Elliot quickly called Neil, “My wife and I were on our way to the airport when we were
apparently involved in a deliberate collision. I’m sending you our location. Arrange for an investigation team to cover and make it fast.”
As he hung up the phone and sent the location to Neil, the rear compartment of the truck suddenly opened, and a group of men wielding clubs and wearing masks émerged, menacingly advancing toward Sheena and Elliot.
A fight broke out immediately, with two against forty.
The situation was chaotic.
Sheena and Elliot, both experienced in such situations, remained calm. However, with too many people and no suitable weapons, they knew they could not keep fighting for long.
Elliot shielded Sheena, saying, “These people seem to be specifically targeting you. You can’t fight for long, and you should leave first. I’ll stay behind and hold them off.”
Sheena refused, saying, “If we’re leaving, we’re leaving together. I absolutely won’t leave you behind.”
Her determination was apparent as she shook off Elliot’s hand, swiftly kicking off her hindering high heels and dashing barefoot into the fight.

Sheena fought alone against ten men, and she went all out with her attacks.
Reluctantly, Elliot joined the fight, occasionally checking on Sheena’s situation and lending
a hand when necessary.
The intense street fight raged on for a full five minutes, leaving moaning and writhing
masked men scattered across the ground.
The formidable fighting skills of the duo quickly turned the tide in their favor as their opponents reduced with each passing moment.
However, just as victory seemed within reach, a loud gunshot rang out, and amidst the
chaos, Sheena was struck in the arm.
With a muffled groan, blood gushed from her wound, causing unbearable pain to course through her body.
Weakened by the injury, her reaction tslowed by two seconds, which was critical in-
such a situation, leaving her vulnerable to a heavy blow to the back of her head from one
of their opponents.
“Nana!”
Sheena staggered forward, falling onto Elliot’s back before managing to steady herself.
Turning to shield her, Elliot pulled her into his arms, his dark eyes flashing with fury.
“How dare you hurt her! None of you will walk away today,” Elliot growled menacingly.
His demeanor shifted into that of a raging lion, and his eyes glinted with a bloodthirsty intensity.
Dizzy and disoriented, Sheena could only cling to him for support as her vision slowly darkened.
To prevent further sneak attacks, Elliot covered Sheena tightly.
Nonetheless, protecting her while outnumbered and preventing any hidden threats would be an almost impossible task.
Just as the situation appeared dire with Sheena’s injury, the piercing wail of sirens filled
the air.
