I cried at that time. It seems that I made a mistake in going out of the house so now I am still in danger.

"What else do you need from me? I did everything, I served as your assistant for several years. Why are you doing this to me?"

And you're still asking that question after you ruined my name? Do you think I'll let it go like that? That I can only fall for someone like you? He told me strongly.

"Please, Julius. Leave me and my son alone. Stop torturing us both. Have mercy, Julius...

It's a silly laugh. It's like he's going crazy and he's more happy when he sees me hurt.

"What do you think of me? I will feel sorry for your crying? Don't you know the reason for my return here to the Philippines? I found out that Shantel's father was robbing me. And I also found out that I was adopted and that I was not the heir of the riches but my brother Jomar who I thought was. I have nothing left, because it's yours Aira!

"W-why me? Why do you blame me for what happened to you? I asked in shock.

"Because if it wasn't for you cheating on me, I wouldn't have gone to the States to study there and I wouldn't have met that father and son who gradually stole from the company I built. And now the police are looking for me, because of what you did too! I ran to hopefully ask my parents for help but they pushed me away and humiliated me, at the same time they admitted to me that they just adopted me and won't bequeath me anything because of what happened in my life. Now, who do you want me to blame for why my life turned out like this?! He stood up angrily and turned his back on me.

"Forgive me for what I did before, Julius. It's true that I loved you before, but because of my friends I couldn't defend you. I blame myself for the mistake I made with you before."

"It's no use asking for forgiveness because you can't turn back time."

"What else do you want me to do, Julius? What else do you want me to do just to calm you down?

"Admit to the police that I am innocent of your mother and you. Admit that you were happy with me and you only managed to stay away because you were jealous. Confess everything so the police will stop me. Only then can I recover the wealth that should be bequeathed to me."

Until now, Julius is still only thinking about himself. But I feel sorry for him because no one truly loves him.

I won't do that, Julius. You know I wasn't really happy with you. All my life I have experienced nothing but suffering."

His ears perked up when he heard it and suddenly he slapped me. My lip bled because of the force of his slap which resulted in my lip cracking.

You're still really stubborn until now?! What makes you think that Sean is going to defend you? Maybe you're forgetting that I'm still your wife and I have more rights to you than your husband! So if you don't want your son to be harmed too, don't make my head hot!"Because of the fear that it might affect Jordan, I hastily agreed to what he wanted. When I actually got to Jordan, I was restless.

"Don't hurt my son! I'll do what you want, just don't blame Jordan. Have mercy on the boy, Julius! Let me go and I will go to the police station to confess everything to them, as you want it to happen."

He laughed again at what I said. It's like he's just playing and toying with me that he can turn me around and let me go so easily.

"What do you think of me, stupid? That you think that if I let you go, I will believe that you will follow my wishes? You can't fool me, Aira! I will untie you and you will face the camera. We'll make a video of the two of us pretending to be happy and then you'll admit that I'm innocent of everything. We will forward that to the PNP so that my name is cleared and we can leave the country."

Julius still won't let me go after I obeyed his wishes, but I'll just drive him to loosen me up and give me time to escape.

"Alright, I'll do everything you say."

Julius had already removed my hand and foot ties but he was still watching over me. That room was also locked so I knew I couldn't just escape. I will do everything to save my son even if I die.

BEFORE starting the video, Julius set-up first, to make it look like I was in good shape. While it was busy, I observed the entire environment to find something I could use as a weapon. I saw nothing but a wooden antique on display near the sofa. It just sits on a cabinet. Just a few moments later, Julius finished what he was doing and sat down next to me. He looked at me and noticed that my lips were bloody from his slapping me earlier.

"First tell in the video how you got the wound on your lip. Say that Sean hurt you, and now he kidnapped our son. Ask for help to get our son back from the police. Then explain that we are happy and we are not in trouble. That's what you say in the video, do you understand Aira?

What is Julius saying? He's going to make Sean out to be the one to blame for everything and he's going to go to jail instead of him? This cannot happen so I will find a way to escape.

"Alright, but can I pee for a while first? So that I don't look tense in the video.

It stared at me for a moment, apparently wondering if I would be allowed to pee.

"I'll be here for a while, don't worry because I'll do what you want. I don't want my son's life to be ruined so I won't do anything to make you angry. I will try to convince him.

Finally he agreed. "That door is the bathroom. Hurry up and I don't want to keep me waiting for a long time."I nodded quickly standing up. Headed to a door and quickly entered it. The bathroom is spacious, but there aren't many things in there, apart from the bowl cleaner.

"Hurry up, Aira!" he said.

So I quickly went out. I glanced at the wooden display in the cabinet again before sitting down next to Julius.

"Let's start," he said.

He stood up to press the start of the video, I was a little nervous so I didn't have the courage to do what I planned. I didn't speak at first and waited for him to sit down. Until the video starts. I still stammered a bit in the video until I finished what he wanted me to say in the video. I was very scared of Julius but I had to be brave because no one else would help me. He stood up smiling to take the camera in front of us.

I can't wait to pass this so those stupid cops can stop me! I will make sure that it is not me who will be imprisoned here but that sean! He grinned while taking out the sd card of the camera. He didn't notice that I had followed behind him, so when he faced me, he was surprised.

"What you want won't happen, because I won't allow you to succeed, Julius!" After saying that, I quickly poured the muriatic acid I got from cr. It poured on his face and hit his eye so he dropped the camera and quickly rubbed his face. But because of the strength of the muriatic acid it was like burning his face. My hand was also a bit sore because it leaked out of my hand, but I didn't care and quickly took the display from the cabinet. I also quickly hit Julius on the head so that he fell to the floor. I saw how he fainted, and how his face gradually turned red from the muriatic. While it was unconscious I took advantage of everything. I looked for his car key to escape, but eventually I made a different decision.

It was a few hours ago when Julius woke up. His face was in pain, he was about to touch his face because he couldn't see and it was dark when he realized that his hand was tied and even his foot was the same.

"Aira! Aira! it shouted.

"It's good that you're awake, I've been waiting for you to wake up."

"Why can't I see anything? What did you pour on my face? Why the pain?

"Thank you and for everything you did to me and my son, I was still kind to you. If not, you might not only lose your sight, but your whole face will also be eroded."

"You are such a shameless woman! Let me out of here and don't pretend to be nice! He kicked his chair furiously but he heard many footsteps.

Aira! shouted a man. After that, a heavy fist landed on Julius's face.

"You're a man! You will go to jail and you will die in jail! said Sean to Julius.

I quickly hugged Sean and stopped him from hurting Julius again.
