“You don’t need it?” When Dakota heard his answer, she was stunned. She never thought that even at this moment of life and death, Dustin would still dare to reject her. Did he really not want to live anymore?

“Dustin, don’t make decisions based on your emotions!” Dahlia tugged on his sleeve, trying to talk some sense into him. “I don’t care what crime you committed, but your life is important. The Nicholson family has connections in the military: only she can save you now!”
