From the rearview mirror, Maria saw another two cars behind her.
Obviously, this whole thing had been planned meticulously, but she wasn't sure who was behind all this.
One of the men approached the Porsche. Maria quickly took out a dagger from the hidden compartment beside the driver's seat and stashed it in the seam of her clothes.
Then she quickly took out her phone to call for help, but just as she unlocked the screen, her phone died.
Maria stared at the dead screen, speechless. Out of all the times to run out of battery, the phone chose now to screw her over!
Just then, the men reached the side of the car and knocked on the window.
Maria warily lowered the window but put on a charming smile. "Are you guys here for me?"
There were about thirteen men standing outside, each one carrying a weapon.
Seeing the woman's enchanting smile, the man in the lead was slightly stunned, softening his fierce features. "Are you Maria Song?" he asked.
"Yes, who wants to see me?"
A man next to the leader saw how distracted he was and hissed, "Raymond, snap out of it!"
The man called Raymond suddenly came back to his senses and wore a fierce expression again. "Get out of the car! Otherwise, I'll ask my men to smash it!" "No, please don't. This is a limited edition model and is quite expensive. Let's just talk it out." Summer had told her that James asked her to buy a cheap car to let her practice driving.
However, the cheap car in James' eyes was someone else's luxury. This car in particular cost five million and eight hundred thousand dollars.
Maria opened the door and got out.
Under the dim streetlight, the woman straightened her clothing while cautiously eyeing the men surrounding her. Then, she heard someone swallow loudly from behind her.
"Raymond, can you let us have a taste of her first before sending her away?"
"Yes, yes. I have never seen such a beautiful woman in my life."
Raymond thought for a while. "Okay, fine." But not until he had a taste of her first. "Take her away!" he barked.
At his command, several men approached Maria.
What a group of obscene men!
Before the men were able to grab hold of her, Maria threw a roundhouse kick, knocking down several men like dominoes.
Realizing this woman was not going down without a fight, Raymond touched the tip of his nose and said, "Fortunately, we have a trump card."
Five men in black suits stepped out of a car behind the Porsche.
The second Maria laid her eyes on them, she knew there was something about these men in black.
She quietly took out the dagger she had stowed away, threw away the scabbard, and stood in a defensive posture.
The men in black suits knew Kung Fu, so they each assumed their posts nearby, poised to strike at any moment.
The men were really good at fighting. At first, Maria was able to hold them off a little, but then she slowly felt the wound on her back taking a toll on her.
Just then, she saw a dagger blade flashing towards her heart.
Maria dodged quickly, sidestepping out of the way just in time. The dagger slashed at her coat, but fortunately, she was unscathed.
However, she knew she wouldn't be able to keep this up. She needed to find a way to escape.
But no matter where she turned, there was no window for escape. The men surrounded her, closing in on her tightly.
Just as she was growing desperate, a black car turned a corner and was steadily approaching their location. The man in the driver's seat frowned slightly when he saw the cars in the middle of the road, blocking his path.
He looked over at his rearview mirror, backing the car a few meters to turn around and leave. Just as he was U-turning, his car light illuminated a couple of figures on the road. One of those figures was a woman.
Her long, jet-black hair fluttered in the air as she moved.
The man was very familiar with that figure.
Realizing something, his expression darkened. The car, which was just about to U-turn, suddenly was put in forward gear.
Bang! The black car collided with one of the cars in the middle of the road, sending it flying to the side and out of the way.
