After Nova finished speaking, she quietly watched Lucas, awaiting his decision.
Lucas raised his head, gazing solemnly at Chloe and Jane, who were suspended mid-air.
Chloe shouted from above, "Lucas! What are you still hesitating for? Save Mrs. Bennett quickly!"
"Mrs. Bennett is elderly, her body won't hold out much longer. You must save her first!"
Although Chloe feared death, she feared even more that Lucas would suffer lifelong pain because of this.
She wished Lucas could be free from this burden, not tormented by regret.
Lucas and Chloe exchanged glances. From her eyes, he saw her readiness to sacrifice herself.
He understood clearly that Chloe had already prepared herself for death.
Lucas's face revealed deep anguish. "Chloe!"
Nova's voice rang out again, full of icy sarcasm。
