Can’t Win Me Back

Axel was standing on a balcony at Heightsnew Villa when he answered Jameson's call, his black coat billowing in the wind.
The chilling wind stung his cheeks.
Jameson's mocking voice was like a devil's whisper.
A lump formed in Axel's throat, making it hard to breathe.
His eyes burned red.
"Jameson, you must have a fucking death wish!" "T've heard that countless times
in the last 15 years.
But talk is cheap.
No one's touched me yet," Jameson replied with a chuckle.
"Care to be the one to walk into the lion's den, Mr. Axel?" "You think you're a lion? Ha!" Axel scoffed, his chest heaving.
"You're just a hyena feeding on carrion." "Amber and my secretary, Carl, will be having their grand wedding in Kontina next Saturday.
She's the woman you're deeply in love with.
Will it be a lifetime of regret for you if you missed her wedding?" A seasoned secret agent, Axel's instincts were razor-sharp, yet Jameson's words chilled him to the bone.
"Jameson, if you hurt Amber, I'll hunt you down.
To the ends of the earth, or hell itself!" "T plan to give the newlyweds a grand gift on their big day." Jameson sniggered, his voice filled with twisted excitement.
"I hope you'll join us in Kontina.
If not, you'll regret it for the rest of your life." "Jameson Schmidt!" Axel roared with hatred in his eyes.
But Jameson had already hung up, leaving Axel's rage and hatred to consume him.
"amber, wait for me.
I'll save you, even if it kills me," he vowed.
As Axel inhaled deeply, the frigid air felt like knives in his lungs.
His muscles tensed as he stepped away from the balcony.
Startled, he froze.
"Dad?" As a top agent, Axel was quick and sharp.
But his emotions had clouded his senses, and he hadn't noticed Winston's arrival.
"Were you talking to that Schmidt bastard, Axel?" Winston's gaze was concerned.
"Why did he call you? What does he want?" "Nothing," Axel replied, his lashes fluttering, his face pale.
Years of solitude and the nature of his job had made him a lone wolf.
Due to this, he had always found it hard to confide in anyone.
Besides, he and Winston had always been distant.
So naturally, he kept to himself.
"Nothing? How could it have been nothing?" Anxious, Winston went right up to Axel.
"You are my son.
No matter how annoyed you are by me or how much you try to avoid me, you are
still my son! "you're not like Silas or Liam, who share their feelings.
Or Jonah, who makes friends everywhere.
You seem strong and independent, but I know you worry the most.
You are the one with the most fragile of hearts.
You are my son.
How could I not be worried?" Axel met Winston's gaze, a crushing pain in his heart.
"Jameson is a ruthless man with many evil deeds under his belt.
He even dared to set me up so he could have Lyse.
As for you...
he wouldn't even bat an eye even if he killed you." Winston grabbed Axel's shoulders, desperation in his voice.
"Ax, don't go.
No matter what Jameson says, don't go." Axel Jet out a haughty laugh, feigning indifference.
"Have you forgotten that I'm a secret agent, Dad? You would've seen my obituary long ago if Jameson's little trick was enough to stumble me." "Damn it.
I wasn't joking with you!" Winston was furious, hitting Axel's head.
"As your father, I am forbidding you from going!" Despite the pain, Axel felt a
warmth in his heart.
This rare moment of connection made him regret their distant past.
"T have to go, Dad," Axel said, his gaze determined.
"I must see Jameson.

He choked, "I want to marry her, Dad.
I want to be together with her." Winston was astounded.
His heart wrenched.
The Taylors were passionate lovers.
"Don't worry, Dad.
I'll return safely with your daughter-in-law," Axel promised, hugging Winston.
Winston was near tears.
Knowing he couldn't stop his son, he said, "Just come back safely.
I'll wait for you." Axel chuckled.
"I will.
You'll be crying tears of joy when I return." Winston scoffed and smacked Axel's
head again.

His gaze was intense and determined.
