His Versatile Gorgeous Wife (PDF) novel Chapter 147

Chapter 147
“Arielle, come back here! Are you out of your mind?” Vinson banged the door forcefully. “Leave now! Don’t worry. I’ll meet you as soon as I retrieve what I want. I promise you that I won’t die in here.”
With that, she ignored Vinson’s screams and sprinted towards the top floor.
The entire building was filled with thick smoke from the fire.
It wasn’t for long before the fire-rescue department and the police arrived.
Vinson was found by a group of firefighters.
“Sir, I need you to leave with us immediately. We have to evacuate as there may be another
explosion!”
He rejected them and said, “No! My friend is still up there!”
A firefighter looked at him, wide-eyed. “What? You mean there’s someone up there?”
At the same time, another firefighter appeared. “Captain, I have bad news! According to some witnesses, there’s a bunch of kids stuck at the top floor!”
“What?” The captain adjusted his helmet and said to Vinson. “Sir, I need you to leave with them right now! I will bring your friend back to you.
“No, I’m coming with you. Get someone to pry open the door!” “Sir, I can’t let you take the risk. It’s too dangerous. Hey, someone get him out of here!
Then, a few fire fighters dragged him towards the exit.
At this moment, there was a fourth explosion.
The commotion of the explosion shook the entire building.
“Captain, the building might crumble any time and we don’t know if there would be another explosion. Should we retreat?”
The captain hesitated when he heard those words.
It was a split decision to head up or head out.
In the meantime, the female employees thought that their children were evacuated by the caretaker when the explosion happened.
To their dismay, the ‘specialized staff only cared for herself and had left the children behind. They were furious and shocked when they heard the news. With that, they turned and ran towards the building.
However, they were stopped by the firefighters before they could even reach the entrance.
“The building’s going to collapse any moment. You can’t go up there!”
“Let us in, please! Our children are still inside the building! Please, I beg you!”
“Please save our children! I can’t lose her.” She sobbed.
“Get out of my way! I need to get in there!”
The scene was a mess and filled with cries of helplessness and car sirens.
At the moment, Arielle was out of breath when she reached the top floor of the building.
The air was coated with thick smoke and the oxygen levels were running dangerously low.
She tore a piece of cloth from her top and drenched it with water. Then, she lowered her body as she approached the office.
Suddenly, she stopped walking when she heard a loud cry.
Who’s crying? Perhaps someone was still on the top floor? I thought everyone has left the building.
She thought it was her imagination. However, she realized it was real and more than one person was crying.
What’s going on here?
She followed the direction of the sound and arrived at the kids playroom.
She opened the door and found a bunch of children in the room while the ‘specialized staff’ was nowhere to be seen.
“Damn it!” She gritted her teeth.
I always knew the fellow didn’t have the heart to take care of children, but how could she abandoned them when the building exploded. What a monster! Forget it, now’s not that time to point fingers.
She walked up to them and said, “Hey kid, could you lead the other kids to safety? Just take the stairs and get to the bottom. There’s a fire going on so you can’t stay here anymore.”
“Mommy, I want my mommy..” the child whimpered.
