GoodRead"Damn it!" Adler yanked off his damaged mask and the voice changer around his neck, fuming. "Who the hell told you to shoot at me? My limited edition, custom-made suit! You're gonna pay for this!" Timothy glanced at the handgun in his hand, then at the driver crawling out of the car. Was this all just a setup? "Sorry, Timothy. Just being cautious, didn't mean to offend. Hope you understand," Sophie said, dusting herself off as she stood up.

Timothy frowned. "Why? You were testing me?" "You must be new to Devonport," Sophie said. "This road doesn't lead from Burke Estate to Burke International; it's the opposite direction. If you had noticed, you would've known that from the start." "So, the message you hadsend last night was a test." Adler clapped Timothy on the shoulder. "Sophie wasn't just testing you; she was aiming to trap that group in one go. Congrats, kid, you passed our test." Timothy's eyes darkened. This Sophie was as cunning as the boss had said. Luckily, he hadn't been easily fooled. Otherwise, today would have been a disaster.
If he had fallen into Colby's hands, he might not have made it back to Summerfield alive.

Meanwhile On the road from Burke Estate to Burke International, the driver Rick calmly said, "Colby, there's a police line two hundred meters ahead." "Stop the car in three seconds." "Got it." Sitting next to Colby, Jenna asked, "Are you sure about this, Colby?" "Absolutely." "How sure?" "One hundred percent." The car screeched to a halt, and figures emerged from the shadows. Seeing their numbers, Jenna was taken aback. There were at least twenty people. Did they really want Sophie dead that badly? Colby handed a handgun to Jenna. "Let's get to work. Remember, don't kill them. We need salive." "But..." Really? She had to fight too? Jenna glanced at the gun in her hand and pouted. Alright then! Let's do this!
Rick got out of the car, and the alley quickly filled with screams. Jenna took down one guy with a shoulder throw, then kicked another who was charging at her. When a thug aimed to shoot, Jenna fired a quick deadly accurate shot, knocking the gun out ofhis hand.
She blew the smoke off her gun barrel. "Haven't practiced in years! daven't Today's a good day to brush up!"
Colby, wearing black leather gloves, advanced without a flinch. Finally his i backup arrived in an armored vehicle. Faced with the Costello family's army, these twenty men didn't stand a chance.
