Chapter 53 Someone Will Steal Your Second-Hand Husband
Makenna was holding a man's arm. With a bright smile on her face, she said happily, "I've been in
coma for years, so I forgot about skiing completely! When we arrive at the place, can you be my
teacher and guide me?"
Jared glanced at her leg briefly before asking, "Is your leg alright now?"
"Yeah, it was a minor wound. Besides, I spent a long time at the hospital, so I'm all alive and kicking
now!" Makenna replied with a smile and grabbed Jared's arm tighter before saying, "Well, I want to
have fun with you because you rarely have time to accompany me!"
"Alright," Jared replied plainly.
After all, when Makenna had checked out of the hospital, she had wanted to go for a vacation.
Meanwhile, Jared was free too, so he decided to accompany her. However, he never expected her to
choose this ski resort. Well, Amber probably would've received his news by now, so she was probably
here to find Myles.
…
When they entered the skiing location, Amber followed Cole to the rental shop to rent a whole set of
skiing equipment. Then, she made her way to her changing room.
The ski suit and shoes were a bit bulky, but Amber quickly adapted to them and went down to find that
there were quite a few guests in each piste.
At a glance, she noticed that everyone was wearing ski outfits and seemed to look pretty much the
same...
Having searched for Myles for a while, she was tired, and her eyes were teary as well. "Urgh! This
resort is so big! Cole, did you find out where Mr. Tam is?"
When Amber didn't hear any reply, she turned back to find no one behind her.
"Hey! Babe, are you looking for me?" Suddenly, Cole came down from one of the slopes and asked.
Then, he shifted his position, and he skidded through the snow before landing perfectly in front of
Amber.
Amber was speechless when she saw this scene. "Hey! I asked you to look for him with me. Stop
playing!"
"It's so crowded here! There are people everywhere, so how the hell do we find him?" Cole raised his
skis and pulled Amber away before saying, "Let me teach you how to ski instead! I'm sure that you'll be
an amazing skier with my guidance!"
Amber looked around the resort. It was indeed crowded, and she felt like giving up right now.
After that, Cole dragged her to the beginner slopes and started saying, "These are slopes that are
suitable for beginners. The slopes aren't that steep, so beginners can train here. When you're used to
the skiing equipment and can move around freely, I'll bring you to some of the more advanced slopes to
play!"
"Heh! This is the beginner slopes, huh? Well, I guess this is why there are little people here. Everyone
here has someone accompanying them!" Amber understood what was going on and accidentally
glanced at the two people coming into the snowy path.
Hah! They were some familiar faces too!
On the other hand, Makenna had noticed Amber as well, and her gaze turned cold immediately. She
instantly smiled and greeted Amber while saying, "Hello, Ms. Reed. What a coincidence! I didn't expect
to see you and your boyfriend here!"
"We're not close with each other, Ms. Gardner. You don't have to force yourself to greet us," Cole said
nonchalantly in reply. "Well, maybe you should try to be whiny to please Mr. Farrell so that he will buy
the entire ski resort for you. Then, you can keep us out from here and we won't see each other!"
After hearing this, Makenna immediately pouted, "Did I offend you in any way, Mr. Lyon? How could
you say something so rude…"
"Hah! Did you forget what happened in the club?" Cole immediately cut her off and questioned. Then,
he said, "Oh, that's right. You only think about Mr. Farrell here because you're worried that someone
will steal your second-hand husband! Of course, you wouldn't remember about anything else! Ha-ha!"
Makenna had turned pale when she heard this, so she had a pitiful aura around her right now.
Cole had embarrassed her in the club previously, but he was even harsher today!
Urgh! Makenna hated him to the bone right now!
"Wait, wait, I wasn't scolding you, so can you stop showing this pitiful expression right now?" Cole put
on a scared expression before saying to Jared, "Hey, Mr. Farrell, your girlfriend is too weak! You should
take care of her well because we don't want anything to happen to her, right?"
On the other hand, Jared's face darkened. He did not say anything and instead brought Makenna away
to adjust their skiing equipment.
"Here, darling, let me help you with this," Cole immediately said in return. Then, he bent down and put
Amber's skis on her shoes as he continued nagging her, "See! I know how to pamper someone too!"
Amber couldn't help but laugh when she saw how he was acting.
