"You are going to kick her out, right? You promise?"

Hearing that hopeful question, Adam cracked a smile. Nodding, he began to stroke his wife's head. "Yes. You have my words. But, I don't think it's necessary. Look! She has gone."

Amber quickly looked forward. There was no woman or suitcase at the door. However, instead of being happy, she ran to the cottage. As soon as she looked inside, rage dimmed her face again. Ruby was sitting on the couch, flipping through an album.

“How dare you enter without permission?”

With a straight face, the uninvited guest turned to the door. Before she could respond, Amber had already snatched the album from her hands.

“You even dare to touch our wedding photos?” After one breath, Amber walked over to the man who had just arrived at the door. “Look, Adam! You said she knew manners. But, she broke into our house and even took our special album.”

"I am just looking around. Is it wrong?"

Not expecting to get resistance from Ruby, Amber's breath be

    Adam was pensive looking at Amber’s back on the bed. Sadness radiated clearly from those trembling shoulders. Every time his wife wiped her face, guilt pierced his heart. When the feeling was no longer contained, he climbed to the bed and hugged her from behind. "Since when did my wife turn into such a crybaby?" he teased before planting a kiss on her shoulder. "Why are you here? Go away! Go take care of your ex! She is more important than me," Amber nudged the arm that wrapped her body. Instead of moving back, Adam put his chin on her shoulder. "You're much more important, Precious. That's why I'm here with you." "But you broke your promise. You let that evil witch thwart our honeymoon!" Amber looked at her husband out of the corner of her eye. "Didn't you cancel it yourself?" Adam whispered without thinking. "Yeah, but it's because of that naive monster! She ruined my mood," Amber said before turning her head and blowing her nose. Her annoyance grew since her husband defended

    Amber's steps turned slow as her eyes caught Ruby in the kitchen. The red-haired woman was busy moving the utensils to the sink. Without touching the strawberry cake and two lunchboxes on the table, she began to wipe vigorously. "What are you doing?" Amber asked displeased. Hurriedly, she came closer to check. "Hi!" Ruby replied, making her flinch. Since when did the Red Witch turn friendly? "Are you done with your business? I'm confused what to do. Instead of wasting time, I make a lasagna. Consider it as my gratitude!" With a suspicious look, Amber followed the pointed index finger. Turned out, Adam's new oven was on. "You can make lasagna?" she sighed spontaneously. "Isn't that easy? All we have to do is baking the pasta stuffed with meat, sauce, spices and cheese.” Amber's mouth shut tightly. She did not expect that her enemy was good at cooking. Not wanting to show her insecurity, she put her hands on the waist and raised her chin. “Why don't you ask permission before using

    "Wait a minute!" Amber stopped Adam who was about to open the door. A second later, her index finger pointed at the sweater that was rolled up on his chest. "Fix your clothes first! I don't want that Red Witch to look at those muscles." Sighing in disbelief, Adam obeyed his wife's orders. Once the sweater fit perfectly on his body, he spread his arms. "Is it okay?" In a swift move, Amber hooked her hand on his arm. "Yes." Holding back a smile, Adam opened the door. As it turned out, Ruby was standing in front of them. There was a cell phone in her hand. "Sorry to bother you. But, may I ask for the wi-fi password?” "Who do you want to contact? Don't you have friends? You even have to stay at your ex's house because no one wants to share a place with you," Amber retorted. Seeing that Adam didn't respond, Ruby smiled wryly. “There are some friends that I rarely contact. I think, now is the time to try my luck.” "Good! I hope they are all competing to offer you a place to live,” Amb

    "Get out!" Ruby was rattled by Adam’s voice. The man never shouted that loudly, right in front of her face. "You snapped at me?" she muttered in confusion. A few beads of sweat appeared on her forehead. "I've had enough patience with you. But you're still trying to ruin my relationship. Once again you incite my wife, I will not hesitate to kick you out of this cottage!” With a quick motion, Adam opened the door wider. His forefinger was pointed outwards. "Leave us! Right now!" Ruby did not budge, staring at her ex. Her face was pale, while his eyes were bloodshot. She still couldn't believe that the man who had always been gentle to her could be so rude. "Now!" Adam snarled louder. While wiping away the tears that escaped the eyes, Ruby ran out of the room. She did not know if her plan worked or not. She no longer cared about Amber's response. It hurt too much to know that her ex had really changed. Meanwhile, Adam rushed to close the door. His lungs were filled with worry. Whi

