StarNovelAt the coffee shop back then, Romeo and Arabella were inseparable, with eyes only for each other. But now, danger was knocking
at the girl's door, and as her fiancé, how could he stay so calm?
The thing was, these people looked a lot like professional killers. What if something happened to Arabella?
And there was that guy who got stabbed and was covered in blood.
It seemed like Arabella had gotten tangled up in smessy affair..
Derrick felt he had to go check on her.
Rushing downstairs, Derrick found Timothy and a bunch of security guards standing around like lost sheep, the place cleared out.
"Where's Arabella??" Derrick approached, his voice laced with urgency.
"I got here just in tto see her and her crew drive off."
They were actually chasing those other guys.
The people scattered in all directions, leaving just a few leaders. Arabella and her companion went to chase after them.

Derrick glanced at the fourth-floor balcony, where the blood-soaked man still lay slumped against the railing, motionless.
What on earth was going on? How had Arabella gotten involved in such a horrific situation?
Did she have ssecret identity they didn't know about?
"Why are we chasing that car ahead, boss?" Horace pushed the gas pedal to the floor, but was puzzled as to why Arabella wasn't
calling it quits, especially since they had already taken out the Viper.
If it weren't for those jerks surrounding him, he would have leapt to the fourth floor to save Viper himself, instead of watching
helplessly as he was stabbed to death.
"With his dying breath, he pointed to that guy with the buzz cut and toldtwo words, "Tower Bay'."
"Tower Bay? That's been a derelict building site for years. There was this big-shot developer who planned to build a fancy
residential area, complete with an agreement with the local government to plant oak trees, improve the sidewalks, invest in hot
springs, and the like. They said it was all set, but the developer went bankrupt halfway through the construction."
And so the building beca derelict site.
As Horace shared this, he couldn't help but speculate, "Could it be that with his last breath, Viper had a change of heart, wanting to
tell us that those guys, including the buzz cut, have their hideout in Tower Bay?"
"Quite possible."
That's why Arabella wanted to follow them.
"Boss." Horace glanced at the street sign. "The direction they're headed looks like Tower Bay."
"Stay on them."
The white car ahead was fleeing frantically on the nighttroad, like someone running for their life.
Horace pursued relentlessly, refusing to let up.
The chase led them down a desolate street, with a dead end ahead. On the left was the half-built derelict high-rise, and on the
right were rows of large trees.
Horace followed them into the derelict building's parking lot, only to find their car had disappeared, the sound of their engine gone.

"Boss." Before Horace could utter a word, Arabella issued a command, "Pull out."
Before Horace could react, the roaring engines of dozens of cars surrounded them, trapping them in a ring of blinding headlights.
People got out of their cars, weapons in hand.
Just as Horace was about to step on the gas, something heavy slammed onto the roof of his car. Taking a glance, the entire car
seemed to have been lifted off the ground.
"Jump." Arabella opened the door and leaped out, with Horace scrambling to follow her.
Their car was hoisted high and then dropped, smashing to the ground.
"Boss."
Arabella quickly pulled him aside to take cover.
As their car crashed down, shattering glass with a loud bang and sending shards flying, Arabella caught sight of a person stepping
out from the crowd.
It was Martha.
