He believed a relationship need not necessarily lead to marriage.
Upon hearing that, Selina concealed a wicked grin within her heart.
âMr.
Castro, I am not a woman to be taken Lightly.
If youâre serious about pursuing me, prove your dedication.
â
Could he truly consider her as his girlfriend?
She wasnât as simple to persuade as a toddler of three years.
âAlright, Iâll prove it to you.
â
Larryâs eyes lingered suggestively over her.
âBut remember, my patience has its limits, so donât make me wait too long.
â
With a spark in her gaze, Selina suppressed her distaste and kissed his cheek.
âConsider this a token of my sincerity.
â
She understood that without some form of concession, he wouldnât leave.
Larry felt content and playfully squeezed her hip, saying, âWait for me.
As Larryâs bulky figure vanished, Selina hastily shut the door and wiped her mouth in distaste.
Everyone seemed to have the power to trample over her!
What was the best way to get rid of this man?
An idea suddenly popped into her head, and she grinned with a hint of frostiness.
The celebration had concluded.
Even though Rosalynn had gained fame among Skrixâs upper class, her life remained unchanged, and not much had shifted for her.
Her life was the same again, with the added company of her family being the only difference.
Noemi stayed in Skrix for a while.
Accompanied by Gail, she slowly warmed up to Rosalynn, moving past their initial estrangement.
Though not fully open-hearted, this shift in Noemiâs attitude brightened Rosalynnâs spirits.
Brian, too, was pleased with his motherâs gradual change.
The only sour note was Lyndonâs extended stay in the Moreno coupleâs place due to business, which Brian found bothersome.
Two weeks later, Karina invited Rosalynn to join her at the Skrix Art Institute to watch the director Brewster Rileyâs casting, and she happily accepted.
