031.

“Why didn’t you tell me?” Axel asked, covering his face with his palm.

Amber sat up. “I didn’t think it was that big of a deal. Besides, I’m an adult now, aren’t 1?” she asked, but Axel shook his head.

“I can’t do this to you, Amber,” he got down from the bed. “I seriously can’t. I can’t sue your first time like that. I thought…” he paused and released a heavy breath. “I thought you’ve had flings, you know. Maybe in high school or anything. People do that, don’t they?”

Amber lowered her head. “Yes, they do, and I had every opportunity to do that as well,” she got down from the bed and held his hand. “But I waited because of you. I already told you about the kiss, didn’t I? I wanted you to be the first to do everything to me, Axel.”

Axel sighed and ruffled his hair. This wasn’t what he was expecting from her at all. How could he bring himself to sleep with her? She was a beautiful girl that every guy wanted and even though he and Cole sent them away from her back in high school, h

    032.Cole’s gaze flickered between Axel and Amber as they ate dinner. It was rare… very rare for Amber and Axel not to have any conversations when they were having dinner together. And it was quite shocking that Amber didn’t pick up a fight with him as well. ‘Did they have an argument?’ he thought but quickly shook his head.That was impossible. Amber and Axel were like two peas in a pod. They hardly fight or have any arguments, making him wonder what might be going on with them.He glanced at Amber who was eating her food slowly, an unreadable expression on her face. Then at Axel, who just flipped the sausage in his plate back and forth. He hadn’t even touched his food. Cole sighed. He couldn’t take this anymore. He dropped his fork on the plate, making a clanging sound.His sudden action caused both Axel and Amber to look up at him with raised eyebrows, the tension in the air suddenly growing thicker. “What's up, man?” Axel asked, putting on a brave face despite the tension visi

    033. “Amy, have you noticed that Axel isn’t quite himself today?” Melissa pointed to the basketball court and Amber’s gaze followed her hands to rest on Axel, who was on the bench with his face buried in his palms. Amber raised an eyebrow. ‘Did he get benched?’ she thought as she watched him ruffle his hair. “I don’t think he’s fine. You should go check on him.” she suggested. Amber huffed, her expression hardening as she recalled what had transpired between them. “Why must I be the one to check on him?” Melissa raised a brow, confusion dancing around her face. “What do you mean? Of course, you’re the one to check on him. Do I have any business with him besides being his Cat eyes best friend?” she asked, but Amber rolled her eyes. “He looks perfectly fine.” Amber waved it off. Melissa wasn’t having it. “Look at that face, Amy, does that look fine to you?” she asked. Amber looked up again to see him biting his lip. She knew Axel too well—she had probably watched him all her li

    034. Amber sat at the cafeteria eating lunch with Melissa and Jack when Axel walked in. Their eyes met. He only gave her a short nod and took a seat with his basketball teammates. Amber lowered her head, her heart aching slightly. On a normal day, he would come sit with her. He never cared if his teammates were with him — he always had dinner with her but today? Today, he was with them. Amber sighed. He was definitely avoiding her. She couldn’t deny the fact that she wasn’t mad about what he did to her, but one part of her still wanted him to behave like he always did to her. She didn’t want him to distance himself or avoid her — it was hurting her. Melissa noticed her mood and nudged her with her leg. “Girl, what’s going on with you and Axel? You have refused to tell me anything, and you keep looking at him like he hurt her, and you still can’t get over him. Amber bit her lower lip. Melissa knew how to get to her. She had no idea how the lady does it, but she knew and could read

