Chapter 1073 Escape From Death
The two of them shook violently!
A miniature bomb?
Erm...
However, after thinking about it carefully, they realized that it was not impossible.
Previously, they did not know Coby well enough, so they didn't know what was his weakness.
However, after fighting for such a long period of time, they gradually understood.
Because he was a thousand-year-old man, he was extremely conceited and arrogant.
He always thought he knew more than anyone else and was very smart.
Indeed, he was very talented and was very well-versed in ancient studies and ancient martial arts.
But in the aspects of modern science and technology, it was his weak point.
Previously, the tracker Jara installed in the box that held the Jade of Heaven was a very good example.
Now, based on the way Anderson did things, he could only be more ruthless than Jara.
Upon learning the plan, Jara and Emmeline felt slightly at ease.
However, when they thought of the question that Anderson asked just now, the two of them fell silent again.
In the end, Emmeline was the first to speak.
"We won't blame you. Life and death are bound to happen. Even if Coby is alive, he may not help us anyway. At the end of the day, we still need to find a way to solve this problem ourselves.
Furthermore, if he successfully gathers all twelve pieces of the Jade of Heaven and restarts the spaceship, it will cause a nuclear explosion. By then, we won't be the only ones who die. Instead, billions of people will be affected by this disaster. We can't let him do this."
When she finished her sentence, Jara also nodded his head.
"Emmeline is right. We will think of a way ourselves. Coby must die."
On the other hand, Anderson looked at them. It would be a lie if he said he wasn't shocked.
Raising his hand, he patted them on the shoulder.
"Don't worry. I have already asked Mr. Lane to study the antidote to this disease. Since we have the Way Tree, Emmeline's life is not in danger for the time being. As long as the antidote is developed, it is not difficult to cure the disease."
In response, both of them nodded.
Since they reached an agreement, they decided not to concern themselves with this topic anymore.
Anderson had already ordered his men to keep an eye on Coby. He would wait for the right time and location to detonate the bomb.
He had done an exquisite job with the bomb this time.
No one would have thought that the priceless Jade of Heaven would be cut open using high-tech cutting technique, and explosive chips were inserted in each of them.
As long as the time was right, and with one click of the button, the jades would explode immediately.
Inside the jades were micronuclear bombs. Although it wouldn't cause too much impact to the surroundings, it would definitely cause the immediate death of the person holding the jades.
This was also the reason why Anderson did not immediately press the button. Instead, he had someone track him down and look for the perfect timing.
After all, nuclear bombs were still too powerful.
He did not want to hurt the innocent. Therefore, he would not detonate the jades unless Coby was alone.
And he firmly believed that since it was not easy for Coby to obtain the Jade of Heaven, he would not pass it to someone else, and he would definitely carry it on him. Next, he just had to catch timing when he was alone.
After Anderson gave his orders, Jara and Emmeline realized that they had nothing else to do here, so they took the initiative to help out.
Then, Anderson returned to the ward.
At this time, Clarissa hadn't woken up yet.
Robert went to get some rest, and Sierra had been guarding her beside her bed.
Rubbing her red eyes when she saw Anderson enter the room, she forced a smile and uttered. "You're here. Stay with her. In that case, I'll be leaving first."
With a nod, Anderson replied sincerely, "Thank you, Mom."
Sierra waved her hand. Without saying anything, she turned around and left.
Then, Anderson sat down in front of the hospital bed.
At that moment, Clarissa, who was lying on the bed looked as pale as paper, and her belly was slightly bulging under the blanket. It was their child.
Raising his hand, he gently placed his palm on her belly.
Suddenly, Clarissa snorted.
Trembling all over, he quickly rose to his feet. He saw Clarissa opening her eyes slightly as she looked at him weakly.
"Clarissa, are you awake."
He was so happy that even his eyes were smiling. Holding her hand tightly, he asked with concern, "How do you feel? I'll call Mr. Lane right away."
Just as he was about to leave, Clarissa tightened her grip on him and pulled him.
"No, it's not necessary. Anderson..."
Anderson hurriedly stopped and turned his head to look at her nervously.
"What's wrong?"
Clarissa asked, "Where's Coby? What happen to him?"
Upon hearing her questions, Anderson was stunned.
He did not expect that the first thing Clarissa asked when she woke up was Coby.
Anderson didn't want to hide anything from her anymore, so he told Clarissa about his plans.
After listening to his words, Clarissa remained silent for a while and sighed.
"He is actually a poor man."
When his true love was alive, he didn't know how to cherish her. It was only when she passed away that he cling to that little bit of attachment and hope, refusing to let go.
Since then, he had been chasing after her footsteps, walking through time, and through all parts of the world. He tried so hard for a thousand years just to wait for the day she revived.
However, he might never know that the so-called Jade of Heaven was just a hoax.
It was impossible to revive someone. Instead, it would put many in danger.
Rather than saying that Coby was a villain, he was better described as a crazy fool who had lost his mind in love.
Anderson remained silent. With a frown, Clarissa touched her stomach.
Seeing that, Anderson immediately became nervous and asked with concern, "Clarissa, what's wrong? Do you feel uncomfortable?"
In response, Clarissa shook her head.
Suddenly, a relaxed smile appeared on her face as she turned to look at Anderson.
"I think I felt the baby's movement just now."
After hearing that, Anderson was surprised.
It was not the first time for him to be a father. Of course, he knew what a baby's movement was.
This meant that the child was very healthy, and the child was fine!
Anderson was also very happy, as he held Clarissa's hand tightly and uttered sincerely, "Clarissa, when you get better, I'll tell you everything that happened in the past few years. I won't hide anything from you anymore, okay?"
At that moment, Clarissa looked at him deeply.
In truth, when she found out the truth in the beginning, she actually hated Anderson.
However, she was reminded of his persistence, his seriousness, and his sorrow.
It seemed that those grievances were not so important anymore.
Therefore, Clarissa smiled with a pale face.
"Okay."
"I will wait for the day when you tell me the truth."
Soon, everybody found out that Clarrisa was awake.
Robert came over to check on her and confirmed that she was fine for the time being. But during this time, she had to stay in the bed until her pregnancy became stable.
It didn't matter. In any case, Clarissa and the twins were the most important.
Therefore, Anderson had been accompanying her and didn't leave her, not even a single step.
As for Coby's matter, he had already handed it over to Jara and Emmeline.
