Chapter 689 Could She Speak Now?
Blood dripped onto the back of Lincoln’s hand, a shocking sight. His brows furrowed as his gaze settled upon Zayla.
“Zayla…” Content © NôvelDrama.Org.
His limbs felt numb, almost devoid of sensation, yet the sight of the blood on his hand was painfully real. His handsome face was filled with worry and anxiety.
Zayla lay on the ground, her eyes bright red, tears trickling from their corners… She shook her head, her lips moving… “Don’t…” Her voice! It was her voice!
Though hoarse and weak, the faint whispers reached his ears! Lincoln’s gaze shifted, and suddenly, a smile appeared on his face.
Gripping the lock tight, he turned the key with all his might! Electricity invaded his limbs. Bang! The lock fell! It was unlocked! Stephen watched this scene in shock!
Not just because Lincoln had opened the lock, but also because Zayla could actually speak! “Zayla!” Stephen shouted! Even Archie seemed somewhat surprised.
Archie marveled at Lincoln’s speed. Most people would have collapsed by now, but Lincoln succeeded in opening the lock.
At the same time, Archie was amazed that Zayla regained her ability to speak! Had the lingering effects of the Five Poisons vanished in that instant?
Suddenly, Archie burst into laughter! “She can talk now? Congratulations! “Look, don’t you owe me thanks? Without me, how could Zayla speak?” Archie took credit for himself.
Then, he turned his gaze to Stephen, who stood frozen in place. “As her brother, you must be quite anxious, aren’t you? “Now, your moment has arrived!
“Look how many layers of iron chains are wrapped around. How could he unlock them alone? “Why don’t you go help him?” Before Archie could finish speaking, Stephen quickly rushed up.
Even facing millions of volts, Stephen believed Lincoln wouldn’t give up. Even so, how could Stephen, as Zayla’s brother, lose to Lincoln? “What are you doing here? I can handle it alone,” Lincoln didn’t allow Stephen to touch the cage
With electricity coursing through it, although within the limits the human body could endure, the convulsions and numbness caused by each touch were unbearable. His hands were already burned and mangled, with flesh torn and blood smeared.
“Have you forgotten what I told you outside?” Stephen’s voice trailed off as he attempted to push Lincoln away, his hands coming into contact with the chains!
At the instant Stephen was struck by the electric current, he gritted his teeth and forcibly pulled apart the entwined chains. If Stephen didn’t help now, Lincoln’s hands might end up necrotic. “Stephen…” Zayla called out to him with great effort.
“Don’t…”
Stephen looked at her but didn’t stop moving. Lincoln showed no intention of stepping aside. “Stephen, as I’ve told you, she is mine.” Archie watched the countless layers of
tangled chains. Seeing Stephen and Lincoln unwind the chains layer by layer under electric shock, Archie was satisfied. Unraveling the chains layer by layer was much more challenging than picking a lock.
Archie sat calmly in his seat, as if watching a play, but he had already loaded bullets into the gun. Upon seeing his action, Zayla outed, immediately shouted, “You have to go. He’s going to shoot!”
However, neither of them flinched, and neither had any intention of leaving. At this moment, their goals were aligned! Just one more layer! Until the last chain fell!
