Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 491

"Shall I investigate them?" Cole suggested.

Amber nodded in agreement. "Sure. We must find out what they are planning. I need to know."

After all, Braylee and her mother were hidden in the dark, and she was in the open.

If Cole hadn't suddenly seen Braylee, Amber wouldn't know she had returned to Olkmore City.

Probably, when Braylee and her mother took action on her, Amber couldn't react in time.

Since Amber had known they were back, she would find out where they were staying. In that case, she could be on guard if Braylee and her mother wanted to do something to her.

"Who shall I go to? A detective or..."

"Let's hire a detective," Amber answered after thinking, "Braylee appeared nearby Goldstone. I guess she came to test something. If we sent our own men to investigate, Braylee would probably recognize them. Hence, a detective would be safer."

"I agree. I'll contact a detective then. I'll pass by a detective agency with a good reputation on the way back home. I'll talk to them," Cole said, pouring a glass of water for himself.

Amber hummed. "Thanks, Cole. By the way, why are you here?"

"Sheila called me." Cole pulled the chair and sat down. "She told me you were not in a good mood today, and she was worried, so she asked me to come over to check on you."

Amber didn't know whether to laugh or cry upon hearing his words. "I'm just a bit down. She's misunderstood. Nothing has happened to me."

"She cares about you," Cole said.

Amber nodded. "I know. I'm touched."

Although Amber explained, Cole was still worried. He looked at her and asked, "Babe, are you really OK?"

Amber nodded to confirm. "Yeah. I'm fine."

"Why are you down?" Cole asked.

Amber rubbed her temples. "Nothing, Cole. I felt I had been fooled by someone, so I was a bit down."

"Who had done it?" Cole approached her curiously.

Jared's handsome but cold face appeared in Amber's mind. She was in a trance.

Cole thought she was absentminded. He reached out and waved in front of her. "What are you thinking about dear?"

Amber returned to her senses. She looked down to cover the expression in her eyes and forced a smile to answer, "Nothing."

She felt weird. Why did she suddenly think about Jared?

She slightly shook her head to get rid of him from her mind. Then she picked up a glass from the desk, took a sip, and returned to calm.

However, Cole witnessed all her weird expressions and behaviors.

He squinted. A shrewd light flashed through his eyes. Then he faked nothing had happened and smiled. "By the way, Babe. Can you do me a favor?"

"What?" Amber put down her glass and looked at him in confusion.

Cole approached her with a cheeky smile. "Be my date."

"Puff—" Amber choked and spurted out the water onto his face.

Cole frowned deeply. He could feel his face was wet all over. Water dripped from his chin.

Amber felt sorry for him. She stuck her tongue out in embarrassment, pulled several tissues, and wiped the water off his face.

Then she said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Cole. I didn't mean to do it."

"Babe..." Cole looked at her in hidden complaints.

Amber smiled awkwardly. "I do apologize, Cole. I really didn't mean to do it."
