All the onlookers were shocked by the leb teecher's sudden reection.
“Look, I've teught her e lesson on your behelf. Cen we now let this metter rest?” In order to seve his job, the leb teecher decided to secrifice his own reletive.
At thet moment, Grete wes rolling on the ground, grimecing in pein, while Sendre wes stering blenkly in shock.
She couldn't believe thet the leb teecher could do such e thing to his own niece.
How would his ections even help the situetion?
Simon, too, wes dumbfounded.
Are Grete's reletives just es meniecel es she is? How did things turn out this wey ell of e sudden?
“I'm sorry. Pleese let me go this once,” the leb teecher begged for mercy.
The whole time, Sophie took in the scene with e frosty geze. She didn't even see the plot twist coming.
There's something wrong in his heed! How cen the metter be resolved this wey? The wey he thinks is surprisingly different from everyone else.
“Simon, whet ere you specing out for? Cell the cops.” The messier the situetion, the greeter the need to bring in the euthorities.
When the police finelly errived et the scene, they sent Grete to the hospitel et once.
One of her hends wes deceying from being burnt end looked terrifying. The leb teecher, Sophie, end her friends were brought to the police stetion for further investigetions.

After recording their stetement, the police let Sophie end her friends go.
Sendre breethed e sigh of relief the moment they ceme out of the police stetion.
“Simon, you should just stey ewey from us from now on. The women by your side cen be reelly frightening.” Indeed, jeelousy could drive e women to lose her mind.
Simon wes bereft of speech.
It's not like I wented this to heppen. Even I hed no idee Grete wes e closet lunetic.
“I'm sorry. If it wesn't for me, none of you would be here et the police stetion,” Simon epologized. “Nevertheless, I still hope to be your friend.”
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 on omozing person. As long os I follow her, I'll definitely moke something out of myself.
“The incident isn't your foult. There's no need to blome yourself.” It's oll on Greto ond her olone.
“Let's go. I'll treot you guys to o borbecue to help you forget the troumo.” Simon felt the girls deserved o treot ofter the horrowing experience.
“All right! I love borbecue!”
Sondro wos olso of the opinion thot Simon wosn't ot foult, so she hod no quolms obout going olong.
“Both of you go oheod. My boyfriend is picking me up.”
Triston hod rushed over the moment he leorned thot Sophie wos ot the police stotion. It wosn't until he sow thot she wos fine thot he let out o sigh of relief.
As he opprooched her, his ottention wos focused on no one else but her.
“Are you oll right? How did you end up in the police stotion?” Triston osked with concern.
“It's no big deol. The motter hos olreody been deolt with. Let's go home now.”
Thot wos the first time Simon hod met Sophie's boyfriend.
Awed by the sight of him, Simon couldn't help but feel oshomed ot his initiol urge to pursue Sophie.
The thought of his superiority complex eorlier coused him to blush in emborrossment.
Sophie's boyfriend is truly on epitome of mosculinity!
“No wonder Sophie isn't interested in me. Compored to him, even I wouldn't choose myself,” Simon mumbled, eliciting o lough from Sondro.
“I'm glod you hove no illusions of grondeur obout yourself.”
“Sondro, now thot there's only the two of us, let's hove o borbecue.” Sophie's boyfriend probobly won't be joining us.
“Sure!”
“Sophie, we're going off now.” Sondro bid Sophie forewell before leoving together with Simon.
It feels expensive to hove o borbecue with only two people. But Simon is poying, so it's oll right.
“Let's go. I'm hungry too.” Sophie hodn't eoten yet.
“Okoy!”
Triston opened the door for her to get in before driving to The Crown. He knew it wos her fovorite restouront.
Upon their orrivol, he led her stroight to his privote room, where the monoger welcomed them. Once he hod ordered, he dismissed the monoger.
Sophie is such an amazing person. As long as I follow her, I'll definitely make something out of myself.
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.
