Chapter 1881
Charmine's heart sank at this discovery.
Robert, not long after, caught a whiff of the same gaseous scent and warned, "Sis, I smell gas!" "Yeah, I smell it
too."
Charmine sensed the gravity of the situation, and her face looked serious." We must find the cause and fix it soon.
Otherwise, all of us will die here!"
The Jordans were struck with anxiety upon hearing these words.
They had no idea what was taking place, but Charmine had already diagnosed the problem, which was an
impressive feat on its own.
The Jordans thus believed Charmine and followed her lead.
Charmine looked at Robert. "Robert, take Mother to check the left-wing. If there's a crack in the pipe, fix it right

Charmine supported Senior Jordan and said, "Grandpa, we'll go to check the right-wing!" "Okay."
Charmine then instructed the maids, "All of you, go and check the backyard.
"Yes, Madam!"
Hence, everyone was split into three groups to search and repair any leakages.
All of a sudden...
"Argh!" a shrill cry was heard coming from the gate, just after they took a few steps.
Lily, not believing Charmine, had grabbed the metal gate and instantly jolted. It felt as though she had been struck
by lightning, and her head buzzed at the shock.
At that time, she had held onto Amelia's hand, thus she had electrocuted her daughter as well.
With Lily’s last sense of rationality, she retrieved her hand. Following that, both of them fell onto the ground with a
thud as they panicked.
Robert and Joey heard the cry, but they did not even look back.
Lily, after all, had insisted on trying to get out. She was lucky to be alive!
Senior Jordan, on the other hand, felt terrible at the sound. He turned around and asked Charmine, "Charmine, why
don’t we ask them to join us?"
After all, they were his son's wife and daughter. Felix was at work, yet his wife and daughter were in danger. As his
father, he would hold it against himself.
Charmine continued to walk forward with Senior Jordan. She looked around and did not care. "They were rather
loud, Grandpa. They should be fine."
In other words, she would leave them to die.
Senior Jordan sighed. Thinking of how everyone was also in danger, he could not do anything else.
Lily and Amelia looked as if they were half-dead. They laid flat on their backs as the strands of their hair spiked
upward.

The first thing Lily did was to look at Amelia. "Amelia, are you alright?"
Amelia pushed her away angrily and growled, "Hurry up and call Tiffany.
Ask her what's happening!" 1
She agreed to help them out, so why could they not even leave?!
Lily nodded instantly. When she picked up her phone, she found out that her phone had no signal-she just could not
make any calls.
The pieces finally clicked in Amelia's mind at that moment, and she slammed her fists onto the ground harshly.
"D*mn it! We've been bluffed!"
Lily's eyes went dull. "What are you saying?"
Amelia looked at Lily angrily. "Didn't you hear what Charmine said? If this goes on, everyone will die here! We can't
get out, either! Tiffany, that putrid woman, has trapped us here and wants us to die with Charmine while she'll reap
the benefits of victory!"
Amelia clenched her fists and exuded deep hatred and bitterness. 2
That evil woman was utterly ruthless.
She should not have believed Tiffany yesterday!
