“Shit, shit, shit!”

He saw me, he saw me, he saw me, he saw me, he saw me.

I had felt a surge of relief, thinking I’d almost lost him, but as soon as I looked up again, Ethan’s shadow appeared in front of me.

Barely holding back a scream, I turned and sprinted further into the alley as fast as I could.

‘Damn it, I almost had a heart attack….’

Worrying about my fake identity as “Assassin Lily” being exposed could come later. For now, my priority was escape.

If Ethan caught me now, there was no doubt he would question me about the child growing in my belly. Above all else, I couldn’t afford to lose this child.
