Chapter: 580
Ariana could barely hear his low voice through the thick door, but she ignored his pleas anyway.
“Have you stepped back? I’m going to smash it!” Focused solely on opening the door, she positioned
the fire extinguisher over her head and aimed for the metal lock.
The wet towel that she had been using to breathe fell off her face and onto the ground. She was so
frantic in her efforts to break the lock that she didn’t notice until her lungs started burning. Despite her
pain and coughing, she persisted in smashing the lock until her arms began to shake.
She screamed her frustration as the lock bent out of form but still hung securely on the door.
Gritting her teeth, Ariana smashed it with all her strength, using every last bit of her energy.

The whistle of the fire engine finally came from downstairs. Ariana dared not slow down. Like a
deranged robot, she repeated the action of smashing the lock.
“Leave quickly, Ariana. The firefighters are here now. The firemen will save me. It’s too dangerous
here. Listen to me. You need to leave!” Theodore’s anxious voice rang out from inside.
Regardless of the concern in his words, Ariana didn’t stop and was drenched in sweat. “It will be
broken open soon. Hold on.”
The fire had spread and was nearing her. She could feel the heat on her back but ignored it in her
efforts to open the door. As the flames flickered over the backs of her ankles, she rapidly swiveled and
put them out with a spray from the fire extinguisher. She didn’t have time to take a breath because as
soon as she got the flames under control, she got back to work on the lock.
With a crack, the metal lock finally fell from the door.
Ariana yelped in relief when the lock thudded on the floor. She kicked the door open and rushed into
the room, wrapping her shaking arms around Theodore.
“Are you okay?” Ariana nervously checked on Theodore, looking at him while clutching onto him.
“I’m fine.” Theodore hugged her tightly.
They looked at each other, and there were too many emotions in their eyes at this moment.
Ariana suddenly felt that the answer was not that important as long as he was with her.
Despite the fire department’s presence downstairs, the voracious flames raced through the building,
leaving no room for Ariana and Theodore to hesitate.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe private room boasted a solitary, sealed French window. Shattering it from the outside would
unleash a violent rush of air that would instantly fuel the inferno to greater heights.
“Our prospects for rescue dwindle if we remain here. This room, nestled in the corridor’s corner,
presents a constricted entrance that obstructs the firemen’s access,” Theodore calmly analyzed.
“Let us abandon this room and make our way towards the escape passage.” Ariana furrowed her brow,
swiftly retrieving a damp towel from her pocket to cover Theodore’s mouth and nose. She then pushed
him out of the room. ©
The flames in the corridor raged fiercer than ever, devouring each room in their path.
Theodore seized the fire extinguisher, battling the encroaching flames to create a safe space for them.
