Chapter 83 The Unexpected Twist
Early Morning.
A squad of cops quietly surrounded the villa's slopes.
Chris had no clue about the looming danger. When he got back to his room, he found the door locked.
"Ashley, open up!"
"Chris, I'm already in bed. Go sleep in another room."
Ashley said this while nervously fiddling with something.
She had copied the key to the chains and was now trying to fix it.
Chris was getting annoyed. "Ashley, open the door and let me in!"
He thought about breaking it down.
"You don't need to break the door. You chained my hands and feet. Do you think I can run away?"
Chris paused, realizing she had a point.
"Fine, I'll let you off tonight!"
He turned and left.
As he did, a shadowy figure slipped by.
Ethan, dressed in black, snuck into the villa. But there were so many rooms, he had to search them one by one.
Ashley finally made the key and eagerly inserted it into the lock.
With a 'click,' it opened!
She was overjoyed!
She climbed out the window, moving swiftly and cautiously down from the second floor.
Just then, Ethan entered the room. He saw the chains on the floor, hesitated, but continued searching other rooms.
Ashley, barefoot, took advantage of a patrol's distraction and escaped into the dark forest.
Ethan searched almost every room but found no trace of Ashley, growing more anxious.
"Mr. Yates, Ashley's position is changing. She must be moving outside!"
Ethan felt a bit relieved. "Send me her location."
"OK!"
Soon, Pauline sent Ashley's location to Ethan's phone.
Ethan saw she was nearby and had likely escaped the villa.
He spoke into his walkie-talkie, "Ashley has escaped. The rest is up to you!"
With that, Ethan climbed out the window, looking both cool and sophisticated.
Shortly after Ethan left, a large group of police officers surrounded the villa.
"Mr. Scott, it's bad. The police are here."
Chris felt a sense of doom. He rushed to Ashley's room, knocked, but got no response. He kicked the door open.
The room was empty, with only the chains on the floor.
"Damn it, she escaped."
"Mr. Scott, the police are breaking in."
"Hurry, take me to the secret room!"
A group of people escorted Chris to the secret room. Filled with intense hatred, Chris escaped through a tunnel.
Ryan led the police in a thorough search but still let Chris escape!
Ethan was searching for Ashley in the forest.
"Ashley! Where are you?" he shouted.
Ashley, clutching her abdomen, ran barefoot, her feet bleeding from the branches.
Suddenly, she heard a familiar voice.
"Ethan?"
'Am I hearing things? How could Ethan be here?'
She walked down the slope and finally found a concrete road.
Ashley breathed a sigh of relief. Just as she reached the roadside, a car approached from a distance.
The car's headlights were so bright she couldn't open her eyes. She shielded them with her hand and squinted, only to see Chris's face!
Chris's face was terrifying. Ashley screamed and was about to step back when the car suddenly sped towards her!
With a 'bang,' Ashley was thrown into the air by the car!
Ethan came down the slope and saw this, his heart pounding. "Ashley!"
