Chapter 735

The kidnappers were down before they even knew what hit them.

Maja was standing next to lan, and she felt sick to her stomach watching the scene unfold.

She never thought she’d be caught up in something like this.

She always thought those cop movies were all smoke and mirrors. But now, it was clear as day that there was no such thing as a peaceful life. It was these guys in blue busting their butts in silence that kept them safe.

lan was briefing the cops, “There are about a dozen more on the first floor.”

No sooner had he said that than Maja wanted to check on the tattooed guy.

But before she could take a step, lan pulled her back.

“Watch it!”

In the elevator, the tattooed man, gasping for his last breath, let off a shot.

Maja was pushed to the ground by lan, and the bullet grazed his cheek, leaving a thin trail of blood.
