Mariel's hair was disheveled, and she looked both embarrassed and frightened.

As soon as she woke up from the shock, Walter quickly brandished a knife and stepped out of the van.

When Anthony and several traffic cops saw this, they immediately stopped and got out of the car.

Walter, finally regaining some control, let out a cruel laugh and said through clenched teeth, "Don't come over here or I'll slit this woman's throat right now!"

When several traffic policemen saw how crazy he was, they quickly said, "Let's not resort to violence, sir. We can discuss your demands."

Walter's laughter became more sinister, his expression distorted with madness. "You retreat now, then we will negotiate!"

Anthony, standing with the police, hesitated for a moment, afraid that any sudden movement might endanger Mariel.

When Walter saw Anthony take a step forward, he pressed the knife against Mariel's neck, causing her to wince in pain. His voice trembled as he warned, "I said back off!"

Seeing Walter's growing agitation, Anthony slowly backed away, his eyes fixed on Mariel, who had gone from fierce to pale and vulnerable.
