Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1254

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.

Amber gently touched her hair stick. If things went according to plan tonight, her beloved hair stick 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.
