Chapter 16

An abandoned factory sat in the suburbs outside of Channing.

Several fierce-looking men lounged inside with beer and snacks.

They all surrounded a girl who was tied to a chair. Her tear-streaked face came to view - it was Queenie.

Those men belonged to a gang of outlaws.

The leader was Cobra, who was also the caller from earlier.

Another man with a pockmarked face approached Cobra, “Boss. Will Penny Smith really give us the money?”

Cobra narrowed his beady eyes and chuckled, “Who cares? With those murders in Channing, we have to be on the road anyway. We’ll take her daughter with us if she fails to pay. We can easily get a million or two, selling that pretty girl to some elite brothel.”

A few men sniggered wickedly, “Smart! I heard that many wealthy men have a fetish for virgins. I’m sure she’ll make us rich.”

Cobra kept an impassive smirk on his face as he glanced at Queenie.

After intense crying and struggling, Queenie’s face was messy. Yet, there was still a hopeful look on her face. She warned, “My dad is very powerful. He won’t let you get away with this!”

Cobra snorted, “Oh, yeah? If he’s that great, how come he’s not here saving you?”

The moment Cobra finished his mocking, he heard a voice, “I’m right here!”

Cobra and his gang shot up nervously to look at the door.

They saw two figures walking towards them.

One was Nathan and the other was Penny.
