The night wind chilled Lena, who tightened her coat and watched the updates on the Uber.
She suddenly regretted not leaving with Rachel. But now...
As she focused on her phone, an urgent sound of footsteps came from behind. Lena, sensing danger, swiftly moved aside.
A vivid red liquid with a strong scent of blood was splattered all around. Lena's legs were also splattered.
If she hadn't moved in time...
In shock, Lena looked back and saw a figure with a paint can, a black mask, and a duckbill cap rushing towards her.
"Who are you?" Lena took two steps back, pretending to remain composed as she faced the person.
"Just a few days, and you've already forgotten me?" The person, with a sinister smile, removed the mask, causing Lena's heart to skip a beat.
It was Debra.
Lena quickly glanced back but found that the security guards in the company lobby had gone upstairs for inspection, and the main entrance was tightly locked.
"You've gone mad! There's no need to escalate our conflicts." Lena spoke, glancing around the roadside, praying for a passerby to help her.
But unfortunately, no one was around.
Debra sneered, "Thanks to you, not only did I lose my job, but I also have a criminal record! Since I can't live, let's die together!"
With these words, she produced a dagger from somewhere and viciously stabbed Lena!
At that moment, a swift figure appeared behind her, kicking her to the ground.
"Are you okay?" Gideon breathed a sigh of relief after assessing Lena's condition and ensuring she only had a disheveled appearance.
