Chapter 516 Cole's Purpose
Chapter 516 Cole's Purpose
They stood on the balcony with their backs to the hall.
Jared couldn't see their fronts, so he didn't know what they were talking about.
However, there was a distance between the two. Jared's mood got slightly better.
"When did Cole Lyon arrive?" Jared asked coldly.
Ben checked his wristwatch. "Less than twenty minutes ago."
Jared slightly nodded. "What's the matter?"
"Lady Georgia wants to see you," Ben answered.
Jared hummed. "I'll be there soon. Please keep an eye on them. As long as Cole Lyon dares to
approach Amber, separate them."
Ben's lips twitched.
Mr. Farrell was being childish.
However, he dared not to tell it in Jared's face. He pushed up his glasses and answered, "I got it, Mr.
Farrell."
On the balcony.
Cole shook the goblet in his hand and looked at the unhappy woman. He asked with concern, "What's
wrong? Are you in a bad mood? I've been talking to you for a while, but you didn't reply a word."
Amber clinked her goblet with his, gulped down a mouthful of wine, and answered, "Yeah. I'm a bit
down."
Cole turned around, resting his arms on the handrail behind. "What on earth happened?"
Amber looked out of the balcony. "Nothing. I just suddenly feel that love is the most unreliable thing in
this world."
Upon hearing it, Cole paused. "Love?"
"Ehn." Amber nodded. "Didn't I tell you Jared mentioned he would give up on me? However, he went
back on his word tonight. He said he would wait for me. Cole, don't you think he's ridiculous?"
What a fickle man!
She wondered what she meant to him.
Cole pinched his goblet tightly. His smile stiffened a bit. "It is ridiculous indeed. What about you? What
do you think?"
"Me?"
"Right. Did you say yes?"
Amber took a sip of the wine. "How could I? I don't love him. I just feel angry, feeling as if I was fooled."
"Great." Cole breathed a sigh of relief.
Amber hadn't realized that she had fallen in love with Jared again.
He was afraid that she would know it unconsciously.
Then, he would lose his chance again.
"Great?" Amber heard his remark. She hurriedly turned around and looked at him weirdly. "How could
you be happy about I've been fooled?"
Cole waved his hand and shook his head hard. "No. No. Babe, I didn't mean that. I meant it was great
that you didn't say yes to him."
"Really?" Amber cast him a glance.
“Really.” Cole raised his hand to vow.
Amber curled her lips. "All right. I believe you, but I still think you're hinting at something else."
“No way!" Cole looked away in the sense of guilt. "Babe, stop overthinking.”
He raised his head and gulped down the wine.
Amber also believed that she had overthought, so she withdrew her gaze, bent over her head, and
looked down at the goblet,
lost in thought.
A few seconds later, she said, “Jared said he suddenly gave up on me for a reason. What reason could
it be?"
Cole put away the empty goblet. "How would I know? Probably he was just saying it casually.”
“Saying it casually?" Amber looked at him.
Cole nodded. "Right. He gave up on you earlier, but now he regret it. Hence, he needs to find an
excuse for doing that, but he
failed to find one, so he just told you there was a reason behind it to muddle through."
“For real?" Amber muttered.
Cole looked solemn. "Of course. I'm also a man. I understand what's in his mind. Babe, trust me."
He reached his hand to pat her on her shoulder.
Ben, who was watching them from afar, realized that he needed to do his job. Heaving a sigh, he tidied
up his necktie and
walked to the balcony.
“Excuse me, Mr. Lyon." Ben stood in front of Amber and Cole.
Cole looked over at him, his face becoming annoyed. "What are you doing here? Did Jared ask you to
come?"
“Nah. Sir, your mother wants to see you," Ben pushed up his glasses and answered calmly.
Cole was taken aback. "My mother?"
"Yes." Ben nodded.
“Why does she want to see me now? Why did she ask you to come to me?"
“I have no idea about that. Mr. Lyon, why don't you ask her yourself?" Ben gazed at his hand on
Amber's shoulder. He added,
“Hurry up, Mr. Lyon. It seemed to be something urgent."
“Go ahead, Cole. What if Mrs. Lyon really wants help?" Amber urged.
Cole nodded. “All right. I'll go check on her. You..."
Amber checked her watch. “It’s getting late. I must go home now. I'll say bye to Grandma."
“Okay. I might not be able to ride you home. My father will introduce a few friends to me," Cole rubbed
between his eyebrows
and said in a migraine.
Amber smiled. "It's good for you, Cole. Alli right. Hurry up and go.”
“Okay. Bye, Amber." Cole raised his hand and wanted to rub her hair.
Seeing that, Ben immediately urged, "Mr. Lyon, hurry up.”
Cole glared at him in anger. "Save the reminder to yourself. Mind your own business."
He put down his hand that almost touched Amber's head.
With both hands in his pocket, he left the balcony.
Watching him go, Ben breathed a sigh of relief.
Jared asked him to watch Amber and Cole.
Once Cole wanted to have any physical contact with Amber, Ben needed to separate them.
Now, he did it.
“Ben." Amber didn't know what was in his mind. She walked to him. "Where is Grandma now?"
“Ms. Reed, if you want to see Lady Georgia, I can take you over," said Ben.
Amber nodded. "Thanks, Ben."
“You are welcome. Let's go." He gestured, showing the way.
Amber followed him, walking in the direction opposite Cole.
Georgia was having tea with Jared in a pavilion.
Looking at her outstanding son, Georgia said, "“Shonna Woodham almost knocked Amber onto the
floor. After you saved Amber, did you see how she got worried about you?"
Jared put down the teacup with tenderness on his face. "Ehn. I saw it."
“Amber has a crush on you again," Georgia rubbed the walking stick and said, "I thought she would
never be attracted by you again after stopping loving you. I was wrong. I'm pretty curious why she has
fallen in love with you again. What happened? NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
After all, when I saw her last month, she still disgusted you. But now she likes you. I don't think nothing
has happened.”
“Grandma, you are awesome." Jared picked up the teapot and refilled her teacup. "Something has
happened between Amber and me in the past month. I don't want to tell you, Grandma. I'd rather keep
it secret. Grandma, you only need to know Amber started loving me again."
