My ex-wife is so beautiful novel (Jared and Amber) novel Chapter 639

Hearing this, Amber, who was applying hand cream, stopped. After a bit of silence, she asked, "Didn't Elias say that they could start with doctors and hospitals for treating ALS? No news?"

Jared nodded, "There is no record of any of these institutions, or the doctors in these institutions have received or visited new patients with ALS. Therefore, the investigation team concluded that Makayla didn't want treatment."

Amber twisted her eyebrows. "What? Is she crazy?"

ALS was one of the most fatal diseases in the world. There wasn't any way to heal it. It could, at best, be contained.

Those diagnosed with ALS had to start the treatment as soon as possible. Otherwise, their body would turn stiff very quickly. Their muscles would atrophy. Eventually, they would be paralyzed, and then die in pain.

Makayla, in order not to go to jail, would do anything, including putting her life in danger.

Amber was puzzled. She thought, "Makayla should cherish her life. After all, she is bent on my death.

How could she allow herself to die while I'm still alive?"

Therefore, Amber couldn't figure out why Makayla didn't see a doctor.

However, Amber had no intention to go on racking her brain.

She resumed what she was doing, and gently said, "Alright. No matter where she is, as long as she has ALS, one day, she'll show up. It's getting late, you should rest."

Amber planned to get in bed after he had fallen asleep.

She hadn't been used to getting in bed together with him. It felt kind of weird doing so.

However, Jared didn't do as asked. He lifted her quilt and patted her side of the bed. "It's late. Come up."

He couldn't wait to see her get into bed. Amber twitched her lips slightly at her eagerness.

She shook her head. "No. Just sleep. I'll get in bed after you fall asleep."

Jared instantly understood that Amber was shy.

They were not in a relationship, nor did they get married. Amber was a shy girl. She couldn't just get into bed so naturally as he did.

She would feel less embarrassed if he fell asleep.

But this time, Jared didn't plan to listen to Amber.

The room was heated, yet it could still be very cold to sit outside.

Not to mention that he had no idea when would he fall asleep.

"Good girl, come up now. Otherwise, I won't sleep. Are we going to compete about this?" After saying that, Jared picked up his phone.

Amber never thought Jared could be so stubborn. She was so angry that she widened her eyes.

She knew that he did it on purpose. He wanted her to get into bed while he was still awake.

Well, she just wouldn't do what he wanted.

Amber sat on the dressing stool, and stared at Jared with her arms around her, waiting for him to fall asleep.

Jared knew she was looking at him, of course, but he pretended not to know. He casually scratched his phone with his thumb.

The two of them are competing. She was waiting for him to fall asleep.

He was waiting for her to get in.

Jared didn't mind playing this with Amber.

He also wanted to know who would win.

For a moment, none of them spoke. The room was deadly quiet.

Amber had been silently wishing that Jared would fall asleep soon.

However, Jared was not sleepy at all. He was energetic.

Amber felt exhausted from the inside out.

If this went on, she would have to wait for a long time.

Amber looked down, hiding the bitter smile in her eyes.

But no matter what, she would not give in. She took a deep breath and went on waiting.

After ten more minutes or so, Amber felt her feet turn cold, as well as her back.

The heater was on in the room. However, one always feels cold when it's time to sleep. To make things worse, Amber was wearing a thin layer.

Thinking of this, Amber trembled.