    "Adam?" Ruby sighed as if surprised. Without covering any part of her body, she walked closer. "Sorry. I didn't mean to startle you. I wanted to change, but apparently, my underwear was tucked away somewhere.” “Why don't you look for it before undressing? You tease me on purpose, hmm?” Adam whispered emphatically. His eyes bulged and his hands were clenched into fists. He was afraid if he lost control of seeing the beauty. "No,” Ruby grabbed Adam's hand and put on a pitiful look, "I really didn't mean it. It's winter. How can I linger undressing?” Averting his eyes, Adam jerked his hand away from his ex. He was really uncomfortable with Ruby's behavior. “Whatever your plans, you won't be able to get rid of Amber's position. I only see her and you know what? Your body is nothing compared to my wife." A second later, the man rushed to the kitchen. It could be a disaster if Amber suddenly came out of the bedroom and found them in such condition. He didn't want to exchange his wife f

  • Don't Eat Me, Mister Cold   S2| 10. The Lingering Feelings

    Seeing Adam putting the firewood into the bag, Ruby widened a smile. She never expected that her ex could change so drastically. Adam was now much stockier than Ed, much more mature, and much more seductive. The last point made Ruby not hesitate to approach and touch his arm. "Do you need help?" Adam spontaneously turned around and stared. He couldn't believe that his ex dared to follow him. "What are you doing here?" he whispered as if Amber was near them. “I feel useless if I sit still. So, wouldn't it be better if I helped you?" Casually, Ruby walked towards the pile of wood. But before she could touch it, Adam had already jerked her back. “Quickly get out of here! I don't need your help. Amber could misunderstand seeing you here with me, even if your intention were to help.” Instead of responding, Ruby looked at the hand that was holding her arm. Stifling a smile, she returned Adam's gaze. "Why are you so afraid of your wife? Is the trust between you that fragile?” “Stop yo

    "This is so unfair," Ruby sighed before looking down and gripping her anger tightly. “I have always loved sincerely. But, why do you never respect me?” “Don't twist the facts, Mad Witch. You don't really love my husband. All you want is security,” Amber said with a small laugh. Raising her head, Ruby shouted. “Shut up! You don't know anything about us!" "You're the one who doesn't understand the truth. You said that I was Adam's runaway. In fact, you're the one who ran to him to hide from reality." Ruby's hand suddenly flew to Amber's cheek. But, before her palm landed, Adam had already brushed it off. Apparently, he had been on alert from the start. “How dare you hurt my wife? You've crossed the line, Ruby. Pack all your things right now! I can't let you stay here anymore." "But Adam—" "Now!" The man interrupted in a booming voice. Even the pine trees seemed to tremble at his anger. Meanwhile, Ruby's heart was breaking into pieces. She began to have difficulty breathing with

    Amber examined her own body with a confused look. Instead of worrying, she blinked at Adam. “Isn't this normal? People often have a fever in welcoming spring.” "It's still winter and the temperature hasn't gone up. You must be exhausted because of Ruby. Come on, you should rest now.” Adam helped his wife to her feet and guided her to the room. “I just have a fever, Jewel. Why are you treating me like a 90-year-old grandma?” “Don't protest! Just rest in the bed. I'll bring you hot milk and apples. You need to recharge immediately." Getting that much attention, Amber smiled. While hugging her husband, she rested her head on his shoulder. "You don't have to bring that. Just be with me! I'll be fine right away." "No, you need hot milk and apples. I will accompany you after preparing it.” As soon as the door closed, Ruby's eyes slowly opened. Turning towards the bedroom, she snorted in annoyance. “I almost died. But, why is she getting more attention?” When the door opened again, Ru

