CHAPTER 20

In the building’s main lobby, three employees huddled near the front desk, whispering as they occasionally glanced at the meeting room upstairs. One of them, a woman dressed in corporate attire, was biting her nails—a clear sign of anxiety. “Have you heard? Accounting says our salaries might be delayed again,” one of them whispered urgently. “If this keeps up, we might not have jobs by the next quarter,” a male employee responded, gripping the handle of his bag tightly. “We should start looking for other jobs now,” another woman said sadly. She had been with the company since Leonard was CEO. “What do you think happened to Miss Lilliane?” The three exchanged glances at the mention of the company heiress. They hadn’t heard any news about her for a long time—the last being rumors of her upcoming marriage to the elderly media magnate. Meanwhile, on a quiet corner of the executive floor, a senior manager sat with a furrowed brow, scrolling through the financial report on his tablet. H

CHAPTER 21

“Are you sure about this decision?” Consuelo asked, her voice filled with concern. Lilliane nodded slowly. “Yes, ‘Nay. I’ll come back to you. I won’t be staying long in Manila. I just need to do this for myself and my baby,” she explained. Consuelo took a deep breath before reaching for Lilliane’s hands. She accompanied her to the bus terminal in Tuguegarao, with her nephew driving them there. It was just past four in the morning, the time Lilliane had chosen to travel back to Manila. The journey to Tuguegarao took three hours, and from there, the bus ride to Cubao would take between ten to twelve hours—since it was the earliest schedule available. If she were to take a bus to Pasay or Sampaloc, the earliest trips from Tuguegarao wouldn’t be until six or eight in the morning. She didn’t want to arrive in Manila after dark, nor did she want to stay there any longer than necessary. She planned to return immediately, even though she knew it would be exhausting. She needed to mislead

On the other line, a sharp voice greeted the informant. “Where?” “Mall of Asia. About 23 minutes ago.” The informant's fingers trembled slightly as he typed a quick command to confirm the ATM details. Mall of Asia, Pasay City Terminal. The timestamp read 4:17 PM. “She just withdrew ten thousand at Mall of Asia. Want me to dig deeper, boss?” the man added. A brief static noise filled the line before a low voice responded. “Send me everything. Location, timestamps. I’ll handle the rest.” The informant nodded, his pulse quickening. “Consider it done.” With a few swift keystrokes, he sent the data packet and leaned back with a sly smile. The day he had been waiting for had finally arrived—the promise of additional payment once he delivered the information that would lead them to capture Ms. Olivares. Meanwhile, Ruel quickly gathered their men in preparation for capturing Lilliane. Some of them—including him—immediately headed to Mall of Asia to check the CCTV footage. Once the

Proceed with caution. *** Lilliane quickly got out of the taxi and didn’t bother waiting for change. She had no time to waste—she was certain someone was already after her. Her heart pounded rapidly, but she kept her movements calm so as not to panic or lose track of her plan. She asked a woman for the time, who told her it was already 4:50 in the afternoon. She thanked her quickly and went to the front of the terminal she had passed earlier. A bus conductor was calling for passengers bound for Lucena—the bus was about to leave. Without hesitation, she boarded and went straight to the back, not knowing exactly where that place would lead her. She took a deep breath once seated. She didn’t care if the person in front or beside
