The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 41 Sudden Confession

The Porsche 911 sped along the road.

In the car, Jack felt grateful so he said, “Thank you for what you did.”

He really didn't foresee Amber's action.

As far as he knew, that's the first time Amber had lost her control.

But Jack knew that Amber did it to help him.

“Their family went over the line.” Amber was clearly still angry, “I feel sorry because you're treated

unjustly.”

Jack smiled, “But you look pretty when you're angry.”

He was already cold towards the Parry family and Katherine since she took away his last 200 thousand

to save his mother.

She just ignored his mother's life.

Even if he loved her more than that, it was enough for him to see through the Parry family and

Katherine.

He didn't think there was anything wrong with Amber's action.

Furthermore, if Amber didn't burst out first... His reaction would definitely be bigger than hers.

Looking at the fast cars going backwards from the window, Jack said, “You're driving too fast.”

“I'm angry.” Amber muttered.

She stared intently to the front, but her eyes were swaying like she was thinking of something else.

They became silent in the car.

“Jack...”

After quite some time, Amber suddenly said something.

Jack turned his head and looked at Amber, “What's wrong?”

Amber spoke like she mustered her courage for it, “I'm serious about what I said just now.”

Jack was stunned.

Creak!

The Porsche 911 stopped at the riverside road.

Amber raised her hand and moved the long hairs on her forehead to the back.

Her big jewel-like eyes looked at Jack in all seriousness, “Do you know why I suddenly came back?”

Jack and Amber looked at each other, quite in a daze.

Right when Jack wanted to say something, Amber was one step ahead, “Because of you... I like you! I

came back for you!”

That was so sudden so Jack was quite panic-stricken.

He pretended to be calm and smiled, “Is this a confession?”

Amber nodded in seriousness, “I have always liked you since sophomore year. But you have always

liked Katherine, so I kept suppressing myself. When you got married, I wished you well as your

bridesmaid... Hoping that you'll live a long and happy life with her, but ...”

After a pause, Amber lowered her head.

She then calmed down and said, “But I never thought that the Parry family would treat you like that. I

knew what happened to you all these years, I knew it all... My heart hurts...”

The emotions that had calmed down surged up again.

That made Amber's tears flowed uncontrollably.

“I knew you have endured a lot for these three years. I can't even imagine how you're able to get

through for the past month. So I immediately thought of coming back here after I knew that you and

Katherine got a divorce. I want to be by your side and share your burden with me... Even if I'm just

lending my shoulder for you to lean on.”

Jack was completely lost at the sight of Amber sobbing.

He hadn't sensed that Amber felt something special for him.

The way the two of them getting along since they knew each other in the university had always been

full of laughter and jokes.

After taking a deep breath, Jack took the tissue and wiped Amber's tears.

He slowly spoke with a bitter smile, “It's not fair for you, I just got a divorce from Katherine not long

ago.”

Amber had always been single, while he had divorced from Katherine.

“I don't care.”

Amber's eyes looked firm, “After three years being overseas... It's not like my parents didn't let me

make some friends, I just can't forget you. Even if those guys were better, but I don't know why my

mind was full of you every time I face them.”

Jack smiled and pretended like he's joking, “Why so serious? Am I still so charming?”

“I don't even know when did I start falling for you.”

Amber's crying voice sounded so pitiful and helpless.

The feelings came from an unknown place but it was so deep...

Jack hesitated.

He suddenly didn't know how to answer Amber.

Amber suddenly threw herself at Jack after seeing how he was hesitant.

Their eyes met under the yellow dim streetlight that shone through the car.

The tears on Amber's face were faintly glowing, pitiful and beautiful

Both of her hands held Jack's face.

She softly spoke, “I don't care about your past, I just want to have your future. I'm willing to help you to

reach the position you're capable of and let you shine. I won't be living off you like Katherine and the

others did.”

After saying that, she bowed down... And kissed him.

In an instant, Jack straightened up his body while feeling the softness on his lips. His mind went blank.

Suddenly, as if Jack was struck by lightning, he hugged Amber's waist.

Then, he softly pushed her away, “Amber, s-sorry... I think that we should think calmly.”

He opened the door and stepped out of the car after saying that.

Amber sat inside the car, dumbfounded.

She faintly watched Jack leaving while biting her red lips. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

Soon, she laid her trembling body on the steering pan.

Jack left the riverside highway, and reached the embankment.

He just walked aimlessly along the embankment.

With the cool river breeze blowing, Jack looked at the sparkling river surface.

He felt a quite at a loss or caught off guard.

Even at that time, his mind was buzzing and blank.

He didn't expect Amber to have such feelings for him.

What's even more unexpected, was that Amber confessed to him in such a sudden way and so quickly.

But... Would it be fair for Amber?

Sitting on the embankment, Jack was dazed.

He felt very irritable at heart.

Jack, who has never smoked, suddenly wanted to light a cigarette to suppress the irritating feelings in

his heart.

His family background was very different to Amber.

Because of it, he really thought he social-climbed Katherine when he married her.

Thus, he worked hard after his marriage to earn more money.

But in exchange, he almost couldn't save his mother.

If it weren't for Mr. Ward...

Thinking of that, Jack's eyes suddenly glowed.

He stretched his hand out to the Bauhinia bank card in his pocket.

Jack suddenly laughed at himself.

“Yeah, Amber doesn't even care and she can even do things to such extent... Why should I care?”

While murmuring, Jack sent Amber a message through his phone.

“Sorry, I shouldn't have walked away just now.”

After a pause, he sent another message.

“I think, we can try it.”

In such a short time, he frowned at the thought of Amber's words.

He sent the third message.

“But you must promise not to help me, I can do it. I'll soon give you a surprise, because my situation

now isn't as bad as you think. Furthermore... I don't want to live off a woman.”

Ding!

Amber finally replied.

The message was so simple but it made Jack felt at a loss.

“Hehe... you already did.”
