Chapter 846:

Fiona replied, her expression tense, "Yes, our relationship has had its challenges, but I'm not a terrible person. Sometimes, I'm willing to help."

Edward, still skeptical, muttered, "You don't seem very trustworthy to me."

Gavin interjected, "Enough with the bickering. We need to locate Elyse. I'm going to inform the authorities about this situation." He quickly moved to take action.

At that moment, an anonymous call claimed a bomb had been planted at the music hall, set to detonate if the competition went ahead.

With a crowd gathering, including notable music industry personalities, the organizers delayed the event to ensure everyone's safety.

Meanwhile, Elyse had been freed from the warehouse. David had cut through the lock with a chainsaw and swiftly put Elyse in his car. As they drove, Elyse asked, "Why was there no signal at that warehouse?"

David responded nonchalantly, "I couldn't afford it. I'll get a signal service when I have the money." He suggested, "You can do your makeup in my car before we get there. Once I drop you off, head straight to the stage."

Elyse agreed and retrieved her makeup bag.

Upon entering the city center, she immediately called Irving to update him.

Irving, relieved, urged, "Hurry over here. We've encountered an issue at the venue. Don't delay."

After the call, Elyse inquired, "What if the police investigate the bomb threat and find it was false? Could you get arrested?"

David reassured her with a confident smile, "Don't worry about me, I can handle it."

Elyse, still skeptical, remarked, "I doubt it. You can't even afford a signal for that warehouse."

Elyse then asked, "If you're struggling with finances, how do you manage to maintain a car?"

David said, "A man might not need a signal, but he must have a car."

Elyse asked, "How does that make sense?"

David's smile disappeared when they hit a traffic jam caused by slippery roads.

Elyse, noticing the delay, became anxious, "Why is there a traffic jam now? I'm not going to be late, am I?"

David reassured her, "Don't worry, you won't miss the competition."

He sent a quick text message.

A minute later, an explosion rocked the back door of the music hall. The staff, initially doubtful about the anonymous threat, panicked.
