Katie's teeth chattered in terror. "Mr. Maxwell, rest assured I am not lying to you. Absolutely not!"

Lorenzo nudged Katie's chin with the muzzle of his gun. "Come on, darling. Tell me." His voice sounded so gentle. But a fatal threat always accompanied his gentleness.

Katie stammered, "She... She is in Suite 8019 on the eighth floor. I... I had someone confirm and lock it personally. It can't be wrong."

“Okay, that's good. If I find her, you'll definitely get a reward, darling. Which part of this man do you like? His eyes? His Lips? Hmm... Perhaps his sexy Adam's apple? Whatever you like, I'll cut it off and give it to you as a thank-you gift. How about that?"

Katie was rendered speechless. She felt nauseous upon hearing Lorenzo's words. She prided herself on being as heartless as a murderer. But compared to Lorenzo, she was nothing. He seemed to find joy in killing.

When Lorenzo saw Katie's terrified expression, he stood up with satisfaction and ordered his men, "Detonate the explosives on the west window. Since their special forces touched our Shadows, it's only right we return the favor with a little gift. Keep an eye on these two. I'll go meet that dear lady."

As he spoke, Lorenzo's gaze fell on Mitchel. Mitchel's expression was still unreadable, leaving him uncertain whether it was a deep disguise or indifference. Once Raegan was captured, would Mitchel remain this calm? Lorenzo smirked, find the situation amusingly.

As Lorenzo left with his gun, a thunderous explosion was heard from the southwest direction of the International Banquet Center.

A ball of fire soared in the sky and thick black smoke billowed from the southwest part of the building. The smell of sulfur filled the entire street.

The special forces below immediately ducked and retreated to a safe area. They understood this was a warning from Lorenzo's men upstairs.

If they dared to get close, the entire building would be blown up.

While swirling smoke filled the air, Matteo found one of the special forces captains and said, “I can contact someone inside. But I need to see the commander of this operation first."

After verifying Matteo's identity, the captain informed his superior.

The commander of this operation soon replied, "Bring him in."

The captain escorted Matteo to a makeshift command center. "Go on in."

Inside, a middle-aged man in his forties greeted Matteo. "You said you could contact someone inside? What do you mean?"

"Hello, Commander. There's a jammer installed inside. But I just found out through the GPS that my boss' wife is also inside the building."

The commander looked puzzled. "Your boss' wife?"

Matteo clarified, "It's my boss's ex-wife."

The commander questioned, “We've already evacuated all unrelated personnel from the building. How is she still inside?"
