A single move incapacitated Jack.
Cameron was also struggling. He propped himself up with one hand on the table, refusing to collapse. The burst
of energy in his body earlier had accelerated the blood loss from his wound, and he could already feel his vision
starting to blur.
He quickly approached Laura and untied her.
“Cameron!”
Laura suddenly got up and threw herself into Cameron’s arms,
Cameron sucked in a breath of pain as his wound stirred.
Laura only then realized that Cameron was still seriously injured.
She quickly pulled herself from him and apologized, “I'm sorry.”
“You foolish woman.
Cameron chuckled hoarsely. Then his gaze turned cold as he looked at Jack.
“Step aside-that guy isn’t dead yet.”

Laura’s heart trembled. The phrase “foolish woman” seemed to bring her back to seven years ago. She
wondered if Cameron knew something.
Before she could react, Cameron limped over to Jack.
Jack’s pupils had started to dilate, a sign that his life was nearing its end. However, his limp left hand was tightly
clenched as if holding onto something.
Cameron furrowed his brows. He sensed something unusual and instantly shot a silver needle from his fingertip,
piercing Jack’s left hand.
Jack's tightly clenched hand was quickly released after the needle stimulated the nerves. In his hand was a
miniature red button, flashing incessantly.
“Oh, shit!”
Cameron's pupils contracted. He recognized it as a bomb button and that Jack had already activated it.
Explosives had been planted in the building in advance.
That was Cameron's initial reaction.
His face turned pale. He immediately used the last of his energy and rushed toward Laura. He lifted her into his
arms before she could react. He was about to run out of the classroom.
At that moment, a deafening boom cfrom underneath the building, causing the entire structure to collapse.
Cameron found himself suspended in midair, rapidly descending.

He could have easily escaped such an explosion if he were in his prime. However, his severely injured body was
unable to support any rapid and forceful movements.
He could only follow as the ground collapsed, quickly plummeting toward the bottom of the building
The entire building seemed to be swallowed up by sunknown creature from the depths, sinking and kicking
up dust clouds.
Dust filled the air, and violent shockwaves spread in all directions like an earthquake. The surrounding buildings
leaned and twisted.
Once the shockwaves dissipated, the original location of the building had beca complete ruin.
“Am | dead?”
After an unknown amount of time, Laura’s weak voice suddenly sounded beneath the dark rubble. She felt
incredibly light, unable to summon any strength.
They were surrounded by pitch-black darkness. They couldn't even see their own hands.
“I almost died, but... I didn’t...”
Cameron's hoarse voice cfrom above Laura's head.
“Cameron!”

Laura immediately regained her senses at the sound of his voice. Only then did she recall the explosion they had
just experienced. She couldn't believe that they were still alive.
Laura was now fully alert. She immediately realized they were trapped in a narrow space, with Cameron
seemingly pressed against her.
“You foolish woman, as long as you're awake...”
Cameron chuckled. His voice sounded even more strained than before.
Laura sensed something was amiss, and her heart skipped a beat.
She quickly asked, “Cameron, are you okay?”
“What could possibly happen to me?”
Cameron laughed.
Laura breathed a sigh of relief.
However, before she could fully relax, her right hand grazed something sticky beside her.
Her heart tensed once again.
She moved her fingertips, carefully feeling the unknown liquid. Her heart trembled the longer she touched it. She
thought it felt too much like blood.
