My Dreamy Old Husband novel Chapter 1437

Although Bailey was just an outsider, he had been paying close attention to the bomb inside Sophia.

As he lowered the car window, he could see Carmen standing outside.

She called him happily. “Mr. Bailey!”

She really does look like a cheerful lark, but at the moment, her parents are on the brink of danger, and she may become an orphan soon.

Upon seeing her, he felt as though he was looking straight at his past.

I was once also a carefree and happy prince, but ever since the tragic turn that day, I’d lost everything, and I had fallen from a little prince to an abandoned child.

His heart was suddenly in pain.

I wonder if this lively little lark will be able to survive the harsh reality.

Bailey nodded his head, replying to Carmen’s greet.

As he stared at her, the boy of few words suddenly uttered, “You must be strong.”

This is a wish from me as someone who has experienced all of this before.

Carmen nodded and replied, “I will. I’m now a third grader in elementary school!”

In the new year, she would be six years old, so she was working hard to be a strong six-year-old girl!

At the same time, Bailey’s 16th birthday was also coming soon.

Time flies really fast. But other than her parents, she still has her grandparents and uncles to love her. With her around, this family will never be separated, and she won’t be forced to become an adult at a young age like I was.

After their short conversation, the car drove away. In the car, Bailey kept his eyes closed as he rested his mind. In the meantime, Quinton remained silent while he focused on driving the car, but actually, he kept on glancing at Bailey in the back seat from time to time.

From his eyes just now, Quinton could see the pity and sympathy he had for Carmen.

He is probably thinking about his past. Everyone has their own stories… Everyone is in pain, and every pain is tailored for a specific person, which makes them the only one that understands it. Just as Cooper is trying all he can to find a way, Bailey would also actively ask him about the situation from time to time. Maybe he is trying to help, even though I don’t know the reason. I think that he probably doesn’t want the lively and adorale lark to end its chirp just yet. Or maybe, he doesn’t want Carmen to go down the path he did.

Just as everyone was at loss, Justin suddenly came back from a meeting abroad and gathered everybody. “I may have a plan that we can try.” His security company was on the rise recently as he had been developing his career abroad. Only then did he return to inform Cooper and Linus. “When I first found out the bomb inside Phantom Wolf’s body back then, I kept on studying it.”

Previously, when Quinton tried to capture Sophia and was shot in the crotch by Stanley, he exposed the existence of the bomb, and Justin was fearful of him ever since, so he started researching the matter.

Back then, Justin was a soldier, but in order to avenge his beloved wife, he began learning how to defuse bombs himself, turning him into a bomb disposal technician. “I have previously worked out a way to damage the insides of a bomb temporarily by using the interference of electromagnetic waves so that we can use the opportunity to defuse it. In theory, it may work.”

However, it might not work in reality.

Justin explained, “Afterward, the bomb was shut down by Linus, so I wasn’t able to do my research on it. If you can make a fourth bomb, we can try.”

For a moment, Linus seemed to have had a realization.

It’s true when they say that it’s harder to clear our minds when we are nervous. I was the one who invented the bomb, and my initial intention of inventing such a bomb was to make it undefusable other than using the detonator, so all principles of bomb disposal were pushed aside by my assumptions.

That was why when studying how to defuse the bomb, he immediately denied all possibilities.

However, Justin’s idea gave him a new perspective.

Therefore, the two of them entered a workshop and began to study the idea nonstop everyday. After days of continuous hard work, they finally came out with a plan that was feasible in theory.

Nevertheless, the plan was only theoretically feasible. When dismantling the bomb in real life, there might be various unforeseen factors, and if they weren’t careful… the consequences would be devastating.
