The chaos at the airport was still raging. As they passed through the corridor, Ella could hear gunfire in the distance, and her body tensed up. Fear filled her eyes.

Lorenzo glanced back and saw her stumbling, her legs shaking as she struggled to keep her balance. “Are you scared?” he asked.

Ella nodded vigorously. “Yeah, I’m scared.”

She enjoyed action movies, but this was nothing like the thrills on screen. In a movie, excitement was fun, but here, one wrong move could mean death.

Keeping a meter apart, she clung to Lorenzo, not daring to let go for even a second.

He turned and continued walking, and El hurried to catch up, but his long legs made it tough for her to keep pace. Hearing her labored breaths, Lorenzo slowed down just a bit.

Suddenly, around a corner, two masked figures appeared, and the moment their eyes met, they reacted instantly, raising their weapons to take aim.

Lorenzo’s gaze sharpened. He pulled Ella tightly against him just as gunshots rang out, and the two attackers fell to the ground.

Everything happened so fast. Ella’s pupils dilated in shock as she clung to Lorenzo’s neck, her legs instinctively jumping up to wrap around his waist.

Lorenzo backed them against a cold wall, pinning her there. Feeling the weight of her body, he said coldly, “Get down.”

“No, I don’t want to! I want to go home!” Ella shook her head wildly, tightly shutting her eyes and refusing to let go.

Lorenzo’s sharp scent mixed with the threat surrounding him engulfed her.

Ella could only pray to God that she would make it through this alive today.

Lorenzo reached for her, trying to pull her off, but the moment he grabbed her, she collapsed to the ground, her legs giving out from sheer fear.

“I need to get back to Stefi! I need to get back to the plane!” Ella cried out.

Just a moment ago, she hadn’t wanted to be a burden, but now she was terrified and had completely lost her composure. All she could think was that being with Stephanie was the safest place to be.

Lorenzo looked down at the trembling Ella on the ground, feeling a bit exasperated. He hoisted her up and tucked her against his side, turning to leave.

Ella felt like a rag doll as he carried her, swaying slightly and feeling dizzy, too scared to say a word. At this moment, the man holding her felt more dangerous than any of the attackers.

Macro hadn’t planned to leave. If Elliot hadn’t warned him, he would’ve ended up getting punched again.
