chapter 1889


    She would still be that high-above Tiffany Jordan, the heiress of the wealthy Jordan family!


    Now, she had nothing!


    A menacing expression overtook Tiffany''s pale face, and an eerie grin spread across her face.


    "You can''t me me for anything, Charmine, now that you''ve cornered me to the edge. If you want me


    to die, I''ll drag you down with me! None of us will let go of anyone!"


    She crawled up and tore away her clothes.


    Charmine looked up and frowned.


    Tiffany had tied a timed bomb around her waist. She had been prepared for this!


    Tiffany smiled at Charmine hauntingly, her hair already tousled as though she had gone mad.


    "Come down to hell with me, Charmine! If I can''t be happy, neither can you! Ahahahahahah!"


    She smiled evilly and unblinkingly pressed the countdown button. Beeps were heard soon after, and


    red-colored numbers were disyed on the screen attached to the device.


    [10, 9, 8,7...]


    Charmine frowned.


    This woman had gone crazy!


    She turned around and was ready to leave when Tiffany, having be the madwoman she was,


    grabbed Charmine’s arm in a vice-like grip.


    Her deathly grin spread across her face. "You can''t get away, Charmine! Don''t you run away!"


    Charmine tried to get rid of her and even used her arm to attack Tiffany''s face.


    However, Tiffany was ready to bring her down with her. She grabbed Charmine tightly and would not let


    go.


    As the countdown reached thest three seconds, the beeps seemingly quickened. Just as the bomb


    was about to detonate, however...


    Two big shadows rushed over.


    Before Charmine could react, she was pulled into an enveloping embrace and was pulled a few meters


    away.


    She, along with whoever it was that embraced her, fell to the ground and rolled.

    Then—


    Thooom!


    "Aaaargh!"


    A deafening explosion was heard, yet Tiffany''s howl could still be heard amid the explosion.


    Charmine and the person embracing her were propelled


    backward due to the force of the explosion. With a thud, they fell to the ground.


    Billows of smoke rose from the mountaintop.


    Charmine reacted and looked up at the man hugging her.


    It was...


    Anthony? i


    "Anthony! W-Why are you here?" Charmine looked at him in shock.


    There was a faint grimace on Anthony''s face, yet he seemingly was unaffected by the pain that gnawed


    his body.


    He looked at her intensely and asked, "My darling, are you hurt?"


    "No."


    Charmine examined his body and asked, "You?"


    "I''m good."


    Anthony then helped Charmine up on her feet, and it was then Charmine recalled that there was


    another figure that rushed in before the explosion.


    Who was that?


    Amid her suspicion, she straightened herself before spotting a bloody figure not far away.


    The man seemed to be a youth, but he was covered with blood.


    Charmine’s pupils dted.


    The person jumping over Tiffany was Robert!


    "Robert!"


    Charmine ran toward Robert, who wasying on the ground.


    "How are you feeling? How can you be so foolish?!"


    Robert’s radiant face was covered with dust and blood. The corner of his lips was stained with blood,


    yet he could look at Charmine and feebly uttered with his remaining strength," Sis... I -I get to save you


    this time... Your b—brother did try to help you..."


    With that, he fainted in Charmine''s arms.
