Elena’s POV

"What? How did he escape?" I asked, trying to process the news.

"We're not sure yet. We're still investigating. But we need you to be careful. He may try to come after you."

I felt a surge of fear, and Daniel's eyes widened in concern as he saw the look on my face.

"Okay, thank you for telling me," I said, trying to stay calm.

"We'll send someone over to keep an eye on you. Just stay safe, okay?"

I nodded, even though they couldn't see me. "Okay. Thank you."

I hung up the phone and turned to Daniel. "Alex escaped from prison," I said, my voice shaking.

Daniel's expression changed from romantic to protective in an instant. "What? That's impossible. How did he escape?"

I shook my head. "I don't know. The police are still investigating. But they said he may try to come after me."

Daniel's eyes narrowed. "Don't worry, Elena. I won't let him hurt you. We'll make sure you're safe."
