Julien blinked. Being observant and having dated Jonah for a while, he immediately noticed his lover spacing out. "You're not attentive. Are you feeling unwell?"Jonah's heart sank. He denied in a raspy voice, "No. I'm fine.""Julien, I have a favor to ask of you!" Alyssa quickly distracted Julien, whisking him away to the living room. She said to Jonah, "Jonah, what are you doing? You should throw together some food for Julien!""Sure." Jonah left without a word.Meanwhile, Julien kept turning around to check on Jonah. Something felt amiss, but he couldn't quite put a finger on it.Back in the living room, Alyssa laid out the pills she brought with her on the coffee table. "Julien, please run some tests on the components of this drug. You're the domain expert, not to mention you have the right equipment for it.""What's this?" Frowning, he scrutinized the blue pills."There were a few consecutive cases of drug addicts dying of heart attack in Solana City, but in the post-mortem

She woke up early in the morning, put on her volunteer uniform, and brought the gifts for the kids before driving out in haste."Ms. Altman, you're here early!""Good morning, Ms. Altman!""How have you been, Ms. Altman?"The teachers and volunteers went up to greet her. She was popular among the people at the orphanage.She greeted everyone and distributed her handmade snacks."Wow! Ms. Altman, you're back with your apple pies! We love it!"

"You—" Amber glared at him in embarrassment. Her eyes were dewy and sparkling.Axel tilted his head with a roguish smile. He tapped his lips to remind her.Suddenly, he frowned and spun around. A group of smiling kids had gathered by the backdoor of the classroom to watch the drama unfold. Their cute heads peeked out of the door, one on top of another, which was rather hilarious to see.They would have made a fuss if they could speak."You rascal!" Amber's face reddened. She shoved him away before fleeing and herding the kids back into the classroom.Her scolding sounded flirtatious to Axel. His smile deepened when he relished her remark.Amber returned to the podium after soothing the children. When she looked up, she found Axel shamelessly sitting in a chair by an unoccupied table in the last row. He folded his arms and rested them on the table, blinking obediently like he, too, was a student.She flustered under his watch. It wasn't until she took a few deep breaths that she

Chapter 2004

Though Amber tried to kick Axel out, he shamelessly stuck around. However, he merely observed her from a distance without disrupting her work.He watched as she joined the cooks to prepare food. Despite her petite frame, she stirred the food in the industrial cooking pots with ease. She harvested, washed, and cut the vegetables expertly, as if it were second nature.With his arms folded across his chest, Axel became engrossed in her actions. Beads of sweat dotted her forehead, and a few strands of hair clung to her cheek. Despite her disheveled appearance while working, he found her beauty captivating.Every time they crossed paths, she carried herself like a flawless masterpiece, catching the attention of the opposite sex. However, Axel found her prettier in her current state—more vibrant and real.As Amber's "friend", Axel was invited to lunch with the other kids when food was served.

Amber remarked flatly, "That sounded so pervy."Axel's expression collapsed. He argued, "I was a brother who doted on his sister! You just don't get it!"He took care of Alyssa for another reason. Before their mother passed away, she called the four siblings to her bed and reminded the brothers to take care of Alyssa to the best of their ability. He recalled Jennifer comforting them, "Don't cry. Please don't think that Mommy is not around anymore. Mommy will be in the sky, looking after you and protecting you."He teared up at the thoughts—a lump formed in his throat."That was really sweet." Amber stared at her reflection on the water, which resembled Alyssa. Her heart skipped a beat at the sight, and she hurriedly hid the reflection with clothes. She added, "Ms. Alyssa certainly grew up in happiness."Despite taking on Alyssa's face, Amber knew her fate was the opposite of Alyssa's. Alyssa was the daughter of a wealthy family who was raised in love and great care, unlike herse

Chapter 2006

Amber returned to the laundry room after helping the teacher.Upon her return, she was forced up against the wall by Axel, who pressed his body against her and stared into her eyes.Her heart was beating uncontrollably. Drawn into his bright and sharp gaze, she found herself falling helplessly for him.She longed for a ray of light to shine through the cracks and illuminate her dark life. His eyes turned out to be the source of light she had been searching high and low for."Ms. Altman, did you leave something behind just now?" he teased her in a low chuckle that ended with a seductive lilt."What…" Her voice trailed off. She grabbed the edge of the wall firmly as her heart pounded like a drum.Grinning, he casually brushed his nose tip against hers. The gentle and cheeky move resembled the touch of a lover. Suddenly, he rasped, "You left my heart behind."Amber, whose heart had been racing, broke into laughter. Axel raised a quizzical brow at her. "Tsk! What are you laughing at

Amber stared at the sparklers vacantly as tears welled up in her eyes. She clutched her fists, holding back her emotions."Come join me! Let's have some fun." Axel bounced up to her and handed her a sparkler with eyes that shone bright like the sun.She accepted the sparkler with trembling fingers, knowing that he must have come prepared with them. It was impossible to get this stuff at the remote location of the orphanage.The light from her sparklers danced on her face. A smile appeared on her face. She took on a resemblance to the girl in the locket when she smiled."Do you like that massive fireworks show I put on for you the last time?" He glanced at her before asking.Staring at the sparkler in her hand, she replied softly, "Yeah.""Well, that doesn't mean anything. I'm not as rich as Landon Harper. Can't afford a showy performance worth tens of millions," Axel blurted out.She flashed a faint smile at him, having been used to his blunt and outspoken manner—probably the re

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

Chapter 2009

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.

She fell face-first onto the floor and passed out.…Amber opened her eyes and found herself

Chapter 2010

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
