Arielle Moore and Vinson Nightshire

Chapter 143

Chapter 143 A Matter Of Life Or Death

“Beware!” Vinson’s immediate reflex action was to cover Arielle’s head with his bare arm. Unfortunately,

his arm got hit by the debris and was severely injured.

Terrified by the gory sight, Arielle quickly checked on him.

Before she could have a look at it, he withdrew his arm.

“You…”

He interrupted her, “I’m fine. Quick, keep trying and see if it works.”

Though worried sick, Arielle kept quiet and tried to focus her attention on the computer. Frowning, she

returned to her seat.

Debris and residual flames kept falling from the floor above. Soon, the entire room was on fire before

they realized it.

At that critical moment, Arielle could not be distracted. I must hurry up before the room gets burnt

down. By then, the computers will be completely destroyed. Consequently, the glass door will remain

shut forever.

Thump! Another big piece of concrete dropped and hit the chair not too far from Arielle.

Biting her lips, she ignored it and continued typing away on the keyboard.

She was determined to hack into the attacker’s terminal and open that dreaded door.

Even if it’s not for me, I must do my very best and fight till the end for all the innocent lives still trapped

in this building. After all, I’m not alone.

She took a quick peek at Vinson, who was covering her head with a block of wood, then channeled her

attention back to the complicated operation.

With grit and full concentration, Arielle managed to break the attacker’s firewall within five minutes.

At the same moment, fire had started devouring the room.

Vinson walked to the window and pulled down all the curtains forcefully. He stepped on them to

extinguish the parts which were on fire. Then, he used them to douse the fire on other areas of the

room.

However, it was more like a never-ending story. The earlier explosion on the floor above had caused

tiny flames to keep falling into their room. Sweating profusely, Vinson was just not able to stamp out all

the flames before they grow again.

Persistently, he wiped away the sweat that blurred his vision and kept fighting the fire.

Just in the nick of time…

Arielle managed to break through another firewall and began searching for the attacker’s terminal.

The latter was so devious. A few similar codes were set up to mask the actual location of the terminal.

Arielle fell into their traps a few times and made several mistakes.

At this point in time, the fire started burning out of control.

“Arielle, we’ve got not much time left to spare. If we don’t leave in five minutes, this building is going to This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

collapse!” Vinson warned while putting out the flames.

Covered with ashes, his handsome face could hardly be recognized.

Even so, he was still alluding an extremely strong aura. Looking decisive, intimidating, and hostile, he

stood firm like a mountain, ready to battle with the fire until the very end.

Arielle said, gritting her teeth, “Ten minutes, give me another ten minutes! I’ll sure be able to find it.”

Meanwhile, a piece of burning wood suddenly fell from the top.

“Watch out!” Vinson attempted to leap to her side, but he was too late.

Fortunately, Arielle was fast to react. She rose to her feet, leaned sideways, and performed a fierce

spinning kick which successfully broke the block into two.

“You’re not hurt, are you?” Fretting, Vinson held her hand as soon as he got to her side. “We can’t stay

here any longer. We have to leave immediately.”

“No! I’ll be done in a jiffy, just give me ten more minutes!”
