Axel pushed open his office door. In there Edward had been waiting for her for the past fifteen years.
"This." Axel immediately handed Edward the brown envelope he was carrying.
Edward accepted it happily, then looked at what was special about the contents inside.
Edward read the lines on the HVS paper with a big smile.
"I was impressed reading it." Edward chuckles. He was more amazed.
"No need to praise me." Axel chuckled too.
"Mario was so naive. He thought no one would dare to expose his crimes." Edward's pout.
"In addition to complaining, you also swear too much at people. I advise you to be careful."
"You don't have to worry so much about me. Just relax."
"Yes. You have to sort this out before evening. You haven't forgotten what we have to do tonight, have you?" Axel said.
"I'll finish quickly," Edward said confidently.
"Anna is the main one after all, isn't she?" Edward said meaningfully.
Deg.
Axel suddenly felt a strong attack hit his chest. I don't know what that means, Axel himself doesn't know.
Axel noticed Edward's movements but there was nothing wrong. Everything is the same as usual. But for some reason his mind drifted to Edward's conversation with Anna at the restaurant this morning, to be more precise, Edward's declaration of love for Anna. Axel smiled faintly.
'Looks like my little Anna has grown up.' Axel thought to himself.
"Of course. She always comes first." Axel replied as the end of the conversation between the two.
***
Axel pressed the button on the phone on his desk to call his secretary.
"To my room now." Axel's orders were firm.
"Okay," Anna replied obediently.
Anna left her room to go to Axel's room. Anna was a little suspicious because Axel came late today, unlike usual. Even though he was the boss, he didn't like to be late. But today why did he come so late?
Fortunately, the meeting schedule is not in the morning hours.
Knock knock!
"Come in!" Axel exclaimed from inside. Anna opened the door to Axel's room and walked in.
"How can I help you, Sir?" Anna asked straight to the point.
"Anna, please arrange a schedule for me. Cancel the schedule until lunch." Axel said quickly.
"I'll arrange it. But do you have an emergency meeting that you have to cancel three client meetings?"
Axel looked at Anna, Axel thought hard whether he should tell Anna his plan?
Not. Anna shouldn't be in constant danger. Axel didn't want Anna to keep getting hurt for his sake. Axel suddenly remembered the fight in the basement that night.
"You took a beating during the fight last night, are you okay, Anna?" Axel asked concerned.
Anna frowned. "I'm fine, Sir. Thank you for your concern."
"Since you said so it shouldn't be anything serious."
Anna just nodded.
"You may return to your room, immediately arrange what I ordered earlier," Axel said firmly.
"I understand. Then I'll be allowed to return to my room." Goodbye Anna.
"Yes."
Axel replied simply. Then Anna came out without any words coming out of her mouth anymore let alone a rebuttal.

Edward got out of his car and started to walk into the building he was going to. Previously he had made an appointment with an oil project head who worked with the Yeesho company as well.
"Mr. Walker, our lord is waiting for you. Let me take you to Mr. Ramson's room," said Ramson's assistant, Director of the Diamond company.
"Okay, thank you," Edward replied. He followed the man from behind.
Knock knock!
The assistant knocked on the door.
"Come in!" Exclamation of people from within. The assistant came in to report to his boss.
"Mr. Walker has arrived, Sir." The assistant said to the point.
"Oh, please let Mr. Walker in." Ramson's reply sounded warm. It seemed that Edward's arrival was well received.
"Please, Sir." Edward nodded at the assistant, then entered Ramson's room.
The assistant turned around, closed the door, and left.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Ramson." Edward greeted politely. Ramson nodded.
"Good afternoon Mr. Walker, please have a seat." Ramson moved from his work chair and sat on the soft sofa in his study.
"Thank you." Edward then sat down on the sofa, he chose to sit across from Ramson. A small table is a boundary between the two.
"It is an honor that I have a visit from a great person from the Emperor Group."
"You are too flattering, Mr. Ramson."
Then Edward and Ramson exchanged light laughs.
"I didn't come here to disturb your precious time, I have something to tell you, Mr. Ramson." Edward went straight to the main objective.
"Yes, is the matter so urgent that Mr. Walker has to take care of this himself?"
"I think you'll understand once you read these data." Edward placed the brown envelope he had hidden under his coat on the table and handed it to Ramson.
Ramson slowly pulled the envelope. He was starting to get curious.
"What data is this?" Ramson asked, pulling the envelope off and pulling the data papers out of it.
"Please read and learn for yourself." Edward's words sounded intimidating. Ramson became more and more curious, he read quickly, checking the contents of the pages.
A look of surprise was evident on Ramson's face, then his expression turned angry.
"Can this data be verified, Mr. Walker?" asked Ramson furiously. His jaw hardened with anger.
"Do you doubt the Emperor Group's abilities, Mr. Ramson?" Edward replied with a sharp look.
"Of course, I don't doubt the Emperor Group's ability. It's just that in this project the Emperor Group and the Yeesho company seem to care about bigger profits. So it's not impossible if this effort is an alternative for you to get rid of the Yeesho company." Ramson said logically.
"Of course, Emperor wants big profits on every project, but Emperor won't go bankrupt if our profits are less than Yeesho. I came with good intentions. I'm not forcing you to believe it, but I think you should have an open mind." Edward.
"I've already conveyed the purpose of my arrival. I can not linger here, if there is nothing else to talk about I'll excuse myself." Edward stood up and held out his hand to shake Ramson's hand.
"Then let me study these data first while I gather the relevant evidence," said Ramson.
Ramson shook his hand back.
"Hopefully our cooperation goes well. Thank you for taking the time to come."
"No problem. Then I'll excuse myself."
"Please."

Edward drove his car at high speed. From the moment he left the Diamond building Edward realized he was being followed.
Something like this is bound to happen. Edward had predicted it. No matter how fast Edward drove his sports car, he still lost to the enemy who sent several cars to surround Edward.
Yes, Edward was under siege. Edward looked around, counting the number of enemies and estimating the enemy's strength.
Twenty people in black were waiting to throw their fists at Edward, their only target this time. Edward had finished planning, he finally got out of the car with confidence.
Edward looked at the enemies one by one, his eyes were very keen to see the strength of each one of his enemies. He had to finish at least five people in no more than fifteen minutes. A man who was the chairman shouted challenging Edward.
"Are you ready to die, Mr. Edward Walker?"
