Translator: 549690339

Although Maya Mitchell wasn’t as strikingly beautiful as Ruby Gregory, she was still quite attractive. Over the years, she had learned how to dress herself more stylishly, making her the frequent object of men’s gazes.

At first, she didn’t pay much attention to the two men, thinking they were just staring at her because they found her attractive.

However, when Maya arrived at the underground parking lot of the shopping mall, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of a man standing not far from her parking spot as she got out and locked her car.

Mitchell recognized the man as one of the occupants from the car without a license plate.

She had a strong impression of the man because of his unusual clothing and the winding scar on his left cheek.

The man appeared rather young, likely even a few years younger than her. He had a cigarette in his mouth and was nonchalantly blowing smoke. Noticing Maya’s gaze, he quickly looked away and began talking to his companion who remained seated in the car.

Mitchell grabbed her bag, locked her car, and walked quickly towards the elevator.

Before getting on the elevator, she glanced back at the blonde man and saw him still leaning on the car window, chatting with his companion. Without giving it much thought, she entered the elevator and went upstairs.

She soon put the incident out of her mind.

It was a cool autumn day in Ciawell, and the heating hadn’t been turned on yet. The shopping mall was warm and crowded, and Maya had already drank two bottles of water while shopping for clothes, which made the air feel even drier.

When she came out of a French women’s clothing store on the third floor, she noticed a restroom nearby and decided to use it.

The restroom was relatively quiet and empty. As she was about to leave, she happened to pass by a stairwell emergency exit.

The door to the stairwell was slightly ajar, and she heard a man’s voice talking on the phone.

“Don’t worry, we can definitely handle this… As soon as we have a chance to make a move, I’ll call you after we’ve grabbed her…”

Maya wouldn’t have paid much attention to the conversation, but she caught sight of that familiar blonde man through the crack in the stairwell door.

Maya left the restroom and continued shopping.

On the fifth floor of the mall, there was a boutique selling high-quality Korean fashion. Maya tried on several outfits and was happily admiring herself in the fitting room mirror when she spotted a familiar figure through the glass.

It was the blonde man, with another scruffy-looking guy beside him.

Even the most careless person would become more alert after repeatedly encountering the same individuals on the street and in the same mall. As someone who was naturally cautious, Maya immediately connected the dots to the conversation she had overheard in the restroom on the third floor.

Had they been talking about abducting her?

On the surface, Mitchell pretended to try on clothes, but her focus was entirely on the blonde man and his accomplice. She noticed that they had been standing outside her store the whole time, never leaving and never taking their eyes off her.

A shiver of foreboding crawled up her spine and settled in her heart.
