Chapter 497
The office was dimly lit, with the yellow light falling on Haley's black eyes, shining brightly.
Martin looked at her cold and clear eyes, suddenly raised the corner of his lips and smiled.
"Haley, you are so smart, how did you get tricked by your sister five years ago?"
A fierce light flashed in Haley's crimson lips.
Five years ago, she was tricked because she trusted those two so-called relatives too much, not because she was stupid.
Just as she was distracted, Martin suddenly raised his hand and grabbed her wrist.
Haley's slender figure moved agilely, took a step back, and easily escaped from Martin's control range.
The fruit knife in her hand mercilessly stabbed toward Martin's neck.
Martin narrowed his eyes, forced to step back.
He coldly said, "I didn't expect you to be so powerful."
He found it difficult to defend against her.
Haley smiled lightly. "If you really harm my daughter, then the fruit knife in my hand will definitely stab into your heart without hesitation. But today, I don't want to dirty my hands!"
As she spoke, she leaped forward and ruthlessly elbowed Martin's neck from behind.
Martin had been on guard against the fruit knife in her hand, completely unprepared for her sudden move. He was hit in the back of the neck and fell to the ground directly.
He fell to the ground, raising a cloud of dust.
The commotion here was transmitted to the ears of the strong man in the warehouse through the walkie-talkie.
The strong man holding a lighter's expression suddenly changed. He never expected that the boss would be knocked out by a woman.
He couldn't care less.
The lighter lit up a cluster of blue flames.
The two-centimeter-thick hemp rope caught fire, instantly illuminating a path.
Ivan stood about a dozen meters away, his eagle-like eyes suddenly narrowed.
He kicked away the two black-clad strong men in front of him and rushed over there quickly.
But!
Whose speed could be faster than the speed of fire?
When he was five or six meters away from there, the hemp rope was burned through, and the hemp bag hanging from the beam crashed down.
"No!" Ivan shouted hoarsely and rushed over desperately.
He opened his arms, wanting to catch the hemp bag falling from the sky.
He didn't want the person in the hemp bag to be harmed in any way.
He would rather be the one tied in the hemp bag at this moment.
He would rather be thrown to death himself than let Haley be harmed in any way.
But!
He was still too late!
He could only watch as the hemp bag fell to the ground with a bang, making a dull sound on the cement floor.
Then, he saw the hemp bag slowly getting wet, crimson blood seeping out from it, spreading on the damp ground.
"Haley!"
Ivan's voice was trembling.
He walked over, his knees weak, and knelt on the cement floor.
He reached out to untie the hemp bag, but it was all blood there. He reached out, then retracted in fear.
He dared not move.
He was afraid that if he touched the hemp bag, her injuries would worsen.
He had lived for more than twenty years and had never been afraid of anything, but at this moment, he was truly scared.
