Chapter 489 Startled, Raegan's heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively moved to exit the elevator.

Yet, before she could leave the elevator, the doors had already begun to close, sealing their descent.

Standing beside Raegan, the man was incognito, hiding beneath a baseball cap and a mask, his features obscured from view.

Raegan stood upright, her body poised and vigilant.

Time ticked by slowly.

While Raegan's attention remained focused on the descending floor numbers displayed on the elevator panel, she maintained a vigilant watch over the man's every movement from the corner of her eye. She refused to let her guard down for even a moment.

Observing the man's cautious glances around, Raegan remained on high alert.

The venue's elevator was outfitted with high-definition cameras capturing every angle, and it appeared that the

man took a moment to glance toward them.

Each passing moment felt agonizingly long.

At last, the elevator reached the basement level.

Raegan's legs had stiffened with tension.

With legs stiffened by tension, Raegan cautiously began to step forward, but the sound of approaching footsteps from behind caught her attention. She was just a few strides away from where the driver awaited her in the car Quickening her pace, Raegan had barely moved when a sudden grip on her shoulder jolted her.

Raegan's body tensed instinctively, and without hesitation, she swung her elbow back forcefully.

The person behind Raegan managed to evade the blow slightly, allowing Raegan the chance to dash toward the waiting car. However, her escape was halted by a deep voice calling out her name. "Raegan..."
