Chapter 1126: Army tank
"I’m the one who stole the money, Ivy. But I’m not giving it back."
For a second, Ivy was rendered speechless. She needed a moment to wrap her head around Dominic’s blunt and short answer. Well, he did say this job would challenge her moral integrity.
"..." Ivy opened and closed her mouth, shrugging. "Okay."
She instinctively looked at Axel when the latter cast her a judgemental look. "What?"
"Nothing."
"Gosh." Ivy massaged her temple, not expecting this ’dirty’ secret so soon. "Just to be clear, this isn’t the taxpayer’s money, right? Because if it is, I would be very amazed that you stole money from the people even before you took your post. I’m being sarcastic."
"It’s Hera’s," Dominic answered as he stopped again, pushing himself to stand up. He held onto the file and sauntered towards them. He sat down in the armchair and handed her the document.
"Read that one first. I have a meeting in an hour, and I want you to know a thing or two about it," he said while checking the food Axel ordered for them. "About the thieves who wanted to steal from the thief, that includes Tiger."
"Oh..." Ivy rocked her head as she already assumed that when she heard Hera’s name. But before she could say anything, she furrowed her brows at Dominic. "I thought you’re not eating lunch on Mondays?"
"Axel’s messing with you."
Ivy frowned and glared at Axel.
