Chapter 160 Hit

Her words worked wonders as Jennifer felt slightly better.

Faye tucked Carter in and led Jennifer to the sofa. “Jennifer, did you throw a tantrum just now?” she pretended to ask in a friendly manner.

Jennifer lowered her gaze. “Mrs. Scott, you’re really observant.”

Faye took her hand and patted it gently. “Was it because of Amelia?”

Jennifer nodded honestly.

“Silly girl!” Faye chuckled. “To me, you are the perfect match for Carter. I really like you and asked for your parents’ approval before introducing you to Carter. It was all my fault. I didn’t inform Carter before telling your family to return from abroad. Otherwise, things wouldn’t end up being this awkward.”

Jennifer remained silent.

Patting her hand again, Faye asked, “Jennifer, you must’ve blamed me for this, right?”

Still, Jennifer said nothing.

Faye wasn’t mad at all. Instead, she continued persuading Jennifer, “I won’t be mad even if you do blame me. I was the cause of your frustration. I hope you won’t give up on Carter. He’s just simmering in resentment for failing to get Amelia back. Soon, he’ll fall in love with you after realizing how great you are.”

Something flickered in Jennifer’s gaze.

Faye added, “Carter’s my son, so I know him well. He might seem pleasant, but in reality, he keeps everyone at arm’s length. As long as you’re sincere, he’ll fall for you one day.”

Looking up, Jennifer met her gaze. “Mrs. Scott, I’ve never thought of giving up on Carter. He’s the only one I love. As long as he’s unmarried, I’ll make sure he marries me.”

Faye nodded in approval. “That’s the Jennifer I know.”

After a pause, she added, “Jennifer, you’ve been here for a long time. I believe your parents are worried about you. You should go home for the time being. I’ll take over now.”

Jennifer gazed at Carter, seemingly troubled. In the end, she nodded. “All right then. I’ll head back for now. We’ve just argued, so I don’t think he wants to see me now. I might come again after two days.”

Faye let out a wry laugh.
