LOGINShe laughed softly, seeming a little helpless. Raising her hand, she pressed between her brows. “Can you say something auspicious?”
Henry let out an “oh” and, a moment later, spat twice. “Even so, I still think you should not go.”
As a racing driver, he had dealt with the Tigers the longest. They had been rivals since the day he entered the circle.
For five or six years now, Tiger’s reputation had been rotten enough. More than rumors, Henry knew the man himself was far worse.
Because he understood exactly what kind of shameless and vicious person Tiger was, he feared Natalie would suffer.
It was not that he doubted her driving skills. He simply felt that his sister was too straightforward. Even if righteousness eventually prevailed, he did not want her to be hurt in the slightest.
“Enough.” Natalie turned her face aside. Her gaze was indifferent, her tone gentle. “Do not try to pers
“Don’t touch her.”With a swift reverse hook, Samuel knocked the gun out of the nearest person’s hand and sidestepped.Natalie suddenly felt the pressure around her neck disappear. In the blink of an eye, Alden was completely restrained by Samuel.The turn of events happened too fast, leaving everyone around frozen for a moment.“Let go of Mr. Alden,” Bianca shouted from behind the crowd, issuing orders. “Why aren’t you rushing to save Mr. Alden?”“Don’t come closer. Don’t move.” Alden struggled helplessly as the situation grew more chaotic. Taking advantage of the opening, Natalie and Samuel broke free and escaped cleanly.
Every sign indicated that the Sombra organization had dispatched more than five people to guard the goods.“Could it be that this place isn’t the delivery location?” the two spoke at the same time.“No.” Natalie frowned slightly as he pondered. “Alden’s reaction doesn’t look fabricated.”However, it was also a fact that the cargo ship had been delayed.“For now, all we can do is wait.”Inside the surveillance room, Alden continued standing guard. Natalie did not linger. After exchanging a few words with him, she found a place neither too close nor too far away to sit.It happened to be positioned between Bianca and
[But the people at the hospital said that Darius Brooks would be there tomorrow.]Natalie: [Go and wait there tomorrow. Check carefully whether it is really her.]After sending that message, she turned off her phone.Henry had already succeeded more than halfway, and the things she had been worried about did not happen. Up to this point, everything had gone relatively smoothly. What remained was only the matter of Darius Brooks and the current situation.The patrol continued until the final day. The sea remained unchanged, calm as ever, and the cargo ship that was supposed to arrive had still not appeared.Bianca suppressed his anger and walked into the monitoring room. “What exactly is going on?”
Several separate large screens in the surveillance room were all focused on the sea area.“Didn’t you mention that cargo ships would dock today?” Bianca pointed at the scattered, empty vessels on the screen. “Why is there no sign of them now?”This was exactly what everyone present was thinking.The boss rubbed his chin and let out a sigh. “This isn’t something we can control. All we can do is wait.”“If it drags on until the middle of the night, do we still have to wait?”“Yes.”Bianca knitted her brows. “We will only stay here for three days. Once the time is up, we leave.”
Natalie lifted her phone and took a picture of the car. The signal had not yet come back when, in the quiet garage, the sound of an engine suddenly echoed.Two straight beams of headlights cut through the darkness and reflected off the concrete pillars. Just as the car was about to drive inside, her gaze stiffened, and she retreated quickly.In Monarch’s garage, there was nowhere to hide except beneath the vehicle parked in the center.“Why did you bring me all the way to the garage?” A crisp, loud voice rang out suddenly.The car door opened, and a man and a woman stepped out.The man had refined features. Hearing the complaint, he gave a soft snort. “To broaden your horizons.”“Tch.” The woman clicked her tongue in disdain, her tone tinged with irritation. “It’s freezing in here. All the cars are parked outside anyway. Who would want to drive in here?”“Shut up.&rdquo
They did not head straight toward the coastal area. Instead, they chose another location. Before they could get close, voices drifted over from ahead.“New shipments are arriving in the next couple of days, so stay alert.”“A woman showed up today. Did Sombra get involved as well?”“Stop talking nonsense.”“.”The voices gradually faded. Natalie withdrew her gaze, turned to the man beside her, and spoke quietly. “They are talking about Bianca.”“Yeah,” he replied casually. His dark eyes remained fixed on something ahead. After a short while, he suddenly stood up.Catching her questioning look, Samuel moved his lips slightly and said softly, “Wait here. I’ll go inside and check.”“I’m going with you.” Natalie rose immediately.He glanced at her from the side. His gaze darkened a little, but he did not stop her.
