Chapter 78
If I could just corner my stalker, the better my chances of fighting him off.
The killer must’ve felt the same way.
He probably thought that he could easily kill me if he caught me alone.
Finally, when I reached a quiet, empty alley, I saw a knife glinting from the corner of my eye.
The man was trying to stab me from behind.
Last time, he had drugged me, so I couldn’t fight back.
But this time was different.
I nimbly stepped aside, easily avoiding his fatal blow.
The killer’s knife stabbed into the wall behind me.
Eyes wide in astonishment, he asked, “You knew I was here?”
I kicked him to the ground violently.
“Do you think I’m stupid enough to give you a second chance to kill me?”
With a straight face, I pulled the knife out of the wall and pointed it at the killer in front of me.
“Did Colin send you? If you tell me the truth, I might spare your life.

The killer sat on the ground and smiled at me with a crazed look.
“You? You would kill me?”
I smiled back at him.
“I don’t need to get my hands dirty.
”
Just then, a tall shadow loomed over the killer.
Harlan’s sudden appearance made the smile on the killer’s face freeze.
Harlan had come just in time.
He stood behind me, blocking the only alleyway’s only exit.
His face was icy cold and expressionless, which looked very intimidating.
I didn’t want to waste time, so I said to Harlan, “I’ll leave him to you.This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
”
I put away the knife and slowly walked to the entrance to the alley to wait for him.
Soon, the man’s shrill screams pierced the quiet air.
It was so harsh that the birds resting on telephone wires all flew away in a panic.
I shook my head and covered my ears.
About ten minutes later, I figured that the man was ready to break.
Sure enough, when I walked back, the hired killer was beaten bloody and bruised, kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy.
“I’m sorry, okay? Please let me go! I’ll do anything!”
I nodded to Harlan with satisfaction.
To the killer, I said seriously, “Tell me everything you know.
”
The man spilled the beans without hesitation.
“You were right.
It was Colin who hired me to kill you.
He gave me a lot of money in exchange for your death.
That’s all.
I don’t know anything else!”
I sighed.
“Don’t worry.
I believe you.
”
Truth be told, I had already guessed that Colin wanted to keep my mouth shut so that I couldn’t tell anyone about the crippling debt of the Frosty River Pack.
Damn.
He was as vicious as his sister.
Harlan rubbed his fists, looking a Little impatient.
“Debra, you’d better not let these trifles affect our mission.
