"Fine. I won't take off my coat. I just thought of a way to get warm together." Jared curled his lips and replied.
Amber looked puzzled. "What?"
Jared didn't answer. He lowered his head and continued to unbutton the buttons.
Soon, he unbuttoned his coat, pulled it apart, and said to Amber, "Come inside my coat. I'll hold you."
Amber instantly understood his method. He planned to have her in his arms so that both of them could get warm in his coat.
She had no choice but to admit that it was the best way to get warm now. How did he get the idea?
Amber shook her head in amusement. Not being shy or feeling embarrassed, she took a deep breath and stepped forward to hug him.
After all, it was too cold to act shyly.
When Amber put her arms around his waist, Jared pulled his coat closer around him.
His coat was so oversized that he could even button it again.
Amber's entire body was covered entirely under his coat, including her head, and the warmth of Jared's body also enveloped her, making Amber not feel cold anymore. Her trembling body gradually warmed up.
Jared felt the change in Amber's body. He lowered his head and rubbed his chin against Amber's head. "Are you feeling better?"
"Yeah, I felt better." Amber's voice came from his coat, muffled.
Jared breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good."
"Has Ben not come yet?" Amber pressed her forehead against the man's chest and asked.
Jared looked at the road and furrowed his brows. "Not yet. He'd come here when we left the cinema. But he hasn't shown up yet."
"Maybe he was held up on the way here. Let's wait for a bit." Amber sighed.
Jared nodded and hugged her tighter.
They stood under the eaves of the cinema and waited for a while before the familiar Maybach finally appeared.
The car door opened. Ben held an umbrella and ran towards Jared, carrying one more umbrella in his hand.
As Ben reached Jared, he quickly apologized, "Sorry I'm late, Mr. Farrell."
"What happened?" Jared looked at him and asked in a low voice.
Ben straightened his glasses and replied, "When I drove from the public parking lot, there was a car accident on the road, so I got stuck for a while."
He didn't arrive late on purpose.
Jared thawed slightly when hearing the reason and uttered, "Give me the umbrella."
"Yes," Ben replied and handed Jared the umbrella.
Suddenly, he thought of something and asked with astonishment, "Mr. Farrell, why are you here all alone? Where is Ms. Reed? She left early?"
Jared didn't answer him and reached out to take the umbrella.
His coat opened as he moved, and the woman in his arms immediately showed.
At the sight of Amber hiding in Jared's arms, Ben was shocked, his eyes popping out of his head. " Ms. Reed? You're here!"
He thought that she had left and left Mr. Farrell alone. But she actually hid in Mr. Farrell's coat instead of leaving.
Because of Mr. Farrell's height, oversized coat, and the dark light under the eaves, Ben never noticed someone hiding in Mr. Farrell's arms.
He was just confused why Mr. Farrell was grabbing his coat tightly. It was quite uncharacteristic for Mr. Farrell to do so in public.
However, Ben didn't think much of it but only thought that Mr. Farrell was keeping warm.
It turned out that Mr. Farrell was protecting Ms. Reed from the cold.
Sure enough, the truth was always unexpected.
Ben had to admit that they were pretty romantic.
Since Ben had discovered her, Amber felt shy to continue to hug Jared.
