Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 196

As soon as Lola was untied, she cried to them in a hoarse voice, "Are you two crazy? Didn't you see me shaking my head? He has explosives all over him!" She pointed to the guy who opened the door for them just now.

Harry and Zoe smiled and that made Lola even more confused and helpless.

They were so stupidly fearless! They were crazy!

Thomas Herren hurried to the site of the crime as well. Lola spotted him and yelled to stop him from coming any further, "You should all go away. There is a bomb here!"

Thomas Herren was immediately stopped in his tracks. He looked up and saw the fearless Harry and a smiling Zoe. He respected them so much for the courage that they were showing.

Everyone backed off upon Lola's warning.

Lucy hysterically laughed. "Jordan and Joseph should come here as well. After all, I am their auntie! It's kind of lonely to die alone. The more the merrier! Hahaha!"

"Lucy, the pocket watch is here. Let's go! There's no time to waste." The guy in the suit standing behind Lucy greedily stared at the watch in Harry's hands. His face was full of lust and adoration.

On hearing his words, Lucy scornfully laughed. "You are a fool. Even if I get the watch, I won't be able take possession of the crude oil. I don't think you can evade the law on your own! Good luck with that!"

Crude oil? What did she mean by that? Lola cast a glance at Lucy. She was absolutely confused. Lucy wicked smiled back at her.

"Silly girl, don't you know the secret of the old pocket watch? President Herren and this man approached you aggressively because of it. Don't you know about that? You foolish girl." Lucy gave her niece a meaningful look. She was indeed a beauty!

The past flooded towards her and made her heart hurt.

"Silly girl. This watch is the biggest fortune of the Li family! Your grandmother passed it on to you as her only granddaughter! I am so jealous of you! I really don't think you deserve it." She lit up another cigarette in an enchanting manner and then blew a smoke ring into the thin air.

Harry pulled Lola over so that she could stay further away from Lucy.

Lucy saw this and dismissively laughed at them. She did not care. She had everything she wanted.

"Forget about it. You just wanted to be close to her for the sake of the watch. What confuses me is why are you even pretending that you are in love with her?"

Harry radiated a cold look and snapped back, "Mind your own business!"

Lola looked at him and noticed that the blood was slowly dripping out of his wound. The situation had just become worse as they were now in a deadlock.

"Lucy, we will give you the watch. Just let them go!" Landon's familiar voice was heard from downstairs.

Lucy glared at Landon and emitted a loud wicked laugh. Thanks to this old man, she married Hilton! That loser of a man!

"Well, I have changed my mind. I want them all to die here with me! Haha!" The wild laugh of Lucy terrified literally everyone.

Landon became so furious that he almost fainted! He clenched his chest so hard.

On learning that the enemy had explosives upstairs, Harold advised the others to leave the site. He only asked the bomb squad to stand by so that the potential casualties could be reduced to a minimum.

"Are you sure you want the others to go to hell with you?" Zoe had kept his silence all this time but now he opened his mouth as he noticed something different about the man with the bomb wrapped on him.

His eyes looked lifeless and he was behaving like a confused child.

"Zoe, you go away with Harry. Just hand me the watch! You don't have to play the role of the hero. Nothing will change." Lola grabbed the watch from Harry's hand and walked straight to the floor-to-ceiling window. She was standing right on the very edge.

"Lola, you come here right now!" Harry's face froze as he was utterly shocked. How dare she disobey him like this! He couldn't put her in so much danger!

Lola peered over at the angry Harry. She wanted to remember this moment and his face in her mind.

Lucy witnessed all these and just smirked. She forcefully grabbed Lola by the arms. "Take it easy, my dear niece! You don't want to die alone, right?"

Harry immediately took action and pulled her back to himself. At that critical moment, the man who opened the door for them lifted up his clothes. He had a lighter in hand and his chest was taped with explosives.

Harry now had the chance to take a close look at the bomb. It was short-fused and could be easily lit to explode within just three seconds!