    035. Amber was seated in her room, her mind replaying the argument she had with Jack. He was damn right about some things he said — like Cole finding out and how it would affect his friendship with Axel, her heart getting broken and things not being the way they were supposed to be anymore, but she saw nothing wrong with one going after what he or she wanted. Like she earlier stated, there wasn’t a law that forbade people from dating their best friend’s sibling or a girl dating her brother’s best friend. She couldn’t wrap her head around how it had to be considered a taboo anyway. She ruffled her hair continuously, exhaling. Standing to her feet, she walked to where her study table was placed and stared out the window and into Axel’s room. He was seated there with his back turned to her and his head lowered. Amber had no idea what he was doing, but she couldn’t bring herself to ask him either. She recalled his mood in school and wondered if he was doing alright. A messaged popped

    036. Amber sat in class the next day, twirling her pen in her hand, her thoughts filled with what transpired between her and Axel. She couldn't shake the feeling that she might have been too harsh, that maybe she should have tried to understand his perspective. After all, she knew he cared about her, and that his behavior was driven by concern but still… she felt lost and didn’t even know what to think of him anymore. “Hey, you okay?” Melissa asked, giving Amber a nudge. Amber snapped out of her reverie, glancing up at Melissa. “I'm…I'm not sure,” she said, her voice quiet. “Axel?” Melissa guessed, her eyebrows raised. Amber gave a small nod, her lips pursing. “I know he was only trying to protect me. But I can't help feeling like he's trying to control me, like he doesn't want me anymore and still won’t let me be with someone else.” Melissa leaned in closer, lowering her voice. “I can see why that would bother you, but try to look at it from his point of view. He doesn't want yo

    037. Amber stared at Kevin, her brows furrowed in confusion. “I have no idea what you mean, sir.” she answered, her voice barely above a whisper. Kevin’s laugh lacked humor as he crossed his legs from where he was seated, his gaze suddenly turning cold as he looked up to meet Amber’s confused gaze. “Oh, so now you act like you know nothing about what I’m saying?” he asked. Amber shrugged. “I really don’t know what you’re talking about. I know Axel, and I know he is your son, but I’m failing to understand the path where you said I destroyed your relationship with him. We haven’t even met before.” Kevin frowned, his voice low and cold. “I don’t have the time to explain something you already know to you, Amber Smith. You caused a rift between my son and Candice, and you have the guts to show your face here? Asking me to serve as a dog for your stupid school project?” Amber gasped. “I didn’t-“ “Oh you want to deny it now, don’t you?” he snickered and leaned back on his seat.

    038. Amber walked out of the office, her eyes misty. She wondered how she was going to convince Axel’s father after what happened between them today and after he had made it crystal clear to her that he hated her and would never help her. Just thinking about it brought tears to her eyes as she made her way to the classroom. She took a seat, her lips trembling. Professor Jenna was tough and Amber knew if she didn’t get this done, she was going to fail. She might be her favorite student, but when it came to scoring and grades, Professor Jenna was ruthless - even more ruthless with her star students. “What do I do?” she whispered to herself as she looked around the empty classroom. Jack and Melissa were busy with their projects, and it would be hard for them to spend time together now - she had no one to tell her hurt and she felt useless, like she wasn’t good enough and why all these had to happen to her. She couldn’t do anything about it. Amber knew she was trapped and there was

Her grades depended on this — she couldn’t fail.Melissa rushed into the classroom. “Amy, I ran here as soon as I was done and got your text. Axel’s father really said all that to you?” Amber nodded and ruffled her hair. “The man hates me. If I don’t get this project done before the timeframe elapses, I’m as good as writing this course again.” she sat down and Melissa sat beside her.Melissa placed a comforting hand on Amber’s shoulders. “I’m sorry you had to go through something like this.”Amber sighed, and shook her head. “It’s fine. How about yours?” she asked.Melissa smiled. “I’ve been able to get everything done. All that’s left is submitting it to Professor Jenna.”Amber gasped. “Whoa. That was fast. This was supposed to take two weeks.”Melissa nodded. “Yeah, but he is a busy man, so we spent yesterday and today getting it d

