Chapter 8 298 Voucher Chapter 8 "Arabella, why do you always have to stand in my way?" Judith's tone had lost its earlier fear, replaced by hatred. "Five years ago, you survived by sheer luck. I wonder if you'll be so fortunate this time?" The ticking of the countdown sounded unbearably sharp in the silent basement. In an instant, Arabella understood everything, and it felt as if the blood in her veins had frozen. "You're insane! You're actually working with the killer? Those people are innocent!" "They're innocent, but am I not?" Judith sneered.
"I worked so hard, but in their eyes, it's always you! Whether it's Anthony or anyone else! Why?" Listening to Judith's accusations, Arabella felt a chill seep through her entire body. Anthony's shouts were close by. Just as she was about to speak, Judith covered her mouth. "If you make a sound now, I'll detonate the bomb immediately. We'll all die together!" Arabella's eyes widened, the bomb in her hand burning with a terrifying heat. "By the way, there are others in the next room-the innocent people you spoke of.

The choice is yours, Arabella." 1.00% 10:57 Chapter 8 1288 Wouchers "Will it be just you who dies, or..." Judith's sinister words sent a chill down Arabella's spine, silencing the truth she was about to reveal. A wave of helplessness crashed over her. The light so close, Anthony's anxious calls-all of it threatened to crush her. After a long moment, she slowly closed her eyes. Satisfied with her reaction, Judith released her hand, then hurriedly ran toward the exit, throwing herself into Anthony's arms. "Bella is working with the kidnappers! She's involved in all these cases!
She even tried to kill me..." Anthony's body stiffened, instinctively refuting, "Impossible!" "Tick-tick-" The countdown of the bomb was especially clear in the silent basement. Anthony's expression changed. He strode toward her, but was stopped by a teammate. "Since she's working with the kidnappers, she must know how to defuse the bomb. Captain Whitehead-Captain Whitehead, don't let her fool you!" The wariness and alienation in their eyes were like daggers, piercing through Arabella's last shred of hope.
Those who once shared life and death with her now treated her as if she were a venomous snake. Judith sobbed uncontrollably: "Anton, let's go. Bella is no longer the 29.29% 10:57 D Chapter B 280 (ouchers person she used to be..." A teammate tugged at Anthony's arm, shouting, "Come on, let's go!" "There are injured civilians outside who need to be evacuated. We have to leave now!" In the end. Anthony gave her a long, deep look. Then he turned away, shielding Judith, and quickly led his teammates out. His resolute figure disappeared from her sight just like that.
In the basement, only Arabella remained, along with the increasingly urgent ticking in her hand. A faint, bitter smile appeared on her face. She had been abandoned once again. Perhaps it was for the best. With feelings and an identity like this... everything should come to an end. Arabella lowered her head, looking at the familiar bomb in her hand. It was exactly the same as the one from five years ago, with a structure she had come to know by heart. She worked quickly and precisely on the wiring, and the countdown suddenly sped up. But there was not a trace of panic on her face.
As the countdown entered its final seconds, Arabella summoned all her strength and climbed into the ventilation duct. Chapter 8 288 Vouchers "Goodbye, Anthony." "Goodbye, past." "Boom!!!" Just as Anthony and the others had evacuated all the civilians, a deafening explosion erupted. A massive fireball filled their vision, the entire basement shook violently, and even the nearby sea was stirred into waves. In an instant, everything was consumed by the raging fire-including Arabella.
