Chapter 22 - the ambush
Emma immediately reported this mysterious signal to Thomas, her loyal partner and security director. He didn't say a word, simply drawing his gun, his eyes flashing with absolute protection. They decided to head personally to the abandoned seaport area, the source of that encrypted coordinate.
The black armored SUV glided through the freezing drizzle of Chicago. Just as we entered the deserted container yard, the entire navigation system on the car was suddenly jammed severely and died completely.
"Hold on tight," Emma said softly, her survival instinct fully activated. Instantly, three massive military trucks with their headlights off charged out from the blind spots, violently ramming into the side of our car with the intent to crush the SUV.
With extraordinary calmness, Emma swerved sharply, sliding through the fatal gap by a mere inch. The car spun on the soaked road, avoiding a fatal crash.
