章 35: Chapter 35

As we brainstormed, Maya revealed that Mr. Blackwood had a network of underground facilities and secret allies. He was planning to use Liam as leverage to gain control over a powerful organization.

"We need to get to Liam before Mr. Blackwood does," Maya said, her eyes locked on mine. "We can't let him use Liam as a pawn in his game."

I nodded, determination coursing through my veins. "I'll do whatever it takes to protect Liam," I said. "Let's get to work."

Maya smiled, a fierce glint in her eye. "Let's take down Mr. Blackwood and his empire," she said. "Together."

We spent the rest of the night gathering resources and information, preparing for the battle ahead. I knew it wouldn't be easy, but I was ready to fight for Liam's safety and our freedom.

As the sun rose on a new day, I felt a sense of purpose and determination. I was ready to face whatever lay ahead, knowing that Maya was by my side.
