The van's door was left open, and Riley slumped into the seat. Her jaw dropped when she saw the workers she had encountered daily at the mall transform into fighters!
"What the -" Riley could not wrap her head around it.
The sports apparel sales personnel, the same young man who smiled at Riley every day when she would pass by the sports boutique, had grabbed one of the abductors' arms and thrust him up in the air, then onto the ground. Next, he landed a series of punches at the abductor!
Mr. Wesson, the mall administrator, the same man who accepted Adley's lease contract, had leaped in the air and threw himself at two of the kidnappers, taking them down to the ground. Then, he rolled his body forward and gracefully stood on his two feet. He suddenly delivered a powerful kick at another kidnapper with tattoos.
Then, there was the cleaning guy at the mall. This same guy who mopped the floors daily and always told Riley to watch her steps had joined in the fight. He had flipped his body, his feet landing on one of the kidnapper's frames. He used all his limbs to make various attacks Riley had only seen in movies!
'Are these people really mall workers?' Riley mused.
While she was in awe, the driver of the van panicked. He had attempted to drive away, but Max opened the car door and thrust his head against the driver!
"Oh, my god, Max!" Riley could not help but scream. She cringed at the head-to-head impact, but Max didn't look affected.
"Arrghh!" Max grunted as he yanked the driver out of the van. He threw him to the ground before shifting the gears to "Park."
Next, two men in black suits rushed to her. One offered his hand, saying, "Let's get out of here, Mrs. King."
It took a second for her mind to process the man's words, but she soon accepted his hand, and they hurriedly helped her out of the van.
The fight continued around her. The mall cleaner guy pointed to the mall entrance and said, "Into the mall, Mrs. King!"
Max, who had come forward with a beaten driver, urged the same, "You can go with them, Mrs. King. They are Clint's men."
"Okay, I'll see you soon," Adrian suggested.
"Adrian?" Riley asked. "Who are these men? Who is Max? I thought he was just... my driver."
There was a moment of silence before Adrian revealed, "Max is your lead bodyguard. He used to be part of the military's special forces."

Heartbeats later.
"She is fine. We need an ultrasound; there are no signs of bleeding. The pregnancy is still there, but please, Mr. King, have Riley take a rest after this. The situation must have stressed her a lot," Zia said to Adrian.
