1/5 At this thought, Logan started humming a song and changed his shoes before heading inside the house.
However, he was not prepared to see Jared sitting on the sofa. The latter was wearing casual clothes as he leaned on the couch and smoked with a relaxed expression.
âOh, god! Jared!â Logan was shocked, and then he started stammering, âWhy... why did you come back so early? Isnât Makenna still in the hospital?
Youâre supposed to accompany her?â
Jared ignored his question and glanced at Logan briefly before asking, âHave you eaten?â
âYeah.â
âCome here then,â Jared said as he put out his cigarette using the ashtray. âWe need to talk.â
After hearing this, Logan was immediately scared.
Fuck! Did Makenna tell Jared how Logan wanted to take the test to be part of the national.

At this thought, Logan hugged his bag and made his way over to where Jared was sitting. timidly before sitting down on the corner of the couch. He tensed his body before saying, âJared, itâs all my fault...â
After all, if he admitted his mistake first, Jared would only punish him by making him kneel. That would be better than he looking for Amber and blaming her instead.
âLook, if you want to play basketball, you can go ahead.â
In the end, he had managed to say a few words when Jared cut him off.
Logan was stunned, and he even thought that he had misheard it, so he stammered, âJared, are... are you letting me play basketball?â
âYeah, thatâs right,â Jared replied plainly, âYou can do anything you like, and I wonât stop you.

