Axel began, "I came to see you because I was worried something might happen to you."


    "What could possibly happen to me? I''ll be fine, so don''t do this again." Amber didn''t dare look up to


    meet Axel''s eyes. She was trembling slightly as goosebumps erupted on her skin. "Please seek out


    trouble elsewhere from now on, Mr. Whitaker.


    "I hope I never see you at The Millenium again. Or should I say... I hope to never see you again after


    tonight."


    Axel''s eyes darkened. "You can''t really stop me."


    Amber gnawed on her lip. She knew Axel was intelligent enough to understand her implied meaning.


    Why was he still so stubborn then?


    These Taylors were too troublesome!


    Axel slowly observed Amber''s expression with unreadable eyes. Though Amber was known to be


    deadly and beautiful, she was still behaving like a delicate, pitiful little bunny before him. Even though


    she looked very simr to Alyssa, Axel still saw a different, startling beauty from her every time they


    met.


    No wonder Jameson would spend so much time cultivating Amber. She really was quite gorgeous to


    the extent that no man would be able to hold their own before her.


    It was a shame that Amber''s skills failed when it came to Axel. After all, Axel basically flirted and


    manipted for a living.


    "Josh was only arrested so sessfully tonight because of the clues you gave us."


    Axelposed himself again and said nonchntly, "I wonder if Jameson might soon trace this back


    to you once his brother falls and wipes you out of the picture.


    "After all, Jameson did originally n to use this as leverage against Josh. Now his n has gone bust.


    Hahaha! He must be so fucking pissed right now, huh?"


    Amber stayed silent. The intimate atmosphere had been ruined by Axel''s humor.


    "Mr. Jameson still has use for me. He won''t try and do anything too serious to me unless he''s found


    credible evidence." Amber then smiled, heart aching deeply.


    "Even if he did have evidence, he wouldn''t do anything to me either. I''m sure anyone would have a


    fondness for their pet after keeping it around for so long, what more another human being? Not to


    mention someone who resembles Ms. Alyssa Taylor.


    "So don''t worry needlessly for me. What happenedst time will never happen again. Let''s never see


    one another anymore either. You won''t gain anything from me. Our cooperationes to an end here.


    Amber sounded like she was trying to break up with Axel. She was trying so hard to convince Axel to


    give up. Yet Axel''s chest tensed ufortably when she said that their coboration was toe to


    an end there.

    It wasn''t just because Axel still remembered the task Alyssa entrusted him. Rather, he felt slightly


    upset.


    Amber might have been the one who initiated this game, but Axel had to be the one to call it quits!


    Amber felt a weight on her shoulders before Axel turned her around, forcing their eyes to meet.


    Axel''s arms caged her in against the sink as he gazed deeply at her, making her heart waver so terribly.


    He sped Amber''s chin in a tender gesture, their breaths mingling in the air.


    Amber''s eyes began growing hazy while Axel''s grew heavy with desire.


    "If you had a chance to permanently be free of Jameson Schmidt''s control and turn over a new leaf,


    would you?" Axel asked silently.


    Amber''s heart pounded in her chest. Several secondster, she smiled and hooked a finger in Axel''s


    cor. "No. If I have to rot in hell, I''d rather do it while staying by Jameson''s side."
