Rianna Mae Santiago

<p>“<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/what-lies-beneath" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong><u><em>What Lies Beneath</em></u></strong></a>” proves to be a teleserye with a multifaceted narrative. It doesn’t rely solely on its seamless and effective suspense and mystery. It also adds realism through the characters’ personal stories and goals—including Beth Sevilla-Mora’s (Charlie Dizon) daughter, Chloe Mora (Jewel Milag). </p><p>More than just a happy child with loving parents, Chloe’s characterization serves as a bright reminder of the hope that youth bring to the generations before and after them. </p><p>Through her dedication to seeking the truth in the stories that intrigue her, these ten moments of Chloe will surely make you proud as a viewer—leaving you hopeful for her continued growth as a truth-seeker. </p><div><br/></div><div><iframe width="1020" height="574" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pb2UX6Z1_7k" title="10 times Jewel Milag amazed us with her acting prowess in What Lies Beneath | Kapamilya Toplist" frameBorder="0" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div><div><br/></div><div><strong>#1: Chloe calls out institutions for protecting abusers</strong> </div><p>In one of the early episodes, Beth is summoned to Principal Liwanag’s office to discuss Chloe’s circulating video, in which she calls out Amurao High for allegedly protecting Councilor Alvarez—a political official accused of sexually harassing a student. </p><p>Finding the situation deeply unfair, Chloe explains in the video how the politician appears to be shielded and treated as a VIP despite his actions toward the student. She also points out how an institution like her school—meant to protect children like her—resorted to silencing the school newspaper merely to preserve its image, instead of standing up for the victim. </p><div><br/></div><div><strong>#2: Chloe stands by the truth—even when only a few dares to speak it </strong></div><p>After the heated confrontation between Beth, Erica (Kaila Estrada), Alice (Janella Salvador), and Mel (Sue Ramirez) over their hunches regarding Louisa’s (Mutya Orquia) murder case—particularly concerning her suspected secret lover—Beth and the others catch Chloe overhearing their conversation.</p><p>Once at home, Chloe quickly apologizes to Beth for eavesdropping but decides she wants to learn more about the case. Beth grows increasingly frustrated, pointing out that Erica was hard-headed for still being obsessed with Louisa’s case after 14 years, even though the whole town of Amurao disagreed with her theories about the killer.</p><p>Hearing this, Chloe listens patiently but ultimately leaves Beth with an enlightening perspective, quoting the famous words attributed to Mahatma Gandhi: “Even if you are a minority of one, the truth is the truth.”</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>#3: Chloe’s commitment to journalism remains unwavering </strong></div><p>During the fallout from Beth, Liezel (Mary Joy Apostol), and Angelo’s (Marlo Mortel) feud—sparked by Beth’s suspicions that they were Bianca’s kidnappers, which spread throughout Amurao—Chloe is scolded by Beth and Ryan (Yves Flores) over another video in which she revived Louisa’s case. </p><p>Beth and Ryan stress that Chloe’s video escalated the allegations against Liezel and Angelo, even though their true involvement wasn’t yet clear. Chloe defends herself, explaining that she only suggested Louisa’s killer might still be alive, with the townspeople forming their own conclusions. </p><p>Ryan lectures her, pointing out that even if it wasn’t her intention, her video contributed to the chaos. He then forbids her from making any videos for the time being. Frustrated, Chloe worries about losing the momentum of her journalistic work. </p><div><br/></div><div><strong>#4: Chloe seeks the truth to preserve her friendship with Joshua </strong></div><p>One night, Ryan is playfully surprised to find Chloe still up in the living room. She speedily asks if Beth knows anything about Liezel’s involvement in Bianca’s disappearance. Ryan says little, still uncertain. </p><p>Overcome with sadness, Chloe explains that Joshua (Lawrence dela Cruz) has been ignoring her because of their parents’ feud. She suspects that Ryan knows more than he’s letting on, emphasizing how much she wants to repair her friendship with Joshua—and why she needs the truth.</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>#5: Chloe experiences true fear when she witnesses the attack on Beth </strong></div><p>In one of the series’ surprising twists, Beth is suddenly attacked at the cemetery while visiting Louisa’s grave. Fortunately, Ryan arrives in time to save her, with Chloe witnessing the horrifying scene. </p><p>Later, after Beth’s hospitalization, Chloe sits in the car with Ryan and reflects on when she first became invested in Louisa’s murder case. </p><p>Back then, she admits, she viewed Beth, Erica, Alice, and Mel’s past as a spectacle to be marvelled at. But after seeing what happened to her mother, Beth, Chloe realizes that some stories are more than words—they are real experiences, filled with real fear. </p><div><br/></div><div><strong>#6: Chloe chooses to defend Joshua  </strong></div><p>With chaos swirling around her—Beth in the hospital, the bitter feud between her and Joshua’s parents, and the fracture in her friendship with Joshua—Chloe freezes at first, stepping away as Joshua is bullied in the restroom.  </p><p>Then, recent memories of Ryan’s advice to reach out to Erica, along with his concern for both Chloe and Beth, snap Chloe into action. Steeling herself, she pushes past hesitation and fear, stepping in to save Joshua. </p><div><br/></div><div><strong>#7: Chloe values her friendship with Joshua above all else </strong></div><p>Moments after rescuing Joshua from the bullies, Chloe speaks up to defend their friendship. Even as Liezel, Angelo, and Ryan arrive—each caught up in the feud—she makes it clear, loudly and confidently, that despite their parents’ falling out, she and Joshua will remain friends no matter what. </p><div><br/></div><div><strong>#8: Chloe insists on taking proper action regarding Beth’s hunches  </strong></div><p>While Beth is finally recovering at home from the attack at the cemetery by an unknown assailant, Chloe insists on uncovering more of Beth’s knowledge about Bianca’s disappearance. She wants to ensure the information goes to the police, rather than putting Beth at further risk. </p><div><br/></div><div><strong>#9: Chloe takes it upon herself to seek help in saving Beth </strong></div><p>As the feud among Beth, Ryan, Angelo, and Liezel intensifies, Beth goes missing for hours, worrying both Ryan and Chloe. Realizing that Liezel was also unaware of Beth’s whereabouts—despite a text sent to Beth posing as Liezel—Chloe, Ryan, and Liezel get into action to search for her. </p><p>Feeling limited by her age and unable to help on a broader scale, Chloe reaches out to Erica, explaining the recent attack on Beth and that Beth knows her assailant’s identity but refuses to tell the police.  </p><p>In the end, Chloe breaks down in tears at the school, overwhelmed with relief as she sees Beth and Ryan arrive safely. </p><div><br/></div><div><strong>#10: Chloe expresses her genuine care for Joshua and Beth </strong></div><p>After the issue between Beth, Ryan, Angelo, and Liezel is finally resolved—with Angelo and Liezel proven innocent of Louisa’s murder—Chloe immediately contacts Joshua to inform him of the outcome. </p><p>Beth catches up with her, asking why Chloe felt the need to call Erica, since Beth didn’t want the situation to escalate without verifying the information she had gathered. With her caring heart, Chloe simply explains that she was afraid her mother might get hurt again. </p><p>Keep an eye out for more of Chloe’s dedicated journalistic side in “<a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/studios/tv/what-lies-beneath" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><u><strong><em>What Lies Beneath</em></strong></u></a>,” weeknights on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Channel sa ALLTV, A2Z, Kapamilya Online Live (KOL) and iWant.</p>
