Crises in Love novel Chapter 206

The explosive sound was deafening, as if the earth itself was shaking. I watched in horror as the entire floor-to-ceiling window near the front door of my house collapsed, scattering shards of glass all over the foyer.

The noise was so loud that it left my ears ringing, and it took me a while to process what had just happened.

Hannah's first reaction was to grab me and swiftly move us out of the living room, up to the second floor. I was practically tucked under her arm as she carried me up the stairs.

She settled me in a windowless sitting room upstairs and instructed sternly, "Don’t move!" With that, she turned on her heel and swiftly ran back downstairs.

I huddled in the small sitting room upstairs, shivering. The sudden explosion had unnerved me, my heart pounding so hard that I felt unbearable, causing a dull ache that made it hard to breathe.

Soon, Hannah was back by my side, assessing my condition. "Ms. Wilburn, are you alright?"

I nodded weakly with my hand pressing over my heart.

Hannah reported, "I've called the police. Don't worry. Relax, I'm here. Trust me!"

Her face was serious as she comforted me, and I just nodded, too shocked to speak.

Honestly, I wasn't scared. I was just caught off guard. However, my heart was heavy. I couldn't understand why my world had suddenly turned upside down. It was complete chaos!

Who was after me, and what did they want?

Deep down, I had a feeling that even Jaylan was just a pawn in this game. And my so-called plans were as transparent as a glass. There was no element of surprise.

Marissa's child was missing, Marissa was dead, and the floor-to-ceiling window near the front door of my house collapsed... Were all these occurrences meant to serve as a warning to me??

Suddenly, I remembered something. I had forgotten to tell Ronan that Jaylan had taken the child.
