“I’ll help you with the cooking.”

“I can’t explain right now. I’m sorry to involve you in this. Please trust that we mean no harm and will protect you,” Millie reassured her.

Marcus took aim through the window and fired. He was a skilled marksman, ensuring that every shot hit its target.

The gunfire persisted, but none of Ryan’s men could breach the room.

Suddenly, a dog’s barking echoed from outside.

The old woman stood up hastily, cracked the door open, and peered out.

“Waldo, it’s dangerous. Hide!”

“Woof, woof!”
