After dropping two consecutive calls, nagpatuloy sa pagmamaneho si Ruella papunta sa airport. This time, her concern doubled thus she speed up like a racer.Her secretary was silently clutching his seatbelts while his eyes were tightly shut.Ilang minuto lamang ang kanyang ginugol at nakarating din sila. Dali-dali itong lumabas sa kanyang sasakyan at tumakbo sa loob upang habulin ang kanyang ama leaving her secretary after giving out a few instructions.Dumiretso siya sa private room kung saan madalas nagpapalipas ng oras ang kanyang ama at hindi naman ito nabigo. Nakita niya itong nakaupo at kasalukuyang may kausap sa telepono.She silently took the seat beside him and waited till his call gets done."I'm leaving the country at hindi ko alam kung kailan ang balik ko. Yes, Ruella is in charge of everything." She heard him say and she wondered whom he was talking to."I'm sorry." She heard him giving out an exasperated sigh. "I may be her father but I don't mean to interfere in her pri

Oliver couldn't describe how he felt. A lot of questions began forming in his head and either Sofia or Ruella can answer but he doubt if one of them would be honest enough to tell the whole story. However, he must at least try to find the answers to those bugging questions or he might go crazy.He called Sofia out then they went to a place where they could talk in peace. Sofia who was panicking earlier, manage to calm down her inner turmoil and decided to act naturally. Without showing any signs of disorientation, she smiled at him and asked."Ollie, what's the occasion?""Wala lang. Naisip ko lang na lumabas kasama ka. In a few days, I won't be able to do this kind of stuff with you so I took advantage of this rare opportunity." He replied trying to sound casual as he used to be. "Na-nagkita ba kayo ni dad?" Tanong ni Sofia.Tumango si Oliver ng marahan before he faces her. "What was he talking about, Sofia? He said that the incident this morning was related to that accident last y

Instead of calling Emman, Oliver dialed Tommy's number in a hurry."What the hell is going on?!"He asked the man directly because he knows that Ruella must've told him everything before heading towards her destination.Tommy snorted coldly. "I'm not one of your employees, Mr. Mitchell. I don't owe you any explanation.""Tell me what's going on!" Oliver demanded haughtily. "Ruella might be in danger!""You seemed confused." Tommy chuckled disapprovingly. "Ruella is mine to protect and Sofia is your responsibility. I hope you know that!""This is a matter between life and death! How could you be so-...""If you're curious, why not go back to your apartment? You should've got a good view from there." He said before he dropped the call.Oliver's jaw clenched as he dialed Emman's number."Dude, where are you? I've been trying to reach you since last night." Emman questioned right away.However, Oliver ignored his rants and shouted in panic. "I'll send you the location! Sunduin mo 'ko! Dal

Despite the pain in her arm, Sofia managed to get out of Ruella's unit and headed towards the elevator upang tumakas dahil natatakot siyang maaresto ng mga pulis.Ang buong akala niya ay makakaalis na siya kapag tumigil ang elevator ngunit laking gulat niya ng makita ang apat na lalaki.Nakatingin ito parehas sa kanya pagkalabas pa lang ng elevator.Sofia lowered her head in defeat and slumped on the floor while clutching her bleeding arm."Sofia!""Anong nangyari?"Dali-daling lumapit si Emman at Oliver sa kanya habang dinaanan lamang siya ni Tommy at Joseph.Dumiretso ang dalawa sa unit ni Ruella at makalaan pa ang ilang minuto, Tommy went out with Ruella, bleeding in his arms while Joseph was busy talking in his phone.Tumigil ito sa tapat nila at nagsalita kay Sofia. "You dared try to kill her again, don't you? I won't let you off the hook this time!"Sofia shook her head, looking deathly pale. "It... It wasn't me!"Pagkatapos makipag-usap sa telepono, Joseph also approached them,

Mabilis kumalat ang balita tungkol sa naging aksidente at pagkaospital ni Ruella ganun din ang pagkaaresto ni Sofia.Naging usap-usapan ang kanilang nakaraan and the netizens are actively joining the gossip as they found it interesting, causing every platform on social media to go hyped.Ilang oras pa lamang ang nakalipas ng pakawalan ni Tommy ang ebidensya and Sofia was directly sent in the interrogation room with her lawyer for questioning.Sofia tried to deny the charges against her as she stood confident and firm using her lawyer's tricks. However, the person who came to interrogate her was fed up and decided to throw a bomb into their face.Seeing all the evidence laid in front of her, she was rendered speechless as well as her lawyer, and by the end of the day, himas rehas ang dalaga kasama ng mga detainee na ngayo'y nakatitig sa kanya ng masama.Sofia shivered in the corner, bearing the pain in her arm while cursing Sierra in her mind.'Napakatanga ko! Bakit ba ako naniniwala s
