Liam was slightly surprised. He did not expect the weak and child-like Amber to show such a tough side. He immediately put away the dagger and said firmly, "Don't joke around like that. Aren't you worried that I might actually take you as a hostage?"
Amber was very naive. Her eyes were pure and clear as she said, "I think it's worth it even if you hold me as a hostage in exchange for your beloved woman!"
"Silly child. You should know your worth." Liam would never use such an immoral tactic, even if he was left with no options.
He looked around. Although those two guards had been sent away, they were still following them from afar. All the exits were guarded too, so it would be practically impossible to save Joanna under the guards' strict monitoring.
