Chapter 17
Rose had approached Julian and Maverick with a proposal
The deal was: they would pretend to be nice to her to make Hazel jealous, while she would help them win Hazel over.
To convince them this would work, she deliberately discarded love letters they had written for Hazel and forged new ones addressed to herself.
When Hazel discovered these letters signed by julian and Maverick, her shock and distress were exactly what Rose had anticipated.
As predicted, when Hazel confronted them with the letters, she became jealous–just as they wanted.
Afterward, they believed Rose’s plan and decided to reveal everything to Hazel on their first day at Stanford, explaining the entire situation.
But none of them expected Hazel to have already extinguished her feelings and changed her college application.
Rose recalled everything that had happened and laughed maniacally.
“Ha… hahaha…”
If Julian and Maverick hadn’t stopped her now, she might have continued living in her self–created fantasy.
Their cold, merciless eyes made it seem as though their kindness toward ho
had never existed.
Rose instinctively reached out, trying to touch their faces.
Maverick swatted her hand away without hesitation.
“You lied to us and drove Hazel away!”
His tone contained unmistakable danger.
Previously, they hadn’t planned to deal with Rose. But since she was foolish enough to approach them like this, they couldn’t be blamed for what happened next.

Julian’s voice was frigid: “If not for you, Hazel would never have left us!”
“You care so much about your future? Well withdraw your sponsorship, and everything you did to hurt Hazel will be repaid
in full!”
At these words, Rose’s laughter turned to tears.
“Julian, Maverick, stop deceiving yourselves!”
“You had countless opportunities to win Hazel back, but you never took them. You pushed her away with your own hands!”
“I told you, she doesn’t love you. I’m the one who truly loves you–me!”

She screamed desperately, trying to evoke their sympathy.
However, Julian and Maverick’s eyes contained only cold detachment.
“Enough! Hazel must still have feelings for us. Stop lying.”
Maverick insisted. though whether from confidence or desperation wasn’t clear.
Then they left Rose crumpled on the floor and proceeded with their withdrawal from Stanford.
Rose sat in disarray, her heart racing with panic.
Just the withdrawal of sponsorship was enough to destroy her. She had grown accustomed to a luxurious lifestyle and couldn’t bear returning to poverty.
Without money, even survival became difficult.
Rose suddenly regretted her actions.
She quickly got up and took the cards Julian and Maverick had given her to the nearest bank.
“I need to withdraw cash! As much as possible!”
Her fingers trembled as she entered the PIN, taking several attempts to get it right.
Only a large sum of cash could ease her mounting anxiety.
However, the ATM displayed an error: “Your bank card has been frozen.”
She tried a different card, but the result was the same.
