Chapter 1145 Explosion

Suddenly, a deafening roar echoed from nearby!

Boom!

The entire world seemed to tremble as if a powerful earthquake had struck.

“Ahh!”

Lara lost her balance and instinctively reached out to grab Emmanuel, but then she

realized he was her enemy!

Emmanuel saw that she was about to fall and prepared to catch her.

However, when he noticed that she was retracting her hand, he stopped himself.

Thud!

In the end, Lara fell heavily to the ground. Due to her plump buttocks, her body even

bounced slightly.

“Hey, are you okay?” Emmanuel asked with genuine concern.

“D*mn it, why didn’t you hold me just now?”

Lara loudly blamed Emmanuel. If she had known it would hurt so much, she would have

held onto him.

Emmanuel innocently shrugged. “You could have held onto me just now. Since you didn’t

want to, why should I have held you?”

There is a saying: you can’t save someone who wants to die.

He didn’t want to help her and then be accused of being presumptuous!

He would rather do nothing and let her scold him if she wanted.

“Hmph, how ungentlemanly! Sc*mbag!”

Lara gritted her teeth and cursed.

Emmanuel paid no attention to her anymore. He just wanted to quickly figure out what

had happened during the earthquake.

The explosion seemed to have originated from the R&D center building a few hundred

meters away from the Terence Group building.

Not long after, a group of security guards rushed out of the building!

Sheldon and Ryder were among them.

“What happened?”

Emmanuel quickly stopped them. Judging from their hurried appearance, they must have

received some news.

“I heard that there was an explosion in the R&D center. We need to go there quickly to

assess the situation and provide on-site rescue!”

Just as Sheldon finished speaking, Emmanuel saw Mackenzie and Lexi hurriedly coming

out, followed by a large group of people.

Even Mackenzie herself came out to take a look. It seemed that something significant had

occurred.

Emmanuel quickly followed.

Soon, the group of people arrived at the R&D center, only to see thick black smoke

billowing from the building.

The head of security at the R&D center rushed over in a panic and reported to Mackenzie,

“Ms. Quillen, something terrible has happened! The development of our new product

failed, and there was a major explosion in the laboratory just now!”

“Are there any casualties?” Mackenzie asked with a worried expression.

If there were casualties, not only would the experiment be halted, but Terence Group

would definitely face serious consequences!

I knew we shouldn’t have commercialized Heart of the Sun!

Dad has warned me countless times before that there would be significant risks in doing

so. I shouldn’t have succumbed to the pressure from our family.

“When the explosion occurred, there was no one in the R&D lab. Only Ms. Evan, the

project leader, rushed over to assess the situation and was seriously injured in the second

explosion.”

“Besides that, some of the nearby research personnel suffered minor injuries, but it

shouldn’t be life-threatening,” the head of security nervously explained.

“Take me there.”

Mackenzie didn’t focus her attention on the research equipment but rather on the staff.

No matter the situation, human lives took precedence over inanimate objects!

Arriving outside the research lab, she indeed saw a young woman in work clothes lying in

a pool of blood.

Her entire body was charred. It was horrifying!

The two medical personnel who were trying to save her were sweating profusely and

looked extremely anxious.

Shortly after, Beatrix arrived and, upon witnessing the situation, immediately sneered at

Lara. “It’s all your fault! If it weren’t for you inciting everyone to force Mackenzie’s hand,

she wouldn’t have authorized the initiation of the research project, and today’s incident

wouldn’t have happened!”

Lara, however, deflected the blame, saying, “Oh, please! What does this have to do with

me? If Mackenzie wants to help the Quillen family increase its assets by 60 percent within

a year, she must develop new products and explore new markets, right?”

Mackenzie listened to their conversation.

Indeed, she was a decisive and swift individual. Precisely because she wanted to achieve

the 60 percent target with Emmanuel, she authorized the initiation of the new product

research project overnight.

But who would have thought an explosion would occur when this experiment had been

done before without any issues?
