Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue
Chapter 1769

There was a silent rule in The Millenium, which was that no one else could bring Amber out of theplace besides Jameson himself. Yet Axel was breaking that rule right now!

He was the only man who was bold enough to do so anyway.

Amber was terrified at first. But she then saw how determined and calm Axel was. Thus, all her worrydisappeared, leaving her to close her eyes and lean against his chest.

Amber just wanted to leave with Axel right now, no matter where she went.

"Mr. J-Jameson, Axel Whitaker has taken Ms. Altman away!" Carl exclaimed, panicked.

Though Carl knew that Jameson had only ever treated Amber as a lowly substitute for Alyssa Taylorfor all the years and even humiliated Amber again and again, no one was allowed to take Amberaway regardless.

Axel was basically provoking Jameson beyond his limit!

"Go after them with the men!" Jameson ordered, panting angrily. "Bring Amber back no matter whatit takes!"

Axel's Aston Martin sped through the highway while his hair blew in the wind through the open carwindow. He drove languidly with only one hand on the wheel.

Yet, Amber was feeling incredibly nauseous from the speed Axel was driving.

The instant they arrived at their hotel room, Amber ran to the bathroom and threw up heavily.

Axel chuckled, watching her with his arms around his chest. "I don't think you'd be able to play VRgames if this is all you can take, Ms. Altman. And here I thought I'd gained a new gaming buddy.”"Your hobbies... are quite varied, Mr. Whitaker,” Amber croaked out. She went to the sink andwashed her mouth out before cleaning her face. She wasn't feeling that sick anymore.

Axel's eyes narrowed slightly as he gazed at Amber's delicate figure which shifted with her everymove.

"Jameson's men were on our tail the instant I took you away from The Millenium. I couldn't havegotten away from them if I hadn't driven that fast.”

"Why did you come to The Millenium out of the blue?" Amber asked.

She heaved a sigh and turned around to look at Axel. "I know you're a very skilled superspy, butthere are always risks. Don't underestimate Jameson. If it's your death he wants, he will try andachieve it every chance he gets.”

"I know that. Why else would he have sent you to me? To show you off?" Axel cocked an eyebrowbefore teasing, "Based on my observation though, you don't have much to show off besides yourbeauty and figure, no?"

Amber's heart strung up tightly as she quickly looked down.

So Axel had known why Jameson had sent her to him from the start.

"Since you know the truth, why did you still go back to The Millenium?" Amber asked.

"I wanted to see how you were doing,” Axel said in that attractive voice of his.

"How else could I be doing? Nothing changes. I still put on an act every single day." Amber's wordswere bitter as she degraded herself. It was as if she was trying to stop herself from having anyunruly thoughts toward Axel. "I'm nothing more than a well-dressed hooker."

Silence rang out from behind her.

Several seconds later, Amber heard footsteps nearing her, echoing in her heart.

"I don't care about what you said about yourself, you know." Axel leaned into her ear and saidgently, "I'm just worried Jameson will make things difficult for you."
