Layla was the one who had asked her out for dinner that night, and it was regarding the matter between Christopher and Yuliana. Although Layla did not say it, Annabelle could discern what it was about, and the former’s implication was for Annabelle to no longer disrupt Christopher’s and Yuliana’s lives.

However, Yuliana was still dazed. She lacked consciousness and could not muster any strength whatsoever. Yuliana could barely open her eyes as her eyelids felt heavy, but she knew that she was in a car, which was moving the whole time.

A few minutes later, the sense of paralysis gradually faded, and Yuliana had somewhat regained consciousness. Then, she realized that her eyes had been blindfolded, and her arms and feet had been tied
