Henson gasped for air. Although he was scared, he didn't panic and stayed pretty calm. He whispered, "How do we get out of here?"
If it were just Estelle, she could easily fight her way out. But with Henson, she couldn't be sure and didn't dare to take any risks, as she wasn't sure what weapons their enemies might have.
She couldn't put Henson in any danger.
She quickly locked the door and pointed to the skylight above. "Climb up there, you go first!"
Henson immediately started looking for a way to climb up.
There was a tall wine rack in the room, but it was still far from the skylight. Estelle told Henson to climb the wine rack first, and then she followed.
Standing on the wine rack, Estelle leaped up, grabbed the edge of the skylight with one hand, and used her elbow to break the glass. She quickly grabbed the window frame and took off her jacket with the other hand, then threw it to Henson. "Hold on to it, I'll pull you over!"
Henson was worried that a single window frame couldn't bear the weight of both of them. He shook his head and said, "You go first, find my uncle, and come back to save me!"
Estelle said sternly, "No more nonsense, hurry up and grab on!"
Henson gritted his teeth, reached out, and grabbed Estelle's jacket, then tried to jump up.
The window frame creaked under the weight of both of them and Henson's jumping force. Estelle steadied her arm, and with all her strength, she pulled Henson up and helped him out of the broken window.
Estelle quickly climbed out of the skylight herself. Seeing that they were almost on the second floor of the villa, she used the same method to lower Henson to the ground before leaping down herself.
Her landing was light and agile, not making a sound.
Henson stared at her, amazed.
Estelle patted him on the shoulder and joked, "Save your admiration for later, let's get out of here first!"
Under the streetlights, she looked around for a place to park.
