Chapter 114: Chapter 114
Author's POV
Angela went to the garden with Lara as the other maid got some other work to do.
Angela looked at her surroundings with a pleasing gaze as it has been many days since she directly came to sunlight and took a great sunbath and it feels truly good.
She can finally breathe in the fresh wind, this is something, she missed so much. The green surrounding made her so much more relaxed that now she just hopes everything goes well and she can finally succeed in running from here. To get her freedom back.
Moreover, she prayed Eric wouldn't show up until the next morning.
Because she made a plan to run tonight. And if the plan goes well, she will escape without any problem. And this time, she's not going to make the same mistake. She promised herself.
Moreover, before executing her escape plan, she wanted to check on the security guards first. She needs to know how many guards are there outside and how to get rid of them.
While walking in the garden, her eyes roamed everywhere, where she could find the guards standing. She's making a mental note of all steps while she got new information from Lara that they changed their position between 10 pm. It means she needs to work on that time. Yes, it will be helping her to hide without being caught by them.
"Madam, it's already an hour. We need to go back…" Lara looked at Angela and said in hesitation because no one loves to tell anyone. You need to lock up now.
"Yeah! Let's go!" Angela gave a small smile to her which made Lara smile. She thought Angela is a tough woman and if she is in her place, she can't stop crying. She admired Angela.
Both of them went to the bedroom. Lara told her she will come to check her next hour, to which Angela nodded and thanked her for accompanying her on a walk even when she was busy with her work and more importantly tired.
Lara felt glad and told her, this was what Sir told them to do. Angela understood what she meant but only showed a lower smile.
After Lara left, Angela immediately rushed toward the bedside cupboard. She opened the first drawer to find the pen and paper.
She remembers all the mental notes age made for guards and went to bed to take a seat and write all the guard's positions one by one. They are more than before. She can't exactly count but more than 10. It means it's going to be a big issue.
She makes a house map and draws the points in every area where she saw them stand.

Eric saw Angela walking in the garden through his phone footage and felt glad to see her happy after a long time but he felt happier if she felt delighted to see him again. But he knew, he does not matter to her. And this truth stings him so much.
He checks the footage zooming into her face for a long time before finally getting back to his senses and thinking that everything looks fine and normal there.
Moreover, he already got an air ticket for going back to his city, go back to his Angela!
He missed her so much in these few days. There was not a single second when he didn't think about her. And after knowing her health is not well. He wanted to come back fast.
So, when his work was finally completed, and he attended the party last night.
The first thing he did after that was book the ticket. He wanted to go back home as soon as possible to meet Angela, without any issues.
The weather is also good in 'H City' after the last two days raining nonstop, which means there is no chance anything makes him stop going back and seeing Angela.
"Madam, do you need anything?" Lara comes to check on Angela.
"Yeah, I need a mystery novel book. Could you please bring some novel books for me, from Eric's study room?" Angela looked at her with a small smile.
"Books?" Lara was confusedly looking at her.
"It's just boring here. So, for spending time, the book is a good source, don't you think?" Angela's words made her understand why she needed the book.
"Yeah sure, Mam! I'll bring good books for you!" Lara brightly responded and left the room just to come back with a few books in her hands.
"You brought too many books!" Angela chuckled.
Lara felt embarrassed and her cheeks turned red.
"Actually, Madam, I love to read mysterious books so much. I always read one book at least late at night. And all these books are written by great authors. They all are truly so good that I brought every single piece of the book which was available in Sir's study room." Lara awkwardly explained with an innocent smile.
Angela felt Lara is a sweet girl.
"Ohh if this is the case! I'll read it! I need something to pass my time!" Angela takes all the books from her in her arms.
"You can go now!" Angela gave a small smile.
Lara nodded and went back to her duty.
Angela looked at the books and put them on the table.
She asked for books only to make them distract, and make them feel like she no longer wanted to run or think about it. And now started to adjust to her life.
However, more than that. When at night, her light is going to turn on…everyone would think she was reading a book. They are not going to be suspicious about anything. Moreover, She guessed that all maids should give my daily life information to Eric. So, it turned out to be more important to act like this.
"God! Please help me this time!" Angela breathed out deeply as she thought about the night. When her final plan needs to be executed.

"Sir, Madam asked for books, that's why the female servant went to your study room."
On the other side, Eric saw footage of the maid bringing the book from the study room to Angela, so he immediately asked about it, calling the one of a maid.
"Alright, but don't lose sight of her," Eric ordered.
"Yes Sir!" The maid responded in a hurry while Eric, without caring, disconnected the call and thought about Angela.
"Angela, do you truly not plan to run anymore?" Eric whispered out.
