Elias’ Crimes and Punishments of Romance

Lawrence Estate, late at night.

It was finally nighttime, and Amanda could carry out her plan. She pressed her ear against the door but heard no movement outside the room.

Then, she went to the window. She found that all the lights in the estate were off, indicating that everyone was asleep at the moment.

Therefore, she returned to the bed and took off the bedsheets and the quilt. She made a rope out of them before throwing it out of the window.

She looked down from the window. The rope was long enough to help her get to the ground.

Although it shouldn’t be too risky, she was still nervous. After all, it was her first time escaping from somewhere with a makeshift.

Sitting on the windowsill, she looked down at the lawn below. Lucky me. It isn’t too high from here. I could make it to the ground in no time.

She took a deep breath before holding onto the makeshift rope tightly as she slowly descended from the window.

It took Amanda nearly half an hour to reach the ground safely. By the time she reached the ground, she was covered in sweat and her heart was racing.

Exhausted, she collapsed on the lawn, gasping for breath.

Planning and practicing are different things, huh?

The combination of nervousness, excitement, and fear was agonizing. Fortunately, she landed safely.

After resting for a short while, she got up from the lawn and quickly left the area. She walked into somewhere darker.

Quietly, she arrived at Villa No. 5. She sneaked into the living room, which was pitch black. Everyone should be asleep.

She didn’t dare to take the elevator, so she had to ascend the stairs to reach the second floor. After opening the door, she saw Aiden curl up in bed, seemingly asleep.

Upon catching sight of her son, she burst into tears.

She walked into the room and closed the door. After that, she approached the bed, looking at her sleeping son.
