Dark Revenge Of An Unwanted Wife: The Twins Are Not Yours!

Chapter 313: Finding Morgan III

Ewan willed his heart to remain calm when he finally heard the ticking sound, a sound that couldn’t possibly be a clock’s because of the weight of each tick and its regularity.

He knew what it was, knew when the realization of the same flashed across Athena’s eyes; became amazed when that realization shifted to a deathly calm, a mirror of his own feelings.

"So I was right. Morgan did really set a trap. Someone did inform him of our coming." Athena stated calmly, while her eyes left Ewan to search for the ticking time bomb. Hopefully, they would be able to deactivate it before it exploded.

"Where do you think it was kept?"

"I don’t think that matters." Ewan uttered, even though his eyes searched too for the bomb. His right leg was already swerving to the location behind him, where he thought he was hearing the sound loudest.

"Why so?" Athena queried, already following Ewan’s lead.

This time, Ewan didn’t answer. He rather followed his instincts, which led him to a corner of the room they hadn’t seen before because of its positioning; it was darker than the rest of the room, like shadows were congregating there.

That was where Ewan found the bomb, nestled to a pink Barney doll.

His heart finally shook, when he discovered that they had barely seven seconds to clear the building—not enough time to defuse the bomb.

"Athena, run!"

His calmness broke, and with insane agility, he grabbed Athena’s hand and ran like their lives depended on it. For their lives did actually depend on it.

Unfortunately, the door that had led them into the room was shut tight for some reason.

Athena started to panic, counting down the time in her head. They had barely four seconds left!

Ewan, without having the luxury to think, took a few steps back and kicked the door with all his might. The door fell flat to the other side of the room, giving him the hope to cling to life.
