Emma leaned forward. “Tell me what’s wrong?”
Pierce leaned forward, too. She’d see him on her screen. “Riley, I’m a friend of Emma’s. Name’s Pierce. What’s the matter? Are you in trouble?”
She ducked into an empty corridor, panting. “Are you guys following the news? Out of China?”
“Yeah.”
“It – it wasn’t the Chinese who attacked. I have proof. But someone wants war with China and is after me. I escaped one kidnapping attempt but I don’t know what to do now. Help me, please!”
Pierce looked at Emma and Raul. “I’m going after her.”
