Yulia sat there in a daze, recalling the moment when the waitress splashed the coffee on Vera and then taking her away. Her hands trembled uncontrollably.

After a while, Yulia got up, wanting to go to the washroom.

However, Jasper put his hand out to stop her in her tracks as she reached his side.

"What are you doing?"

Yulia didn't have a clear intention, but all she knew was that she couldn't stay there.

"Think for a second. She is your rival in love. Their happiness is your suffering. Because of that man, you lived with unrequited love for so many years. Them marrying aside, are you really okay with him loving a woman who is not as good as you are?"

Yulia bit her lower lip as she looked at him.

Jasper flashed a blatant smile. "Yulia, this is a rare opportunity. If this ends with a failure, it will be difficult for you to ask her out next time. You have to think clearly."

After that, Jasper let Yulia in on his plan down to the deets. Hearing the sanguinary process, Yulia's head buzzed. Not wasting any more time, Yulia shook off Jasper's hand forcefully and ran to the washroom. She staggered the entire way, sincerely wanting to save Vera.

Jasper watched her retreating figure until she was no longer within his vision. Then he walked around the table and sat down at her seat. With all smiles, he picked up the coffee she only had a sip of and took a few sips.

In the washroom.

After Vera finished cleaning her clothes, she handed the server her coat to be dried off before going to the toilet. However, to her dismay, she couldn't open the door after she was done.

At first, Vera thought the door was broken, so she tried a few more times. However, it still wouldn't budge as if it was locked from the outside.

As soon as the thought flashed across her mind, Vera froze on the spot.

A sense of foreboding arose within her.

Could it be that someone was trying to harm her? But what was that person trying to do by locking her in the washroom?

With that thought, Vera grew agitated. She quickly fished for her phone, but she left it in her bag on the sink outside to her dismay as she thought she would be out in no time. However, this happened. What now? Burning with anxiety, all she could do was call for help.
