game? Alright, stop getting in my way. I’ll go ahead and sign the contract for you now!” Amber said as she pushed Logan away and walked in the direction where the coach was standing.
However, when she talked to the coach, she immediately spoke in a more polite tone, “I’m sorry for wasting your time.”
Logan was speechless when he saw this.
Meanwhile, Hayden had recorded Logan’s shocked expression. Then, he came over to where Logan was standing and patted the latter’s shoulder before saying, “Hey! Previously when Amber was in the Farrell’s home, you bullied her every day! Now, how does it feel like to have a taste of your own medicine?”
“Bah! I’m a gentleman, so I won’t get back on her for this!” Logan snorted in reply to what Hayden had said.
“Why are you still standing there?!” shouted Amber all of a sudden, “Do you not want to play basketball anymore? Come here and sign this contract!”
Logan immediately ran over and signed this contract as his future depended on this.
After that, the coach told all the parents and players that the school would send cars to pick up their children and send them to the training center. Then, he left.
Soon, the parents left with their children as well.
Meanwhile, Logan followed Amber out of the basketball court and flipped the contract in his hands non-stop. Right now, he couldn’t believe that this was happening!
This afternoon, Amber hadn’t picked up his calls, so he had called Makenna in hopes that the latter would help him.
However, Makenna claimed that she could not help him as she was recuperating in the hospital. Then, she also added, “Look, Logan, you should listen to your brother and try not to make him upset.”
He was in despair at that time after hearing what she had said. However, Amber arrived in the end.
Not only did Amber argue with those parents on his behalf, but she had also taken his side. She didn’t ask him to be obedient to Jared, instead, she said, “Do your best.”
Logan looked at Amber, who was walking in front of him.
The sky was dark now, and the sun had long set. However, Amber was like an angel that was glowing in his eyes. She had a striking aura around her, so he was immediately attracted.
Right now, she was like Logan’s savior!
Then, he stuffed the contract into his bag and walked faster to catch up with Amber before saying, “Hey, my dear sister-in-law! You look gorgeous today, and your clothes suit you well! Heck, you even look more amazing than those top models on screen!”
Speechless, Amber turned to look at Logan, who was staring at her with puppy eyes. She felt goosebumps all over her body.
Amber frowned, “I’m not your sister-in-law anymore, so don’t call me that.”
“Alright, I got it, Amber.” Logan immediately changed his tone after hearing what she had said.
After all, Amber had helped him so much today, so he would call her whatever she wanted.Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
Once they had reached their car, Logan immediately stepped forward and opened the door to the backseat for Amber before saying, “Here, Amber, be careful when you get on the car. We wouldn’t want you to hit your head, right?”
Amber wasn’t used to his sudden solicitous action, so she got in the car immediately.
“What are you doing?” At this time, Hayden had caught up with them too, so he couldn’t help but add, “Isn’t she your sister-in-law? Why are you treating her so well? Are you attracted to her?”
“What? That’s nuts, Hayden! I’m only sixteen!”
“Well, that’s a pretty good age to be,” Hayden replied as he flicked the cigarette butt away, “You’re young and energetic. Also, you have passion, so you’re so much better than your brothers. Who knows? She might like you more instead.”
Logan blushed immediately when he heard Hayden teasing him, but he became speechless. Instead, he could only walk to the front seat grumpily.
While they were talking, Amber had wound down the car window so that she could get some fresh air. Therefore, she had overheard their entire conversation, and she wanted to applaud for Hayden’s unabashed words. After all, she couldn’t believe that Jared, who was so cold and aloof, had an outgoing friend like Hayden. Furthermore, both of them got along nicely too.
This was unbelievable!
At this thought, Amber couldn’t help but massage her temples. Then, she took out her phone to see whether there were pending issues that she needed to solve. Thus, she immediately noticed a few unread WhatsApp messages on the screen.
One of them was a text from Z.
Right now, Amber was still annoyed because this person did not leave any remark. However, when she clicked to read the message, she found that this person had transferred 66666 dollars to her bank account, so she didn’t know what to do.
Previously, after waiting for this man to reply to her messages, she had forgotten to block him due to busyness.
As Amber wanted to block this contact now, she saw the message that this stranger had sent around thirty minutes ago: The boss of Maxmatch is ice-skating in Yabuli Resort.
Suddenly, a message popped up. It read: Z would like to share a location with you.
What? How did this mysterious man know where Maxmatch’s boss was?
At this thought, Amber immediately sent a text to the stranger asking: Who are you? Why do you know I’m looking for the whereabouts of Maxmatch’s boss? Are you stalking me?
On the other hand, Jared looked at his messages in the office and frowned.
Did Amber not recognize him that night?
He remembered that Amber was drunk that night, and that was so terrible till she passed out. Hence, she had forgotten about many things that had happened when she woke up the following day.
Jared wanted to reply to Amber by texting his real name. However, he suddenly remembered that he had divorced her. If she knew what had happened that night, things would definitely become awkward between them, and she would probably continue to reject him.
In the end, Jared decided to delete his message and sent a new one instead.
Z: Hello, I’m Hayden’s friend, and I know you as well. Hayden told me that he does business with you, so he wanted to help you get Maxmatch.
Then, he added: I have a friend who went to Yabuli Resort for a holiday and met the boss of Maxmatch, so he talked about it in our group chat. You gave me quite a sum last time, so I decided to tell you this information for free.
When Amber read this reply, she immediately let down her guard.
Ah! So Z was Hayden’s friend!
After that, she replied: Thank you!
Then, she raised her head and looked at Hayden questioningly, who was driving the car,.
Why would Hayden’s friend suddenly appear that night? Furthermore, she had also fallen into the arms, and they had… This was too much of a coincidence!
Meanwhile, Hayden had felt her gaze on him, so he stopped talking to Logan. Instead, he glanced at Amber briefly and asked, “Woah, Ms. Reed, you have a weird expression on your face. Are you attracted to me because of what I said?”
“Huh? What did you say?” Logan immediately asked when he heard this. “What did you tell her? Why would she suddenly be attracted to you?”
“Hmm? Do you want me to tell you?” Hayden immediately teased in reply and said slowly, “Well, I told Ms. Reed that I’m more handsome than your brother…”
“Hayden! You’re my driver now!” Amber couldn’t take his teasing anymore, so she snapped, “If you don’t drive properly, get lost now! I can drive myself!”
Hayden tsked when he heard this and didn’t finish his previous sentence. Instead, he said, “Urgh! Birds of a feather flock together. Ms. Reed was married to your brother for six years, so she has the same temper as his! What do you think?
Hearing this, Logan thought about it briefly and nodded, “Well, you’re right.”
On the other hand, Amber was speechless, and all she wanted to do right now was get off the car and shut Logan up!
