Lucas's words were barely audible, but Emily felt a surge of adrenaline as she nodded in agreement. She knew that she had to get out of the law firm, and fast.
Without hesitation, Lucas grabbed her hand and pulled her down the hallway, away from the conference room. Alex followed close behind, his eyes scanning the area nervously.
As they moved quickly through the hallways, Emily couldn't help but feel like she was in a scene from a movie. The tension was palpable, and she knew that they were taking a huge risk by trying to escape.
But she also knew that she had to get out of there. She couldn't just sit back and do nothing, not after what Alex had told her.
As they approached the elevators, Lucas hesitated, looking around nervously. "We can't take the elevators," he whispered. "They'll be watching them."
Alex nodded in agreement. "I know a way out," he said. "Follow me."
Without hesitation, Alex led them to a stairwell, and they began to make their way down, their footsteps echoing off the walls.
As they descended, Emily couldn't help but feel like she was leaving behind a part of herself. She had worked so hard to get to where she was, and now she was walking away from it all.
But she knew that she had no choice. She had to get out of there, and she had to get to the bottom of what was going on.
As they reached the bottom of the stairwell, Alex pushed open the door, and they found themselves in a dimly lit alleyway.
The cool night air hit Emily like a slap in the face, and she felt a surge of freedom. They had made it out of the law firm, and they were one step closer to uncovering the truth.
But as they stood there, catching their breath, Emily couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched. She looked around nervously, but saw nothing.
"Let's get out of here," Lucas said, his voice low. "We can't stay here for long."
Without hesitation, they began to move through the alleyway, their footsteps echoing off the walls. They knew that they had to keep moving, had to keep pushing forward.
But as they disappeared into the night, Emily couldn't help but wonder what lay ahead. Would they be able to uncover the truth? Or would they become the next victims of the law firm's sinister games?
