“This time, it might not be possible!”

The bandit leader with the felt hat frowned. “They’ve got serious protection

now, and not just one expert. If we go head–to–head, we might lose. Better to

live to fight another day. Once these experts leave, we can strike the next

Though the henchmen felt disappointed, they knew all too well the dangers

of their line of work. One wrong move and it could be the end of the road for

them. So, despite the missed opportunity, they agreed with their leader’s

cautious decision.

like a stone statue.

“Ms. Quillen, what should we do now?” Anthony asked nervously, still shaken

at the thought of bandits.

“It’s fine. Let’s keep moving. No one’s going to rob us,” Mackenzie replied

calmly.
