As soon as Louisa (Mutya Orquia) got wind of Edward’s (Joel Molina) crimes, she was nearly overpowered by him, but she struck back by smashing a vase on his head.
Louisa then further confronted him about the harm he caused to the innocent child she saw on his phone, branding him a devil. In a flash, Edward caught up with her, dragging her down the stairs again and nearly knocking her out.
He then mistook Louisa’s unconsciousness, hastily washed the blood on his face, and put on a cap that hid evidence of their altercation. When he returned, Louisa was nowhere to be found inside and was limping around the streets, screaming for help.
Having reached the seaside, Louisa felt hopeless seeing Edward nearing her. As her last resort, she attempted to climb the barrier behind her, but Edward had beat her to it.
Using the last strength she has, Louisa yelled once more, which was fortunately heard by young Erica (Krystal Mejes), Beth (Allyson McBride), Alice (Eliza Borromeo), and Mel (Reich Alim), who immediately came to her aid.
Desperate, Edward slashed Louisa’s neck, and before he fled, the girls even made an effort to stop him, especially Erica, who noticed some of his burnt wounds.
