Jeffrey Escapes

Mike drove and brought Melanda home quickly.

Mandy and Melanda's mother were waiting for them there too. Everyone was relieved to see them return safely.

Melanda's mother walked up and hugged her daughter. "Baby, I'm so scared. I'm glad you're safe." Melanda understood. After the car accident, her mother must have been worried sick. She comforted her mother and said, "Mom, it's almost over."

Just then, Mike's phone rang. It was the detective.

Jeffrey escaped.

Melanda had just escaped when the owner called 911. A few minutes later, Jeffrey went in to ask the owner. The owner said, "That woman took my car keys and took my car! I heard her call the police!"

Hearing that Melanda had called the police, Jeffrey cursed fiercely and drove away.

The police didn't meet him on the way to the gas station. It seemed like he had escaped in the other direction.
