She took the opportunity to look up all the information related to SerenityLeaf. Although she knew it would be she hadn’t fully understood its specific effects.
Just as she was about to sit on the couch to review the data, an alarm suddenly sounded in the building
She then looked up,
The alarm was terrifyingly loud.
Elizabeth frowned and suddenly thought of Blair, who had just left.
When she arrived, she had a feeling that something was off ou
outside. Could it be that something happened to Blair?
Elizabeth quickly turned on all the lights. She left her office and headed downstairs. As soon as she reached the lobby, she heard someone shouting, “Help!”
The lights couldn’t fully illuminate the institute, but she saw bloodstains on the white tiles.
And she could tell that Blair had clearly been stabbed and dragged away.
Elizabeth instantly became serious. She grabbed a vase nearby and cautiously walked outside.
Following the blood trail, she saw a man in black standing not far away, who was dressed in black, with a hat and mask covering him completely. But the dim light made it hard for Elizabeth to see his face.
She could only see that he was short and somewhat overweight.
The mai
in stared at her, his voice cold. “You come in her place, or I’ll kill her.” He was decisive.
Blair’s mouth was gagged, and she looked at Elizabeth in terror.
Elizabeth tried to calm her racing heart and said coldly. This is a research institute. The entire building has already been alerted, and the police will be here soon. If you know what’s good for you, let her go and leave now!”
As she spoke, Elizabeth kept observing Blair, who didn’t seem to be injured, judging from her clothes.
Could this blood be the man’s?

The man stepped back. “Stay where you are, don’t move.

Elizabeth raised an eyebrow. “You want to kidnap me, but you’re afraid of a woman? You must be a coward!”
Whoever sent him, how could they send someone so weak?
If he told Elizabeth that Esme sent him, she would laugh hysterically at Esme.
“Don’t move!” the m
shouted again.
Elizabeth immediately raised her hands, “Got it. Who are you looking for?”
“Im looking for you!” he said.
Elizabeth nodded. Then I’m here. Let her go.”
The man stared at Blair, who wasn’t an easy target either for him.
Even if he let her go, he had to hurt her a bit to teach her a lesson.
As he spoke, he moved the knife towards her arm
But Elizabeth immediately shouted, “Stop!”
“If you have a grudge,

- ne. Don’t hurt her. After all, she has no grudge against you!” Elizabeth rationally reminded
him, slowly moving forward.
Blair frowned at her, with eyes red.
As soon as she came out, this man had attacked her with a knife. Luckily, she dodged quickly, so the knife accidentally stabbed his
own leg.
She was so scared of it!
Who had Elizabeth offended?
“Fine, I’ll let her go. You come here!” the man pointed at Elizabeth.
Elizabeth nodded. “Got it.” Then she kept moving closer.
just as she was within reach, the man pushed Blair away and raised his hand to grab her hair.
