On the third day, Janessa washed up and left. She made herself a glass of milk and hailed a cab to school.

As soon as she arrived at the school gate, she was abruptly stopped by a few thugs who sprang out of nowhere.

“Janessa, where are you going?” A group of thugs approached her intimidatingly.

Upon seeing a few of them, Janessa instinctively took a step back. “How did you all end up here?”

“What do you think?” At that moment, a slightly handsome thug let out a chuckle.

Janessa felt somewhat restless, her gaze darting left and right. She silently felt fortunate that there was no one nearby.

“Where’s the money?” As soon as they entered the alley, the man spoke up again.
