"Did she give her heart to me, now?" Jameson stared icily at Carl with an arched brow. "Stop bluffing me. She has no right to do that.


    "She doesn''t even deserve to fall for Axel Whitaker. That dude is Lyse''s brother and a Taylor. She should know her ce.


    "I''m just curious if Amber would kill Axel for me. Failing to do so, I can''t guarantee that I''d treat her as well as before."


    Carl was filled with shock when he realized that Jameson had only spared Amber to use her to kill Axel. Jameson was the type of man who would not change his mind after he harbored suspicions about someone.


    Carl''s phone started vibrating from an iing call. He answered the call, and his expression promptly fell.


    Jameson asked, "What''s wrong?"


    "Mr. Schmidt, I just got the news that Mr. Victor had sent the attorneys and his secretary to the detention center. They had a half-hour secret meeting with Josh!" Carl started feeling nervous. "Could Josh have transferred his stocks to—"


    "Get the car ready! We''re off to Sna City Private Hospital!" Jameson stormed out of his office with a chilling look in his eyes.


    At the same time, Alyssa stood in front of the mirror in the bedroom of Heightsview Vi. She was donned in a chic ck suit, her long hair tumbling over her shoulders and her lips a hue of ming red. She carried herself with an authoritative air, a look of masculine determination etched on her face.


    Today was the day she officially presented herself as the KS Group president at the board of directors’ meeting. It also heralded a new era that came with new battles.


    "My dear Ms. Alyssa, how are you feeling? Nervous?" Jasper wrapped his arms around her waist, his lips brushing asionally against her nape.Content provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Feeling ticklish, she wiggled in his arms, breaking the image of a strong-willed businesswoman. She confessed, "How could I not be? I''ll face a room of snakes. I wonder how they''re going to teach me a lesson.”


    "You have nothing to be afraid of with me around." He sniffed her neck and kissed her smooth skin. Then, he rasped, "If they bully you today, do tell me about it when you''re home today. I''ll back you up."


    "Back me up? I''d count my blessings if you didn''t run me to the ground,” she purred shyly.


    Last night, Jasper, driven mad by his desire, repeatedly took her in various sexual positions that they had never tried before. Despite the embarrassment, she found herself indulging in their intimacy. That morning, he had to carry her to the bathroom because she was too sore to move. In the bathroom, he couldn''t stop himself from making love to her again.


    Her casual remark had aroused him again. He carried a look of lust in his eyes as his hand traveled up her body, teasing her. Then, he unfastened two buttons on her shirt.


    "N-Not now.” She pressed her hand against his as she trembled.


    She could sense his raging boner pressing against her body.


    "We still have a lot of time before the meeting.” Nibbling at her reddened ears, he persuaded her in a low voice, "I''ll be gentle. I promise not to tire you out. Lyse, I want to give you some good loving. Is that okay?"
