Chapter 586

Chapter: 586

“T believe you. I can see the sincerity and determination in your eyes. Well, I’m going in now.”

Leon moved to follow Millie as she made her way into the building. However, they barely took two steps

forward when a scream rang in the area, followed by a gruff voice.

“Don’t follow her, Mr. Thomas. Stay there and let her go up here by herself.”

However, Leon continued to follow Millie. How would Millie get away later if he did not go in with her?

He had just leamed that Celeste had successfully driven her out of the family. It seemed the woman

was being punished again. This time, though, Marcus was adamant that Millie was the one at fault.

For this reason, Leon had doubts that Marcus would come to save Millie.

“Mr. Thomas, didn’t you hear me? Take another step, and we’ll blow up your fiancée.”

“Don’t come here, Leon! Please! I don’t want to die!” Lois cried.

The sound of footsteps from behind Millie abruptly ceased. She hesitated for a second, then quickly

entered the building and headed for the upper floors. Judging from the noise, the kidnappers and Lois

were on the third floor.

Leon could do nothing but watch her frail form until she was out of his sight. It seemed as if a limb were

being torn from his body as she walked away.

As expected, the second floor was empty. Then, when she reached the third floor, someone grabbed

her from behind a wall and held a knife to her neck.

“Continue walking. Don’t tum around.”

Millie felt her heart racing, but she told herself to calm down and kept walking.

Lois’ expression showed worry as Millie came up to her with a man behind her holding a knife to her

throat.

“Millie, you shouldn’t have come here.”

Millie clenched her hands when she noticed the rope restraining Lois’ hands and feet and the bomb

around her waist.

“Didn’t you want me to switch places with her? I’m here now. Take the bomb off her and let her go.”

“No, Millie. Don’t do it. They’ll kill you.”

The man who was holding a knife to Millie’s throat turned to the other kidnapper.

“Take the bomb off her and bring it here. If either of you moves, I’ll cut her into pieces.”

The second kidnapper quickly did as he was told. He removed the bomb from Lois’ body, picked it up

gently, and began to attach it to Millie.

Millie lowered her head as the man behind her reached for the time bomb’s remote control with his free

hand. Not wanting to take chances by acting hastily, she remained perfectly still.
