"That's good to know." Hayden patted his chest at ease and asked, "Who attacked you?"
"I don't know. It's currently being investigated and the result should be available tomorrow," Amber said.
Hayden sighed with some regret. "I wanted to do you a favor."
"No, you'd better take Jayden back first. He didn't eat and sleep well with me these days. It is not good for his health. He needs a good rest," Amber said.
Hayden got what Amber implied, so he nodded in frustration, "Well, I see. I will visit you tomorrow. Jayden, say goodbye to aun… Amber!"
"Goodbye, Auntie!" Jayden waved goodbye to Amber.
Although Amber could not see it, she waved goodbye to Jayden in return.
Hayden picked up Jayden and left.
Amber was left alone in the ward. The sudden silence made her feel a little scared, especially when she couldn't see anything.
Amber didn't know who will enter her ward in the next second and whether it was a good person or a bad guy.
If Trenton suddenly came and tried to kill Amber, Amber couldn't do anything at all.
"Is there anyone out there?" Amber shouted, wanting to call the caregiver back.
When Hayden came, the caregiver went out without returning. Amber didn't know where the caregiver went.
If the caregiver was here, Amber wouldn't be so scared. At least, the caregiver would tell Amber who the visitor was.
"Gwen, are you here?" Amber grabbed the quilt and shouted again.
Suddenly, a low and familiar voice interrupted her. "What's wrong?"
It was Jared!
Amber opened her eyes wide, and the fear in her heart disappeared at once.
Amber shook her head with relief. "I'm fine. I'm a little scared to be alone, so I want Gwen back. She is not here, but having you here helps."
At this moment, Amber admitted that she needed Jared.
Jared was at least not a stranger, and with him here, Amber would not face the dark unknown.
Hearing Amber's words "having you here helps", Jared was stunned for a while. Then he was over the moon, and he even forget the pain on his back.
Jared walked over to the bed. "Don't be afraid. I'll be here with you all the time."
Amber opened her mouth, wanting to tell Jared that he could leave after Stella came back.
But on second thought, she found it was a little, so she didn't say anything.
Jared got a chair and sat down. "Have you got the answer?"
Amber knew what he meant. She narrowed her eyes. "Yes, Sharon's answer surprised me. She is not the woman attacking me. She is just a scapegoat!"
"What?" Jared's face darkened. "A scapegoat?"
"Yes, Sharon has a son who is suffering from leukemia and needed a large sum of money. Therefore, Sharon agreed to take the fall. As long as Sharon doesn't confess who the attacker was and takes the fall, her son's medical bills will be paid." Amber shook her head with emotion.
Jared pursed his lips and said in a cold voice, "Who is the real attacker?"
"I don't know, and Sharon doesn't know either. She just described the attacker's appearance. Cole will ask a painter to draw a portrait according to the description," Amber replied.
Jared's eyes darkened and he wanted to say something. However, a phone rang interrupted him.
It's Amber's phone.
Jared looked towards the phone on the bed and saw that it was Cole. Jared's eyes turned sharp at once.
But Jared handed the phone to Amber. "It's Cole."
Amber thanked Jared and put the phone to her ear. "Cole, what's wrong?"
