Of course, he was humiliated.

He came here certain that this woman wouldn't dare to reject him and would just follow him blindly.

However, this woman was in no way weak and was pretty tough which made him realize that he was quite stupid to be so

confident before.

This was basically a slap on his face.

How can he be nice then?

Amber sensed Oller's threatening intention in his voice and clutched her purse tighter, "My answer remains the same no matter how many times you ask me. I won't go to meet him."

She would be crazy to follow him.

God knew what would happen if she just went to meet Connor.

She definitely wouldn't follow him for the sake of safety.

Seeing that Amber remained stubborn, Oller lost his patience and got grim, "Ms. Reed, since you wouldn't follow me, I have no choice but to take you to meet my boss."

"How you dare?" Amber immediately changed her face and took a step back. Suppressing her inner fear, she stared at Oller cautiously, "You are at the Kelsington Bay. This is a high-end condo in Olkmore and has surveillance cameras everywhere. If you dare to do something to me here, I'm sure you would be punished. Your boss would also suffer. Do you think that Jared would let you get away from this?"

Oller stooped automatically when he heard Amber's warning and replaced his coldness with worry.

He just wanted to get his job down and let Amber go to meet his boss, but he forgot that he was in the Olkmore and it was

Jared's turf.

He can't just do whatever he wanted.

Once Jared knew that he dared to force his woman, he would absolutely get fuming.

At that time, Connor's plan would just...

Oller clenched his fist together and didn't know what to do.

Seeing that he had stopped approaching her, Amber knew that her words had got to his heart.

She was relieved and at the same time touched.

Jared was always protecting her. Though he wasn't with her, his name can just make her safe.

She wouldn't need to fear anything as long as he was with her.

He really delivered his promise when he said that he would protect her from everything and make her secure.

Taking a deep breath, Amber withdrew all of her emotions. After all, this wasn't the best time to think about this.

She got to get out of here, go back to her apartment and call Jared about this matter while Oller was deep in his thought.

While examining Oller, Amber took some steps back and wanted to turn around and just run when she was some distance apart from him.

Hf she just ran away now, she might alert Oller and she would have to chance to leave.

Amber closed her eyes and stepped back. She then worked on her breath and told her not to be nervous.

She got to remain calm, or she might make some mistakes if she was too nervous.

However, to her surprise, Oller came around before she can make any errors.

Oller immediately sensed Amber's intention when she stepped back and got serious, "You want to run away?"

Seeing that her plan was busted, Amber turned around and just raced to the apartment without thinking about anything else.

Oller went to chase her automatically.

However, at this time, a deep middle-aged voice suddenly sounded, "Oller, stop."

Oller's face changed noticeably when he heard the voice and immediately stopped.

He then turned around and made a bow respectfully, "Boss."

It was Connor.

Amber naturally heard Oller's greeting and realized who was here and stopped subconsciously.

Connor was here in person!

Amber was taken aback.

Was he here because he can't wait her to show up and got impatient?

While Amber was thinking about this, his voice once again sounded with a touch of warmth and was unlike Oller's coldness, "Ms. Reed, right? Can I have a word with you? Rest assured. I won't do anything to you"

Amber compressed her lips and didn't respond.

She seemed to be mulling over this.

She knew that she should just go into the apartment without heeding him and kept her safe from a realistic view, but deep down, she wanted to stay.

She wanted to say what Connor was really like. She was doing this not only for herself but also for Jared.

Amber then took a breath and made up her mind.

She then slowly turned around and finally saw the renowned master of the Stockert Family. She was actually taken aback.

Was this Connor?

She hadn't met him before and according to the description of Jared and York regarding his ways of doing things, she pictured him to be a talk rugged-faced man who looked like a bad-ass. He would be the infamous gangster in the movie and always looked in the film with a cigar in his hand. He would be quite moody and would get irritated at any time and want to kill someone.

However, the Connor in front of her was nothing like the Connor she had in her mind and was completely to her surprise.

Connor should be in his fifties, but he looked just over thirty and was well-maintained. What's more, he looked gentle and decent with his light white Tang suit on. His hair was immaculate and was constantly wearing a smile that didn't look like a master of a prestigious family who was always occupied with a million things.

He didn't have any domineering vibe that a master was thought to possess. Conversely, he looked like a gentle scholar or an artist.

He looked really young and coupled with his dashing face and benign temperament, nobody would see him as a calculating man who can bring himself to do anything.

This man's appearance was his biggest facade.

Was this the man that Jared's mother was deeply in love with?

No wonder she would be head over heels with him. Every woman would be bewitched by him with his looks and vibe.

He must be the sweetheart that every woman cherished deep down just like a woman would do to a man.

This Connor must be wooed by every girl back when he was at school with his sweet temperament and handsome face.

She was really surprised by Connor's appearance which was nothing like she had imagined before.

Seeing that Amber was spacing out while staring at him, Connor rubbed the imperial green thumb ring in his hand and got a scheming.

The calculating impression fled past his face and he remained gentle, "What's wrong? Ms. Reed feels like I am not like what you heard, right?"

Amber didn't expect him to read her thought and widened her eyes in surprise.

Connor's smile was as sweet as his voice.

"This is pretty common. A lot of people would have the same look when they first met me, so I don't have to ask what you are thinking about.”
