His memory flashed back to when his men had snatched the document case from Quinlyn’s arms. The seal was intact, the ropes neatly tied.

In his haste, he assumed a person fleeing in a panic wouldn’t have had time to tamper with the contents.

With no ability to scrutinize dozens of pages of formal contracts, he had simply burned them all at dawn upon hearing gunshots.

Never did he imagine Quinlyn would have secreted away the two most crucial pages.

Suddenly, Barrow lunged at Quinlyn with a roar, his handcuffs clanging against the chair.

Stanley, though startled, reacted instantly, delivering a powerful kick to Barrow’s chest, sending him crashing back into the chair.

Two police officers quickly pinned him down, but Barrow continued to roar in fury. “Quinlyn! If the others find out, they’ll never forgive you! You traitor of the borderlands!”

“Shut your mouth! Want another beating?” Stanley yelled, holding Quinlyn back.

‘Good grief, that guy’s tough. My leg went numb after that kick,’ he thought.

Quinlyn gently pushed Stanley aside, signaling she was fine, and walked firmly to stand before Barrow. Her eyes locked onto his. “I don’t belong to the borderlands, and I certainly don’t belong to criminals.”

She would never be one of them, no matter what.

With that, she turned and walked away, leaving Barrow’s desperate shouts echoing behind her. Those two pages meant he would soon face trial and spend the rest of his life in prison.

Outside the tent, Bennett and Donny both sighed with relief.
