The Reunion After Seven Years

Chapter 170 Not To Take The Risk

The sense of unease rose again, this time more strongly. Passing quickly through the first floor, Kerr directly went up the stairs to the platform on the second floor. His heart pounded as his fear almost unmanned him when he immediately recognized Nicole, who seemed unconscious and was tied up against a concrete pillar.

"Nicole?" he called on her as he quickened his pace towards her direction. Kerr felt his throat tightened when she did not respond, and her eyes remained close.

Kim intuitively stood beside them in a protective stance while he swiftly observed their surroundings vigilantly and not even daring to relax a little.

He knew that the storm was yet to come, thinking further that an ambush was usually imminent in this kind of scenario. But strangely, it was so tranquil around that it somehow confused him.

"Master Kerr, there seems to be something wrong. We need to get out of here as soon as possible,"

Kim warned him apprehensively. The weird stillness of the place was getting on his nerves.

But Kerr remained mute. Not hearing him respond, Kim swiftly turned around and noticed that Kerr had been staring at the place behind Nicole, motionless as if transfixed.

Sensing something amiss with Kerr, he purposely eased his way near him. Glancing at the direction of Kerr's gaze, he couldn't help but roll his eyes in shock.

"Master, you can leave now. I will take Miss Ning out of here safely,"

Kim urged Kerr while cautiously looking at the time bomb in front of him, assessing it mentally. But apparently, Kerr didn't want to leave yet.

He merely turned a deaf ear to Kim. Crouching down, he calmly stared at the countdown on the time bomb without a trace of anxiety in his eyes. He figured out that Nicole and the explosive were connected. And once they cut the rope on her, the bomb would explode.

"Master!"

There was not much time left before the hour hand. Kim looked worried as he fought hard the panic fueling him. He couldn't let Kerr have an accident, but he also knew that if Nicole hadn't been safe, Kerr wouldn't have left the vicinity.
