Chapter 56 Amber Fell Down and Got Hurt
After getting changed with Japanese yukata, the two of them came to the intersection dividing the hot spring ponds for males and females.
Rolling his eyes, Cole wrapped his arm around Amber’s tender waist, “Baby, how about we take a mixed bath?”
Amber smiled at him and nudged him with her elbow.
“Ouch!” Cole covered his stomach, looking painful, “Baby, how can you hit me?”
Amber squinted at him, “You deserve it. Taking a mixed bath? Dream on!”
Cole stood upright right away, defending himself, “What’s wrong with that? We are a couple.”
“A false one.” Without paying attention to him, Amber put the bath towel on her shoulders, lifted the curtain with two large–sized letters
Temale” on it, and walked in.

Taking off the bathrobe, Amber wrapped herself up with a white towel covering her upper body to her thighs only, walking into a pond for a single person.
The water was so hot that her whole body turned red. She moaned a few times in comfort.
At that moment, the sliding door of the entrance was opened. And someone walked in.
Amber looked up. Through the swirling vapor, she saw the face of the one coming.
It was Makenna.
Amber frowned. The resort was good. The only flaw of it was that it was too small, making her bump into the one she disliked with ease.
Makenna didn’t expect to see Amber here as well. Feeling stunned for a while, she smiled, saying, “Ms. Reed, here we meet again!”
Amber didn’t want to bother with her. Nodding her head, she got up, intending to leave.
As soon as she stepped out of the hot spring pond, Makenna’s voice rang again, “Ms. Reed, I just arrived. And you want to leave. You don’t want to see me, right? At worst, we were classmates and roommates at college.”
Standing in the pool, Amber grabbed the bathrobe and covered her chest, saying with slight ridicule, “Ms. Gardner, you’re funny. You always thought that I rubbed you the wrong way back in the university, right? And you dislike me even more now.”
Makenna leaned on the edge of another hot spring pond and looked at Amber with a light smile, “Then, Ms. Reed, do you want to know why?”
Amber sat back in the pond, “Tell me. I want to know how exactly I have offended you to make you treat me like this!”
The two of them were separated by a hot spring pond for a single person, staring at each other from a distance.
“You know. Right from the moment you entered the dormitory. I had an inexplicable sense of crisis. I always felt that you would steal
something important from me.”
Makenna pinched her naits fiercely into her hand, adding, “Sure enough, you took advantage of my car accident during the coma and snatched Jared The way you see it, will I let you go?”
Sensing the hatred in her tone, Amber wasn’t disturbed, looking as calm as ever, “Whether you believe it or not, I didn’t snatch Jared away from you when you were in a coma. Back then, you told me in person that you and he were siblings”
It is because of this that she had asked Jared to marry her
“You don’t need to explain this to me. You can’t deny the fact that you had been with him for six years.” Makenna bit her lips and looked at her.
Amber moved her lips, intending to say something. Her cell phone by the side of the pond rang. The caller was Cole.
“Hello?”
“Baby, are you done?”
“Almost done. “Amber nodded.
Cole urged her, “Then come out quickly. I heard there would be a fireworks feast later. I’ll wait for you at the sightseeing deck.”
Amber fished a towel aside with one hand and wiped the hot sweat from her face, “Okay, I’ll take a shower and come out.”
After hanging up the call, she got up and walked out of the pond. As she walked by the pond where Makenna was, she paused, saying, “Ms. Gardner, from our conversation just now, I know that you will continue to set me up with a lot of tricks. It is okay. Feel free to come at me. I will
take them all!”
After saying that, she walked away with big strides.
Makenna lowered her eyes. It was unknown what she was thinking.
After a few moments, she felt gradually dizzy from the heat. Knowing that she couldn’t spend more time here, she also got up and went to the
shower room.
Amber was taking a shower in one of the shower rooms. When Makenna came in with her toiletries, she heard her singing, which sounded
beautiful and melodious.
She couldn’t help but remember what had happened two days ago. Jared had said she used to write to him that she sang well, asking why she didn’t sing now. She dared not tell him she couldn’t sing at all, so she had to lie that something was wrong with her throat to skip this subject.
But she knew that as long as the owner of the letter was still around, all the lies she had told would one day be unraveled unless the owner of the letter disappeared!
Makenna’s eyes flashed. Looking at Amber’s cubicle door and then at the shower gel in the basin, she suddenly had a bold idea in her mind.
She squatted down and gently put the basin on the ground. Picking up the shower gel in the basin and opening it, she poured the transparent gel on the ground in front of Amber’s cubicle door.
After doing this, she smiled slightly, got up, and left quietly.
“So comfortable!” After taking a hot shower, Amber came out of the cubicle with a basin in her arms. Stepping on something unknown, she slipped and fell to the ground, knocking her head against the stairs leading to her cubicle and passing out on the spot.
On the sightseeing deck, Cole was still waiting for Amber to come over. He waited there for a long time. After the fireworks feast started, Amber was still nowhere to be seen. He took out his cell phone and called her.
her.
However, his call went through with no one answering. He couldn’t help but feel a little worried.
Baby isn’t in trouble, right?” Cole put the cell phone into his pocket, quickly left the sightseeing deck, and went back to look for Amber.
He searched for Amber in several places, but no sign of her. Then he became even more convinced that something might have happened to
Cole arrived at a room and knocked пeavily on the door, Makenna, come out!
Soon, the door opened. Jared appeared in front of him, looking gloomy.
“What do you want?”
“I’m not looking for you. I’m looking for her!” Cole looked at Makenna beside Jared.
Makenna smiled, “Mr. Lyon, what can I do for you?”
“Amber is missing!”
Jared’s pupils suddenly contracted for a moment.
Amber was missing?
Makenna perceived all Jared’s reactions.
She fiercely squeezed her palm, thinking, “I did the right thing to think of the idea of getting rid of Amber.
The fact that Amber is alive will only affect him more profoundly. Even the absence of her makes him have such a strong reaction.”
Makenna collected her inner thoughts and blinked in confusion, “Mr. Lyon, Ms. Reed is missing. Why did you come to me?”
“Why did I come to you? “Cole gasped, “You know it well in your heart. It must be you who hid her. You pushed her off the track during the day. You can do other more excessive things. I advise you to hurry up and hand her over to me. Or Jared can’t protect you!”
“How could it be that I hid Ms. Reed? I haven’t seen her since dinner. I don’t even know where she is. How can I hand her over to you?” Makenna’s eyes turned red. And she looked aggrieved.
Cole didn’t buy it, asking, “Are you going to fucking tell me or not?”
“That’s enough.” Jared took a step forward and blocked Makenna behind him, saying in a cold voice, “If Amber is not here, go check the security footage. Can you find Amber by going against Makenna?”
Hearing his words, Makenna was panicked. Thinking of something all of a sudden, she calmed down.
Cole also suddenly came to his senses. He had been busy looking for Amber so anxiously as to forget to check the CCTV. Slapping his forehead, he pointed at Makenna’s nose and said, “I’m going to the monitoring room. But I hope Amber’s disappearance has nothing to do with you. Otherwise, I won’t let you off.”
Then he left.
“Let’s go too.” Jared took off his jacket and draped it over Makenna, half–hugging her and heading for the monitoring room as well.
