Chapter 1671
Skyler knew he was, but she had to bite her tongue. When they'd gotten out of the car earlier, Zavier had made her
promise not to spill the beans about their complicated connection.
“You know, he's from a whole other world," she said to Vivian. “Don't get your hopes up."
Vivian glanced back wistfully where Zavier had vanished. "Skyler, I'm so jealous of Desiree. To have a guy like
Zavier, who's not only a total stud but also fiercely loyal."
"You'll find your Mr. Right too," Skyler reassured her.
Vivian sighed, "But I'm not as pretty as Desiree, nor do I have her grades or her family's money. I can't compare to
her. How could I ever snag a guy who's even half as great as Zavier?"

boyfriend's worth wasn't in his family's status but in his character and whether their values aligned.
Vivian pouted, "But I still want a guy who's both hot and loaded."e2
Their path was suddenly blocked by a familiar face the same girl who'd been looking for Skyler not long ago.
"Skyler, come with me," she demanded.
Skyler needed no explanation to know that Desiree was behind this, but she had a class to get to. "Sorry. I've got to
get to class."
"If you don't come now, we'll come find you during your class," the girl threatened.
Vivian stepped in, "Hey, I remember you. You're Desiree's friend, right? I'm a friend of hers too. Skyler and I really
need to get to class. Could you please let Desiree know that Skyler will see her after?"
The girl barely gave Vivian a glance, her cold gaze fixed on Skyler. "Don't forget what you've told Desiree before,"
she warned before storming off.
Vivian turned to Skyler, confusion written all over her face. "What's going on with you and Desiree? That girl doesn't
seem too fond of
you."
"Let's just go to class," Skyler said, brushing off the question.
Before Vivian could probe further, her phone rang. She quickly answered, "Desiree, what's up?"
"Let's have lunch together, came Desiree's voice from the other end.
Vivian's response was eager. “Well, absolutely, that sounds great."
After the call, Vivian realized Skyler was already far ahead and hurried to catch up. "Hey, wait up, Skyler!"

The morning lecture was given by a renowned professor, and Skyler was deeply engrossed, so much so that she
didn't notice Desiree's
entrance.
Desiree sat directly behind her, not paying attention to the lecture, her eyes boring into the back of Skyler's head.
When the class finally ended and everyone was leaving, Skyler started to pack up her things, only to be halted by
Desiree's voice.
"Skyler!"
She turned around to meet Desiree's cold stare. Skyler wasn't guilty of anything, and she wasn't afraid. After all,
compared to the elders of the Blue and Rivera families, Desiree wasn't so intimidating. "What's up?"
Desiree smirked, "Thinking of homewrecking at such a young age?"
Skyler was above such accusations. "Desiree, what's between Zavier and me is a matter for our families, not
something we kids can decide. Your issues with Zavier are between the two of you. If you need something or want
his devotion, I suggest you go directly to him and stop bugging me."
If Desiree could speak to Zavier herself, she wouldn't need to chase after Skyler.
