This was the first time Lilah had heard him say so many words at once.

But still, she continued to shake her head in refusal. Even though she was not a weakling, her heart could not help but beat fast when she thought of what he wanted to do.

"Please, just do as I say," Gerard admonished. “We can only get out of this alive if we go separately."

With that, he asked the driver to stop the car. Then he jumped out of the vehicle.

Before Lilah could react, he had ordered the driver to drive off with her.

The driver was not only a good driver, but he was also a tough man and a skilled fighter. Gerard was confident that Lilah would be safe with him.

Without hesitation, the driver stepped on the gas and the car flew off.

Lilah was helpless. With tears welled up in her eyes, she looked at Gerard through the rearview mirror, wishing that things had turned out differently.

Though the driver was stunned by her sudden instruction, he still refused to stop the car. "Miss Phillips, we have to leave this area as soon as possible; otherwise, Mr. Harris' efforts would be in vain," he told her.

But Lilah refused to listen. "I'm asking you to stop right now!"

The driver was startled, and he raised his head to look at her through the rearview mirror.

At this moment, Lilah was no longer an ordinary woman. She was a very angry and impatient warrior.

“Miss Phillips, but..."
