Chapter 140 Mountain Hike
Chapter 140 Mountain Hike
"Since everyone has agreed to go hiking, alright. Chop chop, go get changed!" Hayden rolled his eyes
as he looked at their clothes.
Cole looked down at his silk shirt and the corner of his mouth twitched. "My clothes are really not
suitable for hiking."
"Then get it changed." Amber waved her hand, motioning him to go.
She didn't need to change because she was wearing sportswear already.
"Jared, I am going to get changed." Makenna looked at her dress and said to Jared.
Jared raised his chin slightly and said, "Go ahead."
He did not need to change. Although he was not wearing sportswear, it was still fine for hiking.
"Wait for me." Makenna said and went upstairs.
The others also went back to their rooms to change their clothes. Hayden went outside to prepare the
car.
Only Amber and Jared were left in the dining room.
This was perfect because Amber had something to ask Jared.
"Mr. Farrell." Amber suddenly said.
Jared looked at her, "Yes?"
"Did you send me back to my room last night?" Amber looked back at him calmly.
Jared nodded. "Yes, I did."
Amber's eyes darkened. "Why didn't you wake me up?"
"I did." Jared replied, "But you slept too soundly to be woken up."
Amber's eyes twitched. "Did... did I?"
"Yes." Jared nodded.
Amber could tell that he was serious and wasn't lying. She felt a little embarrassed.
She couldn't even be woken up. How deeply could she sleep?
"Well." Amber concealed the embarrassment in her heart and said, "Thank you so much, Mr. Farrell,
but..."
"What!?" Jared took a sip of coffee.
Amber lowered her eyelids and then looked at him carefully. "Did you do anything to me!?"
"Did I do anything!?"Jared raised his eyebrows and looked into her eyes. "What do you mean!?"
"For example, did you pinch me, for example, pinch my neck?" Amber took a deep breath and asked.
She couldn't directly ask him, and she was embarrassed to ask directly whether he had kissed her, so
she used the word "pinch".
Besides, she deliberately raised her neck, hoping that he would definitely understand what she really
meant.
Jared rubbed his coffee cup again and replied flatly, "No."
"Really?" Amber frowned slightly, obviously not convinced.
Jared looked at her and asked, "Why should I pinch you?"
"..." Amber didn't know how to reply.
Why!
How could she know?
Just as Amber was frustrated, Jared drank his coffee and said, "Don't worry. I didn't do anything to you.
I put you in the room and left."
His expression was cold, without any trace of guilt.
Amber stared at him for a while, but she couldn't see anything wrong with him. She couldn't help
believing him.
Perhaps the mark on her neck was not left by him. But who else could it be?
Could it be that after he left last night, someone else entered her room?
Thinking of this, amber clenched her fists. Her chest rose and fell violently. She was angry.
She really didn't expect that she would be...
"Baby, I am ready." At this time, Cole's voice came, interrupting her thoughts.
Amber looked at Cole coming over and asked him in a deep voice, "Did you leave your room last
night?"
"Leave my room?" Cole blinked. "No. I slept till the morning. Why!?"
Amber looked at his blank face and was sure that he was not lying. She waved her hand and said,
"Nothing."
It was not Cole. There were only four men here. Apart from Jared and Cole, there were only Hayden
and Logan.
Logan was just impossible. He was only a teenager. Then it could only be Hayden.
While she was thinking, Hayden came. Turning the car key in his hand, he walked in casually. "The car
has been filled up. I also asked the chef to put a lot of food in the car. We can have meals on the
mountain at noon. You..."
Before he could finish his words, he felt a sharp gaze falling on him, making him unable to finish his
words.
"Amber, why are you looking at me like that? Is there anything on my face?" Hayden touched his face
suspiciously.
Amber narrowed her eyes. "Did you leave your room last night?"
"No, why did I leave my room?" Hayden's expression was indicating that it was weird that Amber
would've asked such a question.
Amber also told that he was not lying, and her heart sank.
If it was not Jared, nor Cole, nor Hayden, who could it be?
Apart from them, there were no others in the villa last night. Did she get it wrong? The mark on her
neck was not a love bite, but a mosquito bite?
For a moment, Amber was stunned, and then she left the dining room in a trance.
Cole and Hayden looked at each other.
"What's the matter?" Hayden asked.
Cole shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.
Then the next second, he suddenly thought of something. He squinted at the man who was still
drinking coffee at table and asked in a bad tone, "Did you bully my baby?"
Jared felt his words "my baby" were ear-piercing. He stood up with a cold face and left the dining room
without replying him.
"What's that attitude?" Cole pointed to the direction in which Jared left. He was very angry.
Hayden shrugged and said nothing.
Soon, all of them gathered outside the villa.
It was two kilometers away from the foot of the mountain. It was too slow to walk, so they still had to
drive.
All the seven of them drove to the foot of the mountain in two cars.
Amber with other four took one, while Jared and Makenna took the other.
No one would like to sit with them in the same car, not even Logan.
It could be imagined how much Jared and Makenna were unwelcomed here.
At the foot of the mountain, the seven of them got off and began to hike.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Makenna looked up at the mountain top with a hint of retreat on her face. "It's so high. Jared, are we
really going to climb up there? Can we take a cable car?"
Before Jared could answer, Cole said, "What? Do you want to go up the mountain by cable car?"
"Can't I?" Makenna looked at him innocently.
Cole sneered, "Yes, you can. But we have agreed that we can only take the cable car when we go
down the mountain. Otherwise, this is not hiking at all."
"But it's too high." Makenna bit her lip, her tone full of resistance.
"Then go back. Don't stay here and spoil the fun." Cole said impatiently.
"You..." Makenna was so angry that her face turned red. She then looked at Jared.
Jared asked, "Makenna, do you want to go back? If you want, I can drive you back."
"I..."
"Oh, Miss Gardner, won't you endure a little?" Before Makenna could answer, Hayden interrupted her.
Makenna had a bad feeling.
Amber and Stella looked at each other and smiled.
They knew that Hayden was going to make trouble.
"Mr. Cohen, what do you mean?" Makenna clenched her fists and looked at Hayden with a forced
smile.
The corners of Hayden's mouth curled into a playful smile. "Nothing. I just mean that Miss Gardner is
such a fussy baby."
"Hayden!" Jared pursed his lips and looked at him unhappily.
Hayden spread out his hands and said, "Jared, I'm not wrong. If your fiancée feels the mountain is too
high, she shouldn't have come here. Now she's backing out. How troublesome!"
Jared frowned.
Although he didn't like Hayden's attitude, he couldn't deny that Hayden was telling the truth.
