Winner Takes All novel Chapter 407

Jack opened his eyes.

He saw the beautiful face of Amber.

The lights were dark. Amber's eyes were filled with love.

Jack lost himself for a second as he looked at her.

"What are you staring at? Dummy." Amber's cheeks were a little red as she asked him.

Jack laughed, then he got up, " Was I here alone for a long time?"

"Yes, it's almost midnight now. Mr. Ward asked me not to disturb you. He said you had lots on your mind. However, I got worried as you did not go downstairs.

Amber held his arm. Seeing his eyes, she felt sorry.

She didn't want to see him being so tired of thinking about those things, but she knew that it couldn't be avoided.

Her man was a person who would wear the crown and be the king someday.

The only thing that she could do was to support him, to love him, and to give him warmth.

Back in the bedroom.

Jack took a shower but as he laid down on the bed, he wasn't tired anymore.

Amber was in his arms. Once in a while, she would look up at him.

It was very quiet in the room.

Only the nightlight beside their bed was on.

There was a light scent in the room.

"Are you sleeping?" Amber asked.

"I can't." Jack shook his head and knitted his brows, "I feel like I'm suffocating."

Suffocating?

Amber's little body trembled slightly, and her face blushed even more.

Her beautiful eyes flashed, then she said with red lips, "I heard that the guy will always be suffocating when his wife is pregnant."

Jack was shocked. All his thoughts were swept away.

What!

What was his wife thinking about?

Since when was she being so straightforward?

Before Jack could explain.

Amber suddenly climbed on Jack quickly as a cat, and said while breathing hot air on him, "I can help you."

The sentence caused Jack to swallow his words back.

He was confused yet nervous.

Ever since Amber got pregnant, he really didn't...

Now that his wife was so willing to have sex with him, he couldn't help but be excited.

"Do you want it?" Amber's lips were beside his ears, asking him.

Her warm breath made his sight blurred.

They were legally married, this should be alright?

When he thought of that, Jack suddenly felt hot, and he looked at Amber.

But when his eyes scanned her belly, suddenly his excitement was gone.

What kind of man was he to think about that when his wife was pregnant?

Jack cursed himself in his heart, then he reached out to touch her nose, "What are you thinking about, Dummy?"

Amber was startled.

Jack explained, "When I said I feel suffocated, I meant everything that happened these days, the things happened to my mother, Yael, and my father. Except for my mother's issue, everything else seems like a maze to me, so I feel suffocated."

"What!"

Amber's face turned pale, as she was surprised and shy.

Just like a scared kitten, she buried her head in Jack's chest and pulled the blanket over to cover herself.

"Ahh,Dummy! Would you mind making yourself clear in the future, I thought... I thought... you are a bad man!"

When he heard Amber blaming him, he laughed.

And he felt much better.

He reached out a hand and turned off the light, wrapped himself around Amber, and fell asleep.

In the following three days.

Yael had continuous bad news.

The five groups which tried to make trouble to ZX Finances together made him worried. Even for Yael and Amelia, they were having trouble fighting against them.
