Frowning, he searches the villa, checking every corner without success. Exiting, he fixes a heavy gaze on Jessica, demanding, "Where is everyone in this villa?" His voice is thick with suppressed fury, ready to explode.
Jessica blinks, confusion etched on her face. What do you mean? Besides that plastic surgery woman who looked like me, I didn't see anyone else in the villa!" At Jessica's words, Charles' eyes turn icy. "You mean to say that the woman who

Jessica shrugs off his concern. "Yeah, that's why I taught her a lesson!" She sneers, "That cheap woman knew you liked me and got surgery to look like me, thinking she could replace me. She even had the audacity to claim she's your wife. Isn't that ridiculous?" Her laughter only fuels Charles's growing fury.
He suddenly lungs forward, grabbing the collar of the bodyguard who has buried me, "Where did you bury her?"
The bodyguard, terrified, breaks into a cold sweat and stammers, "In the wasteland to the right of the villa." Hearing this, Charles loses all composure and sprints toward the exit.

"Charlie, what are you doing digging this grave?" Jessica demands, her voice rising with irritation. "Do you care about her that much? Didn't you say you only love me?" Charles ignores her, lost in his frenzy, digging even harder until blood began to seep from his hands.

"Don't hurt Jessy's heart because of her!" "Exactly! She only got surgery to try and seduce you. Don't fall for her tricks!" another. adds. "This impudent girl thought she could come here and claim to be Jessy's replacement. She deserves what she got!" Despite their outrage, Charles remains oblivious, completely fixated on his task.
Finally, after what feels like an eternity of digging, I am unearthed.
Charles quickly scoops me up, frantically wiping the blood and dirt from my face. As he recognizes me, his expression shifts from fury to panic. He shouts at the two bodyguards, "Call an ambulance! Now!" One of the bodyguards steps forward cautiously, trying to dissuade him. "Mr. Davis, she's already dead-"