That night, when Jared returned home, he had rewatched the two clips that Hayden had sent him. Hence, he began to think about what Amber had said.
Finally, he had thought things through.
When Jared was still studying, he was already involved in the family business. This was because he had a knack for running businesses, and he enjoyed it. On the other hand, Logan. hated studying finances, and he didnât want to be part of the Farrell Group.
Just now, Jared had also called the basketball coach of Loganâs school. He could tell that the coach favored Logan very much as he kept praising Logan. Furthermore, the coach had said that he wanted to train Logan to be the next pride of the national basketball team.
Well, if Logan didnât want to inherit the family business, Jared wouldnât want to force him to do so. After all, he didnât want Logan to hate him in the future.
Furthermore, he didnât want Loganâs talent in basketball to go to waste.
âDo you mean it?â On the other hand, Logan was dumbstruck as he asked with sparkling eyes, âYouâre the best brother in this world, Jared! Donât worry, I wonât embarrass you or let you down!
Iâll make it into the national basketball team and win lots of medals!â
Jared immediately said, âYou chose this path on your own, so make sure you perform well.
Make sure you donât disgrace yourself and our family.â
âI got it!â Logan replied immediately while nodding. Then, he started pouring water for Jared and serving him some fruits. âJared, did you win any good projects today? I think that youâre so gentle and sensible today!â
âHuh? What did you use to think of me then?â Jared forced a smile and questioned, âDid I look like a devil to you back then?â
Logan scratched his head before he answered softly, âNope, I just felt like I was your subordinate previously. After all, I had to be cautious around you, and I was scared every time you said something.â
Jared was silent for a moment before replying,â Well, a lady taught me a lesson today.â
Well, Jared used to think that he knew everything. However, today, when he heard what Amber had said, he realized that he didnât know what Logan wanted all this time.
16:02 Wed, Dec 14 2 D Chapter 52 She Said Youâd Die Faster If You Smoke More ×× After all, in Loganâs eyes, he had always been a supervisor. He had never acted like a brother, so they didnât have a close relationship at all.
âWow! I canât believe anyone would dare to scold you! Who was it? Was it your former teacher?â Logan asked with a stunned expression.
However, Jared didnât answer his question, and he said instead, âWhat did you eat with Amber tonight?â
âWell, we had barbecue! It was delicious, and I finished four plates of meat on my own...â Logan couldnât stop praising the food that he had tonight.
However, while he was rambling, he immediately stopped as he realized something was wrong.
âUm... I suddenly remembered that I have a paper to submit by tomorrow! So, Iâll go up then!â
first After saying that, Logan immediately rushed up the stairs. But when he was at the top, he immediately paused and turned back before saying, âAlso, Amber says that you should smoke lesser! Youâll die faster if you continue smoking at this rate!â
Jared was speechless, and he immediately glared at Logan. Thus, the latter couldnât help but shiver with feat and immediately ran away.
Then, Jared held the half cigarette left in his hands and remembered how Amber had acted that night. When he recalled their fiery kiss, his pants immediately tightened.
Urgh! He didnât feel like smoking anymore, so he put out the cigarette in the ashtray.
On the other hand, Amber picked up her phone to ask Cole about her flight. Then, on the 26th, they took the earliest flight to South Riverside.
Yabuli Resort was in the north end of South Riverside, and it was one of the countryâs largest ski resorts. When it was winter, many people would come here to enjoy their holidays.
Many cars headed to the ski resort outside the airport in this season.
When they were on the way to the resort, Amber looked at the winter scenery outside and couldnât help but ask, âCole, you all are skiing in such freezing temperatures! Arenât you guys cold?â
Weâre all wearing gears, so itâs not cold at all,â Cole answered. He knew that Amber didnât like crowded places, so she had never done these sports before. Then, he frowned as he added, Chapter 52 She Said Youâd Die Faster If You Smoke More âHey! Do you know that I was once a national champion of skiing? I can teach you how to ski! How about that?â
Amber rolled her eyes and replied, âHey! Weâre here to discuss business, not on a vacation!â
âYeah, yeah, of course. You always think that your business is important but not me,â Cole sighed. âLook, I know that Maxmatchâs boss always keeps his schedule a secret, so how did you find out about this news?â
âYou just need to know that heâs here right now. dDonât ask anything else.â Then, Amber turned away and ignored Cole the rest of the way.
Well, she couldnât tell him that the person who had given her this information was a man that she had a one-night stand with anyway.
When they arrived at the resort, Amber immediately checked in at their hotel.
As she wanted to find a chance to talk to Maxmatchâs boss, the latter had just finished skiing with his friends. Then, she greeted him when he entered the hotel.
âHello, Mr. Tam,â Amber walked forward and greeted him, âIâm Amber, the managing director of Goldstone Co.
Amber had gotten information on Myles Tam, the boss of Maxmatch. She found out that his father was an entrepreneur, and he had become rich by building up his own companies.
However, Myles Tam had some conflicts with his father. Thus, he would rather go bankrupt than rely on his fatherâs wealth.
Well, God had given her a chance now!
âI know you. Youâre the new managing director that was recently appointed,â Myles shook Amberâs hand and gave her a smile before saying, âWell, I canât believe I could meet you here.
What a coincidence!â
âNah, this wasnât a coincidence. I came here to see you on purpose,â Amber answered as she knew that he was not a fool, so she didnât try to hide her true intentions. Then, she asked, âDid you just finish skiing? When youâve rested enough, may I have ten minutes of your time? I would like to talk to you about something.â
Myles answered immediately, âAlright, Iâll let you know once Iâm done resting then.â
After saying that, he left with his friends.
On the other hand, Cole muttered, âUrgh! He didnât even ask for your number, so heâll probably never contact you! Look, why donât we go up and force him to talk to us right now? After all, someone needs to acquire his company eventually, so he should just let Goldstone take over it!â
âNo! Do you think everyone is a bastard like you are?â Amber replied furiously, âHe probably has our companyâs number.â
âAre you sure?â Cole laughed sarcastically.

Therefore, Cole immediately said shamelessly, âHah! Look, I told you that he would ignore you, right? You didnât believe my words yesterday, but what about now?â
âUrgh! Stop rubbing salt on my wounds!â Amber was speechless.
âI asked the front desk about his whereabouts just now. They said that he went to the ski with his friends,â Cole put his arm around Amberâs shoulder as he said this. âLetâs go there and look.
for him there then!â
âWhat? The ski resort is so huge, do you think we can find him?â
âWell, we can ski and play around if we canât find him then!â
After that, both of them headed out of the hotel. However, the lift opened behind them and a couple strode out.
