My ex-wife is so beautiful novel (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 448

Only then did Elias withdraw his gaze.

Amber pressed her pale lips and looked over at him unhappily. "You can't do that, Dr. Lansdale."

The light reflected on Elias's glasses. "No worries. I just tried to scare him. I don't intend to do that for real."

"Really?" Amber squinted in disbelief.

Elias was more like a devil than a doctor. Earlier, when he mistook Makenna for her, he would even dare to kill others for her.

Hence, Amber believed that Elias could definitely do something to Jared and had the guts to do so.

"Of course. I won't let you down even if I disappoint all others." Elias patted her on the shoulder. "All right. Go ahead to take a look at him. Please excuse me."

Then he withdrew his hand, put it back in the pocket of his white gown, and left the ward.

Amber looked at Jared. "Cole, Ben, could you please go out for a moment. I want to spend some time with him, alone."

Ben frowned. He didn't refuse but left the ward.

Cole stayed. "Hi, Babe. He hasn't woken up yet. Why do you want to stay here with him alone? He can't hear you if you speak."

"I know, Cole. I have some ideas. Please leave," Amber looked over at him determinedly.

Cole couldn't do anything but agree. He turned around and walked to the door.

Cole went to Ben outside the ward and was about to talk with him. Suddenly, his phone rang.

He pulled it to check the caller ID. It was Jeremy.

Ben was standing next to him to see Cole's phone screen. He saw Jeremy's name and sneered. "Now the ringleader has shown up. I thought he was too cowardly to appear after harming Mr. Farrell and Ms. Reed."

Three days ago, Jared and Amber fell off the cliff.

Ben was busy contacting the rescue team, finding someone to search down the mountain.

Jeremy vanished without any trace. After they had found Amber and Jared, Jeremy still didn't show up.

Hence, Ben didn't care to know what Jeremy had done in the three days after vanishing. He just knew that Jeremy hid right after learning he had made trouble.

Cole glared at Ben. He was unhappy about Ben's remark but couldn't retort.

Since Amber and Jared were in danger, Jeremy hadn't appeared for real.

Rubbing his temples, Cole swiped to answer the call.

"Amber has woken up, hasn't she?" Jeremy asked hoarsely, sounding weird, somehow.

Cole felt creepy after hearing his voice. He could tell Jeremy seemed to have changed but couldn't tell in what way. He nodded and answered, "Yes, she has."

"That's good," said Jeremy.

Cole pressed his lips and asked, "Jeremy, tell me honestly. Where have you been since Babe and Jared Farrell fell off the cliff? Why didn't you search for them with Ben Channing and his men? Why didn't you show up in the past two days?"

On the other end of the line, Jeremy was sitting in a black room. He suddenly raised his head, a reddish light flashing through his eyes. "Because I'm busy with something."

"What on earth is it to stop you from searching for them?" Cole roared in anger.

Jeremy looked weirder. "It's none of your business. Tell Amber. I'll check on her in the hospital later."

Then he directly hung up the phone.

Cole stomped in a fury. "Bastard!"

Amber walked out of Jared's ward and happened to overhear him curse, so she asked, "Cole, what's wrong?"

Cole put down his phone. "It's Jeremy. I asked him why he hadn't shown up in the past few days. He was unwilling to tell me the truth."

Talking about Jeremy, Amber recalled something and asked, "By the way, how's Jere doing?"
