Loved You Once But He's My Forever

Chapter 420 How You Want to Die?

Taylor could've dodged, but he didn't. The teacup smashed against his shoulder, and though it didn't shatter, the scalding tea splashed onto his neck, instantly reddening the skin. Tea leaves clung to his clothes, and droplets kept dripping down. He knelt there, unmoving.

Yael's tall frame trembled uncontrollably as if he were utterly terrified of Amber.

Amber's gaze shifted to his face. Her voice was cold as she ordered, "Move."

Yael shook even harder, but he stubbornly stood in front of me. "Mom, I love her. Please don't hurt her."

"Love? Ha!" Amber scoffed with disdain, the sound dripping with contempt. She wasn't even pretending anymore-the woman I'd seen at the Dolton Residence was gone.

She lounged lazily on the sofa, one hand propping up her face while her eyes brimmed with scorn.

"If your late father knew both his sons had fallen for the daughter of our enemy, he'd claw his way out of the grave to teach you two a lesson."

Yael didn't back down. "You didn't oppose Taylor marrying Whitney. Why can't I love Chloe?"

With that, he took a few steps forward and knelt before Amber. "Mom, please, I'm begging you to let her go. I've never asked you for anything my whole life. But now, I love Chloe. Please spare her!" "Spare her?"

Amber let out a cold laugh. "Who do you think you are?"

She kicked Yael square in the chest without holding back. Watching her, I finally understood why Yael was so afraid of her.

Amber didn't see Yael or Taylor as her equals at all.

She leaned down slowly and placed a dagger in Yael's hand. "Not only will I not spare her, but I want you to kill her yourself."

"Mom!" Taylor's expression shifted slightly. "You promised me you wouldn't force Yael to kill anyone."

I knew it-Taylor had been shielding Yael all this time.

Perhaps Yael was the only clean-handed member of the Carlyns.

Whitney, hearing Amber's words, instinctively moved to stand beside me. She didn't say a word, but her face was grave, and her trembling fingertips gave her away.

It was clear that she, like Yael and Taylor, was deeply afraid of Amber. She just chose silence.
