Winner Takes All novel Chapter 834

The night was quiet and peaceful.

When the sky had just glowed faintly, Jack who was still in deep slumber vaguely felt some movements near him.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Amber burrowing herself into their blanket carefully.

This made Jack instantly freshened up.

“Why did you stick yourself in?”

His sudden question made Amber freeze on the spot.

Amber was gaping at Jack with astonishment, “D—Did I wake you up?”

Jack didn’t say anything as his gaze was fixed on Amber.

The next second, Amber suddenly smiled ruefully as she plastered herself on Jack’s chest. She began to suck up to him with her eyes stretched wide, “I have been missing you a lot, so I want to sleep with you.”

Jack furrowed his brows and said in a low bass voice, “Amber, how many times did I need to tell you this? We need to sleep separately now. It’s taking into consideration your body.”

“But I still want to sleep with you, even without doing anything. Can’t I just idle by your side like this?”

Amber was looking very indignant, and some tears could be seen in her eyes.

However, Jack’s gaze was determined as he looked at Amber, “Are you sure that you’re just going to chill by my side?”

Their eyes met.

In the face of Jack’s scorching gaze, Amber looked a little flustered as she quickly averted her gaze, “Yes… maybe… that’s right.”

Jack could only let out a sigh.

Then he lightly pushed Amber away from clinging to him and he followed up with a pinching at her nose.

“Hey, it hurts!”

Amber quickly removed Jack’s hand as she showed a lightly agonized expression.

Jack smiled nonchalantly, “How can I trust you while you are so unsure of yourself?”

As he said that, Jack put on his clothes and moved to his wheelchair.

He stole a glance at Amber who was looking pitiful and started to console her with a smile, “Enough. After your confinement period is over, we will resume sleeping together again. I will try to control myself during this period of time. Your health is my priority!”

Amber’s eyes flickered with some reflection.

In the end, she could only nod helplessly, “Alright, then.”

When the two of the left the room, they immediately sniffed the aroma of dishes.

Jack took in the aroma and laughed, “Daisy’s cooking is really getting better.”

“Then, you should eat more today as a sigh of approval!”

Daisy replied with a smile.

Very soon, Mysterious Man, Brent and Mr. Ward all woke up.

They shared the breakfast in an upbeat mood.

Nobody brought up the “Bloody Trap” during the whole time. It was as if today was nothing more than an ordinary one, and nothing of interest had happened recently.

After they finished their breakfast, Amber and Daisy busied themselves on clearing the dishes while Jack, Mysterious Man, Mr. Ward and Brent huddled around the living area to enjoy some tea.

The casual, light mood was no more.

“I guess that everything is going to start from today?”

After putting down his tea cup, Jack broke the silence.

“Roughly.”
