Sienna Quinn’s voice was chillingly calm, making it sound like she was talking about soone else’s life.
Axel Yates obediently beca her audience, listening to things that Sienna had never told anyone before, not even Felix Orwell, who only knew she returned to deal with Vera Yates and Miles Grant.
But no one knew about the car accident five years ago.
What she wanted to reclaim was not only the sins of her previous life, but also the lives of her parents. The murderer must pay the price; why should they live well?
"My parents are buried underground, long since turned into a handful of yellow earth, yet the culprit still roams free." Her pale, delicate hand clenched tightly, her pupils filled with undisguised anger.
How could she not avenge the murder of her parents?
Axel Yates stared blankly at Sienna, not expecting that they shared such a similar experience.
"So... what do you plan to do?"
"Lanting won’t achieve anything. The dead cannot co back to life, but they cannot die in vain." Sienna suddenly turned her head, her gaze resolutely eting Axel’s eyes.
"Despairing here accomplishes nothing. Instead of drinking in misery, it’s better to pull oneself together and seek justice for my parents."
Axel Yates stared blankly at Sienna. Though seemingly frail and delicate, like she could be knocked over by the wind at any mont, she still appeared tall and mighty, radiating an unyielding spirit from within.
It seed that no matter what happened, Sienna would not be defeated.
Half an hour later, Sienna sat in the car downstairs, softly humming a tune, appearing to be in good spirits, yet her profound eyes betrayed her complex emotions.
The tune was interrupted halfway as she suddenly lowered her head, her fingers gripping the steering wheel turning pale, veins bulging on the back of her hand.
Tom Quinn, Amanda Warren, both of you will pay the price.
Axel Yates tily opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat, taking a deep breath. Once he opened his eyes again, the previous emptiness disappeared, replaced by his usual gentle and charming deanor.
"In the days I’ve been away, nothing major happened in the company, right?" The man smiled warmly at Sienna, knowing that as long as she was there, there was no problem that couldn’t be solved.
Leaving things to Sienna put him at ease.
Sienna smiled lightly, nodding continuously as she said, "Of course, have you forgotten who’s managing things for you? I think it’s ti for you to give a raise."
Axel Yates chuckled, the sound of laughter clearing away all the gloom, just as Sienna said. He needed to brace up so that those who erred in the past could face due consequences.
Staying in perpetual despair was pointless.!
Seeing Axel Yates finally smile, a knowing smile spread across Sienna’s face too, her white teeth showing, her unusually bright eyes curving into a beautiful arc.
In that mont, Sienna seed like a glowing goddess, her smile soothing Axel’s wounded heart.
With a sudden forward movent, he enveloped Sienna’s petite figure into his embrace.
Burying his head on her shoulder, inhaling the fragrance of her hair, his restless heart slowly cald down, leaving him satisfied as he took deep breaths. Sienna, like a tranquilizer, dispelled all his negative emotions.
Sienna’s body suddenly stiffened, her pretty face twitching slightly, her originally fine face looking slightly odd. Looking at the woman before him, he opened and closed his mouth several tis, but after much contemplation, he gently patted Axel’s back.
"Everything will pass. Evil will be punished; believe that the universe has its way of delivering justice."
Axel Yates released Sienna, looking at her exquisite face, feeling his heart flutter for the first ti—sothing he had never felt before. Staring at the woman before him, he opened and closed his mouth several tis, finally swallowing back the words he wanted to say.
Axel Yates smiled gently and said, "If it weren’t for you, I don’t know how long it would’ve taken to co out of this, but this matter..."
"Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone." Sienna smiled lightly, her warmth soothing Axel’s heart.
Sienna personally drove Axel Yates back to the company, and within just half an hour, his presence at the company was known to all the board mbers.
It caused an imdiate sensation.
Inside the Yates Group conference room.
Hector Warren looked displeased, while Chloe Langley played with her hair, her red-painted nails twirling around her locks, a smile playing on her lips.
Sean Carter sat at the head of the table, looking displeased, anger visible in his slightly squinting eyes. Originally, Sienna was supposed to have him conduct the eting with these two to discuss tomorrow’s final eting with HR Group.
But the two of them simply refused to cooperate.
"When will President Quinn arrive?" Hector Warren looked displeased. Today was the final eting, yet Sienna hadn’t shown up—was she really taking advantage of Axel Yates’ absence to slack off?
"Do we really need President Quinn to get the eting started?" Sean Carter eyed these two, feeling that Hector Warren was just using his seniority, while Chloe Langley was exploiting the situation, making no comnts or opinions, the epito of a wily old rchant, achieving nothing significant but also avoiding any mistakes.
Sean Carter hadn’t expected such a person would hold a high position in Yates Group.
Hector Warren snorted coldly, looking at Sean Carter with mockery, "You’re just soone President Quinn hired. How could you not know her current situation? Do you really think we’re going to accept you without question?"
"Regardless, we’re the veterans of the company. We’ve seen your capability, but with President Quinn absent, what’s the point of holding this eting?"
Chloe Langley smiled alluringly, covering her mouth with her hand, her every movent exuding an enchanting charm.
Yet, Sean Carter wasn’t swayed, squinting his eyes at the two of them. They had been sitting here for over an hour, not uttering a word about tomorrow’s matters.
Sean Carter decided to confront them head-on today and see who would outlast whom.
Hector Warren took a deep breath, shrugged his shoulders, "Since President Quinn won’t be back for a while, I won’t wait around. Whenever she returns, she can summon for a eting."
Sean Carter: "You..."
Hector Warren and Chloe Langley exchanged glances, both standing up, not giving Sean Carter any face.
Just as they were about to leave, the office door slowly opened, and Sienna stepped in wearing black high heels, her slender legs showing no excess fat.
Her petite fra stood at the doorway, exuding an aura that made Hector Warren and Chloe Langley pause.
