Chapter 1048 The Break-in And The Trap

Joshua rolled in bed lazily. "I'm gonna pass. It's midnight and I'm already in bed."

Sheffield calmly walked towards the door and said, "All right. Where shall we meet?"

"What? I said I'm not coming, dude!" Joshua was exhausted. He had been very busy lately and just wanted to sleep.

"Got it. I'll be there soon."

As soon as Sheffield put his hand on the doorknob of his front door, he heard a noise behind him. He tried to open the door quickly, but the lock had been deliberately tampered with.

All of a sudden, the lights in the living room went out. A figure rushed towards him in the dark, and a shining dagger came at him.

Sheffield briskly dodged the attack.

He moved a few feet away from the attacker and measured him up. The person was wearing a long black latex overcoat, with its hood over his head, and a ghost-face mask covering his entire face, except his eyes.

Normally this was where anyone would run screaming, but Sheffield was fearless.

He reacted quickly and threw a kick. The attacker deftly dodged, and so, the fight began.

After a few moves, Sheffield was sure that this was the man who had tried to kill him in the suburbs last time. "Who the hell are you?" he asked.

Without answering, the man lunged forward to stab his target.

Sheffield jumped across the sofa to put some distance between them. "I have to know why you're doing this. You tried to kill me two years ago, and here you are again. Tell me, is this personal or did someone send you?"
