Chapter 2010 Amber stared in shock at Axel's confident expression. Her heart
was racing, and she thought she had misheard. In her 25 years of life, she was nothing but an accessory to Jameson-a disposable tool in his business dealings.
She had never owned anything to her name. To her surprise, Axel made the wild claim that he was her man. She replayed his words in her mind.
The Tsulu man cussed loudly and attempted to snatch the gun from the ground, only to be shot twice-one in the left shoulder and the other in his right leg. He howled in pain and fell onto his knees.
Seeing that, Amber snatched the man's
gun and held it firmly before aiming it at him. The man finally faltered and begged for mercy. It seemed that men, when naked, were in their most vulnerable state. He pleaded, "Don't! Don't shoot me!" "Spit it out! What are the drugs that Jameson Schmidt gave to you? Are they common drugs or narcotics?" Shedding off her usual coyness, Amber looked furious, like a beast that had been crouching in the dark. "What other nasty deals have you cut with him? Be honest!" Axel raised an amused brow at her move. Given his social standing, he could easily court the daughters of esteemed families or even the royal princess. However, none of them caught his eye, as he wasn't interested in a woman's background. Living with
cynicism, he never had much interest in romance.
All he wanted was an untethered, thrilling life.
At first, the challenge Amber posed to him gave him an adrenaline rush. As time passed, he found himself addicted to the sensation and thus had the urge to see her.
That night, his feelings reached a new level. In the past, he wasn't too bothered by Amber flirting and entertaining men. However, he could no longer tolerate it, which was why he showed up at the villa.
Despite being well aware of the dangers and troubles, he showed up for her.
"H-He claimed it was a common drug
-an imported, illegal drug!" Axel questioned the man, "Where was the drug imported from?" The man stammered, "1-1 have no idea! Trust me!" Amber glowered at the man and jabbed his forehead with the muzzle. She growled, "You really won't open up unless you're about to die. Right?" "I really have no idea. How could Mr.
Schmidt tell us distributors about the source of the drugs? He will take the lion's share of the profits while we take the scraps.
"But... I remember him taking a call when we were at the Millennium. I was too drunk to tune into the details, but I overheard him talking about some drugs or experiments..."
"Experiments?" Both Axel and Amber furrowed their brows.
"That's all I know. I'm clueless about the rest!" "Drugs? Experiments?" Axel's mind whirled. He recalled the horrifying scene of the man throwing himself at the car when Alyssa was sent to the hospital.
Piecing the puzzle, he let out a chilling laugh. "Looks like Jameson Schmidt is running some complicated operations here. The drugs are just a cover." Amber, a smart woman, quickly put together and processed the clues that she and Wesley had gathered. Soon, Jameson's scheme started to take shape in her mind.
They were interrupted by a series of
footsteps echoing in the corridor. They must have been the Tsulu man's guards who came to help after hearing the gunshots.
The man shrewdly yelled at the top of his lungs, "Guys, help me! There's an intruder! Help!" Axel might appear calm, but a storm was brewing in his eyes. He loaded his gun and was ready to shoot the man, but Amber was ahead of him. She shot him in the head without hesitation.
Her dead victim, mouth open in a scowl, collapsed face-first onto the floor.
Axel felt his heart drumming as he stared at Amber's sweaty face. She said to him, "This guy won't offer us any more useful information. There's no point keeping him around."
Her hands trembled violently, perhaps from the side effects of the drugs or because it was her first time takinga- life. Even her voice was shaking.
"There will be serious consequences if Jameson Schmidt learns about the murder." "You're right. Jameson Schmidt will not spare you," Axel replied flatly.

Axel and Amber aimed their guns at the same time, as if they could read each