    Amber quietly opened the workroom door. Seeing her husband was daydreaming, she lifted the corner of her lips. "What are you doing, Jewel?" Adam spontaneously turned to the direction of the voice. Knowing the presence of his wife, his smile grew wider. "Hey .... Is Ashley sleeping?" "Yes," Amber answered while approaching. Then, casually, she sat on her husband's lap. "Why are you still here? Is your work not done yet?" As Adam rubbed the back of his neck, Amber began to investigate the table. Turned out, the computer had been off. The files were also neatly organized in the folders. What’s left there was only a cell phone displaying an image. "You really like that picture, hmm?" Amber concluded while glancing sweetly. Spotted by those warm eyes, Adam let out a smile. After kissing Amber’s shoulder, he nodded. "It's all thanks to you. I wouldn't have been able to fix my relationship with Mother if you didn't follow us." "I didn't do anything. When I got there, you guys have been

    "I know you must have doubted what I said," Mrs. Smith cried, breaking the silence. "Is there something I have to do to prove my point? Your mother really wants to change, Adam." Still with furrowed brows, the man snorted. "Why only now? Is it because Ed abandoned you?" Mrs. Smith shook her head briskly. "No, don't get me wrong. The tension between us has nothing to do with Ed. I was too stupid to use him to take all yours." "Non sense ...." "Do you know that Ed scolded me? He's tired of being dragged down by my selfishness. Your brother said he didn't want to help me bully you anymore." Before Adam could object, Mrs. Smith continued. "Since then, I've started to realize. But, I still convince myself that you don't deserve to be happy. Your mother is very stupid, hmm?" Adam suddenly fell silent. From under the frown, he looked intently at his mother. “Why should I believe?” "I haven't even used a penny of your money, Adam. I feel guilty every time I see your transfer papers. Sh

    After his mother slammed the door, Adam rubbed Amber's arm. Noticing his wife's disheveled look, he whispered, "Are you all right?" The woman nodded. "Yeah, you?" Adam took a deep breath. After raising an eyebrow, he curled up his lips. "Yeah. I'm glad nothing happened. I was afraid my mother would do something reckless. Sorry for letting her carry Ashley." "It's okay, Jewel. I think Ashley is happy to have met her grandmother," Amber said while stroking her daughter's head. The little baby had closed her eyes again. She seemed so peaceful. "Look, she's smiling again." "She must want to cheer you up," Adam whispered before landing a soft kiss on Ashley's forehead. "Not only me, but you too. We are lucky to have such a kind baby. This must be your good karma. You remain patient with your mother, even though she has been hurt you many times." Disagreeing, Adam shook his head. "Your sweet karma too, Precious. You are much more filial to your parents. Anyway, they are coming here, r

    As the silence was hanging in the air, people in that room were exchanging glances. No one dared to speak until Ruby broke the silence. "May I carry her?" "Of course," Amber answered, patting Adam's arm. Understanding the code given, Adam took Ashley out of her tiny bed. As soon as the adorable baby arrived in Ruby's arms, all eyes started to tear up. "Hey, look at this tiny face! Why are you so cute, Ashley?" Ruby whispered in a trembling voice. The emotion almost pushed the tears out of bounds. "This pretty nose is very similar to Amber's, while these thin lips ... a hundred percent copy of her father." As that woman studied every detail of the baby, Amber asked lightly, "Would you like to take a picture with Ashley?" In an instant, Ruby's wistful eyes were tinged with shock. "Is it okay? Didn't you two agree not to publish your daughter's face?" "Take the photo as a keepsake. You can print it and store it in your wallet or diary," Amber said, glancing at Nick. Realizing the

