“Caleb, I’ve transferred Colin in a secure location. Would you Like to see him?” Carlos asked in a low voice when I approached.

T nodded. “Yes.”
Carlos then took me to Colin’s prison-a log cabin in the middle of nowhere.
The area was remote and overgrown with weeds. There were no other houses in sight, and Little to no people passed by.

It seemed that Carlos had chosen the perfect place to imprison Colin. Not even the locals could spot this place.
We wove our way through the weeds and approached the Log cabin quietly. Then Carlos pulled the key out of his pocket and unlocked the door. “He’s inside.”
The door swung open and I found Colin lying on the dilapidated bed. He wasn’t moving. If it weren’t for the fact that his eyes were open, I would’ve thought he was dead.
Frowning, I asked Carlos, “Is he seriously injured?”
Carlos shook his head. “No, but I doubt he’s in his right mind. I can’t get him to talk.”
My frown deepened. This was not good news.
I approached Colin slowly and heard him mumbling something under his breath.
I stopped next to the bed and leaned closer to listen to what he was saying. Soon, I could make out a few words.
“My sister should’ve killed that fucking bitch and her child. Debra shouldn’t have had the chance to escape!”

His words struck me dumb. Child? Debra had a child?
Debra’s POV: After Janiya and Caleb left, the drama at the office ended.
Adam drove away the idle employees who had gathered to watch the fun. Then he took me to the dungeon.
“Debra, how did Colin escape?”
Looking at the empty cell that had previously contained Colin, Adam’s suspicious eyes shifted to me.
Although Caleb was able to take care of Janiya’s little farce, I could tell that the seed of suspicion had been planted in Adam’s heart. If I couldn’t quash his doubts and prove my innocence today, it’d be difficult for him to trust me in the future.
Therefore, I met Adam’s suspicious gaze and said frankly, “The power suddenly went out and Colin seized that opportunity to escape. I, along with Caleb and one of the two guards, were all in the dungeon at that time. The three of us can testify to this.”
“Is that so?” Adam questioned, clearly unconvinced. “Yes. If you don’t believe me, you can talk to Caleb and the guard,” I said calmly, trying my best to sound as though I had nothing to hide. “But I don’t think Colin could’ve gotten far since he’s injured. He must’ve had an accomplice. He had someone steal the IOU before, so it’s not impossible that he had someone help him escape.”
Adam still wasn’t convinced. He turned to the guard and barked, “Check the surveillance footage.”
