A red sports car came to a stop in front of a club in the middle of the night. Amber stepped out of it
dressed in a skin-tight black dress, showing off her curves. Her bejeweled heels glinted in the light,
giving her a striking appearance overall.
"He’s still inside, Ms. Altman. I’ve been keeping watch all this while." A lackey walked over to Amber
from a dark corner.
Amber tied her hair into a bun before decorating it with a silver hair stick studded with a ruby. Her
beauty left the lackeys around her in awe.
"Wait outside and prepare to cover me."
Dim lights flashed in the club.
Amber gritted her teeth together as she moved amidst the people who were enjoying their night. Her
eyes were set on Axel who sat at the edge of the bar.
The closer she got to him, the harder her heart pounded. The pandemonium around her seemed to
disappear as if she was in a dream.

would be used to end Axel’s life.
Amber soon came to a stop behind Axel.
Right when she was about to place a hand on his shoulder, pain suddenly rang out from her wrist. Her
world spun around violently.
Amber let out a cry. Her back then slammed against a table, the pain knocking the wind out of her.
What kind of human reacted like this? His reaction was inhuman!
Axel’s right hand wrapped around Amber's wrist while his left pinned her neck down. His fingers were
slowly tightening their grip.
Axel had had his share of enemy assassins targeting him in his years as a spy overseas. His body had
long grown highly alert and could detect the slightest shift in his surroundings.
Amber was pinned beneath Axel right now, her face flushed as her breath was choked out of her. Tears
filled her eyes.
"It's... You?" Axel exclaimed in surprise and instantly loosened his grip.
Amber panted heavily, tears naturally falling down her cheeks.
Some onlookers thought the two were a married couple who got into a fight but didn't dare interfere.
"Fuck me. Look at that shithead! He's abusing his wife in public just like that!"
"It's better to keep our noses out of it. Sometimes, people willingly accept the punches they get, and
you can't do anything about it. It's all good now..."
Axel's expression darkened upon hearing the chatter around them.
"Ugh... You hurt me..." Amber coughed, trying to straighten up. The pain in her back stopped her,
however.
"Sorry, it's a work habit." Axel wrapped an arm around Amber's waist and lifted her.
Amber naturally leaned into his embrace, arms wrapping around his waist. Their breaths mingled.
But Axel only shot her a cold look. "No other woman deserves to wrap their arms around me save for
my sister, Ms. Altman. Don't you think you're being too bold?"

Amber smiled a smile she had practiced countless times in front of the mirror. "Your sister must be
really beautiful."
Axel's heart trembled lightly when he observed Amber's face.
It was too similar to Alyssa's.
If Amber changed into a different set of clothing and had a haircut, Axel himself might mistake her for
Alyssa, not to mention Jasper himself!
Axel's eyes glinted coldly. He smirked and grabbed Amber's chin, lifting her face. "In terms of beauty,
you're pretty on par with my sister."
Amber's heart felt like a deer in headlights upon seeing Axel's smile. Her voice wavered, "But there
would still be a winner, right?"
Axel replied without hesitation, "My sister is the winner."
Amber was left speechless. Was Axel just too blunt, or did he have some kind of obsession with his
sister?
Still, Amber found herself unable to hate how direct and honest Axel was
"What are you doing here?"
