My Dreamy Old Husband
Chapter 400

Since the classroom door was welded up tightly and could no longer be opened, she couldn't getout at all. Thus, she decided not to escape anymore. Instead, she just leaned against the wall of thisold, blood-splattered and abandoned classroom, panting heavily.

She stared at the camera, knowing that person was watching her closely now. Lowering her head,she uttered a voice as cold as ice, “Hahaha, your plan failed. I bet you're very disappointed now,aren't you? You f*cking psychopath!”

However, Phantom Wolf's leader sounded very relaxed when his voice was heard from theloudspeaker. “I have two plans here. The first one is to kill him, and the second one is to take youaway. At the very least, one of them worked now. With that, my plan still hasn't failed.”

Sophia supported herself against the wall. Then, she raised her head and held her chin up high withthe back of her head leaning against the shabby wall, panting heavily before spitting out a mouthfulof bloody saliva. “l won't let you have your way easily even if I die! Since I owe you my life, I'l give itback to you now!"

She wanted to get up, but she felt weak and powerless, having used up all her energy while fightingwith Kayla in a brutal brawl just now.

With her being injured and having lost so much blood, she didn't even have the energy to move herfingers, let alone the excruciating pain she felt while moving a muscle.

Once again, the voice of Phantom Wolf's leader was heard.

“This place is called Golden Drive Elementary School. You know this place? Many years ago, therewas a great fire here and a dozen young students were burned to death in the fire.

Ever since then, this place has become haunted. No one dares to take over the building anymore. Soeventually, it was abandoned and forgotten.”

Sophia struggled to get on her feet by holding onto the wall. Walking to the side of the tightlywelded up window, she noticed there seemed to be someone guarding downstairs as well asoutside the classroom. With her current condition, she was certain she couldn't escape here. Even ifshe died, she didn't want to fall into the hands of Phantom Wolf's leader.

It was too bad that she couldn't be in the wedding which Michael promised to give her anymore...Also, she couldn't keep her promise of keeping Nathan company and watching him grow up happilyeither.

Sophia wiped the tears off her cheeks. While struggling to look for a way out, she retorted, “I'm noteven afraid of you, so do you think I'll be afraid of ghosts?”

The leader of Phantom Wolf let out a sinister chuckle, which echoed through the dark and creepyplace. It reminded Sophia of a quote in a novel that went along the lines of “Human nature issomething more terrifying than ghosts’.

“Let me tell you a secret. I told him that you were locked up in Mount View Elementary School. Thatschool isn't very far away from here.

You can see it from the window. He's in the school now. Three seconds later, I'll blow up the entireMount View Elementary School.”

With a buzz in her ear, Sophia's mind went blank immediately. She raised her head stiffly andthrough the dusty mottled window, she saw there was indeed a dark building not far away fromhere.

As for Phantom Wolf's leader, he began his countdown.

“Three. Two. One.”

Boom! A loud explosion was heard and the nearby Mount View Elementary School was turned intopiles of ashes. After a few seconds, the huge impact from the explosion reached here and Sophiawas knocked down onto the ground immediately.

Upon falling on the ground, her mind stopped working and she couldn't think for a moment. Herentire brain seemed to have stopped operating for several seconds along with her heart. Within thatfew seconds of time, she felt as if she was dead, but her mind was still aware.

In a half-conscious state, she vaguely saw a man march bravely into the treacherous hellscape inorder to save her. Within a split second, his body was blown up into pieces by the huge impact ofthe explosion. Then, he turned into ashes, which vanished gradually into the void...

He's dead. He's dead... Sophia fell on the ground with her palm brushing against the wall, leavingbehind trails of bloody fingerprints. Feeling her eyelids becoming heavy, they closed down over hereyes, shutting her view of the whole world outside.

She was still alive, but she wished she were dead. “We shall meet again soon...”

Some time later, she had regained consciousness. The metallic tang of blood, her weakened legs,numbed shoulders that resulted from the immense pain and the sight of a world veiled in blurrinesswere the first things that assaulted her senses when she came to.

