Chapter: 1080
In no time, he rolled up both of his sleeves, took a few steps back, and sprinted towards the wall, climbing it effortlessly.

Under the moonlight, the man's cool and well-defined arm muscles were quite noticeable.

Claudia's eyes widened in slight awe.

His biceps were incredibly strong!

"Ready, Cece." Bennett adjusted his position and called her softly.

As soon as he finished speaking, the guard's rebuke came from not far away.

"Who's there? Who are you? Why are you here?"

Upon hearing the guard's voice, Claudia, who had just removed her high heels, quickly tossed them over the wall and grasped Bennett's hand.

Bennett hoisted her up swiftly. The distance between them and the approaching guard was merely over 10 meters.

"Stay close to the wall. I'll go down first."

Claudia, her heart racing, pressed herself against the wall and urged, “Hurry up and jump!"

Getting caught herself wasn't the concern. The real problem was Bennett getting caught.

Bennett released her and took the leap.

He then reached out, arms wide open for her.

By then, the guard, flashlight in hand, had almost reached the wall.

Without hesitation, Claudia leaped into Bennett's awaiting arms.

The moment she landed in Bennett's arms, she distinctly heard the guard's irate voice from the other side of the wall.

She gazed up at Bennett, murmuring, “That was too close."

Bennett smiled and picked the high heels up.

Claudia expected him to help her put on the high-heeled shoes as he did after their first climb, but to her surprise, he carried her to the gate while holding her high heels in his hands.

If the guard hadn't been cursing inside, it would have been like a romantic plot of a drama.

Bennett moved briskly, and soon they were back at their car.

Just then, a commotion echoed from the cemetery's entrance. Claudia glanced at Bennett, remarking, "Sounds like he's giving chase."

Obviously, Bennett had noticed too.
