“Jane, explain!” Someone like Alora would never be fooled so easily, of course. Her pretty face was icy cold. “Are you saying that you did not actually take some time off because you were tired?”As soon as she said that, Alora picked up her phone and looked at Jane. “It’s fine if you don’t want to tell me. I’ll just call Mr. Stewart.”It was not her best move, but Alora was not thinking straight right now.“Alora, Mr. Stewart won’t care about what happened to me.”Alora blinked. This time,

After Jane finished work, she walked home alone in the night as usual.Susie was not going to go to work and back with her, of course.When Jane returned to the dorm, she was slightly surprised to see the lights on in the living room.

Usually, Susie would be hiding in her room and sleeping by now, but to

Nobody expected Haydn to ask that all of a sudden. Even the air seemed to freeze in that instant. At the very least, all the hairs on Susie's body stood on end out of her sheer nervousness. "Hmm?

We just want you to perform something for us.”“Perform what?”“You’ll know once my old friend

Would it… count?No. No, wait.Erhai. Luka. That gentle girl did not save Jane’s life so that Jane would repay her this way.What about their Erhai dream? She had not fulfilled it yet. She could not… give up!Hence, Jane used the last of her strength to wave her fists, slamming them into the walls of the container as she said, “Save me… Gurgle gurgle…”All of her “save me”s turned into a long stream of bubbles, gurgling from her mouth. “Save… Gurgle gurgle…” Her vision was starting to blur,
