“Okay, I’ll wait for you at the parking lot.”
After speaking, the man hung up.
Natalie placed the phone down and summoned Joyce. “Joyce, accompany me to collect a delivery.”
“Why? You can’t carry it?” she asked.
Natalie shook her head. “It’s not that. The delivery makes me feel uneasy.”
Then, she told Joyce about what happened.
After listening to her, Joyce thought that something was amiss too. Nodding, she said, “There’s definitely something fishy going on. Let’s go. I’ll accompany you to take a look.”
“Okay.” Natalie nodded.
She had the same thought too.
The delivery was simply too strange. As she was afraid that she would be in danger if she went alone, it was better if Joyce tagged along.
With an additional person with her, the possibility of her escaping was higher as well.
The two of them left the office and went to the parking lot.
Worried, Natalie asked Joyce to hide in a corner and keep an eye on her, while she contacted the deliveryman.
“Hello, I’m at the parking lot now. Where are you?” Raising her phone, Natalie glanced around to find him.
Soon, footsteps sounded behind her.
She spun around rapidly. However, before she could catch a clear glimpse of the person’s face, he raised a spray bottle.
All Natalie could see was the mist drifting toward her. After smelling something strange, she started to feel dizzy and her eyelids became heavier.
It was then that she knew that she had fallen into a trap.
Her body swayed. Unable to support herself anymore, she toppled backward.
The man who knocked her out immediately took a step forward. Before she fell onto the ground, he lifted her over his shoulder and strode toward a black car.
When Joyce witnessed this scene, she sprinted toward them anxiously. “Hey, what are you doing? Let go of Nat!”
The man stopped in his tracks, turned around and glanced at her. Smirking coldly, he raised his hand mid-air and signalled.
