She didn’t let go of Lucinda’s hand until they reached the car, and she took a seat in the back.
After getting in the car, Karin slumped against the seat and slept off. She appeared very exhausted.
Lucinda checked on her through the rearview mirror every now and then, and seeing that she was asleep, she kept a steady pace while driving.
Twenty minutes had passed, and Karin was still sound asleep.
Lucinda’s phone was almost out of battery, and she called Karin twice to check with the address again. The girl was in a deep sleep, so she didn’t bother her and relied on her memory to navigate her way.
The car was quiet with the windows shut.
Lucinda sniffed the air and realized something was off.
She could feel a sense of unease creeping in.
Karin claimed that she went out to drink with her friends, but there wasn’t the smell of alcohol on her breath, despite her flushed face.
Therefore, she wasn’t drunk!
The training facility was located in the suburbs with no sign of clubs or restaurants in the vicinity.
It was a calculated move on Karin’s part!
Just as Lucinda pondered on this, a loud gust of wind suddenly blew against her ear.
Reacting on instinct, she quickly grabbed the hand that was behind her.
She then realized that a syringe was only a few millimeters away from being pushed into her neck!
“You. How did you know what I wanted to do.”
Karin was caught off-guard by Lucinda’s swift reaction. She dropped the act and now had a wicked expression on her face. She kept on trying to stab Lucinda with the needle, wielding it with both hands.
Knowing that she couldn’t get her off with one hand, Lucinda sprang into action. The car was moving steadily in the suburbs, so she yanked the handbrake abruptly.

The tire screeched to a halt, and the vehicle lost control, flipped over the guardrail, and tumbled into the grass on the side of the road.
The driver’s seat was shielded by the airbag which protected Lucinda from getting hurt. She got out of the car almost immediately with just a minor cut on her forehead.
Looking at the wreckage of her recently acquired Santana, Lucinda lamented, “What a pity! I bought it just a while ago and it’s already damaged.”
She saw that Karin didn’t come out of the car and opened the door to bring her out. She was unconscious and Lucinda laid her horizontally on the ground.
Karin woke up after Lucinda slapped her cheek a few times.
She was surprised to see that Lucinda had rescued her and asked, “Why did you save me? I harmed you. You should just leave me there to die.”
