Inside the warehouse, sparks flew wildly. A member of the Red Jackals trembled in the corner, only about three feet away from a horizontal beam that blocked his escape.
In front of him, Olivia, holding a steel pipe, was desperately propping up the beam that was about to collapse.
“Are you dumb? Smoking where the gunpowder is stored?” Olivia was drenched in sweat from the intense heat.
She had just come to check on the damaged gunpowder with this foolish thug.
Before she could even lament her losses, the thug carelessly lit a cigarette and accidentally flicked the butt into a crate full of gunpowder.
By the time Olivia noticed, it was too late. The rapidly spreading fire and the thunderous explosions had trapped them in this tight corner.
If it weren’t for the emergency, Olivia would have loved to twist his head off to see.
The young thug, scolded and overwhelmed, didn’t dare talk back. He knew well that if it weren’t for Qlivia pulling him into the corner just before the explosion, the broken beam would have likely killed him!
Olivia took a deep breath, watching the flames getting closer. Soon, even this safe spot would be untenable.
Her eyes caught a small skylight above. She immediately signaled the thug to escape through the skylight.
The thug hesitated, but after a harsh scolding from Olivia, he scrambled through the skylight, sobbing and stumbling.
As he tried to reach down to help Olivia up…
“Boom!”
The remaining gunpowder ignited due to the high temperature. The intense explosion sent shockwaves that blasted the thug out of the skylight.
“Wow!”
After being ejected, the thug landed hard on the ground.
A tall figure appeared behind him.
“Where’s Olivia?”
A deep, raspy voice sounded.
Instinctively, the thug pointed towards the now flame–engulfed skylight and stammered, “Olivia’s in there… I… I couldn’t hold onto her…”
A flicker of ferocity flashed in Alexander’s eyes.

But…”

Alexander grabbed the bucket of water from Louis, drenched himself thoroughly, and, to everyone’s astonishment, leaped up and dove into the flaming skylight.
“Ah! Has he
gone mad?”
Shouts of alarm rose and fell. But they faded away, drowned out by the roaring flames, from Alexander’s hearing.
The scorching fire consumed everything inside the warehouse. When Alexander jumped down from the skylight, the warehouse was a sea of fire, littered with debris from the explosion.
In a daze, Alexander spotted a familiar badge on the ground–the custom badge Zayn had made for Olivia on the first day of shooting ‘Legacy of the Dynasty.’
Since the start, Olivia had worn this badge on her sleeve.
In just a moment, Alexander’s mind buzzed. His heart felt as if it had been crushed. Olivia? Where are you? Don’t scare me!
Just as Alexander’s breath grew tense to the point of stopping.
“Alex? What are you doing running in here?” Olivia’s voice suddenly came from under a cabinet nearby.
Alexander turned his head and saw…
A dusty–faced Olivia, hiding in a metal barrel under the cabinet, her eyes wide and watery, looking up at him.
