Semua Bab The Day I Kissed An Older Man: Bab 2611 - Bab 2620

Time ticked away, minute by minute, until it was early morning. The three of them huddled together and pretended to sleep. In reality, Lucas and Henry were keeping their ears peeled for any sounds outside. Among them, only Claudia had managed to fall asleep.The events of the day had been too intense, and under the exhaustion of the night, she involuntarily drifted off to sleep. Henry felt particularly protective seeing Claudia sleeping with a frown.Regardless, this was their only chance to escape. When he heard the guards starting to snore, Henry opened his eyes, only to meet a pair of exceptionally bright eyes. Lucas had not been sleeping either."Just wait a little longer," Lucas silently mouthed to him.It was only midnight, and the kidnappers had not yet entered deep sleep. Escaping then would be risky; the best time would be between one and three o'clock in the morning."Got it," Henry gestured, then closed his eyes again, pretending to doze off.He still felt a dull ache

Eventually, Lucas nodded heavily. "Don't worry, Mister Henry. I won't break my promise.""Good. I can rest easy now that I have your assurance."With the die cast, there was nothing Claudia could do to change their minds. Lucas and Henry stealthily got up to lift the mesh wires on the large window at the back while she kept watch.Claudia dared not even breathe too loudly, afraid of waking up the two kidnappers outside, despite their loud snoring."Hurry up!" Claudia whispered urgently.Lucas and Henry were sweating profusely. Although it was easy to handle the wires, they had to be extremely careful not to make any noise, which made it quite difficult.Thud!Henry accidentally knocked on the window frame, producing a crisp sound that startled all three of them. Claudia stared anxiously at the two kidnappers, afraid they might wake up and ruin everything.Luckily, with a bit of alcohol in their systems and it being the wee hours of the morning, they remained deeply asleep and u

Lucas was about to leave when Claudia grabbed his wrist. "Our phones were confiscated. How am I supposed to know how long two minutes is? We don't need to rest. I'm not that tired. Let's keep going. My dad… He's already chosen to distract the kidnappers. We can't let his sacrifice go to waste."Claudia spoke through tears, which quickly mingled with the soil, disappearing."Okay," Lucas said, pulling Claudia up.Claudia felt like her legs were filled with lead; it was incredibly hard for her to take each step. Her chest felt like it had a bellows in it, making it painful for her to breathe."You need to adjust your breathing. Don't keep your mouth open. The wind will only make it more painful," Lucas advised.Claudia gradually felt a bit better as she followed the rhythm of Lucas' breathing while he kept listening carefully for any sounds behind them. It could mean trouble for Henry if there was a car honking. At that moment, all Lucas could do was pray.Finally, the police found

'My children, what will become of you? It seems like this is as far as I can go,' thought Henry."What should we do next, boss? This guy is barely alive and not much use anymore. He and that Rivera kid are totally different in terms of value! Damn this useless old man! He's to blame for helping our golden goose escape!"Stan shrugged off the concern. "Do you think making money is that easy? We'll just catch the Rivera kid again. Is that so difficult? If we could catch him once, we can catch him again. Besides, he's still accompanied by that little loser. With that girl around, how could they have run so far? Start searching along the perimeter of the house. I refuse to believe we can't find them!"Stan found the whole matter increasingly amusing. He thought he would receive the remaining payment early the next morning. He had not expected these three to have such energy to play a game with them in the dead of night.'If only I had broken their hands and feet earlier. At least then

"Quick, Grandma. We gotta go save Mister Henry!" Lucas only stayed in Beatrice's embrace for a few seconds before lifting his head. "We gotta hurry! The fact that this kidnapper found us probably means Mister Henry might be in danger!"Claudia snapped out of her shock upon hearing what Lucas said. She quickly grabbed the arm of a police officer. "Officer, please save my dad! My dad is still there. He might be in danger!"Beatrice patted Lucas' back before turning to Claudia. "Child, we've split into two teams. One team has gone to find your father. Don't worry, we haven't forgotten about him."Unfortunately, no amount of reassurance could ease Claudia's distress. She looked dazed, prompting Beatrice to have her assisted into the car. "Get her some water to drink. Let's go, Lucas. Get in the car."As for Manny, even though he was caught by the police, he continued to struggle. He tried to escape so that he could return and inform Stan about the newcomers. Unfortunately, they were fa
