That's so good.

Jared did not agree to collaborate with Talon.

God knows how afraid she was that Jared would agree.

After all, normally one would not discard two treaty ports in the capital in such an easy way.

Jared did not disappoint her at last.

"Fine. What a noble man you are, Mr. Farrell," Talon smiled and clapped his hands sarcastically, "Mr. Farrell, aren't you afraid that I'll catch you too? Further negotiation is out of the question now. I won't free Amber Reed and you won't let me go. What if I kill you together with my little boy and my little girl all together?"

These words made Amber's face get pale instantly. She shook her head towards Jared again, and shouted something to him.

No, I want you to go right now!

That's what she wanted to say to him.

Much as she wanted Jared to save her, she could still remember Talon's words that Jared came alone and thus he could not save her.

So, now, she hoped Jared to leave here right now rather than save her.

Though she didn't love Jared anymore, she didn't want Jared to die for her.

Then she wouldn't forgive herself even if she ended up dead.

Jared stared at Amber. He knew what she wanted to say, so he calmed down and said in a cold voice again, "You don't dare to kill me!"

He said assuredly, "Nor do you dare to catch me."

Those words made Talon's face changed suddenly.

Amber was also silent.

What did he mean?

Why would Jared say so?

The moment the question rose in her heart, Talon asked it out.

Talon's hands quivered and then he twitched his mouth before he said, "Why would you think so?"

"Because I know what the kind of person you are," Jared opened his mouth, "You are not the legitimate son of your father. That's why you want to be the master of the Rylands' family more than anyone else. Though you are so far a winner from all those illegitimate sons, you are still afraid of death."

The word "death" made Talon flinch a little.

Seemingly, Jared did not sense the change on Talon's face and he continued, "You'll have nothing if you die. So, you must know it clearly that if you dare to catch me or kill me, the Farrell family will spare no efforts to replace you and kill you. You have no power to resist. Otherwise, you would have asked your men to catch me the moment I showed up."

Talon remained silent and no emotion could be told from his face. He only fixed his eyes on Jared firmly.

Amber knew Jared had got it right.

She was quite confused why Talon did not catch Jared when he showed up and she was also wondering why Jared dared to show up alone.

And now she knew the answer.

"So, could you give me Amber right now?" Jared walked over to him, "My request is still the same. You give me Amber and I let you go. You can kill whoever you want and I won't stop you. And my revenge late won't take your life. It's a fair deal."

"Do not come over!" seeing Jared approaching him, Talon shouted suddenly.

Jared paused for a second before he continued to walk to him.

Seeing him showing no sign of stopping, Talon was so angry that he could not help but grind his teeth with wrath. His beautiful face was now as distorted as a devil's.

One of his men shouted, "What shall we do, young master? Shall we give him the woman he wants?"

"Or we can catch him and do not hurt him. We can free him when our helicopter arrives."

Lights flashed in Talon's eyes and he clenched his hands into fists. Hesitation was written all over on his face.

But now Jeremy's sound, soft yet filled with hatred, emerged suddenly, "Finally, I replace you, Talon."

Jared's face changed suddenly and he turned to look at Jeremy. He scolded in his mind, "Idiot!" What an untimely arrival!

Talon was about to free Amber and leave here for now because of Jared's words. After all, Jared came here alone and he could not stop them to leave. He could deal with Jeremy later. If Jared wanted to revenge on him later, he could still be alive. Then he could come back later. Maybe he would become powerful enough to have Jared killed.

But now the appearance of Jeremy and a large number of men with him made him know that he could not run away. The helicopter had not arrived and if he freed Amber, Jeremy wouldn't let him go. So, now the only choice was to threaten them with Amber's life.

Over this, Talon took a step sideways and took Amber with him. After taking off the coat on Amber's body, he took a few steps backwards with one hand on Amber's neck.

Not far from here was a dangerous slope, which was approximately a few dozen meters long.

And at the end of it there was a cliff.

The sudden move of Talon made all the people present stunned.

Seeing Talon held Amber with him at the edge of the slope with his hands on her neck, Jared felt quite nervous, "Let her go, Talon!"

Now he wanted to have Jeremy killed.

If Jeremy had show up just a second after Talon freed Amber, then the situation wouldn't have gone worse as such.

Jeremy had no idea what Jared had in mind. But he knew Talon would do that because of his appearance. So, he's face got quite dark, "Didn't you hear what he said? Let Amber go."

"Let her go?" Talon stared at Amber's face with his head moving to one side and smiled coldly, "Let her go and then get caught by you? Not so easy. If I didn't get hindered by the traffic jam on my way here, I wouldn't have been trapped in such an awkward situation."

"What do you want to do?" Jared clenched his hands so hard that his knuckles turned white.

"What I want is simple. I want him to die!" Talon fixed his eyes on Jeremy, "You've said that you didn't mind if I killed Jeremiah Rylands. So, if he dies, then we can go back to where we were before Jeremiah showed up. I let your ex-wife go and you let me go. Then I will accept whatever you will do to me later."

What he wanted now was merely to be alive.

If he was alive, he could have the chance to turn the table. If he could be the master of the Rylands' family, and punish those who looked down upon him as he was an illegitimate child. He would rather be disabled if he could do that.

"So, you want me to kill him?" Jared squinted and had a glimpse at Jeremy.

Jeremy did not say anything as if his life was not on other's hand. He lowered his eyelids so no one could sense whether he was angry or not.

"Exactly." Talon nodded.

That's exactly what he meant.

Jared stared at Jeremy coldly, "Did you hear that? He wants me to kill you."

Jeremy looked into his eyes, "Then, will you?"--------------
