After taking care of business, the group left the Protection Association.
The men watched Sophie Wexler's retreating back, their gazes venomous. They couldn't just swallow this insult.
Sophie Wexler walked ahead. Sensing footsteps trailing her, she remained perfectly calm, weaving through a series of turns before ducking into a deserted alley.
"Looks like the last lesson wasn't enough. She actually dared to walk into an alley. She's asking for it!" one of them growled through clenched teeth, and they followed.
Sophie Wexler sneered inwardly. 'Some people just never learn.'
When they followed her around the corner, they found that Sophie Wexler had vanished. The next thing they knew, their world went black as burlap sacks were thrown over their heads.
"Who—who dares to do this to us!" Caught completely off guard, they shouted in fury.
"Sophie Wexler, is that you? I know it's you!"
