Letta could only cry as she watched Lemos gaze at her with a hungry look.

"Turns out, besides your scent truly making my body react, your body is truly captivating, even though you're pregnant like this. Alright, let's start with your face. I'm really curious how it feels to touch your skin, which feels so soft to the surface of my skin. I can't wait to do it," Lemos said, making Letta shake her head. Letta felt her body trembling, especially the coldness of the room now piercing her skin, allowing her to feel Lemos starting to reach out his hand and wipe her tears from her face.

"I don't want you to cry again, because I will truly treat you well, even after the bad behavior you just displayed towards me," Lemos said, making Letta sob.

"Please, release Marco first," Letta said, making Lemos shake his head.

"Yes, I will release him after we do something," Lemos said, and the next moment, Letta could see Lemos's hand starting to descend to the nape of her neck, caressing it with his repulsive hand, especially when it began to touch both of Letta's sensitive sides, making Lemos truly gaze at her hungrily, and Letta could only hear Marco's screams, cursing Lemos. Lemos seemed to not want to hear the profanities from her husband, and at that moment, Marco could hear a very loud explosion outside, causing Lemos to stop his movements.

"What was that? Quickly check the situation outside," Lemos said, appearing to panic with the sound. Meanwhile, Marco began to look at him with raised eyebrows.

"Your game is over, Lemos. It's better now that you release me and ask for forgiveness, because I will forgive you. But if you persist, I will truly annihilate you in a way you never imagined before," Marco said, making Lemos growl as he clenched his fists. Lemos then glanced at Letta for a moment.

"Don't worry, our game won't stop here, because your husband has made me angry. I will treat you as I should," Lemos said, threatening Letta. After that, Lemos exited the iron bars. Lemos then approached Marco, picking up the whip that was previously lying on the floor, and once again delivered blow after blow to Marco. This made Letta widen her eyes.

"Don't hit my husband again, you promised, didn't you?" Letta shouted, now seeing Marco completely covered in blood, and Marco remained silent as if it was not something painful to him.

"Marco, please, do something. Don't let that person hurt you," Letta said, making Marco return her gaze, but afterward Marco just smiled in response to Letta's words, and at that moment, Letta could hear the commotion from the dark corridor that couldn't be seen, and it made Lemos stop his movements. Lemos seemed to have begun to realize what was happening with their hiding place, which seemed to have been discovered by Marco's men. "Why are you afraid?" Marco asked, making Lemos fixate on him again.

"You fool. You should have finished me off earlier, but now it's too late, and now, I will be the one to finish you," Marco said, making Lemos look at him with an angry gaze, but with a sense of fear now beginning to creep in.

"Masimo, quickly prepare the car for me. We have to leave this place, and before that, finish off both of them," Lemos said, making Masimo nod, and at that moment, Marco could see Lemos starting to flee through another door in the room. Meanwhile, Masimo began to approach Marco with a sharp object in his hand.

"Don't, don't do it. If you want to follow his orders, you should finish me off first," Letta said, stopping Masimo's movement.

"But unfortunately, I want to finish this man first, then you," Masimo said. After that, he was about to turn back to Marco, but Marco immediately delivered a kick right to Masimo's face, causing Masimo, who wasn't prepared, to stumble backward. At that moment, the door that had enclosed them earlier burst open with force, with Lemos's henchmen starting to fall. There, Marco could see Pedro with several wounds, but still strong enough to hold his ground, fighting the guards in the room.

"I hope you brought enough men to come here," Marco said, making Pedro, who was not looking at his boss, just nod.

"I have mobilized all my forces," pedro said, making Marco smile. And at that moment, Masimo immediately rose and stabbed Marco's chest, making Marco widen his eyes. Pedro, who saw this, immediately rushed towards Masimo and shot him in the back, rendering Masimo powerless. Pedro immediately looked at his boss, who was in a really bad state, especially now with a knife lodged in his body, making Letta scream hysterically.

"Hurry, secure Letta first, don't mind me. I'm fine," Marco said, interrupting Pedro. As his other men began to handle Lemos's henchmen, Pedro walked over to the side of the iron bars, taking off the jacket he had been wearing when he saw Letta covered only by a cloth that concealed her sensitive areas.

"I apologize, ma'am. I am late," Pedro said, making Letta shake her head.

"Free me and save Marco," Letta said, making Pedro rush immediately. Pedro untied Letta, then put the jacket on her to cover her body. Pedro then pulled Letta away, but Letta stopped in her tracks.

"No, no. I want to go by myself. I want to leave with Marco. I want to make sure that Marco also gets out of here safely. So, let's release Marco right now," Letta said, making Pedro shake his head, especially when he saw Marco seemingly losing consciousness due to the blood continuously flowing from his body.

"This is an order, Madam. Look, the Master is in critical condition right now. We need to take him to the hospital immediately, but I have to secure you first," Pedro said, making Letta shake her head.

"I'm fine as long as I can be near Marco. Quickly, right now we have to get closer to Marco and release him," Letta said, finally not listening to Pedro and running straight to Marco. Letta immediately reached out and cupped Marco's blood- smeared face.

"My love, listen to me. Are you still conscious?" Letta asked, making Marco slowly gaze at her.

"Go quickly with Pedro, save yourself, and our baby first. I'll be fine. After that, Pedro will save me," Marco said, making Letta shake her head.

"No, I won't leave this place if I'm not with you," Letta said. After that, Pedro rushed over to them, untying the rope that had been binding Marco. Pedro looked at his men still handling Lemos's people, then at Masimo lying in a pool of blood on the floor.

"We're safe, Sir. We need to get out of here immediately. Let them handle the rest," Pedro said, making Marco nod, and Letta immediately hugged Marco when the rope came off. Marco did the same, but what stood in their way was the knife still perfectly lodged in his chest.

"What should we do about this knife?" Letta asked again.

"Leave it. We need to go straight to the hospital. If the knife is removed from my body, it will only make more blood come out," Marco said, making Letta nod, and immediately rushing to take Marco and Letta to a safe place, especially with Marco's condition that really needed urgent treatment.
