Chapter 1774

"Did she give her heart to me, now?" Jameson stared icily at Carl with an arched brow. "Stop

bluffing me. She has no right to do that.

"She doesn't even deserve to fall for Axel Whitaker. That dude is Lyse's brother and a Taylor. She

should know her place.

"I'm just curious if Amber would kill Axel for me. Failing to do so, I can't guarantee that I'd treat her

as well as before."

Carl was filled with shock when he realized that Jameson had only spared Amber to use her to kill

Axel. Jameson was the type of man who would not change his mind after he harbored suspicions

about someone.

Carl's phone started vibrating from an incoming call. He answered the call, and his expression

promptly fell.

Jameson asked, "What's wrong?"

"Mr. Schmidt, I just got the news that Mr. Victor had sent the attorneys and his secretary to the

detention center. They had a half-hour secret meeting with Josh!" Carl started feeling nervous.

"Could Josh have transferred his stocks to—"

"Get the car ready! We're off to Solana City Private Hospital!" Jameson stormed out of his office with

a chilling look in his eyes.

At the same time, Alyssa stood in front of the mirror in the bedroom of Heightsview Villa. She was

donned in a chic black suit, her long hair tumbling over her shoulders and her lips a hue of flaming

red. She carried herself with an authoritative air, a look of masculine determination etched on her

face.

Today was the day she officially presented herself as the KS Group president at the board of

directors’ meeting. It also heralded a new era that came with new battles.

"My dear Ms. Alyssa, how are you feeling? Nervous?" Jasper wrapped his arms around her waist, his

lips brushing occasionally against her nape.

Feeling ticklish, she wiggled in his arms, breaking the image of a strong-willed businesswoman. She

confessed, "How could I not be? I'll face a room of snakes. I wonder how they're going to teach me

a lesson.”

"You have nothing to be afraid of with me around." He sniffed her neck and kissed her smooth skin.

Then, he rasped, "If they bully you today, do tell me about it when you're home today. I'll back you

up."

"Back me up? I'd count my blessings if you didn't run me to the ground,” she purred shyly.

Last night, Jasper, driven mad by his desire, repeatedly took her in various sexual positions that they

had never tried before. Despite the embarrassment, she found herself indulging in their intimacy.

That morning, he had to carry her to the bathroom because she was too sore to move. In the

bathroom, he couldn't stop himself from making love to her again.

Her casual remark had aroused him again. He carried a look of lust in his eyes as his hand traveled

up her body, teasing her. Then, he unfastened two buttons on her shirt.

"N-Not now.” She pressed her hand against his as she trembled.

She could sense his raging boner pressing against her body.

"We still have a lot of time before the meeting.” Nibbling at her reddened ears, he persuaded her in

a low voice, "I'll be gentle. I promise not to tire you out. Lyse, I want to give you some good loving.

Is that okay?"
