“I underestimated Jack’s intelligence. | didn’t expect him to escape. With the hidden room, if he were dealing
with an ordinary person, he might have successfully fled,” Norah commented.
Inside the room, Norah inspected the decorations while chatting with Sean. “Darling, what's your take on going
through something like this with me?”
Norah pondered for a moment from Sean's perspective. If she were asked to lead a small group against a gang
of over sixty people, she would consider that insane. Without absolute confidence in their strength, facing such
overwhelming odds would be inviting disaster.
“Sweetheart, I'm willing to help you with anything, but you cannot put yourself in such perilous situations again,”
Sean replied gently. Sean noticed that Norah displayed an unusual level of bravery in certain situations. He
couldn't comprehend why she seemed unfazed.
These situations were undeniably dangerous, potentially even life-threatening. Even he would hesitate, but

Sean wasn't hesitant to act. He simply habitually considered the worst-case scenario. Norah casually agreed to
his request. “Okay.”
However, deep down, she understood that the decision depended on the context. She knew that if faced with a
situation where she had no alternative but to confront it—even at the risk of her own life—she would not hesitate
to act.
As Norah examined the ornaments, she noticed one seemed loose. With a firm press and a twist to the right, she
suddenly uncovered a hidden compartment beneath the floor, surrounded by bloodstains.
“I found it! Darling, stay up here. I'll head downstairs and apprehend him,” Norah declared, confident that Jack's
injuries would hinder his escape through this secret passage.

Sean gripped her hand tightly, insisting, “Norah, letdo this.” With a hint of helplessness in his voice, he
continued, “I'm your boyfriend. | can’t let you go into a dangerous situation alone. Wait for me.”
Norah felt a twinge of embarrassment. She hadn't fully adapted to their relationship yet and momentarily forgot
she had a boyfriend. “Be careful.”
Without further ado, Sean swiftly jumped into the secret passage to pursue Jack.
As Jack navigated the damp sewers, it felt like he was back home. He ran swiftly, his injured body protesting with
each step as he maneuvered through the intricate tunnels.
“If | remember correctly, there should be a hospital above if | go another 656 feet,” Jack cursed under his breath.
“That witch... I shouldn't have helped her, renderingunwittingly screwing with the wrong people.”
He lost everything, including his men from the East Zone. Recalling his crew, who had risked their lives for him,
filled Jack with profound anguish. Building his influence in the East Zone had required years of dedication, but
now he found himself utterly alone. All his efforts seemed to have been in vain.
Aware that capture by the pursuing group would likely result in dire consequences, Jack harbored grave doubts

Jack understood that, even without his underlings, he could still expand his influence. However, if he were to
perish, he would lose everything he had worked for.
Upon hearing approaching footsteps, Jack’s muscles tensed with apprehension. He speculated that it might be
sanitation workers. Besides them, he couldn't imagine who else would be wandering through the sewers.
As Jack turned to face the sound, a sudden and brutal kick sent him crashing against the wall. The wounds on his
body, already tender and raw, were subjected to a second heavy blow, eliciting a pained groan from Jack as he
struggled to regain his composure.
Losing a dangerous amount of blood, Jack’s head spun, and his vision blurred. A pair of sleek black leather shoes
halted before him, and then someone seized his collar. “Loser.”
Jack was hoisted up by a single hand, and through his haze, he recognized this handsman as the one who
had been tormenting the beauty and had shot him in the shoulder.
“You should consider more carefully whom you can afford to anger,” Sean icily declared.
