It all happened so fast that even if the manager wanted to call security, it would have been too late.

Two burly bodyguards lunged at Miranda. Carter was about to step in and help when he saw it happen. Just as the first bodyguard was about to grab Miranda's shoulder, her hand shot out, snatching his wrist with lightning speed.

A sharp crack echoed through the room, followed by the bodyguard's agonized scream, leaving everyone wide-eyed in disbelief.

While they were still processing what happened, the other bodyguard suddenly let out a cry of pain, collapsing to his knees, clutching his side as if in excruciating agony, completely unable to rise.

The bodyguard with the broken wrist wore a look of terror as he glanced at his fallen comrade, bewildered by how this woman managed to take them down so effortlessly.

He gritted his teeth, ready to attack Miranda again. But as he swung, Miranda deftly sidestepped, avoiding the blow.

"Ahhhh!" he screamed again, collapsing to the floor in pain, just like his partner.

Miranda looked down at the two writhing men with a calm, emotionless gaze. "Forgot to mention, coming at me has its costs."

Carter was utterly stunned. How on earth did Miranda do that?

"What did you do to them?!" Hugo demanded, both shocked and furious.