She opened her eyes weakly and noticed that her shoulders were being grabbed by two people,one on each side. Then, they carried her and stood on an abandoned field.

A black car halted in front of her as a man got out of the car and strode toward her slowly.

Raising her head, she felt her brain spinning like crazy, the world in her eyes swaying from left toright with a buzzing noise in her ears, as though her head was filled with water. She could barely seethe man’s face. No, he didn't have a face; he wore a mask instead. She knew who he was.

Phantom Wolf's leader took two steps forward, held out his hand and tried to take Sophia from hishenchmen.

Suddenly, Sophia heard a groan coming from her left side and the grip on her left shoulderloosened as warm liquid splattered on her face. She turned her head to the left side and saw theman, who grabbed her just now, falling down onto the ground quietly, for he was actually shot inthe head. There were snipers around!

Phantom Wolf's leader took two steps forward and lunged at Sophia. Even though both him and theguy on the right hand side were quick enough in their reaction, but unfortunately for the latter, assoon as he picked up his gun, a groan was heard and a bullet was embedded in between hiseyebrows. The man was shot in the head as well, right in between his eyebrows!

Only less than three seconds had elapsed between the first person and the second person beingkilled!

The leader of Phantom Wolf was astounded. The sniper is an expert!

The sniper managed to aim and fire accurately at the two consecutive targets within three seconds,ignoring wind resistance and velocity. It was really extraordinary and one in a million for a sniper tohave such an incredible shooting skill!

Phantom Wolf's leader was quick in his reaction too, for he had managed to replace the sniperslocation from the direction the bullet travelled. So, he quickly grasped Sophia and used her to shieldhimself from that direction.

Three seconds had passed, but the sniper had yet to strike.

At the same time, footsteps were heard everywhere from the surrounding. There were a few dozenpeople, judging from the footsteps. Several cars had even blocked the entrance to the place.

A car stopped in front of Phantom Wolf's leader and Sophia. The car door was opened and a man ina black trench coat got out from the car, standing in front of Phantom Wolf's leader and Sophia.Sophia's eyes widened with joyful surprise when she saw the man, for the sight that met her eyeswas none other than Michael's attractive and serious-looking face.

A furious and murderous look flickered in his eyes. As he stared at the man whom he loathed somuch, he could feel the hatred within him being amplified greatly.

He remembered those awful nights where he was stirred from his sleep for having nightmares overand over again. Those new tombstones in the Memorial Garden and that hellish battlefield coveredin streams of blood haunted his dreams.

Even after a total of six years had passed, those nightmares still plagued him like maggots adheringto rotting corpses, all because of the man in front of him!

Tightening his grip on Sophia, the leader of Phantom Wolf glanced around at his surroundings andthe sniper that hid in the dark. It seemed like it would be impossible for him to escape easily now.However, he didn't seem to be afraid or worried at all, because he still had a hostage in his hands.Indeed, with Sophia in his hands, Michael dared not come closer toward him. He stood a few metersaway from Phantom Wolf's leader. Both of them looked at each other for a long time.

“It's impossible for you to escape today. Stop your useless resistance and surrender, Phantom Wolf."The leader of Phantom Wolf snorted coldly. Carrying Sophia with one of his hands, he slowly pulledhis shirt upward with his other hand, revealing a blue metal device around his waist. It seemed toadhere closely onto his skin, but it did seem to be implanted in his body at the same time.

In his usual relaxed tone, Phantom Wolf's leader said, “You see this? I can tell you that this is abomb. It is powerful enough to blow up everything within a ten miles perimeter. The bomb hasbeen implanted into my body and it is directly connected to my brain.

Once I die, the bomb will blow up on its own automatically. I believe you know how destructive itcan be, right? Maybe you are thinking about beating the living sh*t out of me while taking theopportunity to defuse the bomb.

Well, you're wrong again. The detonator is in my mouth. If I bite and crush the detonator in mymouth, the bomb will still blow up anyway.”

The expression on Michael's face changed abruptly, for he never expected Phantom Wolf's leaderwould be so demented as to implant such a diabolical stuff into his own body!
