"FUCK!" The man cursed out loud.
He was shocked by the pain but more shocked by how savage and dangerous this woman was. He expected her to be a ek woman who wouldn’t do anything, and this enraged him even more.
"YOU BITCH!"
The man flung Kate back into the apartnt. Kate hit the apartnt floor face-first and was positive that she got bruised.
"Ugh!" Kate grimaced in pain, but she was glad that she could cover her stomach during the fall, so her baby should be fine.
She tried to stand up and saw the burly man pull the screwdriver from his stomach. He gritted his teeth, trying to endure the pain while glaring at Kate.
"You are more annoying than I thought, Mrs. Woods. I’m not going to spare you any more. I doubt I can bring you to Marlon alive if you keep struggling like this," the burly man said.
Kate mustered all of her strength to get up and ran to the kitchen.
The man couldn’t run anymore, not with the open wound in his stomach. But he was positive that Kate wouldn’t be able to run away, especially not with her stamina.
"Don’t play with , Mrs. Woods. I’m not a patient man!" the burly man yelled as he entered the kitchen.
He saw Kate holding a frying pan as a weapon comically, it was so funny and ridiculous, "Hahah! Do you really think that you can beat with that? Are you stupid or desperate?"
"Let’s see if I’m desperate enough after I do this—" Kate turned off the switch so the burly man couldn’t read her attack. But unlike the storage, which was completely dark, the kitchen still had a window and ventilation, so the light from the outside was enough to give a glimpse of the pregnant woman’s sluggish movent.
The burly man scoffed and grabbed Kate’s wrist when she tried to smash the pan into his head.
"I finally got you, Katherine Woods. Now it’s ti for to play with you," the man said.
"Not yet!" Kate took out the knife she secretly equipped with her other hand and thrust it into the man’s chest.
But the man saw it beforehand, quickly released Kate’s hand, and jumped back, barely missing the fatal stab wound.
"Ah!" Kate lost her balance and fell to the floor after the failed attack. She tried to get up imdiately, but the man grabbed her hair and pulled her up.
"AHH!" Kate scread when her hair was yanked. She tried to struggle but to no avail. The burly man already understood all the tricks she had.
So when Kate was about to use the sa knife to attack him again, he grabbed her wrist and clenched it as hard as he could until Kate dropped the knife.
Now, she was completely powerless against this man.
The man grinned when he saw the weak beauty in his rcy, "You punched and stabbed , so I want to make sure I get the compensation I want before I give you up to Marlon."

Mai was worried after the call with her Boss ended abruptly. She quickly rushed to the front door and opened it.
She followed what Mrs. Woods told her to do. She checked her surroundings, and after she made sure there was nobody in the corridor, she went out.
Mai ran towards Mrs. Woods’ apartnt and tried to open the door.
Unfortunately, it was locked, and she had no access key.
The one that had it was Michael, and the receptionist was in the lobby, so she rushed with the ergency stair instead of using the elevator in fear that she might get caught by Marlon’s n on her way.
As she descended one floor below, she heard a ruckus on the floor, so she ca to check for a bit.
As she walked out of the ergency door, she was faced with a man wearing all black, about ten from her. He pointed a gun toward her and shot imdiately.
Mai froze on the spot and thought it was her end when she heard a man yell, "MAI!"
Michael quickly grabbed Mai’s hand and yanked her to his side, and the bullet barely missed her.
"Are you alright?" Michael asked as he hugged Mai tightly.
It took a while for Mai to register what just happened.
Michael’s heartbeat was racing, and he was covered in sweat. He was still wearing his suit as his body trembled because of adrenaline.
Mai’s eyes widened, and she said, "Mrs. Woods! She is attacked by Marlon’s man! Please save her!"
"I can’t. You see those three n?" Michael pointed at three n who stood about ten to fifteen away from them. "They are all Marlon’s n; they are trying to kill , and I’ve been fighting against them for the past thirty minutes."
One of those n aid his silencer gun toward Michael again and shot without hesitation.
Michael swiftly ducked while holding Mai and dodged the bullet without a problem.
"Listen, I can’t help Kate right now, so I want you to help her instead," Michael said. He fished the access card to Kate’s apartnt out of his chest pocket and handed it to Mai.
"M—? But I—"
Another bullet was shot in Michael’s direction, and the battle-hardened soldier tilted his head to avoid it.
"You’re the only one I can trust right now, Mai. Please help Kate. She is in danger right now," Michael pleaded.
Mai looked at Michael with worry in her eyes. She had a traumatic experience fighting against a man much stronger and bigger than her, but when she heard that Kate was in danger, she mustered her courage and pocketed the access key.
"I got it. I will help her, but what about you? You have to fight three n with guns at once."
"? Hahah!" Michael looked at those n with bloodshot eyes. "I can’t wait to break their necks for daring to attack you and Kate."
"Now go and save Kate. I can handle this myself."
Mai clenched her fist and left using the ergency door again. She rushed back to her floor to help Mrs. Woods.
"Wait for , Ma’am!"
...
Michael faced three burly n with silencer guns in their hands. He cracked his knuckles and said, "You are all so clumsy using those guns. I bet you didn’t know that you’ve run out of ammo."
The man tried to shoot Michael again, but he was right. Their guns already ran out of ammo.
Michael scoffed. He clenched his fist and readied himself for a three versus one fight.
"I will send your heads to that old crook."
