Marlon grabbed a knife from the table, not bothering to give Athena any warning. The blade pierced her skin, deftly removing the tracker embedded within. The sight was gruesome, with bits of flesh and blood staining the metal.
Athena, tough as nails, didn't make a sound. Her forehead was slick with sweat, and her lips were pressed into a tight line, as if she might pass out at any moment.
Just a few days ago, she'd battled a high fever, and her body still hadn't fully recovered.
Marlon wasn't in the mood for any gentle gestures. He casually sprayed some antiseptic on the wound and then unceremoniously tossed her into the car parked nearby.
Because of the tracker, Tyler, who was all the way in Greenfield, noticed Athena's signal vanish abruptly.
When he heard that Marlon was alive and had brazenly taken out government agents, his face went pale.
Had Marlon kidnapped Athena?
She was the one person who had dealt Marlon the biggest blow of his life, and Tyler knew Marlon wouldn't let her off easily.
Tyler immediately headed to the last known location of the tracker, while the police launched a massive manhunt for Marlon.
Marlon had become a most-wanted fugitive, with law enforcement nationwide eager to capture him, and the government on high alert to prevent him from escaping the country.
Tyler was a bundle of nerves, feeling like his head might explode. But the last known location of the tracker was deep in a forest—a dense, untouched wilderness. It would require a substantial police presence to comb through it.
Over a thousand officers ventured into the woods, with helicopters patrolling from above.
The authorities had cast a wide net, just waiting for any sign of Marlon.

The readers' comments on the novel: Dear Ex-wife Marry Me novel (Maja)
Author, would you story about Ryan settling down and another story on Eric regaining his body and memories back from Patrick, and Eric also settling down as I find it so disheartening for him to have gone through what he went through at the research institute, and I'll like for him to get his "golden boy" life back though, not at the detriment of Ian....
When will the author update to finish Beck's story? What about Dylan and Tyler's love lives? Also, I'll like the author to write on Wilma and Elvis ending up together as she was quite persistent in pursuing him. And Shawn's story, Cornelia Sullivan and Omar Casson. Also, a little write-up on Jeff (Ian's assistant) love life, too. Thanks, author for updating....
