    Emma, “we’ve ordered a feast, including your share. You’ve got to eat, even if you’re not hungry. Look


    at you, you’re as thin as a rake. Alright, that’s settled then. Catch up on whatever you’re doing, and I’ll


    see you back at the dorm in a bit.” After saying that, without giving. Skyler a chance to speak, Emma


    hung up the phone first.


    Turning her attention back to Zavier, Skyler fixed him with a stern look. “Zavier, since you were already


    here when those three goons cornered me, I think you know who’s gunning for me.”


    “And what if I do?” Zavier retorted, an eyebrow arched in challenge.

    Skyler felt like biting him out of frustration. His girlfriend sent people to hassle her and he had the nerve


    to act so nonchnt.


    “I’ve told you before, this marriage is not something either of us wanted. I won’t stand in the way of you


    finding someone you truly like,” Skyler said, her voiceced with a mix of anger and earnest.


    Zavier remained silent, his expression unreadable.


    “I exined to your girlfriend when she confronted me, assuring her that there’s nothing between us.


    I’m not the other woman. But she’s using these dirty tricks on me now, and I expect you to handle it,


    Zavier. Otherwise, I’ll have no choice but to call the cops and let her face the consequences,” Skyler


    continued, her tone firm.e2


    It was the first time Zavier heard the normally quiet girl say so much. “Who’s my girlfriend? Who told


    you I have one?”All content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Skyler was taken aback. “Isn’t Desiree your girlfriend?”


    He countered her question with another. “Desiree approached you before?”


    “Yes, she’s your girlfriend, isn’t she? She’s got the wrong idea about us. It’s up to you to clear things up


    with her, to stop her from bothering me and disrupting my life,” Skyler insisted, her patience wearing


    thin.


    Zavier’s gaze darkened as he replied tly, “She has never been my girlfriend.”


    “Really?” Skyler’s confusion was evident.


    “Did she tell you that herself?”


    Skyler thought for a moment. “She didn’t say it outright, but everyone at the college seems to think you


    two are an item.”


    With a disdainful snort, Zavier dismissed the notion. “Hmph.”


    “You can’t me people for gossiping. If there’s nothing between you two, you should’ve set the record


    straight. It’s only fair to you and Desiree, rather than giving her false hope and then denying any


    connection,” Skyler said.


    “Are you lecturing me now?”


    “Not at all,” Skyler replied quickly, sensing his irritation.


    Without another word, Zavier changed the subject. “Are we leaving or what?”


    “Of course, we’re leaving.”


    Zavier walked ahead, his long strides putting distance between them in no time. Skyler had to jog to


    keep up with him.


    His car was parked by the curb on Park Road. He got in first, and this time, without prompting, Skyler


    took the passenger seat obediently.


    The distance from here to the school, just one kilometer, didn’t take long at all. In no time, Zavier


    dropped Skyler off at the school gate. After leaving her, Zavier stepped on the gas and drove away.


    Skyler took a deep breath to calm herself before heading toward her dorm.


    After driving away, Zavier dialed a number on his phone. “Why does everyone at college think Desiree


    is my girlfriend?”


    The voice on the other end replied, “She’s been spreading that rumor, and you never denied it. I


    thought you were okay with it.”


    Zavier’s tone was sharp. “She caused trouble for Skyler today.”


    There was a pause before the voice assured him, “Don’t worry. She won’t have the chance to do that


    again.”


    “By tomorrow, I want the whole school to know that Desiree, that troll, has absolutely nothing to do with


    me,” Zavier demanded.


    “OK,” the voice on the other end replied
