"When will you be home?" Joe clearly wanted to drop the subject of Rosa.
So, Skylar didn't press further either. "About half an hour. Are you home?"
"Yes, just got in. I'll wait for you."
"Okay."
…
Joe stepped out onto the balcony, opened the window, and lit a cigarette. Then, he called Paul.
"Get to the bottom of everything regarding Rosa. Find a chance to meet her and warn her to stay away from Skylar. If I catch her talking nonsense to Skylar again, I won't let it slide."
"Understood," Paul replied with a shiver.
Why couldn't Rosa see the situation? Anyone smart would have taken the compensation and disappeared to live a carefree life. Yet here she was, foolishly walking straight into trouble.
Did Rosa think everyone was blind to her scheming from three years ago? Frankly, those two slaps he gave her earlier weren't nearly enough.
…
Meanwhile, Stephen was frantic when he couldn't contact the man who sold him the charm.
To make matters worse, he discovered that Simona had blocked him again. It seemed she was dead set on breaking up with him!
At that moment, the casino called to demand repayment of his debts.
"Simona, I can't lose you! I realized you're the love of my life! Losing you is like losing my very soul," he declared passionately, drawing the attention of many students.
The crowd started to gossip.
Just then, Simona suddenly appeared behind Stephen.
"When did you become so shameless? Do you think everyone is an idiot? Stop embarrassing yourself here. We broke up ages ago. If you keep causing trouble, I'll have campus security deal with you."
"How can you be so heartless? We loved each other, didn't we? You mean the world to me. Isn't this too cruel?" Stephen raised his voice deliberately, ensuring everyone around could hear.
"Simona, I never agreed to break up with you."
He wanted everyone to witness the scene and forced Simona into a vulnerable position where she had no choice but to give in.

Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
