Chapter 1495: Trenton's face twisted into a grotesque mask, his features distorted by his scars. His voice dripped with cold venom as he spoke.
"Someone's put a price on your head, and we're just here to collect. Nothing personal. But I'll cut you a deal— surrender now, or we'll put a bullet in you before dragging you off. Your call." Of course, Trenton's so-called offer was nothing more than a smokescreen. Pulling the trigger would draw too much attention, and if things spiraled out of control, he could find himself in the crosshairs of the police. And that was a risk he couldn't afford—not with his daughter's life hanging in the balance.
The man wearing a mask and hat toyed with his weapon with a lewd grin.

Trust me, putting a few holes in you will be the least of your worries." Harlee stood her ground, her expression unreadable. Her voice was calm, almost disinterested, like she was discussing tomorrow's weather forecast.
"How much is my life worth? I mean, how much are they paying you to dragin?" The sudden question threw the men off balance. Shouldn't she be worrying about whether her moves could outrun their bullets? Why was she haggling over her bounty? Was this woman completely out of her mind? Trenton glanced at his watch. He didn't have tto guess what she was thinking. He just wanted to wrap this up, collect the money, and save his daughter.
"Twenty-" The newest releases are at gvlnovls"Four million. Six million each. That's what the other side is paying us," he muttered.
"So, no matter what, you're coming with us." Harlee's lips curled into a slight smirk, her eyes narrowing.
"Twenty-four million... Is that all I'm worth?" The men exchanged glances, the sthought passing between them all. This woman was insane. No more talking. Wasting ton her was just a distraction. The three of them yanked their guns free and pointed them at her, while the long-haired man moved in to subdue her.
The first shot rang out, but Harlee was faster. She darted toward the bald man closest to her, bringing her hand down hard on his wrist, causing the gun to fly from his grasp. His scream sliced through the alley.
In a fluid motion, Harlee placed both hands on the bald man's shoulders, and the next moment, she was airborne, kicking Trenton's and the masked man's guns out of their hands.
Then, with a sudden yank, she dislocated the bald man's uninjured arm, lifting her hand high and striking down at his neck.

"Ahh!" His scream echoed, his body crashing to the ground, limbs hanging limp, sweat pouring down his face like rain.
At this moment, Harlee was like a vengeful wraith, her gaze icy and unforgiving. Using the wall as a springboard, she vaulted into the air, and her boot connected with the neck of the masked man just as he reached for his fallen gun. The sickening crack of bone echoed in the alley, and the man crumpled to the ground, unconscious.
Harlee's eyes shifted to the long-haired man huddled in the corner, his body trembling as de inch way unnoting as he tried to With deliberate precision, she stepped forward, planting her boot firmly on his shoulder and pinning him in place. Her expression turned almost playful.

The long-haired man had never imagined that they, four grown men, would be subdued so quickly Pain shot through his shoulder where her weight pressed down, and the icy sweat trickling down his face blurred his vision. His arms hung limp at his sides. "Help me!" he screamed.
