Scott immediately issued orders, leaning against the car window and saying, “You can’t go in. There’s a gasoline leak in the car. It might explode before the bomb does!”

Dexter knelt in front of Josie, ignoring everything else, and focused solely on checking the timer on the bomb beneath them.

Dexter finally glanced at her with a hint of helplessness. “If I leave, you’ll be entangled with Arnold again.”

Josie was on the verge of tears. “It’s really not my fault. He kidnapped me, and there’s also Mallory. What can I do?”
