Chapter 1269:

At that moment, everyone stood before a white electronic door at the base of the stairs. Behind it lay the basement.

“Check everything thoroughly,” the leader ordered.

His men moved quickly, attaching an electronic device to the door to analyze its structure.

After a moment, one of them looked up and reported, “No signs of danger.”

“Can it be opened?”

“No, it can’t be opened.”

The man shook his head. “The lock is intricate. Cracking it would take considerable effort. Forcing it open might be our only option.”

The leader didn’t hesitate and said with a sneer, “Then force it open.”

“That woman is injured. She can’t escape.”

Allison’s heart skipped a beat. Keeping her movements subtle, she tapped her earpiece twice. The signal was instantly transmitted to Kellan, who received the instruction without delay.

The next moment, Kellan cut off the building’s access from the monitoring room. Then he called Sherman.

“Bring your team in. Get to the basement and rescue her!”

“Yes, sir.”

Meanwhile, Allison kept her focus on the men in black. Despite all their efforts, the white electronic door remained sealed. At most, they had managed to leave a few faint scratches.

His frustration boiling over, the leader clenched his fists and slammed them against the door.

In a sharp and commanding voice, he said, “Lilyana, I know you can hear me. You should understand — we only want the chip and the documents. Hand them over, and we’ll spare you.”

Silence filled the basement. All eyes remained fixed on the door. Then, from inside, a deep female voice broke the stillness.

“You want the chip and documents?”

A low chuckle followed.

“You can keep dreaming.”

Lilyana’s voice was icy and hoarse as she replied, “Go back and tell Milady I’d rather die here than give these things to him!”

Allison froze for a split second when she heard it. That voice had haunted her dreams more times than she could count. She couldn’t possibly be wrong about it. It was her birth mother.

But there was no time for joy, not even for a heartbeat. Fear and unease crashed over her instead. Her mother was still in danger, just beyond that door.

The men in black moved with practiced precision. Their intentions were clear — they meant to kill Lilyana.
