So Anniza did the most reasonable thing to do. She ran. At napatunayan ni Anniza na ang kasabihang 'you can run, but you can't hide' ay totoo. Dahil kahit saan siya tumakbo, naroon si Dark at naghihintay sa kanya para akitin siya. Maniniwala ba siyang iba si Dark sa manloloko niyang fiancé?

When Attorney Raiven Valiz finds himself in trouble with one of his cases, his life is threatened and a bounty is put on his head.
