Chapter 57


    Chapter 57 Amber Was Still Alive


    Three of them saw from the CCTV that Amber and Cole had entered the hot spring resort an hour ago.


    Since then, Amber had nevere out.


    As evidenced by this, Amber was still at the hot spring resort.


    “Let me have a look at the hot spring area!” said Cole and he left immediately.


    Makenna raised her hand to Jared, who stood beside her and asked gently, “Jared, can we not go


    there?”


    “Of course, we have to go! Cole had suspected you of being involved in Amber’s disappearance, so we


    must go there to dispel his suspicion. Let’s go,” said Jared.


    Makenna smiled and said, “Alright.”


    When they arrived at the resort’s entrance, Cole was dealing with the security guard.


    “Mr Lyon, I told you there is no one inside because it is now out of operating hours,” the security guard


    said as he stopped Cole from entering


    Cole scratched his hair. Just when he was about to say something, a shrill from the building drew


    everyone’s attention.


    They noticed a cleaner running out with a frightened expression while mumbling something to herself.


    The


    security guard stopped her and asked, “What’s wrong?”


    The cleaner answered, “Someone is dead!”


    “What?”


    Everyone was stunned.


    The cleaner pointed to the building with her trembling hand and said, “Someone died in the shower


    room of the female spa!”

    “Amber!” Cole looked horrified, and he immediately rushed into the building.


    Others, including the security guard and Jared, followed him as well.


    On their way to the spot, Jared’s face was tense, and the air around him seemed to have been more


    depressing.


    Amber was dead?


    Was this a joke? Was this a prank from her?


    Jared gritted his teeth, and his heart throbbed inexplicably, disturbing his breathing rhythm.


    Makenna noticed a shift in his demeanour, and her heart was filled with jealousy and grudge, but she


    pretended to be sad and said, “Jared,


    why was Amber so unfortunate to die at such a young age?”


    She said this as if she was saddened by Amber’s death.


    However, she was smiling in her heart.


    This was fantastic news


    She wouldn’t have to be concerned about anything else now that Amber had died.


    They opened the door without hesitation when they arrived at the shower room, despite the words


    “Ladies Only” on the door. They saw Amber


    lina on the door mili


    After regainingposure, Cole walked slowly towards Amber.


    Amber’s pale face caught Jared’s attention as he stood in the doorway. He clenched his hand


    unconsciously.


    It really was Amber!


    She was dead!


    At that moment, Jared felt his heart twitched, so painful as if he had lost something important.


    Just then, Cole eximed excitedly. “She is still alive! Amber is still alive, and she is still breathing!”


    What?


    Makenna’s smile froze, and her eyes were filled with disbelief.


    Amber was still alive?


    Jared stared intently at Cole and asked, “Seriously?”


    “It’s true, of course. Amber is really still alive,” Cole said as he ced his hand beneath Amber’s nose


    to detect her faint breathing.


    The security guard sighed with relief while looking dissatisfiedly at the cleaner, “What’s wrong with you?


    How could you say she is dead when she’s still alive?”


    The cleaner responded, “I was shocked when I saw someone lying on the ground with blood around


    her, so I assumed she was dead”


    The security guard was rendered speechless.


    Makenna also red angrily at the cleaner because she had been happy for nothing due to the


    cleaner’s rumour.


    Also, Amber, why didn’t she just die after stepping on the shower gel!


    Makenna quickly settled her emotions and smiled, “That is great! Isn’t it really good news that Amber is


    still alive, Jared?”


    Jared didn’t answer and continued walking in the direction of Cole and Amber.


    Cole was shaking Amber to wake her up.


    Jared was enraged by his actions, which werepletely devoid ofmon medical sense. He


    twisted the back of Cole’s cor to drag him away from Amber.


    “Jared, what are you doing?” Cole growled.


    “She was obviously in a seriousa, and you can’t wake her up by shaking her,” Jared said, slightly


    raising his eyelids and scowled at him coldly. He added, “This would only aggravate her head injury. If


    you don’t want her to die, you should call a doctor immediately.”


    Cole froze for a moment and smacked himself in the face after hearing his words.


    He was so nervous that he hadn’t even considered calling a doctor


    Cole hurriedly took out his phone and called the resort.


    Jared squatted down and gently lifted Amber’s head, allowing her to lean into his arms.


    Then, he tore off a piece of fabric from his shirt and used it as a bandage to wrap around her injured


    head and perform some basic first aid. There was a sense of heartache and pity that he was


    Makenna was jealous when she saw this, but she didn’t stop him.


    She was well aware that if she stopped him at this point, it would only show how narrow–minded she


    had be to the point of being unable to tolerate an injured person.


    Cole said after calling the resort, “The resort had already appointed a doctor to Amber’s room. What we


    needed to do now was return her to


    the room.”


    Jared embraced Amber in his arms after tying a knot in the bandage.


    After seeing this, Cole immediately put his phone back in his pocket and extended his hand. He added,


    “Just pass Amber to me.”


    “You are clearly unsuitable to care for her based on what you have done just now,” Jared said coldly


    and refused to hand over Amber.


    Coleughed in exasperation, “If I am not suitable, are you suitable? Jared, don’t forget about your


    divorce from Amber. I’m now her boyfriend!”


    “That’s right, Jared. You should hand over Amber to Cole since he is her boyfriend. I believed Cole


    would take good care of her,” advised by Makenna gently while pulling Jared’s sleeve.


    Jared’s grip on Amber tightened, but he eventually handed her over with a sullen face.


    Cole grunted at him and turned to walk away with Amber in his arms.


    When Jared looked at their backs, he was irritated. Clenching his fist, he felt a sticky feeling in his


    hands. After careful examination, he discovered an unknown liquid in his hand, along with Amber’s


    blood.


    That liquid smelled like fragrance, and when Jared rubbed it, it bubbled up. Perhaps the unknown liquid


    was a shampoo or shower gel. Since he had just contacted Amber, the liquid was most probably from


    her.


    After his thought, Jared looked towards the ce where Amber had fainted. There was indeed a


    puddle of the same liquid there.


    Jared snorted.


    Amber was so clumsy that she could spill her toiletries and fall because of stepping on them.


    “Jared, since Cole and Amber had left, let’s go back too,” said Makenna while taking his arms in hers.


    Jared lifted his arm to withdraw his hand and said, “Let me wash my hand first.”


    After that, he walked to the sink to wash off the blood and shower gel before leaving the resort.


    When Makenna returned to the room, she grabbed a bathrobe and handed it to Jared, saying, “Jared,


    there was some blood stains on you,


    You’d better take a shower again?”


    This was also Jared’s intention. He took over the bathrobe and entered the bathroom. Just then, he


    narrowed his eyes as if he had understood


    something when he smelled a familiar scent in the air.
