Amber immediately shook her head. "Nah! It won't happen again."
"That's right." Cole snorted and let go of her.
Then, Amber raised her hands to rub her temples. "How long did I sleep, Cole?"
"Two days," he answered.
Amber gaped. "Two days??"
"Yep." Cole nodded. "Elias Lansdale said you had excessive fatigue, so you slept for two days."
"I see." Amber raised her chin in a trance. "How did I come back to Olkmore?"
She remembered she had fainted in a yard of a villager.
Then she had no idea about what had happened next.
"Jared Farrell's assistant, Ben Channing, brought you back with Jared Farrell. Ben informed me on the phone, so I hurriedly came to the hospital. I happened to see you and Jared be sent to the emergency room. Then I asked Ben what had happened. He told me you were kidnapped and fell off the cliff. Jared also jumped off to save you. My heart stopped beating when I heard that." Cole patted his chest without hiding anything from her.
When hearing Jared's name, Amber widened her eyes and asked hurriedly, "How about Jared? Where is he now?"
Seeing that she cared so much about that man, Cole felt a bit frustrated...
However, thinking that Jared rescued Amber after she had fallen off the cliff, Cole had to suppress his discomfort. He answered honestly, "Calm down, Babe. He's also in the hospital. His ward is next door."
"How's he doing now?" Amber grabbed his arm and asked.
Cole looked solemn. "He's in poor condition. He has been injured too seriously. He had a broken arm. The wound on his back cracked. His organs were also injured. Moreover, he has a cerebral concussion and is on fever. Quite severe."
Upon hearing Jared's condition, Cole was shocked.
Jared still survived with so many injures. How lucky he was!
Cole had a complicated feeling towards him and admired him because Jared was injured for saving Amber.
"That's really serious..." Amber bit her lower lip. "Is he not out of danger yet?"
Cole said, "Yes, he has been out of danger. His broken arm has been dealt with. He's still in a coma, though."
Upon hearing his answer, Amber breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good. He's out of danger. Please help me up, Cole."
She reached out to him.
Cole helped her up.
She lifted the quilt and was about to get off the bed, bearing the pain and soreness.
Cole stopped her. "What are you doing, Babe?"
"I want to check on him," Amber said, putting on her shoes.
Cole wanted to stop her from seeing Jared, but he couldn't speak out his objection after this event. His lips parted. Heaving a sigh, he said, "Slow down. Don't rush. He won't run away."
He took her arm to help her.
They walked out of the ward, heading to the one next door.
The door of Jared's ward was opened. Amber stood at the door, only to find that Elias was standing in front of the bed. He was writing on the medical record while speaking. Ben nodded from time to time.
Jared was lying on the bed. His face wasn't red, looking pale. Amber could tell he wasn't on fever anymore.
She raised her hand to knock on the door.
Elias stopped and looked over with Ben.
Seeing her, Elias pushed up his glasses and asked, "You are awake."
Amber hummed in response.
