Chapter 2992

A sharp shout interrupted their movements. "Who's there?"

"Take them all down!" Adolph shouted back, aware that time was even more of the essence now.

With discovery, stealth was unnecessary. The group leaped into action, engaging in a fierce melee. The sounds of the fight echoed inside the building.

"What's happening out there?" the leader of the captors asked, frowning.

"Somebody's here, not sure who. They're tough, definitely skilled," someone nervously reported. "Could we have been discovered?"

"How could anyone find this place!" the leader snapped, his face pale with anger.

Silence followed as they realized they had company.

Nicole exchanged a glance with Paige, understanding that Adolph and Zane must have arrived. Subtly nodding in agreement, they began secretly working on the ropes binding their hands. Soon enough, the knots were undone, and with a flick of her wrist, Nicole dropped the ropes.

Flexing their wrists, they launched an attack on the leader before their captors could react. Caught off guard, the leader stumbled back after a solid kick.

Facing the two women standing back-to-back in fighting stances, the leader looked utterly dismayed. "This is your trap!" he exclaimed, finally realizing the situation.

The two women, who seemed unacquainted and helpless before, now worked seamlessly together, demonstrating impressive skills. With attackers outside, he understood the entire setup.

Nicole's eyes, cool and detached, swept over the leader of their assailants. "Too bad you're learning this too late," she said with a hint of irony in her voice.

As her words fell, Nicole and Paige attacked the leader again. The strategy was clear: capture the leader, and the rest would be easy. Despite Nicole's old injury hindering her abilities, their coordination was flawless, surprising their foe with their resilience and skill.

"You fools, attack!" the leader barked, frustration clear in his voice after receiving a solid kick from Nicole.

His command seemed to awaken his henchmen from a trance, who until now had underestimated the two women. They charged, fists and feet flying.

Initially, Nicole and Paige managed to keep their cool, but the onslaught gradually wore them down.

"Mrs. Johnston!" Paige cried out as she saw Nicole stagger from a blow. She swiftly kicked an attacker away and rushed to Nicole's side. "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine..." Nicole shook her head with a mixture of

frustration and resignation. "This injury... it's becoming a liability," she admitted, a trace of bitterness in her tone. In her prime, these adversaries would have been no match for her.

Paige, now protective and vigilant, stayed close to Nicole, balancing the need to defend both of them. She silently hoped for their backup to arrive soon.

The enemies, knowing time was running short, intensified their attack. They aimed to capture Nicole before any help could arrive. They knew that with her as a hostage, they would gain a significant advantage.

As the fight grew fiercer, the sounds of approaching reinforcements grew louder. Both sides pushed themselves to the limit.

Suddenly, with a thunderous crash, the door burst open, and Adolph's team charged in.

"Mrs. Johnston!" Adolph immediately scanned the room for Nicole, his relief palpable upon seeing her unharmed.

The arrival of Adolph and his team shifted the dynamics drastically. The Eastern Falcon gang, realizing they were outnumbered, struggled even more desperately.

"Nobody move if you don't want to die!" The command from Adolph echoed through the room, freezing everyone in place.
