Chapter 80
Honey, I Don't Dare Again (Amber and Jared) novel
Chapter 80 You Two Look Alike As Hayden buckled his seat belt, he said with a smile, âNothing, I just told her a horror story.â
âDo I look that stupid?â Amber looked at him, feeling speechless.
Hayden started the car with an aggrieved look. âWhat I said is the truth. Thereâs nothing I could do if you donât believe me.â
âHar, har.â Amber rolled her eyes and retrieved her look.
Hayden suddenly turned around and took a quick glance at her. âMiss Reed, I suddenly realized that you look a little like Mrs. Gardner.â
âHuh?â Amber was a little confused. âI look like her?â
âYeah.â
âNah!â Amber shook her head. âDonât be ridiculous.â
âIâm not, Iâm serious. Your face shape and eyes really look like hers.â Hayden nodded with at straight face.
He then added, âYou two almost look like twins. No one would doubt if you claim youâre mother and daughter.â
Amber was now sure that Hayden was not kidding and she was stunned.
1/5 But soon, she returned to calmness and waved her hand. âSo what? Thereâs nothing strange to have two people looking alike in this world.â
âThatâs true,â Hayden answered.
Neither of them took this finding to heart and they soon forgot about it.
Amber lowered the car window and let the cold wind blew on her face. âBy the way, I have a question for you.â
âWhat is it?â Hayden listened to the radio music, and he swung gently with the rhythm.
Amber rolled her eyes at the irresponsible driver and asked, âWhich friend of yours has the WhatsApp name âZâ?â
âSorry?â The music was too loud and Hayden couldnât hear her clearly for a moment.
Amber pinched the part between her eyebrows with a headache and shouted, âWho is Z?â
After a sharp screech, the car jerked to a halt. Both of them flew forward and were pulled back to their seats by the seat belt before they hit the windscreen.
Amber was so frightened that her face turned cadaverous. She only calmed down after a while. She turned around angrily and slapped Hayden on the arm. âWhat are you doing?â
Hayden knew he had almost caused an accident. He released the steering wheel, wiped his face and coughed with embarrassment. âSorry, my mistake.â
If she hadnât asked about Z, he wouldnât be so shocked that he suddenly stepped on the brake.
Amber massaged her temples. âOK, youâd better tell Stella your real identity yourself. I canât afford a driver like you.â
âOh no, you canât dismiss me like that just because of one driving mistake I made.â Hayden looked at her with a smile.
Amber sneered, âJust drive!â
Hayden shrugged and drove again, but he was secretly looking at her from sideways. âYou were asking me who Z is, right?â
âYes.â Amber nodded.
Haydenâs eyes rolled. âWhy do you want to ask about him?â
Amber looked down to conceal her expression. She said blandly, âNothing. Iâve made friends with him by coincidence, and heâs helped me twice, so I want to know his situation. He said heâs your friend, so thatâs why I asked you.â
âIs that so?â Hayden didnât dare to look at her for fear that she would see the nervousness in his eyes. âHe is indeed my friend, but weâre not so close, and I donât even know his name. We only drank together for a few times. He has gone abroad now.â
âIs that so?â Amber nodded.
Since he had gone abroad, that meant she couldnât see him anymore.
For a moment, Amber was relieved.
In fact, she was kinda worried about encountering him one day as the situation would be awkward. After all, she was quite close to Hayden.
Now that he was abroad, she wonât have to worry.
Yet not knowing why, she felt an inexplicable sense of loss in heart.
Amber looked at the scenery outside the window and didnât speak.
Hayden slightly heaved a sigh of relief, but he was planning to look for Jared and take advantage of him later.
After all, it took him a lot of effort to hide Jaredâs identity.
They reached Kelsington Bay half an hour later.
Amber got out of the car and limped into the building with two crutches.
As soon as she got out of the elevator, the boy squatting in front of her house had his eyes gleamed and he immediately stood up. âYouâre finally back. Iâve been waiting you for ages... Whatâs wrong with your leg?â
The boy looked at her leg in plaster and the two crutches under her arms in surprise.
Amber didnât answer Loganâs question, but frowned at him. âWhy are you here?â
Logan lowered his head and replied unhappily, âI had a fight with my mother again. She asked me to quit basketball. I didnât want to, so I ran out.â
Amber sneered. âWhat place do you think this is? You just come here every from home?â
âI have nowhere to go,â Logan said with embarrassment.
In fact, he didnât know why he came to her too.
He only knew that he would feel very calm when he came here.
time you run away âYour family has a large business. You have real estate everywhere, and youâre scared that you have nowhere to go?â Amber took out the key and said, âGet out of the way, I need to open the door.â
Logan moved aside to let her unlock the door.
Amber stepped forward to open the door, and he stood behind her, as if ready to follow her in at any time.
Amber stopped unlocking the door and looked at him. âYouâre actually planning to get in?â
âI told you I have no place to go. Iâm staying here with you tonight.â Logan looked down at her stubbornly.
Although he was only a teenager, he was over 6 feet tall because of playing basketball.
Amber had to look up to see his face.
âItâs okay if you want to stay here with me, but why should I let you stay here for free? I want twenty thousand dollars per night.â Amber pretended as if she was counting money.
Logan exploded. âTwenty thousand dollars? Why donât you go rob a bank?â
âWhy, if you canât afford it, donât stay here then.â Amber tossed her hand to show she was helpless about it.
Loganâs face flushed. âWho said I couldnât afford it? I just didnât have the money with me now. Canât I pay you next time?â
âNo. If you canât give me the money, leave then. I donât offer credit, and why should I keep an enemyâs son?â With that, Amber opened the door and wanted to go in.
Loganâs face turned pale for a moment when she mentioned âan enemyâs sonâ, but he soon recovered and wanted to follow in.
Amber immediately pulled the door back, leaving a gap. âIâve said it. Leave if you have no money.â
âIâm not leaving!â Logan looked at her angrily through the gap. âI know itâs my motherâs fault. I could give you more money as a compensation next time.â
Amber smiled and rejected. âNo!â
Could money compensate for six years of her suffering?
âYou kept on rejecting me, what do you want then?â Logan stamped his feet.
Amber looked at him and replied, âItâs very simple. I want you to leave.â
âIâm not leaving!â Logan insisted.
âIf you donât want to leave, stay outside then. Donât expect me to be soft hearted and let you in.â
With that, she closed the door directly.

For a moment, Logan couldnât help feeling a little aggrieved. He then sat down on the ground angrily. As he secretly blamed Amber for being heartless, he felt a little regret as well, and even started to reflect on himself.
He reflected on his actions towards her in the past six years, and the more he reflected, the worse he felt.
Amber didnât leave after entering the house. She stood behind the door and peeked through the peephole.
Seeing that Logan was really staying, she had a headache.
Did God send him to torture her on purpose?
Amber took out her cell phone and made a phone call to Jared.
Seeing the caller ID, an uncanny look flashed across Jaredâs face and he answered the call. âHello?â
