Take My Breath Away

Matthew knew Leon was Colman's best friend, so he thought it strange when he heard they had a fight. "Okay. What for?" he asked.

Colman stopped, tilted his head and thought for a bit before he answered, "I stole his girlfriend." Matthew's face darkened.

"You haven't seen her, Dad. Her name's Amber, and she seems like a really nice girl. I'm sure her and Mom will get along great," Colman said, hinting he was going to marry this girl.

Matthew was at a loss whether to cry or to laugh. "Last I checked, you had no shortage of women. Am I wrong?" he asked his son. He didn't understand why his son would poach his best friend's girlfriend.

"No," Colman answered, scratching the back of his head. He turned around and gave Matthew a smile. "But Amber's different.

We are destined to be together." 'Couldn't Leon at least break a bone or two of Colman? Give him something to think about?' Matthew thought to himself.

Over summer vacation, Colman called Amber a couple times, but she never returned his calls. Not even a text. He decided to leave well enough alone and not go to her house.

After summer vacation, Amber graduated from high school. Her grades were good enough to get into the university. She figured this was a good investment in her future.

There were many students from rich families attending the university, and there were also straight-A students like Amber, who hailed from humbler origins.

What she didn't know was a rich sophomore quickly developed a crush on her. He drove a Koenigsegg CCXR Trevita, a car worth five mil easy. The next day the love-struck student filled his trunk with red roses, making a high-profile confession to her in front of everyone.

Amber hated being made a spectacle of, so she left him there, to the disappointment of the crowd.

But the rich man's friends blocked her way and stopped her from going anywhere.

Amber had to turn around and tell the man, "Sorry, I don't like you. I'm here to study, not date the first rich guy who comes along."

It was embarrassing for the young man, who was quite taken with her. His face turned livid. When he was about to lose his temper, a silver gray luxury car roared towards them.

The silver gray luxury car zoomed over to her at high speed. The throng dispersed when he showed he had no intention of stopping. Finally, someone exclaimed, "Damn it! Isn't that Colman's car? Get out of the way!"

When they heard it was Colman, they made way for him.

Colman's La Voiture Noire pulled up behind the man's five-million-dollar luxury car. Colman was a skilled driver, stopping just short of the other man's vehicle—a distan 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

the time.

Colman was really a strange man. When everyone in the city heard that Amber was the future daughter-in-law of the Huo family, he didn't pay much attention to her. He never came to visit.

Of course, there was no other woman who could sit in the passenger seat of Colman's car anymore.

Even Amber wondered if it were a dream that Colman had taken her to the Huo family home. It was not until Erica came to visit that she realized she had really met Colman's mom.

Since Amber had something to do with the Huo family, all the drama that came with that position was hers now.

During her three years in college, Colman always treated her however he wanted and wouldn't let her turn him down.

He founded a game company and developed games. The company turned a profit in no time.

It was Colman who arranged for Amber to study abroad. She had to go. If she didn't go, he swore he would marry her right there and then.

Then he went to convince the members of Amber's family to let her do this. In the end, she was forced to agree to study abroad.

The night before she left, Colman took Amber to the high school she had attended before.

"Didn't you always want to talk about our relationship? Well, I'm free today," Colman said. Actually, it was not that he didn't have time until today. He was afraid that once they had a serious talk, they would break up.

After all, he walked into her life and basically directed it the way he wanted to go. He didn't care about her opinion at all.

But today, they had to talk. If Amber liked him, he would be good to her as always. If she didn't like him, then he would send his beloved girl to the best university abroad so she would have a bright future. He would be relieved to let her go.
