Chapter 1072:
Corrine’s eyes widened, startled.
She had never seen Nate like this before—merciless, brutal, like something straight out of hell.
For a split second, she forgot to move. That was when she noticed another enemy creeping up behind him.
Without missing a beat, she flicked her wrist and sent a short knife flying. It buried itself deep in the attacker's

“See?” Corrine said smoothly. “A little slip-up, but | made it work. I'd call that a fair trade.”
The man had been hiding in the shadows, waiting for the perfect moment. He had always known Corrine was
skilled, but this level of precision caught him off guard. Her speed was something else entirely. The icy press of
the gun barrel against his temple made him stiffen. His eyes flicked to her finger resting lightly on the trigger,
