OH PLEASE, MY EX-WIFE

Chapter 99: Escape



"He was deceived, why should I talk to him?" Albert says, without even turning around to look, clearly, he has no idea that Edward is very upset. Rebecca, who hears that, purses her lips, but doesn't add anything.

...

John keeps watching everyday, taking notes on his pad, as soon as he sees the door of the house open, and waits for the best timing.

No matter if it's for Alice, or for himself, he is not going to stay locked up here anymore.

And there is also a video of the mayor's bribe taking, and so many more evidence for his dirty work that happened in the house.

Maybe this is all because John will never be set free again, but he has seen so much in this house, and his guard has not been caring much about him lately.

There is finally one day, in which John hears his guards talk about some goods that will arrive in the evening, and their troupe will soon leave to get it, while only one guard will stay with John to keep an eye on him. His chances are coming. That night, there are much less people in the house, and John takes out the stick he took off from furniture, to hide it behind under his body. Then he lies down on the bed and starts to whimper.

The guard outside shows no reaction to that, and John raises his voice, and yells, "Help me, please help me!"

The guard who is left behind to look after John is sleeping, and suddenly wakes up from his dreams, he knits his brows and says, "God who is that, so annoying, why don't you just let me sleep?" He opens the door, and sees John rolled up on the floor, yelling in pain.

"What happened, hey, are you dead?" He says, and kneels down beside John, but he doesn't really care about the situation.

BAMM, suddenly John jumps up and hits the guard with his stick hard, till he falls on the ground, without even realizing what happened.

John looks at him for a second, then he turns him over to search his pockets, till be finds a key in his pocked. It is only the key to the small room, but still better than nothing. At least he is able to leave that room, everything else will be up to luck. Not to leave too much to chance, he takes out all the money he can find in the pockets, and the phone, then he ties up the person, and hit him another time, which is more to release his own anger.

John takes out the blueprint he drew of the house in the past few days, and quickly finds the location of the door, only one more step, and he will be free.

Then, just as John imagined in his dreams, he successfully leaves the house, because of the reason that everyone is away for the goods, there are only few people left to keep an eye on him, and John walks on the side of the roads.

It is nighttime, but he still quickly finds the nearest road, and now the only thing he asks for is to find a car that will drop him.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

The night is dark as it can be, without a moon shining on the streets, and suddenly, a car comes closer to him. John starts to wave his arms, as if life depends on it, but the driver doesn't see him.

John realizes where the problem is, and takes off his shirt, to use as a flag when waving on the side of the road.

Another car passes, and the driver sees the flying shirt in the air with John on the side, he is about to stop, when his wife convinces him that in the middle of the night with a naked man waving his shirt, they shouldn't stop in that situation, so this car also leaves. John laughs bitterly to himself, a person like him who usually pays great attention to his appearance, now stands on the side of the street naked. If his friends gets wind of that, they will mock him.

He walks along the side and another car passes, but it is going into the direction of the house. He figures, the most dangerous place might be the safest, so John starts to wave his shirt again, till the car stops. John is relieved, he will finally go back to his own life. He gets on the car quickly, and thanks the driver, when the person on the passenger seat turns, and smiles at him, "No problem!"

It is the mayor!

John is startled, he is digging his own grave right now.

"I wonder where Mister Blake is going. It's the middle of the night, why don't you come to my house for a night?"

He still has this warm look on his face, and stares at John with a smile, as if they are old friends who bumped into each other on the road.

But John knows, this is just show, he knows that he has no choice, so he calms down, and says, "Thank you Mister Mayor."

The two of them look at each other, one with a smile in his eyes like a spring breeze, and the other on alert of falling into a trap.

It doesn't take much longer before they arrive at the house, from which John just ran away, he ran a long time just to get about 3km from it, and now he is back again. John doesn't know how he should face this situation. When George arrives, their goods are already back, and the people who went to get it are also back.

The guard that John tied up before he left is also released, and when he sees John, he gets overly excited, but because George is behind him, he doesn't beat John up. George throws a look at him, and he is immediately quiet.

"So how has Mister Blake been these days in my house? I am not sure about anything else, but I do know that the view from here is wonderful. What do you think?" Now the two of them do not have any secrets anymore.

George knows about John's caught up details, he knows that John found out the house is his. Even though, John was really surprised when his mask was taken off.

Now that everything is out in the open, and George is here personally, John's chances of ever getting away again are very low, or even not existing.

When he realizes that, he takes out the recording device and starts it.

"George, let's just talk about it directly, when I woke up here, it must have been your plan right? But if you let me go, I am going to pretend like this never happened, this house really has a great view."

Even though this is an abduction, but it is also showing false weakness. If George lets him go, then he will search for Edward after getting out, and ask him to get things done. But if not, at least he wants to record George's confession. "Ha-ha, Mister Blake, I think you can stop now, I am not going to say anything else. Guards, search him!"000000
