After the heavy rain, the sky appeared clear, and the air was particularly fresh. The stars in the night sky looked brighter than usual.
Silvia was sitting on a rocking chair on the balcony. She looked up at the stars in the sky in a daze, thinking about ways to escape.
There were no TV, computers, or any other communication devices in this villa, which completely cut off her contact with the outside world.
It had been five days since she came here. For five days, she did not know what was going on outside, so she started to panic.
She did not know how the company that her father had worked so hard to set up was going, nor did she know how her mother was, who was lying on the hospital bed.
She was afraid that after she escaped, the ungrateful people of the Turner family would take over the company that her father left for her, and she was even more afraid that her mother's illness could not be treated in time.
No!
Silvia wiped away the tears that were welling up in her eyes and suddenly sat up.
She reminded herself that she was Silvia Turner, the daughter of Wateria Corporation's founder, Kurtson Turner. Her father died in an accident, and her mother fell critically ill. Now, she was the only pillar of her family.
No matter what dirty tricks her relatives from the Turner family used, she couldn't sit idly. She needed to think of another way to save Wateria Corporation and take good care of her mother on her father's behalf.
She knew that if she wanted to save the company, she must escape from here first. However, it was not easy to get out of here.
Earlier that morning, Silvia had hidden herself in the trunk of the car and escaped. But after a while, someone found her and she was brought back.
It was obvious that she could not use the same method to escape again. She could only think of other ways.
In the past few days, she carefully observed the terrain of the villa. This villa was a three-story villa, and there's a small yard in front of the house.
She realized that this villa was closely connected with the villa next door, and she could climb to the roof of the next villa.
Wait...
Did she actually think of an idea?
She could find a way to climb onto the villa next door. If she could get there, she could think of ways to escape later.
Silvia clapped her hands excitedly. Why didn't she think of this earlier? If she had thought of it earlier, she might have escaped.
She had always been a person of action. She was determined to execute her plan.
Silvia went back to her room and rummaged through the wardrobe. She found a set of black clothes. She changed her clothes quickly and was ready to run away.
Her room was on the third floor, and the stairwell to the top floor was just outside her room. Silvia went to the top of the building smoothly without alarming anyone.
There were some flowers and plants on the roof. Silvia didn't have the mood to look at them and appreciate them. She climbed over to the roof of the next villa swiftly and quietly.
It was strange that the door located on the roof of the next villa was unlocked, and she snuck into the house successfully.
She broke into someone else's house in the middle of the night and didn't know who lived there. Silvia was still a little flustered. She leaned against the wall and took a few deep breaths.
Now, she only hoped that the people in this house would not realize her presence.
Thud!
She didn't dare to turn on the light, so it was very dark in the corridor. She had just taken a few steps and then tripped over something. She sprained her ankle and fell to the ground.
"Ouch-"
She fell quite badly, and she was writhing in pain silently. She didn't want anyone to notice her.
She tried hard to stabilize herself and tried to get back up. When she was about to get up, a pair of slippers appeared in front of her.
When she looked closer, she found a man's feet.
Oh no, she had been discovered!
