Scarlett locked her gaze on the man, scrutinizing his eyes for any signs of deceit. To her surprise, she detected the truth in his words. Instantly, her interest arose.

"I know, miss. Please, please listen..." the man pleaded, wiping away the blood from his mouth.
Scarlett's impatience ran thin, "Then speak up now!"
"Our boss sent another highly skilled team to track you down," he revealed, his voice filled with urgency.
