Chapter 904

Odell soon reached the living hall.

The huge building had a lot of rooms.

He scanned around and asked, “Where is she?”

Thomas looked at him in silence as if he was carried away by his thoughts.

Odell strode up to him and tugged his collar. He shouted,” WHERE IS SHE?!”

Thomas regained his composure and said, “She's in the room facing the east on the third floor.”

Odell pushed him away and strode up the stairs.

Thomas watched his nervous brother stride up the stairs and asked, “Brother, there are bombs in every other room

other than hers. Are you sure you want to go there?”

Odell glanced at him and continued forward.

Thomas grinned. “Are you not afraid I'm luring you into a trap?”

Odell continued to ignore him and strode up the stairs.

Thomas’ smile faded, and he returned to his frosty self.

He murmured, “Even if you're not afraid of bombs, you'll resent her when you see her.”

Back in the room on the third floor, Sylvia struggled to move her body across the wide and messy bed.

She pushed the shirt that Thomas left behind on the ground as she wanted to recover her clothes.

Thomas stripped her naked and tossed all her clothes on the ground.

She wriggled to the edge of the bed

and tried to reach her clothes on the ground. Half of her torso was hanging over the edge as she put her hand out.

Before she could reach her clothes, she lost balance and fell from the bed

Thud!

The door opened.

Sylvia turned to the door and saw Odell's towering figure. Her face turned pale.

Odell also froze when he saw the naked Sylvia.

The air went quiet for a moment.

Sylvia mustered all her strength and said, “O-Odell, ...”

She should be happy that he was here but when she saw the look on his face, she was at a loss for words.

She was naked on top of her and Thomas‘ clothes. They spent a night together and if she claimed nothing happened between

them, would Odell believe her?

His towering figure approached her when she was choking at her words.

He put his warm hands over her waist and thighs before he lifted her.

He then picked up her clothes and put them on her one by one.

After covering her body quickly, he hugged her and whispered,” It's okay, I’m here. I'm here now.”

Sylvia burst out into tears. She laid weak in his arms and wept.“ Odell, he

gave me some pills and it robbed me of my strength. He stripped me naked and left his clothes here. Nothing

happened last night, believe me.”

“I know. | know,” he answered. He carried her in his arms and wanted to leave.

The moment he walked out of the room with Sylvia, he heard beeps from multiple directions.

It was the countdown from the bombs!

“What's that noise?” Sylvia asked.

Odell ran to the stairs without answering.

He carried her to the second floor and just before they headed down to the first, he saw a bomb strapped to the handrail.

The timer on it was in its final thirty seconds.

He moved.
