249 Incident

Amanda's smile seemed a bit forced. Emily was getting more and more worried. “Why don’t you ask a male colleague to go with you? It’s really not safe for you to go alone. Better be careful.”

Amanda laughed bitterly. “Emily, do you know who’s looking for me?”

Emily shook her head.

“It’s the local gang,” Amanda said. “But these people are easy to deal with. They saw our concert was a huge hit and wanted to collect some protection money. I just need to give them some cash. But I can't take you back to the hotel tonight. You should stay here at this hotel, don’t go back. You’re pregnant, you need to be careful.”

Emily nodded. “I understand.”

“I’m leaving now. Confirm your return time with me and send me a message. I’ll book your tickets.”

With that, Amanda hurried away.

Berlin was chilly at dawn, and Emily couldn’t help but shiver. She had a bad feeling.

She went to the front desk and booked a room, took the elevator, swiped her card, and opened the door.
