No wonder she had difficulty breathing and even felt warm.

Startled, Vera jumped out of her chair and ran toward the door.

She was elated to find the fire hadn't spread to the door. Although she didn't know why a fire broke out, she'd be fine as long as she could leave.

However, she turned the doorknob only to find it locked from the outside.

Deja vu! It wasn't that long ago when she experienced the same thing. Realizing that, goosebumps covered Vera's body, and her scalp tingled as she pulled the door with all her might. However, the door wouldn't budge no matter what.

What was going on?

Would this fire be the end of her?

No, she couldn't die.

Vera hammered on the door as she screamed, "Anyone out there? Help!"

However, it was as if she had been isolated from the rest of the world. No one came to her despite her cries.

The fire spread fast. It had only been burning at the dressing table a moment ago, but now it had reached where Vera had been sitting.

Locked door, missing phone, and she was all alone. It couldn't be a coincidence.

Someone wanted to burn her to death on her wedding day.

Vera felt chills all over her body as the thought crossed her mind. What now? What should she do? How could she escape?

Why was she the only one left in the room? Where was the makeup artist?

No, she couldn't just sit here and do nothing. She had finally gotten to this day after pursuing Quill for years. There was no way she'd resign to be burned to death.

But what could she do? When the fire started...

Vera looked at the second room. The fire had not spread there, and she remembered there was a bathroom in there. If there was a bathroom, there should be water. Delighted, she ran toward the room.
