The rustling of footsteps fell on her ears. Realizing something was wrong, Ariana stumbled toward the area where the masked man had been lying on the floor. However, he was no longer there.

ALL she could feel on the floor was the residual warmth of his body. The man must have been saved and taken away by his subordinate through the other exit in the room!

Ariana grew anxious and angry. This freak was quite cunning and even had a backup plan. But it was too late to chase after him.

In the darkness, her heart beat faster with each passing second.

She leaned against the chair, breathing heavily, her forehead soaked in sweat. She did her best to calm herself down, but the surrounding darkness didn't help.
