Chapter 949 The Culprit (2/2)
Dylan and Beryl exclaimed at the same time. Their little bodies were struck with panic. They didn't have the courage to save Rita from Nora's grip.
”How does it feel to be suffocated?”
Nora's sharp cheekbones lifted as she smiled like a maniac. Her eyes were bloodthirsty. The madness in her expression indicated that she was losing her mind and that the thirst for revenge had finally taken over her sanity. The strength in her hands had multiplied. Rita's face had already turned pale, and her vision was already bleak. She was really dying.
Bang!
The decrepit iron door was kicked open from outside. Nora got distracted by the loud sound and let go of Rita's neck. She then calmly looked at the man who was heading toward her angrily.

Darren's bodyguards couldn't see her. She took out a lighter from her pocket and threw it at the oil drum. Oil was already oozing out of it.
The fire grew wildly in no time. It blocked the entrance to the basement in seconds. A thick cloud of black smoke rose in the sky, and with it, the cries of the bodyguards.
The fire glowed in Nora's eyes. She smiled wantonly. Her bloodthirsty lips parted as she cried out loud. ”Go to hell! Only when you die can I have my happiness!”
Assured that her little stunt would kill them all, Nora turned around and left.
Both Rita and Darren would die, as would Rita's bastard. From now on, the Xu Group belonged to no one but her. David, too, was finally hers. Everything that had been scattered would come back together piece by piece, right from this day.
In the decrepit basement, the sound of billowing smoke and flames reached Rita's and Darren's ears. Darren ran to the basement door and kicked it open, only to be met by heat waves and flames. He had no choice but to close the door again.
He had never been this panicked before. He stood flabbergasted and scared, not knowing what to do. It was impossible to tell whether the sweat on his forehead was due to the heat or the nervousness.
Beryl and Dylan were both frightened. They held onto each other, crying out loud.
