Axel smirked. "I merely mentioned Josh''s name, and you''ve already deduced that I''m here for revenge.


    Not only did you ascertain my intention to avenge someone, but you also discerned that it''s Jonah I''m


    seeking vengeance for."


    Amber felt a rush of heat to her cheeks. She might be cunning in other respects, but in the presence of


    Axel, her mind seemed to go nk. It was as if she was walking straight into a trap.


    "I am Mr. Jameson''s employee. Regarding the matters involving the Schmidt Group, I—"


    Suddenly, Amber found herself silenced. This time, Axel was the one to cover her mouth.


    Simultaneously, they heard the footsteps of two ck-d bodyguards drawing near.


    "Hm? I thought I heard someone talking."


    The footsteps stopped next to the storage shelves.


    Amber''s forehead beaded with sweat, and her breaths grew shallow. She could feel her heart pounding


    in her chest.


    Yet, Axel''s gaze was calm. He moved his hand to the back of her head. He weaved his fingers in her


    hair and gently pressed her head against his chest.


    Miraculously, Amber felt her entire body rx at that moment. Her eyes fluttered close. It was as if she


    was the infiltrator who was being cornered.


    "Was there any sound? You probably misheard."


    "Hm... Maybe I did. To be frank, I''ve been quite tiredtely. Let''s go to the foyer to wee Mr.


    Jameson. He will be back soon!"


    The bodyguards then left in a hurry.


    Even after the bodyguards had left, Axel remained in the same position with Amber in his arms. Their


    breaths intertwined. Neither of them budged.


    "Josh came with a number of people today. Coupled with the staff members at The Millennium, you will


    probably be on the losing end no matter how skilled you are."


    Amber caught a whiff of tobo from the sleeve of his ck shirt. The tips of her ears blushed pink. "If


    you are here to take your revenge on Josh, I know of a safer method."


    Axel lowered his eyes to look at her. "What is it?"


    "Come with me."


    Amber deftly navigated through the area, skillfully evading all CCTV cameras. She led Axel to her own


    room.


    For now, this was the safest ce within The Millennium. She locked the door before darting into her


    own study.


    Axel followed her. Out of habit, he warily scanned every corner of the room.


    At the head of the king-sized bed was an array of cute plushies. There was a pink bunny, a yellow


    puppy, and a silly-looking ck and white penguin.


    Axel couldn''t help but feel astonished.


    She was a stunning woman, always enveloped in debauchery. He had assumed that she had piles of


    luxurious items in her room.


    That said, this aspect of hers was oddly simr to Alyssa''s, who loved martial arts since she was


    young.


    Soon after, Amber retrieved a brown envelope from the bottom-most drawer of her desk. She handed


    the envelope to Axel.


    He epted it with a doubtful expression. "What''s this?"


    "This was what Mr. Jameson ordered me to investigate. In the past few years, Josh had abused the


    charity education fund under the Schmidt Group. This envelope contains evidence of him forcing


    female recipients of the funds to engage in sex trades."


    Amber was worried that she''d run out of time. She was talking a mile a minute. "Many of the victims


    here were minors. Not only did he threaten them and make them give themselves up to those in power,


    but he himself also degraded these women.


    "I don''t have time to borate more. Take these back with you. You''ll understand once you see what''s


    in here."


    All at once, Axel felt a stab of anger in him. His eyes ran red. "Damn it! Another monster! The Schmidts


    really are a bunch of pigs! Josh—that son of a bitch. I will have him castrated and throw his nuts to the


    dogs!"


    "The Schmidt brothers are birds of the same feather. It is evident that Jameson is brutal. Josh,


    however, is more disgusting than his brother.


    "He is a downright hypocrite. He used charity and public service as a front while manipting those


    women to pave the way to his sess.


    "Take this back with you and look at the contents. You''ll be speechless when you see what''s inside.


    Each case will make you fly off the handle!"


    Amber stomped her feet furiously. She forgot that she had heels on. She lost her bnce and began to


    topple to the side.


    Axel''s reflex kicked in. Immediately, he wrapped his muscr arms around her waist to help her regain


    her bnce.


    "T-Thank you," Amber said softly. Her cheeks were flushed.N?velDrama.Org: owner of this content.
