Vivienne and Percival acted as if they were blind to the crisis, treating the life in Belle's grasp as nothing worth mentioning.

Belle pressed the blade a fraction deeper. Her voice was laced with a threat. "Percival, you're the head of Vanguard Agency's special squad. You gonna let this hostage die on your watch and kiss your career goodbye?"

She was convinced Percival would not let the hostage die. That was the Vanguard Agency's way; they valued life, even that of a stray dog, above all else. It was laughable, really. Because of this soft spot, they had missed countless opportunities to corner the notorious GTO.

Before Belle could react, the waiter grabbed her ankle in a swift motion, flipping her over and slamming her to the ground with a thud.

"Ugh!" Belle grunted, pain shooting through her already poisoned body, bones fracturing under the impact.

Vivienne frowned. "Brian, go easy on her. If she dies, it's on you!"