    125 ~ Final Chapter ~ Epilogue Wedding Day… “Don’t cry, baby. You’re gonna ruin your makeup.” Loris said, her own tears falling. Amber nodded. “Mum, you asked me not to cry but you’re doing the exact same thing.” she sniffled, trying to hold back her tears. Loris wiped her face with the back of her palm. “It’s just that I can still remember forcing you to go to College that fateful day, and you didn’t want to because you didn’t want to stay with Cole. But you had no idea Axel was there. You two started young, and you’ve been through a lot together. I’m so proud of you for being so strong and resilient.” Amber smiled, squeezing her mother’s hand gently. “I wouldn’t have gotten through it all without Axel, Cole, my friends, and you, Mom. And now, here I am, about to marry the love of my life. It’s a dream come true.” “And I’m honored to be here,” Loris replied, her voice soft and loving. “Now, I don’t want to be responsible for making you late on your wedding day, so let’s g

    124 ~ Penultimate ChapterA Day Later…Axel’s eyes fluttered open and the first set of eyes he met were those cat eyes he fell in love with. As he stared into those eyes, everything came rushing back to him and a small smile played on his lips.“Cat eyes,” he called weakly and she hugged him, but was careful not to hurt him.“Oh, Axel! I’m so happy you’re awake!” she burst into tears, a flood of relief washing over her. When she saw him get stabbed, it was almost like her world had come to a halt. She’d panicked and gotten angry that she had to inflict the same pain on Jack without even thinking twice.Axel winced slightly as Amber tightened her embrace, but he smiled. “I’m sorry I worried you,” he whispered. “But I’m here, and I’m not going anywhere.”Amber pulled back, her eyes bright with tears. “How are you feeling?” she asked, smoothing his hair back with a gentle hand.“Better, now theat you’re here,” Axel replied, a weak but genuine smile on his face. “Are you okay?”Amber snif

    123.A.A Entertainment…That same night, Larissa had fallen asleep in the employee’s lounge while resting. Her eyes suddenly snapped open, and she checked her wristwatch to see that it was already late into the night. She tried to call Axel, but his number was not going through. She couldn’t get Maverick either.Her eyes darted to the glass of juice she had taken. Something didn’t feel right. She wasn’t one to sleep this long and in the company for that matter. She stood up and quickly rushed to Maverick’s office, but he had just woken up too.“This can’t be a coincidence. How did we fall asleep at the same time?” Larissa asked.Maverick was about to answer when they heard a sound coming from Axel’s office. They both exchanged worried looks. “Quick, call the nearby police station. I’m sure it’s either a thief or someone I’ve been suspecting for days now.”Maverick nodded and went to make a call while Larissa snuck into the office. There she was, standing with her phone placed on her e

    122.Amber stumbled backwards, feeling like a knife had been pierced through her chest. In that moment, the words of Friedrich Nietzsche which says “Betrayal hurts more when it comes from someone we trust. And the pain is reminder that our trust was misplaced and our love was blind.”She couldn’t believe the one person she had trusted with her life during her time of pain was the same person that caused her the pain to begin with?Ironically, it was like a twisted game of chess where she had been nothing more than a pawn, manipulated by a mastermind who had disguised himself as a friend and confidant. It was a cruel irony that only added to the bitter sting of betrayal.Amber swallowed hard, the ache in her heart intensifying. “How could you?” she asked, her voice shaky. “I trusted you. Melissa trusted you. Cole, my parents, we all did.”Jack didn’t have an ounce of remorse on his face. “I did what I had to do to get you, Amber,” he replied. “When I confessed my feelings in college an

    121.Amber exchanged worried glances with Cole and the rest. “It can’t be, right?” she whispered, her chest tightening. “Jack can’t be Don. It’s not possible. He would never hurt anyone.”“Amber is right. Are you sure you checked the address correctly? Maybe there was a glitch or something?” Melissa asked. She might be mad at Jack for everything he had done, but she knew him too well. He would never hurt anyone. He wouldn’t stoop this low.Cole looked uncertain, but he was sure this can’t be a mix-up. He was a computer expert, and there was no effing way he would have gotten the wrong address. “As much as this might sound shocking, it might actually be true. Think about it, Jack is the only rival Axel has now. He used to date Amber before Axel returned. And according to what I’ve heard him say, he’s loved Amber since College.”Axel nodded. “Cole is right.”Amber shook her head. “No, this can’t be right,” she began pacing, her heart pounding in her chest. “I know Jack might be temperam

