The Billionaire CEO Wants to Marry Me Every Day-Chapter 143: Moment of Life and Death

"Watch out!" Damian Knight instinctively shielded Summer Monroe’s head, his arm got hit by debris, leaving a patch of raw and bloody flesh.

Summer Monroe was startled, quickly pulling Damian Knight’s hand to check the injury.

However, before she could see clearly, Damian Knight pulled his hand back.

"You..."

Summer Monroe just started to speak when Damian Knight interrupted, "I’m fine, keep going! You won’t know until you try!"

Summer Monroe’s heart was filled with worry, but she glanced at the computer and ultimately said nothing, coldly pulling back her chair and sitting down again.

The ceiling kept dropping debris and flames, it wouldn’t be long before this room was destroyed.

She couldn’t worry about anything else. She had to seize the time immediately, any slower and the room would collapse, and then there’d be no way to open that door.

"Bang—" Yet another huge piece of debris fell from above, landing less than half a meter behind Summer Monroe’s chair.

Summer Monroe seemed oblivious, biting her lower lip hard, her fingers flying over the keyboard, her entire being exuded a fierce determination.

She needed to hack into the opponent’s terminal and open that door!

Even if it wasn’t for herself, even just for the group of people downstairs, she had to do her utmost!

Moreover, she wasn’t fighting alone.

Summer Monroe glanced at Damian Knight, who shielded her head with a wooden board, then focused back on her operation.

Summer Monroe concentrated all her energy, and in less than five minutes, she finally breached the opponent’s firewall.

At that moment, the room was already catching fire.

Damian Knight immediately walked to the window, used his arm strength, and tore down all the curtains. He stomped out the burning parts with his foot, then used the curtain fabric to extinguish other burning areas one by one.

But the trouble was, because of the explosion above, flames kept falling down, the fire seemed endless, and before long, Damian Knight was drenched in sweat, as if he had been soaked in water.

But he did not pause, wiping the sweat obstructing his sight on his eyelashes with his hand, then continued putting out the fire.

And just at that moment...

Summer Monroe finally cracked the opponent’s firewall and began searching for their terminal.

But the opponent was very cunning, setting up several decoy programs, tricking Summer Monroe several times into entering the wrong terminal.

At this point, the fire inside the room was becoming uncontrollable.

"Summer, we need to hurry! If we don’t make it in five minutes, we’ll have to leave, this place is about to collapse!" Damian Knight said as he fought the flames.

His handsome face was stained with soot, making it hard to discern his original appearance.

But even so, his powerful aura could not be hidden. It was an intimidating presence, cold and resolute, like the snow on a mountain peak, seemingly able to contend with the god of fire.

Summer Monroe gritted her teeth and said, "Ten minutes! Just give me ten more minutes! I will find him!"

However, as soon as her words fell, a piece of burning wood suddenly dropped from above.

"Look out!" Damian Knight hurriedly rushed towards Summer Monroe, but it was clearly too late.

Luckily, Summer Monroe reacted swiftly, quickly getting up from the chair, spinning at the waist and delivering a fierce kick with ice-cold determination, splitting the burning plank in half, which fell to the ground causing sparks to fly everywhere.

"Are you okay?!" Damian Knight finally arrived, grabbing her hand worriedly and said, "We can’t stay here any longer, we need to leave immediately!"

"No! I’m almost done, I just need ten more minutes!"
