Maybe because Jesse was too annoyed by the 32 unread messages, she decided to quit her duty a little bit and chill on the sofa and watch this fascinating guy talking about things she never heard before. She does not even know why she is so interested in that man's words. "Do you believe in Jesus? If so, will you ever betray Jesus as Judah did? well, we know you, sometimes betrayal is inevitable and we are all normal human beings struggling for life." "Hmm, makes sense though", Jesse thought. "We are all human beings, we all make mistakes. We betray our friends, we steal other people's money, and we curse our boss. And guess what, everyone is doing the same to continue their lives. However, Jesus said these are sinful, that dishonesty, stealing, and not blessing others are traits Jesus does not like. So, come and join us, here, under Jesus' name, everything is purified, you don't have to worry about your sin, we will help you to fix your sin. Come and join us, share your stories with fellow brothers and sisters, and live a secret and bright life under Jesus. --- LoveyouasJesus.com." As an atheist, Jesse feels somewhat touched by this man's words and takes down the name and the address of this organization, but she refreshes her mind and decides to go and see this place some days when she is free from work. She reluctantly picked the laptop back on the table and replied to messages waiting for her.

One week later, she was scrolling through phones and watching random news, and suddenly, she saw a familiar name. A piece of news titled "The Newest Fraud for GenZ to Release Burden". In the news, she read that many young victims voluntarily joined that cult group and were involved in telephone scams and physical abuse. "Well, at least those 32 messages saved me," Jesse said.
