But Tracy had learned how to escape from being tied up, no matter how tight or complicated the knots were.

The one who taught her was Derek …

Every time the gray–jacket guy looked away, Tracy carefully twisted her wrists.

Her moves were so light she’d already loosened the ropes around her wrists, but the gray–jacket man didn’t notice a thing.

Now, all she had to do was wait for the perfect moment.

She was praying that, just this once, luck might finally be on her side–and pretty soon, that moment arrived.

The kidnappers who had left earlier came back to the run–down factory. The man in the leather jacket was carrying another guy. He was covered in blood, and nobody knew if he was alive or not.

He gently set the man down, feeling his neck to check if he was still breathing. After making sure he was alive, he turned and told the others, “You two go get some medicine. It would be a shame to lose such valuable cargo.”

His cold voice made it clear they thought human life was worth less than an expensive item.

The gray–jacket man put away his phone and kicked the bloody guy on the floor, curious. “So this is the prized cargo from Jezelton…”

Bang!

Before he could say more, the leather–jacket man slapped his helmet sharply “Have you forgotten the rules?”

The gray–jacket man glanced at Tracy but didn’t say another word.

The leather jacket man stared silently at Tracy for a moment, deep in thought.

Then he told the two other men, I’m going to pick someone up. You two stay here

and hold things down.”

Not trusting the situation, he pointed to the bloody guy and warned, “This shipment isn’t like the others–there are many ways things could go wrong.

“Be alert. If something feels off, move the cargo somewhere else right away.”

After the orders, the leather–jacket man hurried off, leaving the gray–jacket man and one other behind.

The two locked the factory’s heavy metal door tight, then went outside to patrol and watch for trouble.

Once Tracy was sure the door was locked, she waited a moment before loosening the ropes still holding her hands. Then she carefully crouched and untied the bindings around her legs.

Her limbs felt stiff after being tied for so long. She leaned on the metal frame, letting her muscles relax before moving on,

Quietly, she crept over to the bloody man‘ and gently nudged him.

He wobbled a bit but didn’t wake. The firelight from the metal barrel flickered on his face, making his features clearer.

Though covered in blood, his face was clean, like someone had purposely avoided hitting it.

He was young, handsome with sharp features, strong and determined, with long, thick eyelashes.

Tracy had seen many handsome guys.

At the Angelic Etiquette Academy, beautiful girls and striking guys were everywhere–Andrew and Liam, who grew up with her, were two very different kinds of handsome.

This guy easily ranked among the best she’d seen.

Making sure he was still out cold and wouldn’t suddenly wake up and make noise, Tracy didn’t stare any longer. She carefully moved toward the door.

The factory door was made of big metal sheets. Though locked, the seams weren’t tight.

Tracy curled up in a corner and cautiously peeked outside. She saw the gray–jacket man and his partner holding flashlights, watching the busy street and the area around while chatting.

“The Jackmans really don’t care,” the gray–jacket man said with a bitter laugh. “Eighteen years raising her, then just tossing her aside. That’s cold.”

The other replied, “Rich family drama’s just entertainment for us. Once we release the girl after we’re done pretending and deliver the cargo to the Angelic Etiquette Academy, we’ll get more money than before.”

Hearing “the Angelic Etiquette Academy” made Tracy freeze. A rush of instinctive fear hit her hard.

The “cargo” they’re talking about–do they mean this guy?

Is he going to be sent to the Angelic Etiquette Academy?!

The partner patted the gray–jacket man and said, “Our rule is no talking about operations or identities on the job. Why don’t you keep your mouth shut?”

The gray–jacket man chuckled. “There are no outsiders here. Those two inside are either unconscious or tied up–what’s there to be scared of?”

His partner knew his temper and said nothing, only glancing nervously at the locked door.

Tracy instinctively shrank back, curling her body up, heart pounding.

Footsteps slowly came closer. She held her breath, wishing she could even silence the sound of her own heartbeat.

If the man shone his flashlight through the door crack, he would see her curled up

in the corner.

But luckily, he just checked the lock on the chain and didn’t do anything else.

The gray–jacket man laughed at him. “You’re way too careful. There’s no other way out–how could she escape?

“We should just take turns patrolling outside. When the boss gets back, he can help

out.”

Neither of them went inside but split up to patrol outside.

Tracy finally relaxed a bit and didn’t waste any time. She quietly got up and slipped back inside the factory.
