Jasmine didn't know who Sophie Lucia was.
Nor did she know about the conflicts and entanglements between Lucia and Link.
All she knew was that the effort she put in over the past two weeks had all gone down the drain, her half-written "research paper" had been wasted.
Furthermore, she knew that the other party was carrying out the research, doing the experiments, and producing the results based on the ideas mentioned in Link's new germination method "research paper".
From childhood to adulthood(?), Jasmine had never wanted to accomplish something as much as this time.
Unfortunately, someone else beat her to it, leading her efforts to be in vain.
All she could do was whimper and sigh that life is full of disappointments more often than not.
Jasmine also understood that Link couldn't fix this situation.
So she sniffed, held back her sadness, took back her mobile smart brain from Link, and crouched in a corner to let her emotions settle.
