Lizbeth was mindlessly watching the show on the television. She had also turned on her diffuser and filled the house with a pleasant fragrance. The thought of Jared staying at her place was unnerving for her.
Knock, knock, knock...
Someone knocked on the door and Lizbeth thought it was Jared. “How thoughtless of Oliver! He should have come back with you since you don’t have the keys to my place. Thank goodness I am in. Otherwise, you would have been locked out!” she grumbled as she opened the door. Unexpectedly, it was not Jared at the door. Two men in suits were out there, and they did not look friendly.
One of them asked, “Are you Ms. Lizbeth Grange?”
“Yes, I am.” Lizbeth nodded.
“We are from the Jantz family. Mr. Jantz would like to invite you over to his place for a chat.” However, the man's action clearly showed it wasn't an invitation, as he had reached out to grab Lizbeth even before she could register what he had just said.
Lizbeth was shocked by his action and instinctively backed away from him before trying to close the door on them.
However, the men were quick and dashed into the house before she could close the door.
“This is trespassing! I am from the Department of Justice, so I know the laws very well. You have no right to barge in!” Lizbeth was angered and chided them.
However, her warning fell on deaf ears, and they attempted to get hold of her again.
Lizbeth swiftly avoided them and turned around to grab hold of one of the men’s wrists. Taking advantage of the momentum, she delivered a flying kick in the direction of the other man.
Unfortunately, that man was highly skilled. With a shoulder roll, he managed to avoid her kick and at the same time, reached out and got hold of her ankle. When he tugged on her leg, she was thrown off balance and fell heavily onto the ground.
The two men then grabbed her by her shoulders and lifted her off the ground.
“Let go of me, you jerks! Let go!" She made an attempt to struggle free but was no match to the two highly skilled men.
“Ms. Grange, if you do as we requested, we will not hurt you. However, if you try to fight back, then we cannot guarantee you will not be injured in the process,” one of the men coldly threatened her.
