Praised, Amber got relieved and happy. "Thank you for your praise, Grandpa. By the way, what do you call me for? Is your mission about to end?"
"No. Such a large-scale archaeological project always takes a year or so. We just cleaned up the passageway to the main tomb and we are going to enter the main tomb tomorrow. Thus, I want you to find an archaeological note in the study of my old house and send it to me."
"I see. When will you want it? Do you need it sooner?" Amber asked.
'Grandpa Reed's old house was in the countryside. It would take Amber three hours to drive there.
If Grandpa Reed needed the note right now, Amber would probably arrive in the evening if she set off now.
"No. You can send it over this week. I'll text you the address later." Grandpa Reed chuckled.
Amber nodded. "Okay. Then I'll go to your house tomorrow."
After that, Amber and Grandpa Reed asked each other about what happened to each other recently for a while before hanging up.
After putting down her phone, Amber saw that Jared was staring at her.
Amber subconsciously replied, "It's my Grandpa."
"I know." Jared nodded. "But you've never told me that you have a Grandpa."
Amber put her phone into her handbag. "My grandpa is an archaeologist. He's always in the wilds. Plus, he's a low-profile person, so, not much to talk about."
Jared nodded. "What did he ask you to do?"
"Send him some archaeological materials." Amber did not hide anything from Jared.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
Amber turned around and saw an unfamiliar doctor standing outside the door with a nurse.
"Mr. Farrell, it's check time!" The nurse looked at Jared and reminded him.
Jared knew that the doctor next to the nurse was from the Cardiology Department. Jared's eyes darkened and he said to Amber, "Amber, you can wait outside."
Amber didn't think too much about it. In case she would affect the check, she nodded. "Well, it's getting late. I should go and make some food for you. What do you want to eat?"
"Mr. Farrell can only eat light food!" Afraid that Jared would get worse due to inappropriate food, the doctor hurriedly said.
Jared glanced at the doctor coldly.
The doctor looked at the nurse somewhat innocently, not knowing what he had done wrong.
The nurse rolled her eyes at the doctor.
She thought, "What a stupid man!
Mr. Farrell's eyes were even glowing when that lady asked what he wanted to eat.
But now, Mr. Farrell's eyes are cold after he heard what you said.
Mr. Farrell is angry now!"
Seeing this, Amber covered her lips and chuckled. "What about porridge with some light snacks?"
"Okay, as you wish." When Jared looked back at Amber, his eyes instantly turned soft.
He had wanted to eat the poached fish she made.
Jared remembered that it was the first meal Amber made for him =after they were married. It had a strong aroma.
Nevertheless, back then, Jared was hypnotized and didn't recognize Amber, so, despite the strong aroma, he didn't even take a bite of it.
And now, Jared especially wanted that dish.
What's more, he wished he could taste all the meals she had cooked in these three years. If so, he would die with satisfaction.
