Chapter 553: Being BesiegedWhen Laney had hailed the cab, she was quick to get into the vehicle and hurriedly instructed the driver, "Sir, taketo the
Beasley Hotel."
She told the driver the nof the hotel she was staying at and looked back over her shoulder Luckily, Garrett hadn‘t followed
her.
Laney could see that his attitude towards her had changed greatly for quite a while now.
At first, she thought it was because they had becfriends.
However, later, Garrett started to ask her out for dinner on several occasions.But she didn‘t like playboys so she knew that she
had to stay away from him.
The car quickly drove through two tunnels.She peered out of the window when she realized that something was definitely wrong.
The driver raced onwards at exceptionally high velocity.
And it was quite apparent that the car was not headed in the direction of the hotel.
Laney looked at the driver in rearview mirror.
The driver stole a glance at her from the rearview mirror as well, and from tto time, he had an evil glint in his eyes.
Laney tried to open the window quietly, only to find that it was locked.She looked back and found that there were several cars
"Sir, please stop the car.I want to get off here."
Laney pretended to reach for the door casually. The driver glanced at her through the rearview mirror and turned the steering
wheel.He sped up and drove down a quiet alley.
Seeing what he had done, Laney gritted her teeth, quickly took off her coat and wrapped it around her fore arm, and then
punched the window with it.
She then jumped out of the shattered window.
A sound of brake was heard cutting through the crisp air.
The driver immediately stopped the car, opened the door and rushed out to pursue her.
At the stime, the cars that had been following them also drove over to join the scene.A group of tattooed men got out of the
cars.
They blocked both ends of the alley and surrounded Laney from all directions.
"Guys! That‘s the woman our boss wants!"
A heavily tattooed man had roared these words while holding a threatening club in his hand.He looked vicious, and there was a
fresh scar between his eyebrows.
Laney‘s eyes swept over them.
Laney touched her waist.
Unfortunately, she had only a small dagger with her since she hadn‘t expected anything like this before heading out.
Judging from the current situation, she couldn‘t leave easily.
"Buddy, you have to letknow who wants my life before you start." Laney raised her eyebrows and looked at the man.
She pulled out the dagger from where it was hidden by her waist, and hit it between her teeth to free up her hands.She tied up
her long hair with a hair band she had on her wrist.She was petite, and she looked particularly fragile among this burly group of
strong men.
It seemed there was no way she could ever stand a chance to fight all these men.
Laney clenched her fists and then took the dagger out of her mouth.She was absolutely not a match for so many men.
She had a hunch that she might die here today, but she had to take a few of them with her, even if it meant she had to die
fighting.
"Fucking bitch! Don‘t you know who you have offended? Go to hell and ask Satan!" the man leading the mob spat.
He looked at the men around him and said, "What are you waiting for? Go and catch her!"
As soon as he gave the order, the strong men waved their weapons in unison and moved forward with clear intent to attack
Laney.
At this moment, the sound of car engine suddenly could be heard from the alley.A car honked and raced into the alley.
"Damn it! Who is it?"
The mob of men were frightened of being hit by the racing vehicle so they all stepped out of the way.The car stopped and the
back door opened.
Garrett unfastened his seatbelt and got out of the car with an icy look on his face.
