F1 Champion's Perfect Crash: When Love Takes The Final Turn novel Chapter 140

Ava, who also heard the noise and footsteps, frowned and said, "Someone's back."

My expression changed slightly, and I immediately closed the documents. "Ava, let's get out of here." I said.

Ava furrowed her eyebrows, "The person is coming upstairs. If we leave now, we might run into them."

I quickly surveyed the area, "We can't hide in the study; they will find it soon. We..."

My gaze fell on the window next to the study, "Let's go through the window. You go first, hurry!"

Ava glanced at me but didn't argue. We had to get away before we are seen by whoever came into the Lopez family villa. She quickly climbed out of the window and descended along the water pipe.

I walked to the study's entrance, locked the door from the inside, and then quickly climbed out of the window.

As Ava was halfway down the water pipe, she saw me climb out of the window, and she breathed a sigh of relief.

Neither of us had ever done anything so dangerous before, and Ava, whose body is not conditioned to do extreme physical activities like what we are doing right now, found it difficult to climb down the water pipe. Her hands were cut, and her arms trembled slightly as she climbed down.

I had just climbed onto the water pipe when I heard someone kick the study door.

I suspected that Victoria had returned, as otherwise, other people wouldn't have headed directly to the study.

As I was thinking this, I suddenly heard someone using a heavy object to hit the study room door.

With a loud thud, my heart pounded, realizing that they were trying to forcibly break open the locked door.

However, I lacked strength in my hands, and like Ava, I lacked the physical strength to be going down through a water pipe. And when I reached the space between the second and first floor, I fell directly from the water pipe.

Although the height wasn't alarming, I was unprepared, and I twisted my foot. The sudden pain shot through my ankle, causing me to wince in discomfort. Ava's cold little face changed dramatically, and she worriedly looked at me, whispering, "Aurelia, are you okay?"

I shook my head slightly, trying to mask the pain in my voice, "Let's go through the back door, quickly. She will find the study as soon as she enters." I knew we had to act swiftly if we were going to escape undetected.

Ava nodded, understanding the urgency in her friend's words, and turned around to crouch down, "I'll carry you." Despite her petite frame, she was determined to help me get out of the Lopez Family villa safely.

I didn't refuse the offer; I knew that I needed to get out of there, and Ava's help was my best chance. As long as I left the villa, I still had something to hold against Victoria, something that could protect me from her wrath.

Ava struggled to carry my weight but driven by determination, we quickly made it to the back door and slipped out unnoticed. The cool night air outside brought some relief to me, but I knew we couldn't relax just yet.

Once we were in the car, Ava started the engine, and I finally breathed a sigh of relief. The adrenaline was still pumping through my veins as we drove away from the Lopez family villa, leaving behind the chaos and danger.

Just as we had left the villa's premises, I hadn't even had a chance to look at the letter when my phone rang, interrupting the tense silence. Ava glanced at me with a furrowed brow and asked in a cold tone, "Who is it?"

My face tensed a little as I took a quick glance at my phone screen. "It's my mom," I said, my voice trembling slightly from the lingering fear and anxiety.

"Answer it," Ava urged, her eyes never leaving the road, keeping both of us safe.
