章 929: Negotiation to escape

When Ivy reached the lobby of the second floor, she stopped and listened to the symphony of sound downstairs. She carefully approached the railing, almost tiptoeing. She peeked over the railing, only to catch one man rushing out of the front door.

Ivy waited, waiting for another person who might come out, but no one came. After the last man left running out of the mansion, silence followed. Ivy held her breath as she gulped a mouthful. Her heart raced, almost leaping out of her ribcage. However, she mustered enough courage to make her way to the first floor. 

On the stairs, Ivy peeked down to see anyone around. She even ducked down the railings in an attempt to hide herself. When she peeked out a little, she caught only one person in the lobby.

Katherine.
