As Tessa spoke, she swiftly pulled out a spray bottle and aimed it at Raegan.
A peculiar fragrance filled the air. Raegan instinctively covered her mouth and nose, but it was too late.
Raegan had already inhaled some of it, making her feel dizzy. She leaned against the wall and staggered backward.
Raegan fumbled for the pepper spray in her bag, only to realize it was missing. She panicked, unable to recall where she had put it.

Raegan began to see phantoms in front of her. But she didn’t want to admit defeat. She slammed her bag against Tessa desperately, hoping to get away. But unfortunately, Tessa evaded it effortlessly.
Tessa watched Raegan struggle desperately. She smiled sinisterly.
“Stop struggling. You’re only wasting your energy. Do you think you can escape from me?”
The spray she used was commonly known as the one-minute knockout.
Even a strong man or a fierce beast wouldn’t last for a minute once exposed to it.
Raegan’s attempt to cover her mouth and nose was futile. The drug was so strong that it would still affect her. Tessa was safe only because she wore a specially designed mask.
Tessa leisurely watched Raegan stumble toward the elevator while counting unhurriedly, “Thirty-nine… Thirty-eight… Thirty-seven…”
At this moment, Raegan’s hallucinations intensified. She could barely stand up when she arrived in front of the elevator. She knelt on the floor and reached for the down button.
Raegan heard a ding.
Then, the elevator doors opened. Raegan mustered all her strength and crawled in with difficulty.
She fumbled for her phone in her pocket, wanting to call the emergency hotline. But when she looked at the screen, everything was blurry and shadowy.
Suddenly, a slap sound echoed in the corridor.

It turned out that Raegan slapped herself hard to remain sober. But her hand had weakened. Her slap was more like an attempt to relieve an itch.
But she didn’t want to give up just like that. The next thing she did was bite her wrist so hard that fresh red blood oozed out, feeling her mouth with the taste of blood.
Finally, before the elevator doors slowly closed, she managed to press a number.
The next moment, a slender hand grabbed the elevator, stopping the elevator from closing its doors.
Tessa stood there, still counting down.
“Three… Two… One… I got you!”
Tessa cackled with a harsh and unpleasant laughter.
Before Raegan totally lost consciousness, she shouted, “Tessa!”
