"Mrs. Shaw just took a baseball bat to the head," Gerard announced gravely, easing the car to a slower pace. "I hope her injuries aren't severe."

Kristian's gaze snapped to the window at these words.

His eyes widened with horror at the scene unfolding across the open area.

Six assailants wielded baseball bats against Freya, their faces contorted with murderous intent as they swung simultaneously.

Before his mind fully registered the danger, words tumbled from his mouth. "Stop the car!"

Gerard pulled over immediately.

Kristian flung the door open and sprinted across the road. The absence of traffic proved fortunate-otherwise, his impulsive dash might have ended disastrously.

Gerard remained beside the vehicle, motionless.

As a capable assistant, he recognized when to step back.

Combat wasn't his strength, so waiting for Kristian and Freya's return seemed the wiser choice.

Freya battled fiercely, unaware of the nearby vehicle.

As six bats arced toward her, she responded without hesitation-two attackers fell from her powerful kicks while her own bat connected in the same instant.

The impacts resonated through the air.

All six attackers collapsed to the ground.

Freya surveyed the remaining standing figures with an icy stare, her challenge hanging in the air: "Not coming

"Dude, we can't continue."

"She fights with incredible ferocity!"

"Didn't the client claim she couldn't fight?"

"What's our next move?"

Terror gripped the remaining attackers.
