Chapter 294

On a quiet suburban street, Naylor was driving his car alone.

He wasn’t speeding. Every so often, a car would catch up to him from behind, eagerly overtaking him to continue ahead.

The vehicles that might have been tailing him before had been left in the dust.

And Herman…

Naylor glanced at his phone screen, sent Herman a location, then kept on driving.

About half an hour later, Naylor’s car pulled to a slow halt outside a familiar abandoned factory.

In the past, this was where their group would occasionally meet. And once again, Keeley had decided to set their rendezvous here.

Naylor got out of the car and slowly made his way towards the overgrown yard.

When he got to the factory entrance, he gave the interior a quick once-over.

Inside the vacant factory, Keeley sat quietly behind a pile of messy, discarded equipment, not even lifting an eyelid.

Beside Keeley, Naylor’s wife was lying silently on the ground, unconscious.

Naylor stood at the entrance for a moment, sending another message to Herman on his phone before slowly stepping inside.

Upon hearing footsteps, Keeley slowly lifted his eyes. Seeing Naylor walking towards him alone, Keeley gave a small smile and greeted him as usual, “You’re here.”
