Chapter: 414

The man's irritation at the delay caused by Norah was evident.

Ordinarily, they would have been nearing the East Zone by now, but her request for a break disrupted their progress.

Norah gestured toward the abandoned building. "I need to take a break.

Would you mind accompanying me?"

The feigned fear reflected in Norah's eyes triggered Jack's associates' protective instincts, prompting them to offer their support and assurance.

“Of course, we'll accompany you."

“Hey, this lady invited us to go with her. It would be impolite to refuse, wouldn't it?"

“Ha, count me in. I'll join you."

Her statements were interpreted as an invitation.

What may transpire between men and a seemingly weak woman near the abandoned building? The man appeared to have thought about this.

Gazing at Norah's lovely face, he merely waved his hand. “I'll accompany you."

“No, your presence alone won't suffice." Norah's demeanor remained indifferent as she coldly observed them. She vowed to have these four men meet their miserable ends today.

“I see impatience has gotten the better of you, huh? Woman." A flicker of malice crossed the man's face briefly. "You'll learn soon enough. Let's go. She desires our company, and we'll oblige."

The four men allowed Norah to take the lead as they encircled her, advancing toward the center of the incomplete structure.

A black car pulled up about a hundred meters from the motorcycle.

Two figures inside eagerly readied themselves for action.

"This is it."

"I'll handle three, you handle two. Ready?"

The man in the passenger seat loaded bullets into the rifle resting on the back seat. With rifle in hand, he was the first to step out of the car.

The half-finished building loomed ahead, its skeletal frame casting eerie shadows even in the afternoon sun.

One of Jack's crew rubbed his arms. "Why does it feel like a chill the moment we step in?"

As they ventured further, silence descended, the distant hum of traffic fading into nothingness.

Norah listened intently, detecting no presence apart from their group.

The man turned to Norah, a lecherous grin on his face. "Hey, pretty thing, this whole thing's just an excuse, right? Your real purpose is to have some fun with us, isn't it? I'll make sure you're satisfied.
