Chapter 2013



As if struck by lightning, Yvonne's breath turned heavy and labored. The growing flames outside the window burned intensely in her dark eyes. She knew that Christopher had already started suspecting her, and it was only a matter of time before he got rid of her.

But that well-dressed beast in disguise wanted to use her to kill the man she loved most? Dream on!

"Yvonne, if I ask you to jump down from here with me, will you be afraid?" Drew held her thin waist firmly and smiled.

"I'm not afraid." Yvonne slightly parted her lips, lipstick still smeared from their kiss. Her determined gaze met his bright eyes.

"Tsk. Can't you let your man feel a little accomplished?" Drew raised his brows and pinched the soft flesh at her waist. "Can't you be like other women, clinging to me and screaming how scared you are in the face of danger?"

“Actually, I am afraid." Yvonne stared deeply at him, full of longing. "But as long as you're here, I'm not afraid of anything."

Drew's originally frozen heart melted instantly, as if it was thrown into the sea of burning flames. He lowered his head and kissed Yvonne's lips again, saying, "Let's go!"

Then he tucked her soft body under his black trench coat and fired several shots at the glass window.

The room was already filled with smoke. They held their breaths and rushed toward the window with all their strength.

Crash!

Drew broke the glass using his back, holding Yvonne tightly as they jumped down from the fifth floor.

Flames roared into the sky before their eyes, and countless sharp shards of glass and burning embers rushed past them like a storm.

Yvonne's heart stopped for a second, and she closed her eyes in fear.
