Colet's POV:

I was on the verge of speeding to the location where Jhoanna was taken after Tito Yet sent me the precise address tracked from her phone. If only I could have flown the car, I would have done it.

"Come on! Hurry up! Can't you go any faster?! Piskit!" While beating the steering wheel of the car, I let out a scream.

If I want to catch up with Jhoanna safely, I must hurry, considering the potential danger Migoy poses to her. I hope God forgives me, but if anything happens to Jhoanna because of him, I will not hesitate to kill that guy.

"Fuck you Migoy. 'Pag nakita kita, I will break your face. Don't you dare hurt Jhoanna!"

After driving for 30 minutes, I arrived at a messy road covered in dried leaves, surrounded by trees. Not far away, I noticed an empty, wide lot and a large building with several cars parked outside, including three or four cars that I recognized. One of them belonged to Migoy, whom I knew frequented the company to visit my girlfriend, Jhoanna, and parked his unattractive yet expensive car there.

I parked Jhoanna's car some distance away, grabbed the gun hidden under the seat, which I had never used before, and approached the building cautiously, making sure not to create any noise that could alert anyone inside. To avoid any sudden sounds, I turned off my phone as I got closer to the building.

I intended to enter through the front, but there were two armed men present, so I tried to go around the side instead.

Peeking through the window, I found the room empty and the surroundings silent. With caution, I entered through the window, carefully inspecting the room for any signs of Migoy's men.

Finding none, I remained vigilant in case someone appeared suddenly. As I exited the room and walked down the hallway, it remained deserted and quiet. I closed the door slowly and checked both right and left hallways for any signs of presence before proceeding leftward.

During my stroll down the hallway, I came across a handkerchief that looked familiar. As I picked it up, I realized it belonged to Jhoanna. It's the handkerchief I gave her as a gift.

Eager to find her, I searched for clues, hoping to discover where she might be. Suddenly, a recognizable voice caught my attention.

Someone: "Napakatraydor mo, Migo! I trusted you! But what are you doing now!? There's no chance I'll forgive you kapag nakaalis ako dito!" Upon hearing Jhoanna's scream, I quickly made my way towards the origin of the voice, but the abundance of rooms made it challenging to pinpoint its exact location.

"Jhoanna, your words hold no value! If you refuse to marry me, it's best that you don't go to that girl or anyone else!" Migo angrily shouted.

"No matter what you do to me, you can't change the fact that I love Colet, and I will never develop even a little affection for you! Wala akong pake kahit patayin mo pa ako! Magkamatayan na, basta 'wag lang ikasal sa tulad mo!" Jhoanna shouted at the top of her voice.

I became even more alarmed, prompting me to quickly glance at each door. As I was about to enter another room, someone suddenly called my attention.

Guy: "Hoy! Anong ginagawa mo dito?!" When I turned towards him, I noticed he was holding a gun pointed at me. I scanned my surroundings, searching for a place to run and hide.

Luckily, the room on my left was slightly open. Thinking quickly, I decided to create a distraction and escape. I raised my hands in surrender, but quickly moved towards the open door on my left. However, the sound of a car outside the building distracted the person with the gun, giving me the perfect chance to make a dash for the door and escape.
