Chanter 27:
Taking advantage of the distraction, I used the hairpin I always carried to try and cut through the rope binding me.
Fortunately, the rope wasn’t too thick and my hairpin was sharp enough. In just a short while, I managed to cut through it. I didn’t dare waste even a second. Once I was free, I immediately bolted toward the exit
One of them noticed my movement and shouted. “Boss, she’s running!”
The driver, who was their leader, realized he had been tricked. Furious and humiliated, he roared, “Catch her! That damn woman dared to play me. Once I get my hands on her, I’ll make her regret it!“1⁄2
I ran with all my strength toward the main road, frantically waving at passing cars in an attempt to get one to stop. But cruelly, no one was willing to pull over for me.
Seeing that the thugs were closing in, I had no other choice. I dashed straight into the middle of the road, blocking the path of an approaching black car.!!
The car screeched to a halt just in time to avoid hitting me. Immediately after, a young man dressed d in a white suit stepped out, his face filled with irritation.
“Are you out of your mind? Are you trying to get yourself killed at this hour…” He paused abruptly when he saw my face.
His expression shifted to one of surprise. Did he know me?%
Seizing the opportunity, I rushed forward and clung to his arm, pleading desperately, “Sir, someone is trying to kill me. Please, help me.. I’m begging you.“}
The young man followed my gaze and saw the driver and the two thugs rushing toward me, cursing as they came to grab me
“You bitch! You think finding some man to help you means you can escape? Get over h
Before the driver could finish his sentence or lay a hand on me, the young man beside me suddenly kicked him to the ground.
Seeing their boss get taken down, the other two thugs lunged at him, but he effortlessly subdued them, leaving them sprawled on the pavement, their faces bruised and swollen.
In the end, the young man called the police for me. The driver and his two accomplices were all arrested and subjected to intense interrogation.
Under pressure, they finally confessed that the name of the mastermind behind it all was Maya &
At first, I had already suspected her. After all, I was new here and the only people I had grudges with were Maya and Elowen.!!
When the police asked me how I wanted to handle the case, I requested them to send me the recorded confession of the driver and the thugs. I planned to expose her crimes on the day of the competition, ensuring that she would never be able to compete again.
The police agreed and sent me the video before taking the driver and his accomplices to jal
After saving the video, I turned to the young man who had rescued me and sincerely thanked him
He simply waved his hand with a smile. “It’s nothing. No need to thank me.”
Then, as if something had crossed his mind, he took out his phone and held it out to me..
