Rage ignited within the lab teacher.
Why is she still not clear-headed even at a time like this?
“Acid... Acid... Do you really like acid that much? Fine, I'll let you try some yourself!” Having said that,
he splashed the acid on Greta.
“Argh!”
Upon contact, Greta let out a painful shriek.
All the onlookers were shocked by the lab teacher's sudden reaction.
“Look, I've taught her a lesson on your behalf. Can we now let this matter rest?” In order to save his
job, the lab teacher decided to sacrifice his own relative.
At that moment, Greta was rolling on the ground, grimacing in pain, while Sandra was staring blankly in
shock.
She couldn't believe that the lab teacher could do such a thing to his own niece.
How would his actions even help the situation?
Simon, too, was dumbfounded.
Are Greta's relatives just as maniacal as she is? How did things turn out this way all of a sudden?
“I'm sorry. Please let me go this once,” the lab teacher begged for mercy.
The whole time, Sophie took in the scene with a frosty gaze. She didn't even see the plot twist coming.
There's something wrong in his head! How can the matter be resolved this way? The way he thinks is
surprisingly different from everyone else.
“Simon, what are you spacing out for? Call the cops.” The messier the situation, the greater the need to
bring in the authorities.
When the police finally arrived at the scene, they sent Greta to the hospital at once.
One of her hands was decaying from being burnt and looked terrifying. The lab teacher, Sophie, and
her friends were brought to the police station for further investigations.
Fortunately, there was a surveillance camera at the scene which allowed the truth to be quickly
revealed.
After recording their statement, the police let Sophie and her friends go.
Sandra breathed a sigh of relief the moment they came out of the police station.
“Simon, you should just stay away from us from now on. The women by your side can be really
frightening.” Indeed, jealousy could drive a woman to lose her mind.
Simon was bereft of speech.
It's not like I wanted this to happen. Even I had no idea Greta was a closet lunatic.
“I'm sorry. If it wasn't for me, none of you would be here at the police station,” Simon apologized.
“Nevertheless, I still hope to be your friend.”
Sophie is such an amazing person. As long as I follow her, I'll definitely make something out of myself.
“The incident isn't your fault. There's no need to blame yourself.” It's all on Greta and her alone.
“Let's go. I'll treat you guys to a barbecue to help you forget the trauma.” Simon felt the girls deserved a
treat after the harrowing experience.
“All right! I love barbecue!”
Sandra was also of the opinion that Simon wasn't at fault, so she had no qualms about going along.
“Both of you go ahead. My boyfriend is picking me up.”
Tristan had rushed over the moment he learned that Sophie was at the police station. It wasn't until he
saw that she was fine that he let out a sigh of relief.
As he approached her, his attention was focused on no one else but her.
“Are you all right? How did you end up in the police station?” Tristan asked with concern.
“It's no big deal. The matter has already been dealt with. Let's go home now.”
That was the first time Simon had met Sophie's boyfriend.
Awed by the sight of him, Simon couldn't help but feel ashamed at his initial urge to pursue Sophie.
The thought of his superiority complex earlier caused him to blush in embarrassment.
Sophie's boyfriend is truly an epitome of masculinity!
“No wonder Sophie isn't interested in me. Compared to him, even I wouldn't choose myself,” Simon
mumbled, eliciting a laugh from Sandra.
“I'm glad you have no illusions of grandeur about yourself.”
“Sandra, now that there's only the two of us, let's have a barbecue.” Sophie's boyfriend probably won't
be joining us.
“Sure!”
“Sophie, we're going off now.” Sandra bid Sophie farewell before leaving together with Simon.
It feels expensive to have a barbecue with only two people. But Simon is paying, so it's all right.
“Let's go. I'm hungry too.” Sophie hadn't eaten yet.
“Okay!”
Tristan opened the door for her to get in before driving to The Crown. He knew it was her favorite
restaurant.
Upon their arrival, he led her straight to his private room, where the manager welcomed them. Once he
had ordered, he dismissed the manager.
“What in the world happened?” Her refusal to tell him anything only served to intensify his worries. He
preferred her to keep him informed.
“A girl has a crush on the guy you met just now. He confessed to me previously, and out of jealous
rage, the girl attempted to throw concentrated sulphuric acid on me,” Sophie related the matter
concisely.
“Concentrated sulphuric acid?” Tristan's expression drastically changed. “He confessed to you?”
Does that kid have a death wish to try to snatch my girl from me?
“She has gotten what she deserves, so there's no need for you to interfere.” It's simply beneath Tristan
to deal with a young woman like that.
“Hmph! How dare she even think about it, let alone actually do it? There's no way I'm going to forgive
her!”
She should rot in prison for trying to harm my woman.
Sophie's lips curled into an approving smile.
“Jeez...” Since I have no way of holding him back from whatever he wants to do, I'll just let him be.
“As for the guy who's trying to steal you from me, I'll think about how to deal with him.” Tristan flashed a
mischievous smile as he was determined not to let his romantic rival off the hook.
How dare he compete with me with such mediocre looks?
Sophie quickly held his hand.
“That's already in the past. He doesn't think anything of me anymore, so leave him alone.”
“Why are you pleading for mercy on his behalf?” There's more to this than it appears.
Sophie was speechless.
“What else should I do? With the number of admirers I have, I can't just sit idly by and watch you turn
into a mass murderer, can I?”
She has a point. There are just too many people infatuated with her.
“What am I going to do? Going forward, I'm not going to let you leave my side so that the whole world
knows you're mine. That way, no one will dare to have any designs on you!”
Just the thought of her legion of admirers from Jipsdale University and the University of Medicine was
enough to make his heart ache. Having so many guys coveting his woman was just a torment to him.
Overwhelmed by his emotion, he settled her down on his lap.
“What do you think?”
His childish expression triggered a smile from her. She leaned in to give him a reassuring kiss.
