Chapter 29: The Height of Shamelessness

As Jared appeared, all eyes turned to him, especially those of Amber's close friends, who immediately beamed with joy.

They clasped their hands over their chests, eyes gleaming, "So handsome! My heart is beating so fast."

"What to do, what to do, my face is so red, his eyes seem to bewitch people, I feel like I've deeply fallen for him."

"I can't handle it, I'm about to get a nosebleed, how can someone be this good-looking, I really want to marry him."

In the past, Amber would have scoffed at such talk, calling them fools.

What use was good looks?

Nothing but a waste of space.

But now, all she could think about was how to keep up the lie.

She thought Jared had mistaken her for someone else, surely unaware that Tina was the one who had saved Sophia, and she let the mistake slide.

Little did she expect to be publicly exposed by Sophia under such circumstances.

As Amber pondered how to smooth over the lie, Nathan pushed Jared up to her.

Jared's stern face was expressionless, his deep and narrow eyes coldly fixed on her, radiating a bone-chilling frostiness.

Beside them, Hayden wore a scornful smile, "Miss Amber, aren't you going to explain? Accepting our gratitude, yet you're not the one who saved Sophia, tsk tsk, I never knew our Miss Ensford could be so... shameless!"

Amber flushed with embarrassment, biting her lip with a pitiful look, "Mr. Farrell, Mr. Cohen, could there be some misunderstanding?"

"Oh?" Hayden raised an eyebrow, disdainfully saying, "Do tell, where did we misunderstand?"

"I did save a little girl around five who was scalded. When Mr. Farrell came to thank me at home, I thought he was referring to that girl, not realizing this was all a misunderstanding," Amber explained, adopting a woefully aggrieved demeanor, "Mr. Farrell, you mistook the person."

Hayden's eyes widened, completely astounded by Amber's shameless performance!
