Waiting was always fretful.
Two hours passed, but there was still no good news from the base. Sean decided at once to send Molly away.
"Sean, let's wait for another while, okay?" Molly was extremely resistant to leaving Sean from the heart.
But Sean refused flatly. "No. It's very dangerous to wait for another moment."
Sean was resolute, turning down Molly's request.
Besides, he said to Logan and Selon, "Nearly all the injured have been evacuated, and you can leave with Molly."
At his words, Logan and Selon looked at each other, both of whom did not agree immediately.

Logan smiled. "No problem."
But Selon made no reply.
Noticing Selon, Sean frowned. "Do you have any concerns?"
"I don't plan to leave now," Selon answered. "Alkaid hasn't been found yet, and I want to wait for her here."
Hearing his words, others present got surprised.
Sean took a second glance at him and said frankly, "It’s uncertain whether Alkaid is alive. Once the explosion
occurs, you can’t leave."
Alkaid fell into the sea and might have drifted away from the island due to the waves.
"Yes, Mr. Shepard, please think twice." Logan attempted to talk Selon into leaving.
Selon was clear about what kind of danger he would face if he stayed here. But as bethought that Alkaid
encountered the accident when protecting him, he was unwilling to leave before ensuring her safety.
Selon let out a low and bitter smile. "If she dies, I’ll accompany her."
Others were shocked by his words and meanwhile felt his deep love for Alkaid.
Logan was moved. 'If Lesley met with such an accident, I would do the same as Selon.’
Although others knew Selon liked Alkaid, they didn't anticipate that he loved her dearly.
Molly moved her lips, trying to say something. But in the end, she didn't utter anything.
She knew that since Selon made a decision, no one could change his mind.
Sean didn't persuade Selon to leave. He turned to look at Logan. "Logan, you and Molly leave together."
"What about you?" Logan asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I'll stay and deal with the remaining things..." At this second, Sean's phone rang. Andrew was calling him, and he
answered his call right away.
"Master, I've found the main switch!" Andrew's excited voice came from the other end, and the people present
heard it clearly.
Molly became happy. 'Andrew has finally located the switch.
'I don’t have to leave Sean.'
However, Andrew's following words disappointed all the people.
"But the wires on the bomb are complex. I need a bomb disposal expert to defuse it." Looking at the wires of
various colors, Andrew frowned. 'There are so many wires. I don’t know which one I should cut.
'If I cut the wrong wire, it doesn't matter that I will die. But others will plunge into great danger.'
Sean furrowed his eyebrows and said grimly, "Send me a photo of the bomb."
After hanging up, Sean looked up and saw Molly's worried eyes.
He smiled and comforted her. "As we have found the main switch, we will be able to defuse the bomb. Don't worry.”
Though Sean spoke easily, Molly was rather anxious.
