He thought a threat like this would be enough to make Danielle yield.
After all, he assumed women were inherently soft-hearted.
Especially when it came to a child's safety, they always had a weakness.
But to his surprise, Danielle remained completely unfazed.
"Mike, did you honestly think I'd come alone? Did you really believe your little tricks could fool Alexander?"
The moment the words left her mouth, countless blinding floodlights illuminated the perimeter of the factory, forcing Mike and the two burly men behind him to shield their eyes.
A second later, the synchronized sound of heavy boots echoed as dozens of men in black security uniforms swarmed from every corner, surrounding the trio. The police followed closely behind, handcuffs drawn and expressions grim.
Mike whipped his head toward Danielle. "You played me?"
"The feeling is mutual," Danielle replied coolly. She tapped the micro-earpiece hidden in her collar. "Alex, everyone's in position. Let's wrap this up."
"Are you hurt?" Alex asked.
"I'm fine. Everything went smoothly," she replied with a faint smile.
Before she even finished speaking, a familiar figure strode out from the blinding lights. Alex pushed his way through the crowd and walked straight to Danielle.
He pulled her into his arms, his gaze scanning her from head to toe. Only when he confirmed she was completely unharmed did he finally exhale a heavy breath.
Alex turned his dark, menacing gaze toward Mike.
Mike took a slow step back, keeping his eyes on Danielle. "You've really disappointed me."
A sudden wave of unease washed over her.
The moment those words left his lips—
A deafening roar erupted from the sky above them.
The noise grew closer and more intense, violently rattling the air above the abandoned building materials factory.


The helicopter banked sharply.
Only when the chopper was completely out of sight did Danielle slowly pull away from Alex's chest.
She took a deep breath. The cool night air rushed into her lungs, clearing the chaotic fog in her mind.
She rubbed her temples, feeling the frantic pulsing beneath her skin. The sudden turn of events had caught everyone off guard.
But Mike's parting words and that helicopter appearing out of nowhere felt incredibly eerie.
This wasn't a spur-of-the-moment escape; it was meticulously planned.
Mike had agreed to this meeting knowing full well that Alex would set a trap. He only showed up because he had a guaranteed way out.
In fact, this entire encounter had just been a test—a test of their security measures and a probe into their limits.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Wife You Buried Is Back from Hell
Although she was one of the protagonist (and best friend of Danielle), I'm really annoyed with Kristen. What does she actually want? She wants to be completely free from Gian, whatever their business is. But when Gian doesn't care about her, she gets annoyed and overthinks. Hey, Kristen, the world doesn't revolve around you. You may follow your own feelings, but that doesn't mean you can ignore other people's feelings at all!...
It seems like this novel will end at chapter 5000. Every time one issue ends, another one pops up, and it seems like the author is just trying to drag it out. I'm starting to get tired of reading it....
I hope daniele will have no end game with alexander since whatever the reason is, he only give her too much grievencess. I hope there will be another male character with stronger present than alexander to have the end game with daniele. Hated that in the name of love or protection alexander can treat another woman better, not just once, but with this new lorie girl... Oh my blood pressure getting higher cause by the new plot :(...
