The Million-Dollar Heart novel Chapter 188

On the freeway to Havenwood, a luxury sedan was speeding along.

Inside, Percival's face was grim. A tense aura was radiating from him.

His fingers were flying over his laptop keyboard.

Leopold, sitting in the front row, was watching Felix's live stream on his phone.

He urged the driver anxiously. "Thomas, hurry up! We only have three minutes left."

They were originally heading to Rivenwood when they were ambushed on the road.

Their attackers didn't confront them directly. They just delayed them.

Percival, sensing that something was wrong, immediately ordered a helicopter to Havenwood.

On the helicopter, they turned off their phones, so they were clueless about what was happening in Havenwood.

Luckily, they were close to Havenwood and reached there within half an hour.

As soon as they landed, Cecilia called, telling Percival that Isolde had been kidnapped.

At the same time, their subordinates reported that the students of Class Eighteen had been kidnapped too. The kidnappers were live-streaming and demanding Vivienne to make a choice.

By the time they rushed to Havenwood, Vivienne had already appeared on the live stream.

They were beside themselves with worry.

"We're almost there! Just a few hundred meters!" Thomas said, accelerating the car.

Screech.

The car came to a sudden stop, followed by two more vehicles fully equipped with armed men.

Once they got out of the car, they stood in front of Percival, waiting for his command.

Percival closed his laptop and coldly gave out orders. "Thomas, you take some men and rescue Isolde. Leopold and the rest will come with me to save the students."

Percival looked around, assessing the terrain. They outnumbered their opponents, but in order not to alert them, they parked the cars three hundred meters away from the factory.

Percival raised his hand, signaling for an attack. "Move out!"

Two dozen men, like arrows released from their bows, sprung into action.

...

Meanwhile, Matthew pulled out a pair of scissors and handed them to Vivienne.

He was a bit unusual. He always carried sharp and dangerous tools like hammers and scissors.

Vivienne took only a glance at the bomb's wiring and quickly cut one of the wires.

Time stopped.

The viewers in the live stream and the students of Class Eighteen were stunned.

Even Felix was flabbergasted.

How did she disarm the bomb so quickly?

Before he could react, Vivienne immediately untied the bomb from the student and pushed him towards Matthew. "Get him out of here!"

Without wasting time, Matthew quickly led the student out of the factory.

Vivienne, without any hesitation, began disarming the second student's bomb.

But Felix had finally snapped back to reality and smirked. "If I let you disarm all the bombs, wouldn't that mean I've lost?"

With that, he lunged at Vivienne.

Vivienne was entirely focused on the bomb and didn't dodge when she saw Felix attacking her.

Time was of the essence. With less than 3 minutes left, she had to disarm all the students' bombs as soon as possible.

So when Felix kicked her, she took it head-on.

Matthew had just settled the student when he walked in and saw this. His face turned pale, and he quickly attacked Felix.

With Matthew's help, Vivienne had time to continue disarming the bombs.

But Felix's target wasn't Matthew. He picked up his gun and fired at Matthew.

No matter how skilled Matthew was, he couldn't dodge a bullet.
