Cutie, Please Marry Me Again (Jenna and Hansen) novel Chapter 1353

Before the bouncer left, he glanced at Raeleigh for a while, saying, "Don't worry, with me here, nothing will happen to you."

"I have money. I'll let you study as you wish."

With that, he closed the door and left. Raeleigh gazed at the doorway before she took out her phone to send a text message to Jacky, telling him that he should send in another group of men because his first batch had gotten into trouble, and that she couldn't rescue Santiago as his bones had been fractured.

"Later, I'll go down to find the switchboard and turn it off. Pandemonium will erupt in the bar while the guards at the basement will face difficulties too since there's no electricity, and the elevator will be out of order. I will find a way to go down. Wait for me outside."

"Don't be reckless. Wait for my people to go in. As long as we confirm that Santiago is in the basement, there will be no problem."

Raeleigh stood up without answering.

She could not wait any longer.

She came out of the room with the original intention of finding the switchboard. But on second thought, she decided to blow down the power lines here.

She found a torchlight and carried it with her. Next, she got herself a paring knife, walked to the wires in the room, squatted down, and cut open the cable jacket. There were several exposed wires inside. She tried to cut them, but there were sparks, which scared Raeleigh so much that she chucked the knife onto the ground.

After a moment of hesitation, the only things in Raeleigh's mind were the scenes where Santiago was tied up and his terribly wounded body, and where the bouncer told her about Santiago's fractured bones. She couldn't afford to waste any more time.

She gripped the knife once again, gnashed her teeth, made up her mind, took off her high-heeled shoes, and put them aside. She let out a breath, wishing that she was on unpaved ground, so that it would be safer. However, she could only rely on luck at the moment. If she turned off the switchboard, then it would be turned back on by Terek's men soon. If the problem occurred somewhere else, then it could cause them to take longer to locate the source.

Raeleigh only hoped that the current would be transmitted through her to the ground instead of electrocuting her.

After taking a breath, she struck the knife to the wires while gritting her teeth. As the sparks flew out, she withdrew the knife. At last, the sparks had vanished, and the wires broke into two. Raeleigh then sat on the ground. "Thank goodness, I'm still alive!"

Raeleigh was not injured, but she was scared half to death. She rose and headed for the door. Meanwhile, she surveyed the pitch- black room. Outside, all h*ll broke loose.

Raeleigh opened the door and went out, but she soon retraced her steps to reverse the condition of the wires and prevent Terek's men from noticing the abnormality, should they come in.

After she was done, she turned around, went out, and locked the door. Then, she went off in a direction according to her memory.

Raeleigh weaved her way through the chaotic crowd and walked all the way to the door of the basement. Someone swept a flashlight around the bar. Raeleigh evaded it at once. Finally, she reached the door of the basement. Raeleigh fumbled about in the dark for a moment, found the stairway, and descended it.

Raeleigh was not wearing shoes, so she could walk lighter and faster.

Arriving at the underground, she spied around. There was a door to the basement.

Concurrently, some people came out of it, including Terek. Although Raeleigh didn't know them, she could tell it based on the way he spoke and his demeanor.

Raeleigh squatted in the corner. Terek ascended the stairs directly with his subordinates. They left in a hurry. Terek said, "Check if someone has snuck in. Make sure you keep an eye on him."

"Yes, sir."

Terek left. One of his subordinates went back into the basement.
