Chapter 146

Arabella lay motionless on the hospital bed with her eyes wide open. The steady stream of tears from her eyes told a tale of sheer terror.

Thankfully, Vivienne was masked at the moment because if Arabella let Vivienne see the fear reflected in her own eyes, she might have wished for death right there.

Vivienne squinted slightly at Brody, silently questioning his intentions.

“Two miniature bombs have been forcefully lodged into her body, one on either side of her abdomen.”

Upon seeing Vivienne’s eyes harden, a smug smile appeared on Brody’s face. “Relax. At most, she’d be the only one to blow up; we’d be safe. I value my life, after all.”

Vivienne’s eyes turned frostier.

This damn psychopath!

“We compete on who performs the surgery faster and more precisely. Whoever can extract the bomb first with an endoscope wins. By the way, I’ve set the bombs to detonate in one minute. Be careful; a slight mishap could trigger an early explosion.”

“Right here?” Vivienne surveyed the hall with a furrowed brow.

“Don’t worry, a sterilized operating room and sanitized equipment have all been prepared.” Brody responded while gesturing for Vivienne to proceed.

Upon Brody’s signal, the chubby man grasped Arabella’s bed and wheeled her into an operating room.

Two endoscope apparatuses were ready in the operating room.
