Viona blinked, feeling a sense of familiarity with the number. Then she recoiled as she remembered that it was Queena's number from before!
"Miss... it seems like someone is following us," the driver said, looking at the front windshield.
"What—" Viona stopped mid-sentence as she saw two black cars speeding toward them. One of the car windows rolled down, and a man shouted loudly.
"VIONAAAA, I LOVE YOUUUU!!! BE MY WIFE, MY DARLING!!!"
"What should I do, Miss? They seem to be your heavy fans," the driver asked, seeking instructions.
Viona felt her heart racing. She took a deep breath, trying to manage her chaotic emotions. "Please, don't stop. Continue driving as usual," Viona instructed the driver with a firm tone.
The driver nodded in understanding and promptly continued driving. Viona looked behind as their car moved away from the two black cars. She felt a mix of emotions about what had just happened.
The strange message from Queena, and the sudden appearance of fanatical fans with their bizarre declarations of love, left her feeling even more uncertain in this situation.
For a moment, they lost the two stalking cars, but because the route the driver took was longer than usual, Viona had to drive for about another 30 minutes.
Viona was shaken by the sudden braking, but she quickly felt relief as her seatbelt protected her. She took a deep breath, trying to calm her racing heartbeat. Her gaze returned to the front, trying to figure out why the driver had taken that abrupt action.
"What's happening?" Viona asked, her voice filled with concern.
The driver stared out the window, biting his lip. "I saw two more black cars behind us. They're still following us."
Viona's breath caught for a moment. The situation was getting more complicated, and something seemed amiss. She felt like she was playing a game of cat and mouse with these stalkers.
"Two more black cars?" Viona repeated, trying to stay composed. "We need to do something."
The driver nodded in agreement. "There's an exit to the left. I'll make a sharp turn and try to lose them."
Viona approved of the plan and watched as the car made a sharp turn onto a smaller, narrower road, attempting to evade the continuing pursuit.
In the darkness of the night, they continued to drive cautiously. Viona kept an eye on her phone, hoping to see if any new messages or information would appear. She was becoming more convinced that there were more secrets to be uncovered, and she was determined to find out the truth, regardless of the risks involved.
Meanwhile, she also felt gratitude towards the driver who was trying to protect her. In the midst of this dire situation, she felt that she wasn't alone in her battle against the looming threat.
Viona turned on her camera, trying to trace the tracks of the stalkers before the driver suddenly slammed on the brakes again. Fortunately, even though she was in the back seat, Viona was accustomed to wearing her seatbelt, so the abrupt stop wasn't too jarring.
"What's happening?" Viona asked, her heart pounding.
"There are some new cars in front of us, Miss," the driver answered, looking around. "Alright, there are 2 cars in front of us and 1 car on the left side. There was 1 car behind us earlier, and another on the right side. What should we do, Miss?" he asked, his forehead furrowed.
"Just... get out of here," Viona ordered, recording the details of the cars.
The Driver nodded, pressing down on the gas pedal as hard as he could and abruptly steering back in the direction they had come from. Viona held onto her seatbelt tightly, surveying her surroundings. Her gaze then fell on the relatively empty toll road.
"Sir, let's enter the toll road!" Viona requested, pointing to the toll booth she had in mind.
Without much ado, The Driver immediately maneuvered the car and headed for the designated road.
Oh no!
With an anxious expression, Viona watched as a bright light shone in their direction. "Watch out!!!" Viona yelled, shutting her eyes tightly.
The sound of a tremendously loud crash was the last thing Viona remembered before her eyes closed forever.

A few hours earlier.
Revan gazed at Queena, who appeared busy typing on her smartphone with an anxious expression. "What can we do, Baby?" Revan asked, wiping his sweat.
"Of course, we eliminate the mastermind behind all of this!" Queena replied coldly.
On her smartphone screen, there was a group chat. Queena ordered them to do whatever it took to make Viona suffer, even if it meant taking her life.
Revan nodded in agreement, although his expression was filled with concern. "But we need to be careful, Queena. If our actions are too harsh, there might be worse consequences for us."
Queena smiled slyly. "No need to worry, Revan. I have a perfect plan to execute this. We'll make them cry over their own defeat."
While Revan still felt hesitant, he chose to trust Queena and her plan. They began to strategize the steps they would take to carry out Queena's orders in the group chat. In the following days, they executed a series of actions intended to harm Viona and disrupt her plans.
However, as time passed, Revan started to feel uneasy about the way they were operating. Queena's cruel attitude and extreme actions began to challenge their own values. Eventually, Revan pulled Queena aside to speak privately.
"Queena, I'm feeling more and more uncomfortable with all of this. We shouldn't be taking this path. We can resolve this issue without harming or endangering others."
Queena stared at Revan sharply, "So, what do you think we can do now, huh? This is the only way!"
Revan let out a surprised sigh, "Wh-what if we get caught, Honey?" Revan asked in a panic.
"Relax. I've been communicating anonymously with them. The payment I sent also came from an untraceable account. Don't worry, Viona won't be able to live peacefully after this," Queena answered with a cruel grin.
"W-what? H-how...?"
"Shut up, Revan! If you're not going to help, keep your mouth shut and watch me in action. I won't let that woman live peacefully after ruining my future! How dare she spread those videos and photos! Because of that damn woman, I lost my status as the number one woman in the world! She will die! She mustn't stay alive! HAHAHAHAHAHA!"
Revan gulped nervously. He began to feel regret for choosing Queena over Viona. After all, Viona was more beautiful and talented than Queena.
Now... Revan just had to make sure he wouldn't get into trouble if something happened. He didn't want to end up in jail if something bad occurred.
