Can't Win Me Back Chapter 2008
At midnight, Amber arrived at a countryside villa in her sportscar. She had changed into a flaming red slit dress and styled her long, dark hair into a bun that was held together by a golden hairpin.Her style, classic and alluring, was to Jameson's taste. However, she was dressed to the nines for a nasty deal. She ran her cold fingertips through the hem of her dress and chuckled bitterly. What a waste of high-grade silk and top-notch tailoring! Her perfect attire and her dignity would end up being trampled by the beasts she would host.She received a video call from Wesley when she was about to leave her car. The video call was their preferred way of communication as it was impossible to be tapped."Wesley," she began with a forced smile."Ms. Altman, are you about to…" Wesley choked up emotionally at the sight of her beauty. As an employee at The Millennium, he knew what that would signify."What's the matter? Is everything alright?" Amber hurriedly shifted the topic of conver

The women gaped in shock at Amber's calmness in the face of the two devils. Just like them, Amber was petite and vulnerable. However, she appeared towering and invincible in their eyes due to her courage.The two men exchanged gazes. One man, examining her with a lascivious look, suggested, "You'll take two pills, then! Tell us how you feel after that!"Knowing Amber's importance to Jameson, the two guests dared not force her to take too many pills to avoid getting into trouble.Amber shook two blue pills onto her palms and stared squarely at them. Then, she took the pills without water. The other women teared up from concern and fear for Amber.Within a minute, her ears started ringing, and her heart rate increased. Her body went into an uncontrollable seizure."Ms. Altman! Ms. Altman!" The worried screams of the women were the last thing she heard before the dizziness overwhelmed her. She fell face-first onto the floor and passed out.…Amber opened her eyes and found herself

Amber stared in shock at Axel's confident expression. Her heart was racing, and she thought she had misheard. In her 25 years of life, she was nothing but an accessory to Jameson—a disposable tool in his business dealings.She had never owned anything to her name. To her surprise, Axel made the wild claim that he was her man. She replayed his words in her mind.The Tsulu man cussed loudly and attempted to snatch the gun from the ground, only to be shot twice—one in the left shoulder and the other in his right leg. He howled in pain and fell onto his knees.Seeing that, Amber snatched the man's gun and held it firmly before aiming it at him. The man finally faltered and begged for mercy. It seemed that men, when naked, were in their most vulnerable state. He pleaded, "Don't! Don't shoot me!""Spit it out! What are the drugs that Jameson Schmidt gave to you? Are they common drugs or narcotics?" Shedding off her usual coyness, Amber looked furious, like a beast that had been crouching

With steely gazes, they opened fire at the two men at the same time, gunning down both."Axel Whitaker, I'll say this one more time—go!" she yelled at him hoarsely, feeling worried for him.The look in his eyes darkened. Still pointing the gun in his right hand toward the door, he grabbed her waist with his free hand and pulled her into a tight hug.Sparks flew when their eyes met, as though they meant the most to each other.Two other subordinates of the Tsulu man rushed into the room at that time. They were promptly shot down by Axel and Amber, who fired at the same time without needing to look at the door."Axel Whitaker, what are you doing?" Raging, she felt her chest rise and fall while pressed against his, making his heart flutter. She snapped, "Are you trying to die with me at the same time?""See it in a more romantic light." He grinned with unbridled emotions in his eyes. "Till death do us part?"Her heart skipped a bit at his flirtatious remark. Blush colored her cheek

Axel clutched Amber's hands as they fled down the luxurious corridor with dangers lurking at every corner. Running with a woman in tow did not affect his efficacy at all. He gunned down each man who ran after them with precision.A man suddenly jumped them from the left before Axel had the time to turn around. Amber, in his defense, aimed her hairpin at the man's throat and slit it. Blood splattered around, tainting her dress.Axel stared squarely at her, his heart hammering against his ribs. The affection in his gaze intensified."Phew. That was close." She wiped away the sweat on her cheek, only to paint it with blood. She looked exceptionally gorgeous despite the mess.The killers skulked and scrambled across the villa, hunting relentlessly for Axel and Amber. Having no way of escaping, Amber hid in a warehouse filled with miscellaneous items that she stumbled upon. They locked the door behind them and fortified it with some racks."Axel, I'm afraid I can't leave with you." Amb

Amber felt like she was struck by lightning. Each breath she took weighed heavily on her chest as she gazed out the window. The flames outside reflected in her eyes.She knew it was only a matter of time before Jameson disposed of her. After all, he had already harbored suspicion toward her. Yet, she refused to let that beast use her against Axel, the man she loved."Amber, will you be scared if I invite you to jump down with me from here?" Axel grabbed her firmly on the waist with a smile.Staring into his eyes with a look of determination, she answered, "I'm not scared.""Tsk. Can't you make me feel like a man, just once?" He playfully glared at her and pinched her on the waist. "You could at least pretend to huddle in my arms and tremble like the typical damsel in distress.""I'm scared, to be honest." She gazed at him longingly. "But I'm fearless when I'm with you."Axel's heart of steel melted from her sweet words. Giving her another kiss, he urged, "Let's go!"Next, he wra

In the deep of the night, Alyssa was soundly asleep by Jasper's side while he pored through the financial reports and project proposals.All of a sudden, he heard a knock on the door, followed by Rosie's worried voice. "Mr. Beckett, Madam Alyssa, are you asleep?"Jasper tiptoed to answer the door to avoid waking up Alyssa. "Mrs. Rosie, it's late. Why aren't you sleeping yet?""Mr. Beckett, Mr. Axel is here!""Mr. Axel? Lyse's brother?" He was taken aback."Yes! He looks quite upset. He's in the living room. Please check on him!" Mrs. Rosie reported.At that time, Alyssa rubbed her eyes groggily and shuffled up to Jasper in her fuzzy slippers. "Jasper, did you just say that Axel was here?""Sorry for waking you up." He gently held her by the waist with a tender look.She leaned against him, their bodies separated only through a layer of silk fabric. "I'm fine, but I'm worried about Axel. He won't show up late at night for no good reason. Jasper, let's meet with him now."…Jas
Can't Win Me Back Chapter 2015
Alyssa and Jasper found themselves speechless at Axel's newfound feelings. They had always perceived Axel as a carefree player who never knew how to love, a man who cherished his freedom more than anything else.The truth came as a shock to the couple, especially to Alyssa, who knew Axel better than anyone else.When she first requested Axel to get closer to Amber, he grinned evilly and promised to carry out the mission flawlessly. He might lose an organ in the process, but never his heart.He had completed his mission. Though Alyssa had no idea if he had sacrificed his organs at any point, one thing was for sure—he gave his heart to Amber."Are you being serious, Axel?" she asked him for confirmation, gaping at him.Axel returned her gaze with seriousness. "Lyse, I never understood your obsession with Jasper, but I think I know now."He did not address her question, but his reply was more touching than a mere confirmation.Jasper, standing behind them, closed his eyes bitterly.
