“Where’s the person?” asked the leader.
“In the hall. Her limbs are bound while her mouth is taped shut. There’s also a hood covering her head.” Imogen stood up. “Don’t worry. Now that she’s in your hands, you’ll get the money soon.”
Then, as she walked to the side, she spoke to one of the men. “Take me outside. I’ll pretend that I’ve escaped.”
Although the leader was somewhat startled, the prospect of a handsome reward convinced him to proceed boldly with the plan.
Since they had already kidnapped their intended target, he signaled to his subordinate, who then escorted Imogen outside. As soon as she stepped out, she exclaimed, “Shirley? Shirley! Are you okay?”
“Ugh!” At this moment, Shirley couldn’t see anything with her face covered and mouth taped shut. When she heard Imogen’s voice, she struggled to respond.
“Let her go. Let her go!” Imogen exclaimed. Right after she said those words, she was attacked, and the sound of punches landing on someone reverberated in the air. Soon, there was a sound of people fighting, followed by a shattering window.
Then, her voice came through. “Wait for me, Shirley. I’ll look for help to rescue you.”
Shirley heard the sound of the broken window and Imogen’s panicked escape. Shortly after, she also heard several men speaking.
“Sh*t. She escaped. How can you guys be so careless? Hurry, you idiots. Don’t let these two women escape!”
Imogen hailed a passing cab and headed toward the Royal Hotel. She had deliberately allowed the kidnappers to maim her hand so that she could explain to Zacharias that she had lost her ability to save Shirley, which was why she had to return for assistance.
After witnessing Imogen’s successful escape, Shirley breathed a sigh of relief. However, she had seen and experienced the skills of those men earlier, and it was evident that they were not ordinary thugs. The fact that Imogen could break free and escape was a surprise to Shirley, but thankfully, Imogen was able to flee.
