Sophia suddenly rushed out and stood between Michael and Quinton, blocking the former behind her while she pleaded, “Please let me talk to him, alright?”

Michael had no choice but to release his clenched fist and step to the side while glaring at Quinton.

She took two steps forward and stood in front of the man who had accompanied her for two years.

She never thought that he would actually come!

Her throat tightened. She had thousands of words in her mind, but they were all stuck in her throat.

Back then, she had cruelly abandoned him and unhesitatingly left with Cooper. But now, he was actually willing to venture into such a dangerous place after listening to only her words.

Quinton took her into his embrace without saying anything.

He initially thought that he would never see her again for his whole life. When he learned of her injuries, he secretly sneaked into Cethos at great risk, but he’d never thought that he would receive her request for help so soon.

Looking at the two people hugging each other, Michael nearly rushed at them, but he restrained himself in the end.

Quinton embraced her, greedily wishing that he could hold on to her warmth for a longer time, but he suppressed his urge to do so. After a fleeting moment, he said to her, “Take me to her.”

 

Hearing that, she returned to her senses and brought him to the entrance of the building. Everyone gave way to them.

Cooper glared at Quinton, and the latter gave him a smug smile. “Mr. Michel, long time no see.”

 

Cooper clenched his teeth. If it weren’t for the fact that his granddaughter’s life was still in danger upstairs, he would have chopped him up into minced meat in a matter of minutes.

Quinton strode to the building while listening to Michael explaining about the situation upstairs. Justin suddenly sent them a message from above. “Celie is running out of patience. I can’t hold her back any longer!”
