All of a sudden, Amber felt like she had lost her voice. It was as if someone had hit "pause" on her breathing.

Axel stared at Amber's face, flushed red from her nervousness. A feeling of disdain rose in his heart.

Was he going to die in Jameson's hands or hers? He hadn't forgotten that night when she had approached him with ulterior motives. He still remembered her poisonous hair stick that she had concealed in her hairdo.

He found it rather intriguing that she and her boss, Jameson, were playing good cop, bad cop. They were most likely in cahoots.

Tonight was probably part of their plan too. Was Jameson using her to set a honeytrap and having the princess save the hero? Did they think that he was dumb or that he wouldn't be able to resist women? Even if he were a pervert who was overwhelmed by his emotions, his inner devil would becan angel just by looking at her face.

Axel's superficial smile made Amber shudder. She pursed her lips and pressed her back against the cold shelf behind her.

"Oh? I'm really curious about what you said, Ms. Altman. Whose hands will | die in?" "Anyway, you've got to—" "Did you think that that evil viper who looks like a sissy would be able to get to me?" Axel almost said Jameson's nout loud. He raised his eyebrows in disdain. "Well, tell him to go ahead then. I'd like to see what he is made of." Amber's eyes widened, their glint betraying the tautness of her mind. She spoke in a shaky voice, "When... When did you figure it out?" "When you and | first met at the bar. | saw you get into that viper's car." Axel smirked. He pinched her chin and continued, "But don't be afraid. | won't do anything to you even though | know that you are on Jameson's side. The viper is the viper. You are you." His words caused a ripple in her despondent heart, warming it momentarily. However, what he said next caused her heart to plummet.

Axel smiled and leaned closer to her ear. He said in a sultry voice, "Moreover, look at your appearance. | can't bear to strike you." Amber felt a pain in her heart. She put her hands on his chest and pushed him away forcefully. "I know that | look like your sister. But Alyssa is Alyssa, and I'm myself." As Axel sensed her growing upset. His eyes dulled as a cold sneer crossed his lips.

With a face like Alyssa's, she took to the club like a duck to water. She was also highly favored by Jameson. She clearly was the one who benefitted the most from having this face.

He didn't even make a fuss about that. She, on the other hand, was sulky.

Wasn't she trying to have her cake and eat it too? Amber held back her surging emotions. She then said in a neutral tone, "Mr. Jameson will not spare anyone who trespasses The Millennium.

"I don't care what your purpose is. All | want is to tell you this—you will have another opportunity as long as you are alive. You can do whatever you want and strike him elsewhere, as long as it's not at The Millennium! "The moment he sets foot in here, you will not be able to escape even if you have superpowers!" Axel chuckled, "Is he that powerful? | really need to see it for myself, then." "Axel... Even if you're not thinking about yourself, how about Ms. Alyssa?" Amber was already panicking as tticked away. She grabbed onto Axel's collar. "I have no family. Even so, | know how it feels too! "If anything were to happen to you, wouldn't that make your family members sad? Wouldn't Ms. Alyssa be heartbroken for you? You keep trying to seek death. Is this fair to them? Didn't Mr. Winston fall ill and get hospitalized recently? Aren't you going to put him into consideration too?" Before she knew it, her face was so close to his that the tips of their noses were almost touching.

Her warm breath that smelled of sweet red wine lingered around Axel's chin. He noticed the gleam in her eyes from when she was being agitated. The perplexity he felt made him furrow his brows.

She was being so considerate of him. Was this also part of her plan? Was she just putting on this act to make her show even more convincing? "Josh is here, isn't he?" Axel's succinct question gave Amber a sudden realization. "You chere. because of what happened to Mr.

Jonah? Are you here to avenge him?" "You're like Sherlock, Ms. Altman. It's such a waste of your talent for you to be managing The Millennium."
