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.

"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?"

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!"

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