Neli took her phone from her bag when she heard someone calling her, she saw his husband's name registered to the caller so she answered it quickly.

"Hello?"

"I'm here down the basement, done with your meeting?"

"Yes, I'm on my way to the basement now."

"Okay, I'll wait for you here."

After the elevator opened to the basement where Caleb was waiting, a person suddenly approached her. She saw the person wearing a black jacket, sunglasses and a mask, her chest pounding and her body trembling because of fear.

She was about to scream when the person in front of her spoke.

"Ma'am, Ma'am, can I talk to you for a second." she heard a female voice say. "I'm Rhea, Rhea Canlas."

Her fear was suddenly replaced by surprise when the woman removed the sunglasses and mask that she was wearing.

Where did I hear her name again?

"I'm Rhea Canlas Ma'am, please help my father!" she said, as if begging.

She then realized who was the woman in front of her, she was the daughter of the man who hit her before.

"What do you mean to help your father?" she wondered. "Don't you know what your father did to me?"

"NELI?!"

She immediately turned to where Caleb's voice was, she saw him running towards them.

"Ma'am, my father will die if you do not help him, please!" the woman suddenly knelt desperately in front of her while crying. "My father didn't want to do that thing to you, please help him."

Caleb immediately hugged her to protect her, but she just smiled at him and left his embrace to approach the woman.

"Neli, it's dangerous!"

"No Sir, I will not harm anyone, please just listen to me." the woman is still begging. "Please, save my father."

She made the woman stand up from her kneeling in front of her.

"Let's go to the car, it's not good if someone will see us here." she said to the woman as she pulled her to Caleb's car.

"Ma'am, please help my father, he didn't want to do that to you." the woman explained when they got into the car. "Someone just threatens him to do that."

"What do you mean?" Caleb wondered.

"Sir, my cousin is the one behind everything that happened." she said. "And now she wants to kill my father because he didn't manage to kill Ma'am Neli."

"Cousin?" she asked.

"Who's that cousin?" Caleb asked.

"It's Sister Hazel." she answered.

Both of them were stunned, as if they both could not believe what they heard.

"She kidnapped me and threatened my father, and ordered him to kill Miss Neli. When Sister Hazel found out that Miss Neli survived, she told my father that she was going to kill me once he told the truth to the police."

The two of them were just listening to the woman.

"My father only has me, and couldn't do anything but to keep quiet so my life will not be in danger. My father knows that he has committed a crime and is willing to go to jail because of what he did, but he only did that because he was worried about me. And now, everyone in the police station was beating him because of my cousin's order, and cannot even walk properly now." she explained while crying. "Please Miss Neli, please help my father."
