Chapter 1657
Erica, gripping Larkin’s hand tightly, walked straight out of the room,
Rosalynn trailed behind them.
Kelly appeared extremely nervous, seemingly desperate for Rosalynn’s help.
With an icy tone, Rosalynn said, “Your family will come pick you up soon.”
Kelly was scared out of her wits
“Mrs. Silverman, please give me another chance. I swear I won’t mess up again” she pleaded.
“Did you ever think about giving Erica another chance?” Rosalynn retorted coldly
Kelly burst into tears, admitting her faults over and over again.

Ignoring Kelly’s sobbing, she left the room.
Just as Rosalynn was about to leave, a figure emerged from the room across the hall.
Rosalynn was taken aback, “Jacob, what are you doing here?”
Jacob looked like he had seen a ghost, “Is it all a lie?” he asked, looking at Rosalynn.
Rosalynn frowned with worry
Tears welled up in Jacob’s eyes, “Are all the rumors false?”
Rosalynn let out a sigh, “Erica was your girlfriend. You should… know her better than anyone else.”,
Jacob clutched his chest tightly.
He bent over, as if in great pain,
Jacob wasn’t in the best shape that day. Drink
a couple of glasses of wine upset his stomach.
Originally, he was just looking for the restroom. But then, he saw Erica and Larkin rushing into a private room.
Worried about Erica, he hurried over
Little did he know, the conversation he overheard would break his heart
“When did Larkin find out?” Jacob looked up at Rosalynn.
Rosalynn thought for a moment, I’m not sure, but based on his expression in the room, I guess he just found out
about Erica’s situation.”

enough…”

eos were leaked, he was skiing with Wayne and some friends.
One late night, due to no cell reception, he missed several calls from Erica.
When he called her back, Erica seemed upset. But when he asked what happened, she wouldn’t tell him.
Now that he thought about it… Was that the night she almost got raped?
The more Jacob thought about it, the more heartbroken he felt.
“Jacob, that’s all in the past. Erica wouldn’t want you to feel like this, Rosalynn said softly.
“Rosalynn, if I had believed her and protected her back then, would we have ended up like this?” Jacob looked at
Rosalynn, his face pale and streaked with tears, looking utterly pitiful.
Rosalynn didn’t respond, which Jacob took as a yes.
Jacob gave a wry smile, nodded repeatedly, then waved at Rosalynn, “I gotta go.”
