The call ended, and Eric immediately ran out of the factory, not daring to waste a single second.The night wind carried the sharp, rusty smell of the industrial zone as it blew against his face and tossed his hair into disarray.He walked quickly toward his car while lowering his voice into the earpiece. "Sean, the kidnapper changed the location to the abandoned docks in the east side of the city.""Copy that. I'm bringing the team over now."Eric switched on the engine. The tires screeched against the gravel road.He glanced at his watch. It was 11:47 p.m. There were less than ten minutes before the kidnapper's 30-minute deadline.The docks on the east side of the city were even more desolate than the chemical plant. Sean's voice crackled through the earpiece. "Eric, our men are already in position at the docks.""Don't make any moves yet," Eric said as he switched off the engine.

His body was connected to multiple tubes, and his face was pale.Only the steady lines pulsing on the monitor proved he was still alive.The image of him holding her with blood at the corner of his mouth flashed before her eyes again.
