Chapter 11
Was Sergio really here? Maeve carefully observed her surroundings and realized that she was trapped in a pitch-black room, with only a faint ray of moonlight seeping in from outside. From where she was, she could tell that it was an abandoned building!
"Minph! Mmph!" Maeve tried to call for help, but there was duct tape wrapped around her mouth.
Dumn it! Who on earth would want to kidnap her? Maeve desperately tried to free herself from the ropes, but the rope was made of nylon. She couldn't break free at all
No, she had to calm down. Maeve took a deep breath and carefully surveyed her surroundings. She had been hearing a ticking sound since a while ago. Suddenly, an alarm rang in Maeve's mind.
It was a

Marve immediately lay flat on her body and crawled toward the exit. Once she crawled out of the hollow roam, she found herself in the hallway of the building. She seemed to be about 20 floors above ground Marve knocked her head against a nearby pillar, hoping that Sergio and the others could hear the sound. Soon, Maeve heard the clacking sound of footsteps
This sound startled Marve. It didn't sound like it came from a man's leather shoes; it sounded like high heels.
Marve looked up and saw Clara walking toward her. Clara's expression was somewhat grim
As soon as Clara entered the abandoned building, she caught a glimpse of Marve upstairs. As long as Mave died, the position of Mrs. Brooks would become vacant. As long as Maeve died, there would be no obstacles between her and Sergio.
Clara walked toward Maeve, intending to push her down the stairs. Maeve realized that something was wrong, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.
Soon, Sergio also came upstairs. "Marvel"
When she heard Sergio's voice, Clara immediately squatted down to remove the tape from Marve's mouth. She said worriedly, "Maeve, are you okay? Let me get you out of this
Marve looked at Clara's worried expression, but a lingering doubt was left in her mind. Hopefully, what she had thought just now was wrong
"Why are you here?" Sergio frowned when he saw Clara. Then, he said, "Didn't I tell you to stay in the car?"
"I was worried about Maeve, so I also wanted to come here and look for her."Clara sounded aggrieved.
Marve said, "There's a bomb here. Where's Zion and Charlie? Tell them to run!"
"Let's go "Sergio lifted Maeve and shouted to Zion and Charlie, who were still looking around for Marve, "I found Maeve! Let's go!"
The both of them heard his voice and quickly went downstairs. Charlie asked, "How about Devon?
Zion said coldly, "Just leave him behind."
Charlie shook his head. It was too bad that Devon had provoked Zion this time around
Meanwhile, Clara followed behind Sergio. As she looked at Maeve being carried in Sergio's arms, she felt jealous.
Suddenly, Clara let out a shout. Sergio turned around to see that Clara's high heels had broken.
"Mr. Brooks, I'm sorry... but I think I've sprained my loot."
Marve looked at her and simply said, "Just put in down. I'm fine."
"Are you sure?" Sergio asked
