Chapter 197 Push-ups
Anyway, it was not the first time that she and Jared had kissed each other like this.
There was another time in the kitchen of Mr. Morris’ villa.
Therefore, there was no need for her to care so much. She just treated it as if she had been bitten by a dog.
Thinking of this, Amber took a deep breath and turned to look at the “dog” beside her.
The man was already waiting for her on the poker.
She shook hands and told herself in her heart several times that she should not make any mistakes. Then she reached out her head and placed her lips on the card.
Jared felt the temperature from the other side of the card, and his eyes sight darkened.
But before he could feel it for two more seconds, the temperature disappeared.
Jared’s eyelids drooped as a sense of loss rose in his heart.
Soon, it was time.
The manager announced the first three families, number one, number three, and number five.
They were No. 5.
Jayden clapped happily. “Mom, we have entered the next round.”
“Yes.” Amber nodded, her face full of disbelief.
She thought that they had made a mistake once and wasted some time. They would definitely be eliminated
She didn’t expect to win.
Looking at Amber’s stunned look, Jared thought it was quite cute, and a smile flashed across his eyes. “In addition to No. 1 and No. 3, the No. 2 and No. 4 families also made a mistake. They made more mistakes than us, so we are in third place.”
“How did you know?” Amber looked at him in confusion.This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
Jared looked down at her and said, “During the game, I paid attention to the progress of other families, so I knew.”
It was like that.
Amber couldn’t help giving him a thumbs-up. “Respect.”
In such a short period of game time, he was still able to divert his attention to other opponents. Just this point alone, she was no match to him.
No wonder he could turn the Farrell Group into the top one of Olkmore.
“Nothing, this is my habit.” Jared’s lips curled into a smile when he heard Amber’s compliment.
Amber looked at his smile and thought that he was complacent. She pursed her lips and turned her head to the other side.
Jared raised his eyebrows.
What’s wrong with her?
What did he say wrong?
Jared frowned and thought for a while, but he still couldn’t figure out how he had offended Amber.
Just as he was about to ask clearly, the manager’s voice rang again. “Congratulations to the first three families for entering the second round of the competition. The second round is doing push-ups. Please come here.”
“Mom, let’s go.” Jayden threw away the poker in his hand, jumped off the sofa, and ran to the open space with Amber
As for Jared
He didn’t care about this bad uncle at all.
Anyway, the bad uncle would go by himself.
Amber didn’t call Jared. She focused all her heart on Jayden and asked it to run slowly.
Jared’s handsome was angry as he watched the two of them leave without calling him.
This little guy must have done it on purpose.
She was still holding a grudge against him for rubbing her face.
Jared snorted and stood up with his hands in his pockets, ready to go over.
Suddenly, he saw something and stopped.
At the position where Jayden had just sat, there was a poker card.
It was the one they had played just now.
Jared peeked at it and took his hand out of his trouser pocket, and reached out to pick up the card.
On the card, the lipstick mark was still on it, which were very clear.
Jared didn’t know what he was thinking. He put the card into his suit pocket.
As soon as he put it in, he heard Jayden shouting, “Dad, come here quickly. The game has begun.”
Jared turned around and snorted with satisfaction.
At the critical moment, the lad had to call him dad and beg him to go over.
“Here I am.” Jared’s mood improved again. He walked over slowly with his long legs.
This round was to do push-ups. But, when the father was doing twenty push-ups, the mother should be sitting on his back, adding weight to it.
The baby, on the other hand, was counting for her father.
However, before the second round began, the audience and guests in the restaurant had already guessed the final result.
Because the mother of the No. 3 family was big, and the father was very thin, it was impossible for him to carry his wife to do 20 push-ups.
So the result was predictable.
“Why is this game so tricky?” Amber said with a frown.
She thought that push-ups were done by the three of them together.
She didn’t expect this.
In the first round, she and Jared accidentally kissed each other. But in this round, she had to sit on his back.
There’s no way Jared would agree to this.
While he was thinking, Jared suddenly said, “It’s a bit tricky, but it’s still acceptable. All right, come on.”
After that, he bent down and made a push-ups posture.
Amber thought that she had heard wrong and looked at him incredulously. “What did you say? Let me come up?”
“Yes.” Jared replied.
Amber opened her mouth.
She had guessed it wrong.
He actually agreed!
Seeing Amber standing there in a daze, Jared said again, “Hurry up, they’re ready. You’re the only one left.”
Amber looked around and saw that the moms were already sitting on their husbands’ backs. Without hesitation, she took a step forward and sat on Jared’s back.
This was the first time she had treated such a proud man as a horse.
Feeling… so cool!
A hint of excitement flashed across her eyes, but she pretended that nothing had happened. She looked at the man under her and asked, “Is it heavy? If you think…”
“Not heavy.” Before she could finish her words, Jared answered first.
He added, “It’s light.”
He wasn’t just saying it casually.
But she was really very light, even lighter than Makenna.
But she was half a head taller than Makenna. It could be seen that her weight was obviously not enough. The key was that she was pregnant.
“You should eat more and put on your weight.” Jared turned his head to look at Amber with a serious tone.
Amber could tell that it was a little cold. “This is my business. You don’t need to bother with that. You’d better care about Miss Gardner. Now just focus on the game.”
It was ridiculous. He had never cared about her before.
Now that he did, she would only think that it was not real.
Seeing that Amber was unwilling to accept it, Jared frowned, but he didn’t say anything and turned his head back.
The competition officially began.
Jared let Amber sit steadily and began to do push-ups.
Jayden was counting beside them.
Although Jared was busy with his business, he would spare some time to swim and exercise every week. Needless to say, his physical quality was much better than his father’s.
The fathers of the No. 1 and No. 3 families were typical men who didn’t exercise all year round, especially the No. 1 father. He was like who had been pregnant for months.
Although No. 3’s father was better, he had a wife weighing about 200 pounds on his back.
Amber looked at his face, which had turned red from exhaustion, and his trembling arms. She was afraid that his arms would break if they could not hold on any longer.
Therefore, compared with these two fathers, Jared appeared to be effortless. His movements were both up to standard and beautiful, which was pleasing to the eye.
Many people in the restaurant had their eyes fixed on him.
Jared didn’t care about these gazes. His attention had always been on Amber.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the woman on his back staring at the fathers of the other two families. His handsome face suddenly fell. “Focus.”
“Uh?” Amber was confused
She was not the one doing push-ups. Why did she need to focus?
