Love Letters, Divorce Papers (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 502

"Sorry, I don't know." The receptionist shook her head. "Miss Reed, you may consider calling him."

 

Amber smiled. "Alright, thank you."

 

She turned around and walked out.

 

After returning to the car, Amber took out her phone and called Cole.

 

But a cold mechanical voice blared out, "The person you have reached is unavailable. Please try again later…"

 

Amber looked at her phone with a frown.

 

It was strange.

 

Cole rarely turned off his phone.

 

What happened to him?

 

She bit her lower lip and tapped on the screen to make another call. This time, she was calling Mrs. Lyon.

 

Mrs. Lyon soon answered the call. Her gentle voice sounded, "Hey, sweetheart, why are you calling me?"

 

Amber replied with a smile, "I miss you. And, I also want to ask you something."

 

"What's the matter?" Mrs. Lyon sat on the sofa, sipping her coffee gracefully.

 

Amber leaned against the seat. "Mrs. Lyon, is Cole home?"

 

"Cole?" Mrs. Lyon shook her head. "He should be at the company now."

 

"He's not in the company." Amber rubbed her temples.

 

Mrs. Lyon put down her coffee. "What?"

 

"Yeah."

 

Mrs. Lyon pondered for a moment. "He might have a meeting or make a field trip. If you want to find him, call him."

 

"I did. His phone is off." Amber held her forehead and said helplessly.

 

Mrs. Lyon shrugged her shoulders. "Then I'm afraid I can't help. Cole sometimes is stubborn. No one can find him if he wants to hide away. By the way, are you guys in a fight?"

 

Amber replied blankly, "No, we didn't. He called me earlier and we were having a good chat, but then his mood suddenly changed. I was confused.

“What did you talk about? Can you tell me? Maybe I can help." She suggested.

Amber nodded. Then, she roughly explained the conversation with Cole.

Mrs. Lyon suddenly fell silent.

“Pretty much. That kid knows he was going to miss the chance again." Mrs. Lyon sighed, “Actually, I encouraged him to say it,
but he never listened on this. Now it's over. I think he kinda asks for it."

Mrs. Lyon continued, "Alright, forget about that. He'll be back in a while. I have to hang up because I had a date with my
friends to the beauty salon. I've got to go.”

She and Cole had been friends for more than twenty years, and they had grown up together. Cole suddenly disappeared, and
it might have something to do with her. Amber couldn't sleep tight if she couldn't figure it out. She felt like she was betraying
their friendship of more than twenty years.

She remembered that when she was eight years old, her stepmother Beatrice Sitwell slapped her in the face. Rushing out of
the house in tears, she ran into Cole who was coming to play with her.

Cole scolded Beatrice after he found out the truth, making Beatrice flustered and ran after them with a broom. Cole took
Amber out of the villa and ran to a park.
