Chapter 2603
Night of Destiny
Shirley looked at the men at the doors. âStep aside. One of the men leered at them before suggesting
lewdly, âOh, you two are pretty. We love ladies of your race. Why donât we have a cup of coffee?â
âI said, step aside,â said Shirley darkly. I guess I have to fight our way out. Another man snapped up a
steel bat and swung it on Imogenâs head. Imogen blacked out and fell to the ground.
âImogen!â Shirley looked at her fallen friend. She clenched her fists, staring at the men around her.
This was part of Imogenâs plan. She wanted these men to take her out first. Shirley wouldnât dream of
leaving her behind. That way, they would have a chance to capture her. She knew Shirley all too well.
That woman was not someone who would leave a friend behind. Instead, sheâd do her best to escape
together with Imogen.
Imogen was right on the money. Shirley was not someone who would escape alone. She wouldnât
leave her unconscious friends with these b*stards. When one of the guys tried to get close, Shirley
swiftly took a chair and hurled it right at him.
Caught by surprise, the man flew back through the air. It also told his companions that Shirley was a
fighter. Soon enough, four of them ganged up on her. These were no ordinary men, they were veteran
mercenaries whoâd gone through bloody battles themselves. Shirley might be a fighter, but she had no
chance against these people.
Nearly fifteen minutes had gone by since Shirley fought these four. It was hard for her to do battle in a
cramped space like this coffee shop. Due to her brief inattention, someone took the opportunity to slam
a chair into her back. Shirley immediately went down on her knees. Just then, she saw someone taking
Imogen on his shoulders and walking to a room.
âLet her go!â Shirley roared, darting after that man. Alas, someone immediately blocked her path.
Although the four men were hurt, Shirley was their quarry this time. They had to have her.
Shirley had to face a punch and evade everyone elseâs attacks. She was stuck between a rock and a
hard place.
Imogen was taken to a quiet room. She was genuinely unconscious moments ago. Nonetheless, she
had managed to regain consciousness soon enough as she opened her bleary eyes. Then, she rubbed
the back of her head, feeling the bump as she said, âYou did good, people.âBooks Chapters Are Daily

A middle-aged man hugged her. âNora, youâre one of us. You made us worried sick.â
Imogen smirked as she revealed her true self, picking up a cigarette, and had a hit. Obviously, this
wasnât her first time smoking. âFinish this job, and youâll be making tons of money. You canât afford to
fail.â
âYou can trust those guys. Theyâll take her down eventually.â
Ten minutes later, one of the men came in. âWe took her down.â
Imogen puffed out a ring of smoke. âBe careful. Donât let her run away.â
âShe can fight. Broke Casaâs leg.â
âDonât underestimate her. Sheâs a great fighter back in our base.â Imogen sat on the couch. âAnd now
youâre going to let me go. Iâll return and tell our boss to prepare the ransom for her.â
âYou sure he can afford it?â
âYou underestimate her. Her father is in command of the largest base back home. She is also part of
the presidentâs family. Plus, my boss is trying to date her right now. Sheâs worth a ton.â
The kidnappers were shocked. They had no idea Shirley was this important, and they were instantly
seized by fear. They wanted money, but not at the cost of their lives.
âWhy didnât you tell us who she really is, Nora? We should never target people like her.â
Imogen sneered as she snarked, âYou donât strike me as cowards. No pain, no gain. Sheâs your only
ticket to one billion dollars at one go. Thatâs enough money to last you a lifetime.â
