Winner Takes All novel Chapter 586

Her voice was gentle.

Jack’s heart instantly filled with warmth.

His lingering anger seemed to have been smoothened.

Mr. Ward called Daisy away at the right timing.

Now, only Jack and Amber were left in the garden.

Then, he spoke, “That woman came to look for me when I was about to get off work.”

Amber’s gaze flickered and her smile seemed forced.

Slowly, she stood up and walked towards the table as she said casually, “It’s okay. It’s normal for girls to come knocking at your door when you’re so perfect.”

“Hey, you should listen to the whole story first.”

Jack wheeled the wheelchair and followed Amber to the table before he smirked, “Don’t you want to know what happened?”

While Amber was arranging the flowers, she replied, “I’m guessing you guys took some pictures, drank a little wine, took off some clothes…”

Her jealousy was coming through to Jack.

Jack quickly raised his right hand, as if to swear to the heavens, “I never thought about those things with her.”

“Oh right. But you thought about doing her, am I right?” Amber threw Jack a sideways glance. Then, she squinted her eyes, which exuded a sense of coldness that sent chills up Jack’s spine.

The next second.

Amber picked up a pair of scissors and waved it in front of Jack.

Her hand suddenly moved downwards.

In an instant, Jack clamped his legs tightly together instinctively.

Fortunately, Amber was able to stop her movement in time. She provoked him, “If you dare to do anything with her, I’ll end you!”

“Ouch!”

Jack sucked in a deep breath.

He felt a breeze of cold wind blowing against him.

He then chuckled, “I scolded her, and she left after that.”

“Oh.” Amber went back to arranging the flowers, looking as if she didn’t care at all.

Jack stared at the pair of sharp scissors in Amber’s hand and swallowed hard.

Then, he took a look at Amber’s calm and serene expression again.

He was a little puzzled, “Hey, you were not like this when you had a nightmare the other day. You were crying in my arms, so how could you forget the pleasure and be so cold towards me now?”

“Hey!”

Amber froze for a moment as her pretty face flushed with redness immediately.

Then, she threw the scissors in her hand to the table in embarrassment before turning around to pinch Jack’s cheeks as she whined, “Can you not be a pervert in front of your baby? Act like a father, can you?”

Jack’s face didn’t hurt at all, so it was obvious Amber didn’t put in much strength in pinching him.

His gaze traveled downwards towards Amber’s huge belly, raised his hand, and stroke it gently, “The baby probably can’t hear us.”

“No matter what, you are not allowed to talk dirty to me.”

Jack felt aggrieved, “What’s wrong? Can’t I do that to my wife?”

“You…”

Amber groaned in embarrassment.

She released Jack and ignored him as she continued arranging the flowers.

Jack did not leave as well. Instead, he was trying to get on her good side by helping her choose the flowers and delivering them to her so she could trim them.

This scene was peaceful and tranquil.

When Jack was immersed in choosing the flowers, Amber, who was focused on her own task suddenly asked.

“Babe, did you suspect me before too?”

Jack was stunned. His hand froze mid-air for a moment.

“No…No, I never did.” Jack smiled.

“I felt it. It happened before I woke up from my nightmare and cried in your arms when I was harassed by Hana Powell’s people at the hospital.”

Amber did not look at Jack. Her gaze was still fixed on the vase, but it was burning brightly, “A woman’s sixth sense is pretty accurate, you know?”

Freaking sixth sense!

Jack turned solemn instantly.
