There was no one else on the empty street, so neither of them noticed it when

the heavily dressed man approached Keegan from another direction.

It was not until he got closer and suddenly pulled out a baseball bat from his

jacket that Stella screamed at Keegan to alert him.

However, it was already too late. The man forcefully swung the bat at the back

of Keegan’s head.

Stella’s pupils contracted, as she dropped the thermos in her hands. She

screamed for help and rushed toward Keegan.

Keegan felt a sharp pain in his head. He staggered and narrowly avoided the

second hit. He somehow managed to kick the attacker’s knee, causing him to

groan and kneel on the ground.

Keegan’s vision was going dark, but he used all his remaining strength to twist

the attacker’s arm behind his back and remove the mask from his face.

As soon as he saw the man’s face, a van came out of nowhere and sped toward

Stella.

Keegan was shocked, and his attention immediately shifted to Stella. He
