“Mr. Mitchell!” Hannah’s heart quickened, her voice barely above a whisper.
“This is far too perilous!”
The man in the suit opposite, his wristwatch shattered by a well- aimed bullet, finally regained his faculties, brandishing his firearm toward Bryson.

Confronted by Bryson’s unwaveringly lethal stare, the bravado of the two men across from him withered instantaneously.
“You!” The man who had lost his wristwatch raised his voice, bolstering his own resolve, aiming his weapon at Hannah.
“Approach us immediately !”
Hannah attempted to step forward but an unyielding force drew her back.
Bryson’s eyes, laden with resoluteness, remained fixed upon her.

Hannah broke free from Bryson’s grasp, casting him a determined look before turning and approaching the two men stationed near the rugged cliffs with a subdued expression.

“Do not you dare move!”
The gun’s cold barrel pressed against her forehead, causing Hannah to lower her gaze and inquire, “What do you want?”
Holding the fates of two individuals within his grasp, the man finally let down his guard and directed his gaze in Bryson’s direction.
“You’ve trespassed into territory you ought not to; today serves as a mere lesson for you!” With a scornful grin, he casually twirled the gun aimed at Grace.
“Today, we shall take but one of her limbs, a message to Mr. Mitchell!”
The moment of reckoning had arrived!
Hannah elevated her hands, seizing the gun that had been menacing her temple and forcefully redirected its aim.
The man behind her, startled, instinctively pulled the trigger.
