And this led to utter desolation and misery.Until she met an American girl Mindy (Alexa Ilacad), who not only gave her emotional support amid her ordeals but also became her source of strength with her words of encouragement. Since then, Nena had mustered the courage to wrangle her way out of her predicament. She would seek help from authorities, who would eventually rescue her from Angela’s clutches.Nena now had the confidence to expose what she went through and bring Angela to justice, while Philippine officials assisted her in finding new means of livelihood. She would then become an advocate against human trafficking, helping victims like her attain justice and recover from the horrific experience.Catch &quot;<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/maalaala-mo-kaya" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">MMK</a>&quot; every Saturday on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live (KOL), A2Z and <a href="https://app.iwanttfc.com/dFR6MWHAcVb" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">iWant</a> from 8:30pm to 9:30pm.
