Chapter 821
“Buzz off!”
The subordinate immediately turned and left.
The empty room fell silent once again.
After a while, another subordinate suddenly rushed in and reported, “Mr. Silvermoon, Lucas is flying a plane
personally to help with the rescue. Lochlan's fire engine had also arrived at the scene.”
Silvermoon sneered, “So what? The fire spread long ago, and not even God could save them now.”
Meanwhile, the temperature had risen significantly in Imperial Hotel.
Howard was trembling as he was choking on the smoke. His throat was burning, and he was in pain.
Yet, he had just carried a colleague out again with difficulty. The quilt on his body was scorched by the fire, and it
was barely protecting him from the fire.

air.
Suddenly, Howard heard a series of footsteps coming his way. His eyes lit up, and he stood up abruptly. “Who's
there? Are there firefighters nearby? We're here!”
Right then, he heard a cracking sound. A piece of security door was damaged by the fire, and it was falling down
from above.
He then looked up frightenedly and saw the door falling from right above.
At the most critical moment, an agile figure came in from the window of the corridor and kicked away the security
door that was on fire.
The security door slammed into the wall heavily and made another loud bang. The impact had even left a black
mark on the white-colored wall.
Howard raised his gaze and saw a familiar figure dressed in a hospital gown.
“Lyn?” Howard was in shock.
He then quickly regained his composure and realized that Ashlyn had a soaked sheet over her body. The sheet was
so wet that water was dripping down onto the floor. Still, he couldn't help but yell, “It's dangerous here! Leave
now!”
Ashlyn turned around and shot him a cold glance. After that, she looked at the unconscious Imperial Hotel
employees behind him. I know all these people!
She smirked and uttered coldly, “Howard, how are you still conscious when all of them had passed out? I think you
owe me an explanation.”
Howard's face, which had blackened by the thick smoke, suddenly turned pale. “Lyn, I—”
“I hope that you can give me a valid explanation.” Ashlyn shot Howard an icy look and shouted at a red helicopter
outside the building, “Send some men in here to rescue these people!”
A few bulky men jumped in from the red helicopter and brought the unconscious employees toward the window.

“Once you guys have rescued the people on this floor, go upstairs!” Ashlyn instructed. Upon hearing that, the bulky
men carried out her order.
Those men were deft and quick. It was as if they were trained soldiers.
The staff hostel was divided into two floors. Thus, the upper floor was also filled with hotel employees. The
customers, on the other hand, were all on the other floors. The firefighters were rescuing the customers first
because that was Imperial Hotel's policy.
Ashlyn wanted to rescue her employees on her own.
Although she was dressed in a hospital gown, her presence was still rather imposing.
Even though she suffered from injuries to her arm and forehead, it was as if she couldn't feel a thing.
As she was going through the rooms with Howard, the fire was burning fiercely. However, she was calm and
collected.
At the same time, Howard was feeling incredibly guilty. This is all my fault. I'm the reason why Imperial Hotel is on
fire. I've also put my beloved colleagues' lives at risk. W-What am I going to do?
Bang!
Suddenly, another loud bang rang out. Due to the raging fire, a beam on that floor had collapsed.
