Amber followed Carl to the venue with a stoic demeanor, even though she was drenched in a cold sweat and dragged her feet.
She recalled the pot of roses thrown out by Jameson, and she went through all possible worst-case scenarios.
Jameson had always cherished the red roses. His sudden decision to throw them out and his act of summoning her suggested that he had found out about the tapping device.
When she snapped back to reality, she shut her eyes and inhaled deeply. When she opened her eyes again, they shone with a determined look as if she was ready to face her execution.
Death was inevitable anyway. Having mentally braced herself for the worst, she found herself unshaken by fear.
…
Amber was led to the ghoulish basement, where countless people lost their lives in executions.
A few guards stood in the corners of the basement. Clad in an impeccable grey suit, Jameson lounged on the red velvet couch in the middle of the space. Legs folded, he enjoyed a glass of red wine.
His relaxed presence was a stark contrast to the eerie environment.
"Amber, I heard you were in your room for four days. How are you feeling? Better?" Jameson swirled the red wine with an unreadable smile.
Amber bit her lower lip, offering no reply.
He squinted and adjusted his glasses. Then, he beckoned at her. "Amber, come to me."
A nauseous feeling rose within her. However, she had no choice but to walk up to Jameson.

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
I am trying to figure out why an author writes one page and it is suppose to be a chapter and then the author gets the audience hooked on the story and just drags it on. Follow the rules please, and at least give the 7 chapters daily. Two chapters every other day is a waste of time. Or just release the book and give us the option to buy it....
Ughhh…can we get more pleeeease! I’m so into this book and literally check daily for updates but it’s only two pages at most. Can you at least do 4 pages a night 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽...
More chapters please the 7 chapters/day would be nice, TY...
Where can i download the remaining chapters?...
Why are we literally only getting one chapter a day?!? I mean can we at least get 4 or something? Irritating🙄...
