Chapter 553 Being Besieged
When Laney had hailed the cab, she was quick to get into the vehicle and hurriedly instructed the
driver, "Sir, take me to the Beasley Hotel."
She told the driver the name of the hotel she was staying at and looked back over her shoulder.
Luckily, Garrett hadn''t followed her.
Laney could see that his attitude towards her had changed greatly for quite a while now. At first, she
thought it was because they had be friends. However,ter, Garrett started to ask her out for
dinner on several asions.
But she didn''t like yboys so she knew that she had to stay away from him.
The car quickly drove through two tunnels. She peered out of the window when she realized that
something was definitely wrong.
The driver raced onwards at exceptionally high velocity.
And it was quite apparent that the car was not headed in the direction of the hotel.
Laney looked at the driver in rearview mirror. The driver stole a nce at her from the rearview
mirror as well, and from time to time, he had an evil glint in his eyes.
Laney tried to open the window quietly, only to find that it was locked. She looked back and found
that there were several cars following them.
"Sir, please stop the car. I want to get off here." Laney pretended to reach for the door casually.
The driver nced at her through the rearview mirror and turned the steering wheel. He sped up
and drove down a quiet alley.
Seeing what he had done, Laney gritted her teeth, quickly took off her coat and wrapped it around
her fore arm, and then punched the window with it. She then jumped out of the shattered window.
A sound of brake was heard cutting through the crisp air.
The driver immediately stopped the car, opened the door and rushed out to pursue her.
At the same time, the cars that had been following them also drove over to join the scene. A group
of tattooed men got out of the cars. They blocked both ends of the alley and surrounded Laney from
all directions.
"Guys! That''s the woman our boss wants!" A heavily tattooed man had roared these words while
holding a threatening club in his hand. He looked vicious, and there was a fresh scar between his
eyebrows.
Laney''s eyes swept over them. A dozen tall, muscr men were all well-armed and looked highly
aggressive. It seemed that a fight would inevitably ensue.
Laney touched her waist. Unfortunately, she had only a small dagger with her since she hadn''t
expected anything like this before heading out.
Judging from the current situation, she couldn''t leave easily.
"Buddy, you have to let me know who wants my life before you start." Laney raised her eyebrows
and looked at the man.
She pulled out the dagger from where it was hidden by her waist, and hit it between her teeth to free
up her hands. She tied up her long hair with a hair band she had on her wrist. She was petite, and
she looked particrly fragile among this burly group of strong men. It seemed there was no way
she could ever stand a chance to fight all these men.
Laney clenched her fists and then took the dagger out of her mouth. She was absolutely not a
match for so many men. She had a hunch that she might die here today, but she had to take a few
of them with her, even if it meant she had to die fighting.
"Fucking bitch! Don''t you know who you have offended? Go to hell and ask Satan!" the man leading
the mob spat. He looked at the men around him and said, "What are you waiting for? Go and catch
her!"
As soon as he gave the order, the strong men waved their weapons in unison and moved forward
with clear intent to attack Laney.
At this moment, the sound of car engine suddenly could be heard from the alley.

A car honked and raced into the alley.
"Damn it! Who is it?" The mob of men were frightened of being hit by the racing vehicle so they all
stepped out of the way.
The car stopped and the back door opened. Garrett unfastened his seatbelt and got out of the car
with an icy look on his face.
