HIS REGRET (Ex-Husband wants Me Back) novel Chapter 922

"Mr. Jasper!"

A man appeared, breathing heavily. His uniform was covered in dust, while blood streamed from his left temple. "They've broken through the main staircase!" he reported hurriedly. "Our men are being forced back."

Jasper showed no sign of surprise. "How many?"

"We can't say for sure yet. But... they're moving too fast."

Another explosion rang out.

BOOM!

The entire building shook. The lights above their heads went out for several seconds before flickering back on, dim and weak. The man instinctively turned toward the source of the explosion.

"They're using explosives."

Jasper's expression immediately sharpened. "No."

The man frowned.

"They're deliberately opening a route," Jasper said.

Jasper knew the Obsidian Circle's fighting style. They never wasted bullets or explosives without a purpose. If there was an explosion, it meant they were forcing their opponents to move toward a location they had already chosen.

And that meant they were getting closer.

"Hold your position at the front," Jasper ordered curtly.

"But, sir—"

"That's an order."

The man bit his lower lip before finally nodding and running back toward the gunfight.

Jasper let out a slow breath. "Let's keep moving."

They continued down the corridor, which was now littered with shards of glass from the small windows along the side of the building. With every step, Lydia struggled to ignore the pain that was becoming increasingly difficult to control. Cold sweat soaked the back of her neck. Her vision began to blur from time to time.

The doctor glanced at her face several times, his expression filled with concern. "Mrs. Lydia."

Lydia slowly opened her eyes.

"If you can't keep walking, tell me."

Lydia shook her head. "Not yet." Her voice was barely above a whisper. "I... can still do it."

But only a few steps later, her body faltered again. This time, her knees truly gave out.