"Hey! What are you laughing at?" Cole asked as he flipped his short hair before raising his brows. "Do
you think that I'm cool? Honey, maybe you should gain some weight? I'll definitely make you happier!"
"Urgh! Shut up! Don't make me slap you!" Amber immediately said furiously in reply and hit Cole
playfully. NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
After Amber had hit him a few times, Cole immediately stopped fooling around. Instead, he became
serious and started holding onto Amber carefully so that the latter could get used to the skis.
At the same time, Makenna was not far away from them. When she heard what both of them had said,
she blushed and said softly, "Even there are not many people here… how could they flirt with each
other this shamelessly in the public?"
After hearing this, Jared gazed in the direction of Amber as he frowned.
Initially, he thought that Amber had come to look for Myles Tam to talk about business. Never did he
expect that she came here to flirt around with Cole instead, and they were having a great time together.
"Nah, let's ignore them," Jared said softly as a cold aura started emanating around him.
Makenna couldn't help but shiver as she looked up at Jared. However, she saw an emotionless
expression on his face as if he did not feel anything at all, so she assumed she had been overthinking.
Amber was a beginner in skating, and she didn't know how to do anything. Thus, when Cole finished
teaching her, he let go and allowed her to get used to the skis slowly.
After taking two steps, Amber couldn't balance her body anymore, and she fell in the cold snow.
Cole couldn't help but laugh when he saw her. "Darling, you're so stupid! You're using these ski poles to
balance yourself, but you still fell down! Haha! Can't you find your balance?"
"Shut up!"
When Amber saw that Makenna had already gotten to the ski poles and was skiing around skillfully,
she felt even more upset. Thus, she immediately gritted her teeth and continued to learn how to ski.
After falling numerous times, she finally could control her ski poles and ski around the slopes freely.
Eventually, she felt that skiing was fun, so she ignored what other people were doing and focused on
skiing instead.
In the afternoon, Amber decided to go to the intermediate slopes.
It was more crowded and lively over here.
On the other hand, Cole was no longer teaching Amber how to ski. Instead, he had put on his skis as
he followed Amber down the slopes.
He probably was too idle to the point that he constantly looking for Amber to talk to and distract her.
"Honey, why don't you and Grandpa go to my house for dinner on New Year's Eve?" said Cole. "My
mom has been nagging me these few days because she wants to see you!"
After Amber had gotten married, she had always been with the Farrell family during the festive season.
However, this year, she had divorced Jared instead.
She didn't agree immediately, and she answered, "Well, let's see how it goes then."
She knew that Cole felt terrible for her, but she still had her grandpa in her family. Therefore, neither
she nor her grandpa wanted to ruin other people's celebrations.
On the other hand, Cole snorted and said, "Hey! You're my girlfriend, so can't you fulfil my wishes for
once?"
"I'm your fake girlfriend!" Amber retorted with an annoyed tone.
She didn't want to hear Cole spouting nonsense anymore, so she immediately put more force into her
ski poles. Then, she passed Cole and immediately slid down the slopes on her own.
When she had only slid a few meters, she heard a skidding sound coming from her skis.
Before she could react, her back hurt and the bashed snowball couldn't hold up on the ground as her
whole body lurched down the slope.
"Amber! No!" Cole seemed to have heard this as well, so his face darkened, and he immediately
rushed after her.
The slopes here were steeper, so Amber continued to descend. Right now, her ski poles could no
longer support her, and she was about to lose her balance as she swayed left and right on her skis.
Suddenly, a shadow skied next to her and approached her. Then, the figure reached out to grab and
pulled her into his waist before saying softly, "Hug me tight and don't let go."
Amber was in a state of panic and disorientated when she immediately clung to the man's waist after
vaguely hearing the voice coming from her ears.
After that, Jared descended the slopes slowly, and he didn't have any trouble skiing even though he
was carrying another person with him. Soon, they arrived at the bottom of the slope steadily.
"We're here, Ms. Reed," said Jared when he saw that Amber wasn't letting go, "What's wrong? Do you
want to hug me longer?"
Jared?
When Amber finally realized who she was hugging, she immediately let go and kept a distance
between them.
Then, she took off her helmet and said calmly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Farrell. I thought that my boyfriend was
the one who had saved me, so I hugged you a little too tightly."
