Chapter 1906 Finally Escaped
“What is it?” she responded.
“N-Nothing! Just making sure you’re okay, that’s all!” Sloan replied cautiously.
“I’m fine! There’s just a little problem with the examination, so it’s taking a bit longer than usual. Stop rushing me!” Francesca came up with an excuse on the fly to stall for more time.
“Got it!” Sloan didn’t think much about it.
“Men aren’t allowed in here, so go wait outside!” Francesca added.
“All right.”
As Sloan walked down the corridor, Francesca vaulted out the window of the seventh floor and began climbing down the pipe.
Sloan had barely taken a few steps when he too, felt something was amiss.
Hold on… I only heard Ms. Cece’s voice in there. I didn’t hear any of the nurses or doctors at all! We may have been trying to keep a low profile, but the medical staff are still aware of our background and fear us deeply. Under normal circumstances, they would definitely have said something when I checked on her earlier! Something is definitely wrong here!
With that in mind, Sloan returned to the examination room and knocked on the door again. “Ms. Cece?”
This time, there was no response at all.
“Ms. Cece? Ms. Cece!” he called out to her two more times, but there was still no response.
Feeling anxious, Sloan wanted to push the door open to have a look. However, the thought of potentially walking in on an inappropriate moment and angering Francesca stopped him from doing so.
After a brief moment of hesitation, he ran into the empty room next to it and looked out the window.
His eyes went wide in horror when he saw Francesca reaching the bottom of the pipe outside.
Francesca happened to look in his direction when he was about to call out to her, and the two of them maintained eye contact for a few seconds.
Before he could even react, she made a shushing motion at him and quickly hailed herself a cab.
Sloan was so shocked that he simply stood there and watched the cab speed off into the distance. It took him quite a while to regain his composure, and he began to panic as the realization hit him.
His mission was to serve Danrique with unconditional loyalty, and yet he instinctively chose to betray him by helping Francesca.
