Facing all of them alone, taking Axel's life would be effortless.Carl had nowhere to run—Amber was his last shot at staying alive. The woman he professed to love was now his hostage, a tragic twist of fate that seemed almost too absurd to bear."Axel… Leave me… Go!" Amber's voice was resolute despite the tears brimming in her eyes."Don't you dare touch her. If you do, I will ensure you die a torturous death!" Axel's eyes burned with fury and ice, radiating a palpable menace."Amber has registered her marriage with me. She is legally mine!"The look in Carl's eyes was feral.

The church was surrounded by the police on all sides. Carl was already at the end of his rope. He was at a dead end!"Stop resisting!" Carl snarled, tightening his grip on Amber. Her face paled as she struggled for breath, her lips turning purple.Amber rasped, "You can't escape. It's over for both you and Jameson.""Shut up!" Carl roared, his eyes bloodshot and body trembling violently.Unexpectedly, Amber burst into laughter, her eyes filled with delight and relief.With no other option, Carl dragged her up the ten-story old tower at the church's back.

Alyssa, with a fiery gaze, stared straight at the seemingly endless road ahead of her. She followed the GPS route and drove herself in the black car toward Rose Nursing Home. She had also switched her phone off per Jameson's instruction. She knew Miley would soon realize her absence from the presidential office and would undoubtedly launch a city-wide search. She would also track the location of her phone. Green flashes blurred past the window as she sped along.

"You're already married? You have a husband? When was this? How could this be?" "There's no need for me to lie to you, Mrs. Schmidt. It's true," Alyssa replied, trying to maintain a warm tone without faltering. "My husband and I have known each other for over ten years. I've loved him since I was young.

Even his gun-holding hand shook uncontrollably.He hesitated to disengage the safety, fearing a panicked misfire. Even now, with no way out, he had never thought of taking Amber's life. As long as there was a sliver of hope, he wanted to take Amber away with him.Tragedy was imminent, and he knew it was now every man for himself. Jameson no longer cared about him. At a crucial juncture, Jameson would even sell him out.Thus, he had prepared himself beforehand.
