chapter1823

As the stone door creaked open just a crack, two figures swiftly emerged, one after the other. It was Mirabella and a disguised Curtis. Seeing them, Wyatt let out a sigh of relief. "Ms. Mirabella, Curtis, you finally made it out," he said. If they had taken any longer, James might have blown up the mountain in a fit of rage for his beloved.

Mirabella nodded at Wyatt and made a beeline for James, grabbing his arm and whispering, "Let's go." James gave her a quick glance but pulled her close, wrapping his arm firmly around her waist without asking a single question. Then, in a tone as cold as ice, he instructed Wyatt, "Blow it up."

Wyatt eagerly rubbed his hands together. "Got it," he replied. He had a few of those new compressed bombs that could flatten this place.

"Wait." Mirabella quickly realized what he was about to do and called out to Wyatt, "No need to blow it up. The mess inside is enough for them to deal with." Besides, [HRTL] was part of the first base, and she couldn't bring herself to burn bridges, even though she wanted nothing more than to destroy this place.

James raised an eyebrow at her. "It's not good to be merciful to your enemies."

"Who said I was anything but kind," Mirabella sighed.

Curtis, standing nearby, looked confused. "" When you poisoned a bunch of people inside the base, where was this kindness?

"Just make sure they can't come out for now. Don't destroy the main gate mechanism," James added.

Mirabella had no ions. "Alright, blow it up."

At that moment, the stone door began to open again, as those inside pursued them. They didn't waste any more time.

Wyatt was a tad disappointed he couldn't use his compressed bombs, but before leaving, he tossed two micro-bombs. Just before the stone door fully opened, he pressed the detonator.

Boom-

A deafening explosion rocked the air as the mountain wall beside the stone door was blasted apart. Debris cascaded down, completely burying the entrance.

*When they returned to the small town, the car was already parked by the roadside. Mirabella opened the back door, ready to hop in but paused for a moment when she saw who was inside. She glanced up at James, who hadn't gotten in yet.

James seemed to read her mind and explained, "While waiting for you, I bumped into your friend."

Ah, that made sense. Mirabella nodded, thanked him, and bent down to get into the car.

"Nellie."

Nellie, with her arm injured, looked

Rea, how did you know I'd be here?"

James, settling into the driver's seat, raised an eyebrow at the nickname, casting

a meaningful glance in the rearview mirror before starting the car.

Mirabella caught his eye in the mirror and thought, "Well, there goes that alias." Keeping her cool, she turned her head and said, "I installed a tracking app on your phone." Read complete version only at Find?Novel.net

Nellie gave a wry smile. "I should have known nothing gets past you."

"So, are you ready to tell me why you had to go in there?" Mirabella asked directly.

Nellie stayed quiet, her gaze fixed on the window. Silence filled the car.

Seeing her reluctance, Mirabella sighed softly and said, "Alright, whenever you're ready to talk, I'm here."

Nellie's fingers, resting on her knees, relaxed slightly. Just then, Mirabella's phone rang. She took out hesitated for a moment wher she saw the caller ID, glanced at Nettie, and then answered the call.
