Winter rain continued to fall. Jessica wrapped herself tightly in her coat, sitting in the car.

She had been drinking heavily for several days, but today she abstained. It was a rare moment of sobriety.

Her face was pale. "Do I really have to go?"

"Our boss said so. Your staying here will put everyone in danger.

"If you get caught, your charges could add up to decades. Don't be ungrateful, Ms. Landon."

It was still early, so they were the only car on the road, speeding in the rain.

After some time, a black car suddenly appeared in the rearview mirror, following behind them. Jessica became alert.

"We're being followed! Is it the cops?"

The driver turned the steering wheel. "I'll shake them off."

He was skilled, but the other party was equally skilled. After several rounds, the driver still couldn't shake off the pursuer. Instead, they were overtaken. The other car blocked their way horizontally, forcing them to come to a halt.

The driver's heart sank.

"How could this happen? Mr. Hawkins said no one would interfere."

Jessica's face grew even uglier.
