Chapter 1670

As she swiftly hopped out of the car, Zavier added, “This marriage of ours is bound to be called off sooner or later,

so try not to mention it to anyone."

Skyler nodded, "Don't worry, I won't let anyone at the university find out about us."

Zavier paused, then continued, "Even though we're going to annul it, you better not start dating anyone else before

then. The Rivera family is all about keeping up appearances. I might let it slide, but the Riveras definitely won't let

you off easy."

Skyler replied, "Thanks for the heads-up."

After a moment's thought, Zavier went on, "Remember what I taught you yesterday. If I ever see someone push

you around again and you don't stand up for yourself, don't expect me to step in next time."

Skyler affirmed, "Got it."

Zavier's gaze drifted away as he floored the accelerator, and the car shot off like an arrow, leaving Skyler in the

dust.e2

Skyler collected her thoughts and started walking when she heard someone calling her name from behind,

"Skyler?"

She turned to see her roommate Vivian, "Hey Vivian, good morning."

Since Vivian seldom stayed in the dorm, Skyler didn't know her as well as the other roommates, which made

interactions a bit awkward. But Vivian was the outgoing type. She enthusiastically linked her arm with Skyler's,

"Aren't you a dorm dweller? How come I bump into you so early outside the campus?"

Skyler replied, "I stayed over at a relative's place last night."

"Vivian, didn't you say you had no relatives or connections in the Capital when the school started? How come all of

a sudden you have a relative?"

Skyler was flabbergasted. At the start of the semester, she'd said she had no family in the Capital because Zavier

had essentially kicked her out and was reluctant to acknowledge her as his fiancee.

Skyler's silence led Vivian to jump to conclusions, "Skyler, you couldn't possibly be... you know..."

Skyler asked calmly, "Couldn't possibly be what? Just say what you mean, no need to get worked up."

Vivian looked around to make sure no one was listening and whispered, "You haven't been kept by someone, have

you?"

The insinuation was offensive, not only to Skyler's integrity but also to her dignity. Even the usually composed Skyler

couldn't tolerate such slander, “Vivian, we are roommates. Why do you slander me like this?"

Vivian was quick to clarify, "I hope I'm wrong. I've heard of rich folks preying on college students, and I just didn't

want you to get duped."

Seeing that Vivian wasn't being malicious, Skyler felt a twinge of guilt, "I know what I'm doing, and I'm not that kind

of person."

Vivian nodded, "I know you're not. You work part-time to make ends meet. I'm just worried about you. Take care of

yourself."

Skyler thanked her, and they arrived at the university just in time for class. The entrance was bustling with students.

To Skyler's surprise, Zavier, who had driven off some time ago, was still at the gates. He stood there, hands in his

pockets, leaning against a tree, surrounded by his usual entourage.

When Skyler glanced over, he caught her eye for a fleeting moment before returning to his conversation, and then

they all headed off

campus.

As Skyler moved towards the campus, their paths crossed. Zavier suddenly stopped and called out loudly, "What

are you, a snail?"

Skyler was taken aback. Although he didn't name her directly, she knew he was taunting her. She couldn't possibly

walk as fast as his car could drive, and she had been delayed by running into a classmate.

One of the guys with Zavier chimed in, "Zavier, that's on me. I shouldn't have made you wait."

Zavier said nothing and walked on.

Skyler wanted to hurry back to the dorm to grab her notebook and then head to class. But Vivian held onto Skyler's

arm tightly, "Skyler, oh my gosh, that was Zavier. I feel like he stopped just to talk near us."
