Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) -
Chapter 638 Too Small for Him
Amber didn't know whether to laugh or cry when she saw Jared put slippers in front of her. "Do you really think of this as your home?" Jared knew what she meant, so he stood up and chuckled. "Isn't it a matter of time?"
Amber rolled her eyes at him. "Talk to the hand."
She put on her slippers, walked past him to the living room, picked up the remote control on the table, and turned on the heater.
Jared followed behind her. Just as he was several feet from Amber, she suddenly grabbed something and threw it at him.
He subconsciously caught it in the air, feeling touch something soft. He looked down and saw a pair of pajamas.
Amber especially bought for him.
"Go take your bath." Amber pointed at the bathroom in the living room.
If he didn't take a hot bath, he would get a fever in the morning.
Jared looked at her, holding the pajamas in his hand. "You go first."
He knew that taking a hot bath was good for their health, so he wanted her to warm up first.
Amber was quite satisfied with Jared's courtesy and concern. She pointed at her bedroom, smiling. "I'll go back to my room to shower. You don't have to wait."
Hearing this, Jared nodded slightly and walked towards the bathroom in the living room with his pajamas in his hands.
But inwardly, Jared was still a little disappointed.
He actually wished Amber could take a bath in the outside bathroom because he could smell the fragrance of her shower gel, which in a way, they had taken a shower together. Looking at Jared's back, Amber narrowed her eyes.
Somehow, she was under the delusion that Jared was thinking about something strange.
Amber shook her head to collect her thoughts and walked toward her room for a bath.
Her feet were as cold as ice. She needed to take a hot bath soon in case she got a cold.
Amber had bathed for about half an hour. If it weren't for the lack of oxygen while soaking for too long, she would have stayed in the bathroom a little longer.
Amber applied a facial mask and walked out of the room.
Jared had finished bathing and sat on the sofa for a while. He was flipping through a magazine.
Seeing Jared come out, he looked up and asked, "Are you done?"
Amber nodded and looked behind him. "Why don't you make your bed?"
A subtle gleam flashed into Jared's eyes. He closed the magazine and observed seriously, "Amber, I don't want to sleep on the sofa."
Amber arched her eyebrows. "Then where do you want to sleep? I've already changed the other room into a study and even sold the extra bed. You can only sleep on the sofa now."
Jared lowered his eyelids and said nothing.
Amber suddenly remembered what happened last night, and her eyes widened. "You mean you want to sleep in my room?"
Jared lifted his head sharply. "Can I?"
"Of course not!" Amber immediately replied, "You sneaked into my room last night. But I didn't kick you out, for I was being soft-hearted. I won't let it happen again! Just sleep on the sofa. Or go downstairs and stay with Ben."
Staying with Ben?
A hint of disgust appeared in Jared's eyes and disappeared in a flash. He straightened his back and replied, "I'm not going downstairs."
"Then go and sleep on the sofa."
"I don't want to sleep on the sofa."
"So you're determined to sleep in my room, right?" Amber glared at him.
Coming around in a full circle, they were back to the initial point again.
Amber took off her facial mask. Her skin looked like peaches, which were exceptionally moist, pink, and white, making Jared want to bite. Jared's eyes darkened as he said in a hoarse voice, "I want to sleep in your room. The other reason is that the sofa is too small for me."
"Too small?" Amber immediately observed the sofa.
The sofa was also a simple folding bed. It was 1.5 meters wide and 1.8 meters long when it unfolded. But Jared was almost six feet in height, about 1.9 meters.
The sofa was indeed too small for him.
Amber was a little speechless.
She hadn't noticed that the sofa didn't match his height. It looked like an adult sleeping in a crib.
It seemed that he had experienced a few hard nights before.
Amber sighed and turned to her room.
She suddenly turned her head and looked at the man sitting on the sofa looking at her when reaching the door. She coughed and looked away, her face reddening. "Why are you still sitting there?" "Does that mean you agree?" Jared instantly stood up, and his eyes filled with surprise.
Amber avoided Jared's eyes. "You'll have to sleep on the sofa if you don't come in."
"I'm coming!" Jared strode forward and followed her into the room.
He knew that if he didn't hurry up, Amber, who was always shy, would definitely lock the door. By then, he could only be angry with himself.
Happiness filled Jared from inside when he finally entered Amber's room with permission.
Suppose he had known that the size of the sofa could be a good reason. He should have mentioned it the first time and wouldn't have wasted so many chances.
Jared pursed his thin lips and regretted being so silly before.
Amber didn't know what he was thinking. She took a quilt from the closet and threw it on the bed. "This one is yours. I have my own."
Jared's eyes opened wide with surprise. "One for each?"
"Of course. You want to share the quilt with me?" Amber narrowed her eyes at him.
Jared didn't say anything, but, apparently, he meant it.
Amber rolled her eyes at him, then pointed at him and warned, "I've already made a concession to let you sleep in my room. Don't push your luck. Also, don't sneak under my quilt in the middle of the night. Otherwise, I'll kick you out to sleep on the sofa. Did you hear me?"
Jared nodded slightly and replied unwillingly, "OK."
Amber walked towards the vanity table with satisfaction and started daily skincare.
Jared looked at the big bed and then at the two quilts. He seemed to think of something, and a light flashed in his eyes and disappeared instantly. He shook his quilt out, sat on the bed, and looked at the woman creaming her face.
They looked like a real couple now. Jared was quite satisfied at the moment.
It might seem ridiculous. He and Amber were a real couple in the past, but he had never accompanied her like this before. And now they started to live a married life when they were about to get back together after a divorce.
And all of this was caused by Makenna.
Jared's face darkened momentarily. He immediately picked up his phone and sent a message.
Soon, he received a reply.
After reading the message, his face took on an ugly expression, and even the air around him became gloomy.
Amber saw his face through the mirror and turned to look at him, puzzling. "What's wrong?"
Jared didn't plan to keep things from her and answered, "I just sent a message to ask the investigators whether they found Makenna, but was replied that they haven't found any clues."0000☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
