Camila’s heart suddenly clenched.
A few seconds later, she exited Twitter.
She patted her cheeks and buried herself in work.
Haylie’s tweet continued to climb in popularity, jumping to the second spot on the trending list.
[Big Discovery! Turns out Haylie and Connor were college mates!]
[What a perfect match!]
[Beauty and brains-that’s them!]
[What are you talking about? Stop shipping them! Our girl is engaged!] [Please, people get divorced these days. Being engaged means nothing!] [Apart from being richer than Mr. Connor, what does he have over him?] [Can’t the onlookers respect a happy couple?]
Fans and neutrals even started arguing, and Haylie’s haters joined in.

Having been in the public eye before, he was no longer easily shaken by such news. Seeing no reaction from him, Alan added, “There’s a trending post about you and Haylie.” Connor’s brow furrowed, “What does it say?”
“Haylie retweeted the official news and tagged you, saying, ‘congratulations,” Alan explained. “Why would that trend?” Connor asked, not seeing anything amiss with the tweet.
