Axel couldn’t have been referring to anyone else except for Amber Altman.


    What made Jameson more worried was that Axel had learned that there was a woman who bore a


    striking resemnce to Alyssa, and that she was by his side!


    “Did Axel spot me the night Amber went to the bar?” Jameson asked with a glint in his eyes.


    Carl replied, “You said that the bar wasn’t up to your standards, so you didn’t search for Ms. Altman


    there. He couldn’t have seen you since you never left the car.”


    An idea struck him. “Could your car have given you away? They might have traced your license te


    back to Schmidt Group. If he found out about it, he might be trying to provoke and trick you into


    revealing the truth.”


    “Let’s go.” Jameson seethed and turned around.


    “Where are we going?”


    “The Millenium.”


    Jasper and Axel reached the door to Alyssa’s room. Jasper said to him with sincerity, “Thanks for that.”


    “You’re wee. It’s my reply to you calling me your ex-brother-in-w. Plus, I didn’t do it just for you. I


    was merely using you as a tool to piss Jameson off,” Axel replied. He relished the memory of


    Jameson’s sullen expression.


    “I don’t mind that.” Jasper grinned.


    Axel grumbled, “I can’t F***ing stand that dude and his arrogant attitude. How dare he bring up my dad


    to threaten the guards? Who does he take himself for? I despise sly backstabbers like him.


    “He looks like a decent man, but his actions contradict his appearance. No wonder his family looks


    down on him.”


    Then, Axel gave Jasper a teasing look. “You have to thank him for making you look good. Got it?”


    Jasper was rendered speechless. Had Axel just told him to thank Jameson?


    “Mr. Axel.” A feeble voice came from behind them. They turned to see Sean.


    “Sean?”


    With difficulty, Sean approached them. He had one arm in a cast, and the other was holding a walking


    stick. He pursed his l*ps before thanking Jasper. “Thank you, Mr. Beckett.”


    “It wasn’t a big deal. I have to thank you for protecting Alyssa,” Jasper replied tly, though his


    emotions betrayed him.

    “You don’t have to thank me. Protecting Ms. Alyssa is my life’s mission,” Sean replied, his eyes


    sparkling with enthusiasm. He would make the same choice again if given the chance.


    Having survived the ordeal, Sean seemed to have softened toward Jasper, who had saved Alyssa’s


    life.


    “Sean, do you want an amputation? Why the F*** did you get out of bed?” Axel cursed worriedly.


    “Do you know you almost lost your arm? Jonah hired the best experts in the country to perform a two-


    day surgery to save your arm! Show sonic uppictiv


    “No, Mr. Axel, I-”


    “If you keep moving around, I’ll call your parents and make them visit you every day!” threatened Axel.


    It wasn’t a joke. Axel always followed through with his threats.
