Oh Please, My Ex-wife novel Chapter 99

“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.

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.
