Chapter 1679
Reid leaned against the locker, his gaze locking with Garrett and Zavier. “Guys, don’t sweat it. I’ll set her straight.
She won’t be causing any more trouble for Zavier.”
Garrett crossed his arms, a smirk playing on his lips. “Make sure you do. After all, she’s the prom queen. She’s gotta
have some standards.”
With a casual flick of his wrist, Garrett followed Zavier out of the hallway. Once they were at a distance, Garrett’s
curiosity piqued. “I’ve heard you haven’t found the perfect theme song for your game. What exactly are you
looking for?”
Zavier shoved his hands into his pockets, his eyes distant. “Something that fits the game. Something that makes
you want to play as soon as you hear it.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtGarrett thought for a moment. “You’ve been approaching all these famous musicians. Sure, they’re great at music,
but that doesn’t mean they get gaming. Your player base is mostly college students. Why not scout for talent right
here on campus?”
Zavier nodded. “The marketing team’s already on it.”
Garrett playfully punched Zavier’s shoulder. “And here I was, thinking I’d come up with a brilliant idea to earn some
brownie points with you. Seems I’m always a step behind. Bummer.”e2
Zavier didn’t respond, his gaze drifting to the right at the crossroads. An image of Skyler flashed through his mind-
her hands over her eyes, mumbling and scampering away like a startled quail.
A woman who didn’t fight for her betrothed and fled like a scared bird had no place in the cutthroat Rivera family.
Back in the dorm, as soon as Skyler returned, her roommates Amanda and Emma cornered her.
The moment the door shut, they pounced. “Sky, are you out of your mind?”
Skyler rolled her eyes. “What’s it this time?”
Amanda blurted out, “Do you even know who Logan is? Do you have any idea how many girls are after him?”.
Without giving Skyler a chance to respond, Amanda continued, “Let me tell you, Logan was my top pick. He’s so out
of my league I didn’t dare approach him, so I settled for someone else. And even that guy didn’t accept my
gesture. But look at you! You treated a confession from a guy like Logan as if it were trash.”
Skyler shrugged. “I’m not interested in who he is or how many girls like him.”
Amanda threw her hands up. “Sky, are you completely clueless about love?”
Skyler stood firm. “No matter how great he is or how many girls like him, if I don’t like him, that’s that.”
Emma couldn’t stand it any longer. “He’s one of the most popular guys on the basketball team, second only to
Zavier. Sky, how could you turn down such a catch? If I were you, I’d at least give it a shot. If it doesn’t work out,
then break up. You’ve got to play the field while you’re young, or you’ll regret it when you’re older and no one
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmwants to date you.”
Skyler knew their intentions were good. “Guys, we all have our own ways of thinking. If you want to date, go for it.
But please, stop trying to persuade me.”
Skyler’s priorities were different. Love was a luxury she couldn’t afford. Her focus was on earning money to bring
her younger sister here, not on romance.
Amanda softened. “We’re not trying to push you into anything, just reminding you that life is short. You’ve got to
have some fun.”
“I’ll keep that in mind,” Skyler said with a forced smile, grabbing her bag.
“Out again?” they asked in unison.
“Yeah, I’ve got a tutoring gig tonight.”
Amanda sighed. “Be safe. And don’t come back too late.”
Emma’s eyes lit up with excitement. “Mom/just got her bonus and sent me some cash. How about I treat you both
to some barbecue tonight?”
Skyler wanted to decline, to save every penny, but Amanda had already eagerly agreed. With no room to argue,
Skyler accepted, “Alright.”
