Chapter 606

Nathan trudged down the busy streets, feeling more alone than ever. His leg injury wasn't healing with time; in fact, it was getting worse.

On a deserted street, he didn't have to hide his pain. He limped along, every step bringing a sharp twinge, occasionally letting out a quiet groan.

A sleek black car pulled up, blocking his path. The window rolled down to reveal a man in sunglasses, exuding a vibe of chilly detachment. He spoke flatly, without a hint of warmth.

"He sent me to pick you up."

Nathan nodded, keeping silent, and awkwardly climbed into the car.

The door closed with a soft thud, and suddenly, the car's interior felt calm and minimalistic, a world away from the hustle and bustle outside. It was as if their brief conversation hadn't even happened.

"Injured yourself?" The man in sunglasses didn't bother to turn around or start the car. He just sat there, stiffly, throwing Nathan a teasing comment.

"Yeah." Nathan leaned back against the seat, feeling drained.
