Turning around, Skyler noticed Mandy standing at the door.

After a moment's thought, Skyler signaled the supervisor to let Mandy go up.

If Jasper liked her, she could potentially become someone who could approach him in the future.

Either way, everything rested on how well she seized this opportunity.

The supervisor nodded and made the necessary arrangements.

Mandy made her way to Room 303, not knowing that it was all a test set by her superior.