    “Hurry up! I can’t stand it anymore!" Amber shouted while squeezing her husband's clothes. Panic, Adam started to circle around the yard. Maybe he dropped the key somewhere. Meanwhile, Nick was busy groping his own body. When his hand pressed against his trouser pocket, his eyes widened perfectly. "Shall we just take my car?" the fat man suggested while showing his car keys. Still out of breath, Amber turned to the vehicle parked beside Adam's car. "You think I weigh up to a ton? People must be laughing when they see you take me in that truck!" she grumbled in a shrill voice. Nick spontaneously grimaced at it. "Sorry, Madam. It's not a truck, but a mini box van for dry cargo. I use it to deliver jewelry." "You have nothing to be ashamed of, Precious," Adam continued with a reassuring nod. "The car is used to carrying valuables." Suddenly, Amber closed her eyes again. The pain that twisted in her stomach grew crazier. "Okay! Quickly tak

    "Hello, Mrs. Smith. How are you feeling?" Nick said when welcoming Amber to his house. He secretly felt proud to see his whistle hanging around the woman's neck. "Very well. We’re sorry to bother you, Nick. It's actually one week earlier than the doctor predicted. But Adam keeps insisting that we should stay at your house." Seeing Amber's guilty expression, Nick chuckled. "It’s not a problem at all. What the boss thinks is true. It's best if we are on guard. The hospital is too far from your cottage." "You're a wise man, Nick," Adam said while carrying three large bags he'd pulled from the trunk. “Seems like, I’ve put my trust in the right person.” Once again, the fat man chuckled. Taking one of the bags from Adam's hand, he waved. "Come on! Let me show you your room! I’ve asked Tina to clean it this morning." As Nick led the way, Amber leaned toward her husband. "Who's Tina?" "I don't know. Maybe, his new girlfriend," Adam replied wit

    "I’m sincere," Amber nodded swiftly. "It's just I regret their attitude that never changes. I can’t tell how long they will stand to make you suffer." Smiling a little, Adam stroked her cheek. Now that he had known the reason, his love to her grew larger. "Don't worry! I'm sure they won't ask for anything more after this. I've got nothing for them to grab." "What about our house? Should we apply for a transfer of assets? I think it would be safer if the certificate was registered in my name." Stifling a laugh, Adam nodded. He knew that half of Amber's heart was actually not willing to see him sacrifice so much. "That's why, I insisted on handing over the company to you. But you kept refusing." "I don't want people to think of you as a slave to my love, Jewel. It’s not normal for a man giving all his wealth to his wife? He’ll be called a stupid man. I don't want you to be branded like that." Thinking that Amber was so adorable, Adam kissed the tip of her nose. "I have no problem

    "Now it's my turn to give you a gift," Ruby said awkwardly. "A gift? When did you prepare it? You spent most of the time in bed," Amber asked wide-eyed. "Online shopping is not something difficult," Ruby said before smiling faintly. Without further ado, she handed her the box. "Take this as an apology as well as my thanks. You may open it now." After giving Adam her whistle, the pregnant woman lifted the lid of the box. As soon as she found a neatly folded red knitted cloth, she let out a faint sigh. "Is this a form of protest because we threw away the white sweater you gave Adam?" "Otherwise, I want to bury bad memories about it. I hope a new sweater could remind you of the new me." "Well then, from this moment on, Adam and I will make lots of sweet memories with this sweater," Amber said as she took out the gift from the box. However, a second later, the curve of her lips froze. Turned out, there was another sweater in the box. "You

    "Hey," Amber said, reluctant to call her brother-in-law’s name, "Ruby wants to talk to you." In an instant, Ed's eyes widened. Without further ado, he entered through the gap between Amber and the door. "Has Ruby changed her mind?" Adam inquired as he rose from his seat. After closing the door, he guided his wife to sit down carefully. "No." Confused, the man's eyebrows arched perfectly. "So?" "Ruby wants to end their relationship as soon as possible. That way, she can stay at Mr. Berg's residence without any worries," Amber explained before raising an eyebrow. "How about you? Did something happen while I was inside?" Lifting the corners of his lips, Adam kissed his wife's hand. "Believe it or not, I feel nothing. Yes, I'm annoyed to see Ed. But knowing he's got what he deserves, I don't feel relieved either, like nothing's changed." "Because no matter what happens to them, our lives will still be the same?" "Yes." As h
