Chapter 377 Aren’t We Just Performing?

Maggie’s abrupt movement took everyone by surprise, particularly when she unveiled a concealed dagger. Sierra’s complexion drained, and her eyes betrayed unmistakable dread.

The dagger possessed a keen edge and was slender and frigid, casting a shimmer of frosty gleam. It hovered menacingly near her tender throat, inducing a faint prickle as a droplet of crimson appeared.

With merely a fraction more force, it threatened to breach her flesh.

Sierra quivered, the fleeting victory she had tasted moments prior now supplanted by dread, tears brimming in her eyes.

The two mercenaries beside them seemed surprised by this turn of events, and they immediately aimed their weapons at Maggie.

A foreign man, fluent in English with a resonant timbre, declared, “Set her free, or I will shoot!”

A smirk played upon Maggie’s lips as she remarked, “Rather than fretting over her, your attention ought to be on your allies beyond these walls. Should you dare lay a finger on me, departure from this place alive will not be an option.”

Her eyes held a profound intensity, unyielding as they met the man’s gaze.

Furrowing his brow, the man prepared to address Maggie when his team caught wind of something. hastening towards the door and conversing swiftly in a foreign language.

Following suit, the man cautiously joined his team, stealing a glance out the window before uttering a curse in English under his breath.

“Is this an undercover operative? This is a trap! What’s the meaning of this?”

He bellowed in fury, his agitation palpable.

Observing his distraction, Sierra couldn’t suppress her anxiety. “You can’t disregard me! You vowed to protect me!”

Maggie sneered, murmuring into her ear, “They’re occupied with other matters. Where would they find the time to bother with you? It would already be seen as merciful if the mastermind behind all of this didn’t kill you first.”

Sierra was terrified, fearing that any sudden movement from Maggie might cause the dagger in her hand to plunge into her neck.
