Chapter 155 A Matter of Time
After my mind cleared a bit, I said to Myrna, “By the way, Mya. I heard about what happened on your school forum.”
“Your dad also found out, he told you not to worry, he had already gone to find Chief Horton from the police station.”
However, Clifton didn’t know what it meant, he never gave a straight answer, his attitude was ambiguous.
Blake said with a rare seriousness, “No matter what, our family is not so easily bullied. Regardless, we will seek justice for you!”
“…Hmm.” Myrna wanted to say she wasn’t worried, because she had already figured out who was causing trouble behind the scenes, and had someone take care of it.
It was just a matter of time.

Rose Heights, the Stark’s villa.
Lawson’s car arrived at the villa’s entrance.
Stephanie unbuckled her seatbelt, her face flushed with shyness as she softly said, “Lawsy, thank you for bringing me home.”
Lawson was distracted all night. Upon hearing her words, he only responded with a cold “Hmm,” and told her, “Go back and rest early.”
Stephanie remembered that in the past, he would always kiss her uncontrollably when they parted, but this time he didn’t seem to have

that intention at all. On his handsome face, she could vaguely see the impatience he was trying to suppress
Stephanie’s smile became forced.
My mood also sank into a low point.
Quietly clenching her fists, she harbored resentment towards Myrna in her heart. Yet, she managed to squeeze out a docile smile on her face and sweetly said, “Mm, I will. Lawsy, you too, go home and rest early. I’ll call you tonight.”
Unexpectedly, Lawson flatly refused, “It’s too late tonight, so no phone calls. You should take a bath and go to bed early, we’ll talk about it tomorrow.”
Stephanie: “…”
་་
She had clenched her teeth.
He used to call himself every day, no matter how tired or busy he was, even when he was studying in Nemmington. Why couldn’t he call tonight?
Was it because he personally saw Myrna go to a room with an old man tonight?
So he felt upset?
Did you feel uncomfortable?
Lawson saw her delicate and pale, fragile
attitude. In the past, when Stephanie was, as if hurt by her own
heartache.
this, he would only feel
Somehow today, seeing her in this state of seeming so soft and weak, unable to leave him, he inexplicably felt weary.

Chapter 155 A Matter of Time
An image of another girl with a cold icy face involuntarily surfaced in my mind.
In terms of appearance, Stephanie indeed was not as attractive as Myrna.
Myrna had never worn a skirt before, and today was the first time he saw her in one. The red uniform perfectly outlined her tall and slender figure, her ponytail was neat and refreshing, revealing her delicate face. Honestly, he was stunned by her beauty.
If she had done this earlier, he might not have let go so easily.
Stephanie saw him spacing out in front of her, and with that look of being lost in memories, she could easily guess who he was thinking about.
Her face looked as if she had been slapped, making stars flash before
her eyes.

She pinched her fingers, her face turning to the utmost embarrassment, and couldn’t help but exclaim, “Lawsy…”
Lawson snapped back to reality, and upon looking again, he saw his girlfriend standing in front of him, her eyes red with grievance. An inexplicable wave of impatience rose in his heart.
He handed over the bag that he had placed on his car to Stephanie, saying, “Sorry, I was thinking about my thesis and got distracted. Here’s your bag, go home and get some rest early.”
Such a lame excuse, Stephanie didn’t believe it at all, but she didn’t dare to expose it.
Lawson could change his girlfriend.
She, however, had a hard time climbing up the Cooper family.

If she wanted to climb into high society, she had to hold onto the boy
in front of her.
Despite feeling extremely wronged, Heartbroken, and embarrassed, the dared not directly expose his lies, let alone argue with him.
She could only swallow the humiliation in her heart, obediently nodding her head, gently saying, “You must be tired too, go back and rest well.”
