The Billionaire CEO Wants to Marry Me Every Day-Chapter 140: Building Explosion
Damian Knight ran in with a severe expression.
Summer Monroe stood up in surprise, "What’s going on...?"
"There’s been an explosion, we have to go!" Damian Knight grabbed her hand and started running out.
The people in the dressing room froze for a couple of seconds, then followed them out.
Summer Monroe was pulled directly out of the dressing room by Damian Knight, and saw chaos outside, with flames licking down the stairs.
"Gasoline! Someone poured gasoline!" screamed someone running past the temporary dressing room.
While running towards the main exit with Damian Knight, Summer Monroe asked, "How did this happen? Is someone playing a prank?"
Just as Damian Knight was about to speak, his phone rang in his pocket; it was a call from Isaac Ross.
He immediately answered the call, and Isaac’s anxious voice came through, "Knight! Where are you? That guy was rescued, and he left a note saying you’ll definitely die today, so we shouldn’t waste any effort."
"I understand. Call the police immediately, there’s been an explosion at the Stanton Group Building."
"What?! Explosion! Damn! The rescuer must know you’re there and orchestrated this... Are you alright? We’re coming right away!"
"Don’t worry, I’m fine for now; hanging up." Damian Knight hung up and said to Summer Monroe while running, "It’s not a prank, it’s a malicious attack, let’s go!"
Summer Monroe didn’t question further, instead gripped Damian Knight’s hand tighter and sped up towards the main exit.
However, when they were just a dozen meters from the exit, they noticed the crowd had stopped moving at the doorway.
"What’s going on? How do we get out?" Damian Knight asked coldly.
A little assistant ran over, sobbing and gasping for breath, "The door, the door is locked... no one can get out. The fire’s spreading further down, and there might be another explosion... Young Master Knight, Miss Sadie, are we going to die here?"
Summer Monroe released Damian Knight, held the assistant’s hand, and reassured, "Don’t worry, we’re not going to die here. If the door is locked, then we’ll smash it open!" 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
Where there is life, there is hope. Summer Monroe believed, her fate shouldn’t end here, not now, not like this!
She instructed the little assistant to stay put, taking Damian Knight and pushing toward the door.
Several security personnel were trying to pry the door open, while anxious ones had already lifted stools and were smashing them against the glass door.
But to Summer Monroe’s surprise, no matter how hard these people tried, the seemingly fragile glass door didn’t have a single sign of damage.
One of the security guards threw down his tool in frustration and hopelessly shook his head, "It’s useless... after the terrorist attack abroad the year before last, all the glass in the company was replaced with A-grade hardened glass stronger than diamond; not even a bomb could tear through it..."
Summer Monroe stepped up to the security guard and spoke coldly, "Don’t lose hope! What’s locking the door? If it’s a lock, just pry it open."
The security guard glanced at her and replied dejectedly, "It’s not that simple. This is a smart door; I tried countless times in the security room earlier, but the smart system is broken, it won’t open..."
Just as Summer Monroe was about to speak, Damian Knight said, "Where’s the security room?"
The security guard still feared Damian Knight, didn’t dare to waste words, pointed upstairs, and said, "In the first room on the second floor..."
Damian Knight nodded slightly, "The program might be tampered with, I’ll go check it out, you stay here."
"No! I’m going with you!"
"Don’t take risks at a time like this, stay here!"
