Later that night Emily left the building alone.
The parking lot was quiet.
Too quiet.
As she walked toward the street, she noticed something strange.
A car slowly moving nearby.
Emily frowned.
"That's weird."
The car suddenly accelerated.
Straight toward her.
Emily froze.
"Wait—!"
Headlights blinded her.
But before the car reached her—
Someone pulled her backward.
Alexander.
The car sped past them and disappeared into the street.
Emily's heart pounded.
"What just happened?!"
Alexander's expression was colder than she had ever seen.
"That wasn't an accident."
Emily felt fear rising.
"You mean…"
Alexander nodded.
"Someone tried to hurt you."
