The Day I Kissed An Older Man novel Chapter 2607

"I don't want to think about anything. I just want to prepare for my choir competition. Why am I so unlucky?"

Lucas' expression darkened even further. He knew all of this was because of him, but at that moment, Henry's words were more convincing. Nonetheless, he could not persuade Claudia to be optimistic, as he did not have that standing.

After Claudia's crying gradually subsided, Henry affectionately rubbed her head. "Silly girl, have you forgotten that Daddy is right beside you? Whatever happens, you just hide behind me, and I'll make sure nothing happens to you."

Ever since Claudia was young, her father had been like an immovable mountain, always protecting her. As she grew older, she started seeing her father as less of a superhero. Nonetheless, whenever there was an unexpected incident—like the kidnapping—she still felt that her father was the most reliable presence. She felt at ease as long as her father was with her.

"Dad..." Claudia was still very afraid, but she accepted her father's suggestion. Deep down, she understood that sitting there waiting to die was a dead end. Escaping might offer a glimmer of hope.

"Lucas, what's your plan?"

"Mister Henry, I want you to first check what kind of iron wires are on this window behind us, and whether we can rip them out."

They would have no chance of escape if it was the kind of iron bars commonly used in rural areas to seal windows. The only way out would be through the main door, but from there, they would be essentially walking into a death trap.

"Okay, give me a moment. I'll go take a look," Henry said as he clumsily struggled to get up.
