How a Dying Woman Rewrote Her Epilogue

Chapter 806

Elodie kept her composure, eyes fixed on the sports car blocking the road.

By now, she was almost certain this was a deliberate interception.

"This isn't good," muttered her colleague beside her, a tall Black man who suddenly frowned. "I recognize the guy standing in front. He's a notorious boss in this area-connected to one of the Italian families."

Elodie's brow furrowed. There were more than enough men on the other side, and their exact motive was still unclear.

She couldn't shake the feeling that these people were more dangerous than the mortars they'd escaped earlier.

"We do," her colleague replied, "but if we go toe-to-toe with them... I don't like our chances."

Elodie got the message. There was little hope of getting away clean today.