    120.Axel felt like a thunderclap had just sounded in his head the minute he saw the message. Cole leaned close to Axel so he could take a look.“Whoa!” Cole exclaimed. “He caught the bait. But what the heck is Amber doing outside?”Axel sighed. “I can’t break up with Amber, Cole. She would be devastated,” he massaged his temple as he thought of a plan. “Devastated,” he repeated. “That’s it!” Cole arched an eyebrow. “What do you mean?” he gasped. “Don’t tell me you’re going to really break up with her? Axel, Amber might faint, and I will beat you up! It’s not a threat, it’s a promise.” Cole warned.“Relax and hear me out,” Axel said and Cole took a deep breath to calm himself down. “I am going to break up with her, but it’s not going to be a real breakup. We have to find a way to let in on the plan.”Cole seemed to get it and nodded. “Don’t worry. I know how to do that,” he said and Axel raised an eyebrow.“How? We can’t inform her through calls or texts. Our phones might be connecte

    119.“Uh… I was…”Larissa folded her arms, her expression stern. “What are you doing in Axel’s office and why are his files scattered on the desk?” she asked, her eyes running over the mess Candice had made.Candice knew she needed to find a way out of this mess. “Uh… it’s not something serious. I just,”“You just what?” Larissa asked, her voice getting hard. Last time she checked, employees weren’t allowed in Axel’s office, especially when he wasn’t in. Coupled with that, Axel didn’t even like Candice to begin with, so there was no way he would ask her to get anything from his office for him, not when she and Maverick were around.“I was looking for the file I submitted to Mr. Axel,” she began, her heart beating frantically in her chest. “I mean, my resume and stuff. I don’t know where I kept the original anymore, and I need to check something urgently, that’s why I came here to find it.”Larissa scoffed. If Candice thought she was going to believe any of those lies, the lady was cle

    118. The reporter’s voice echoed through the television in a serious, breaking news tone, “This just in: The only son of the world-renowned billionaire, Kevin King, has taken to social media to announce that his wedding to renowned journalist Amber Smith is soon, with the date being kept a secret.” The news spread like wildfire. Within minutes, the entire nation was buzzing with excitement, speculating about the date and location of the wedding. But underneath the glamour and excitement, a darker force lurked in the shadows. As the days passed, Amber and Axel played their part, lavishing each other with affection in the public eye. Every post, every picture, every tweet seemed to fuel the media frenzy and the anger of the dangerous underdog. Meanwhile, Cole and Axel worked tirelessly to track the mysterious Don. But despite their best efforts, they kept coming up short. The spyware was immune to every hack they tried, and the location remained hidden. It was as if Don were a ghost,

    117.After the dinner, Amber, Larissa and Melissa stayed back to help Loris clean. Kevin talked over wine with Mr. Smith while Axel felt like his world had been tilted. Cole walked to him and held his hand, leading him upstairs to his room.Maverick, who had also noticed the distressful look on Axel's face had to follow them as well. They got to Cole's room and he locked the door then turned to face Axel.“Spill it. What happened back at the dinner? Your phone beeped, you checked it and all of a sudden, your mood changed. You haven't been yourself since then,” he said and Axel let out a sigh. “You might not married to Amber yet, but you and I have been friends long enough to be called family, and I won't appreciate it if you decide to hide this from me.”“I don't intend to hide this from you, Cole,” Axel said, his tone low. “I'm just worried. I might not be as scared as I was years ago, but I'm worried. Don is back.”“What!” Maverick and Cole exclaimed at the same time.“How is that p
