Upon hearing Isabella’s thoughts, the usually good–natured Selena and Evian were outraged.

This time, there wasn’t even time to inform the men at home. She immediately pulled Isabella along and headed straight to the university.
The moment she stepped out of the car at the school gate, she received a call back from Rosalie. This saved them the trouble of having to look for each other
With her phone in hand, Selena was trembling. After all, her obedient and sensible daughter had suddenly become deceitful one day, as if she had turned into a completely different person. Who could possibly accept that?
Evian took the phone and switched it to speaker mode, immediately piquing Isabella’s curiosity as she promptly leaned in.
“Mom, were you looking for me?”
Rosalie thought, “Surprisingly, Rosalie’s voice is so calm, it seems she has been deeply brainwashed.” Naturally, this version of Rosalie was even more unacceptable to her mother and sister.
“Who just answered your phone?” Selena asked outright
“It was a male classmate.”
“Which one?”
“Mom, what are you doing?” Rosalie’s voice held a hint of annoyance, as if she was tired of her mother’s overbearing control. She was completely oblivious to the fact that she had already been exposed by Isabella.
“You…” Selena was practically seething with anger.
“Rosie, where are you now?” Evian asked directly.
“Evie? 1… I’m at the university’s art studio.”
Isabella thought, Huh? Feeling guilty? Lying? Maybe he’s on a date with Dominic, let me see…
Evian spoke in a cold tone. “We’re right outside your school. Since you’re in the art studio, go to Prof. Wilcox’s office within ten minutes. We’ll be waiting for you there!”
“Evie!” Rosalie was immediately flustered. Upon hearing Carmen Wilcox being mentioned, she naturally knew that the secret was out “How… How could you guys come without telling me?”
“Aren’t you guilty of not informing us?” Evian retorted in a stern tone expected of an elder sister. “Be here
in ten minutes.”
After finishing, she ended the call. He then guided Selena into the campus.
Isabella thought, I’m afraid she won’t make it in ten minute

Evian figured that Rosalie was probably on a date, likely somewhere off–campus. The more she thought about it, the more disappointed she felt.
All of a sudden, she heard the trailing Isabella’s thoughts again.
She’s currently tidying up her rental place.
Evian and Selena stopped in their tracks, exchanging looks of disbelief.
It wasn’t hard to imagine that it had to be Dominic’s rented apartment. Typically, at this time. Rosalie would be in her studio, brush in hand and lost in her artwork. She would be so engrossed in her work that she wouldn’t even notice if she had paint smeared on her face.
What is she doing now?
Isabella thought. Is she out of her mind?
Evian and Selena thought, Isn’t it obvious? Love has thoroughly clouded her judgment.
However, in the next moment, they realized how naive they were. The situation that could drive Isabella to declare someone mad was a lot more complicated than that.
Isabella thought, It turns out that Rosalie didn’t just get back together with Dominic, she has even moved out of the dormitory and is cohabitating with Dominic!
The revelation blew everyone’s mind.
Selena’s legs gave out from under her.
“Mom!” Evian exclaimed in shock, quickly rushing to support her mother.
Isabella, who was idly passing the time in the system, saw what was happening and quickly stepped forward to lend a hand.
She thought, Who would have thought that Rosalie’s decision not to study abroad would hit Selena so hard? If she found out that Rosalie did it for that punk and they had reconciled and were even living together, she might just have a fit and end up in the hospital!”
Selena was truly overwhelmed, her voice trembling as he spoke to Evian. “Go… Go to Rosie’s dormitory. and help her move out.”
Isabella thought, Moving out of the dormitory is a good decision. Selena must have sensed that there is something wrong with Rosalie. She needs to take Rosalie home and educate her properly.
Evian was also livid, her face a ghastly pale. She handed her mother over to Isabella, then turned to summon their driver. Together, they headed to Rosalie’s dormitory, pulling all strings and using every method at their disposal. They were determined to bring Rosalie home that day.
Subsequently, Isabella accompanied Selena to meet Carmen, a middle–aged woman.
Out of her appreciation for talent and the status of the Quirk family, Carmen gave special consideration to Rosalie and wanted to advise the latter against her irrational decision. That was why she contacted Selena.
Carmen, a sharp individual herself, began dropping hits to Selena the moment they met, subtly

inquiring if Rosalie was in a relationship.

“Ever since she returned from her last field study, she’s been out of sorts. Lately, she hasn’t been focusing on her paintings, her assignments are always delayed, and I’ve occasionally seen a boy picking her up… Of course, it’s normal for her to be dating at this age, but she can’t let it jeopardize her future. After all, she’s a highly gifted artist.”
Selena’s face was ashen. “You’re right. Rest assured, if this child has strayed, we will certainly guide her back onto the right path.”
Originally, they were waiting for Rosalie to arrive. However, Evian had finished with the paperwork and arrived before Rosalie finally showed up, panting heavily,
“Mom, Evie, Bella, Prof. Wilcox,” Rosalie greeted, her manners intact. However, the expressions on everyone’s faces as they looked at her were far from pleasant, especially those of Selena and Evian.
Pointing to the application form on the table, Selena said, “You’ve already met all the criteria required by your university. You should fill out the application form now.”
Rosalie’s expression shifted slightly before she finally spoke up, “Mom, I’m an adult now. I’m free to choose my own path in life. I don’t want to go.”
Upon hearing such words, Selena felt that she was way passed her boiling point, her anger settling into an eerie calm. “So, you’re willing to give up on the dream you have been chasing for years just because of some punk?“.
Rosalie’s face turned pale. Just as she was about to speak, she heard Isabella’s thoughts. It seems that Selena has already guessed it. As a woman, she naturally knows that the first thing that can shatter a woman’s strong will and cause a drastic change in her temperament in a short period of time is a man’s sweet talk.
The words Rosalie had on the tip of her tongue were swallowed back down.
Evian’s voice rang out. “Rosie, I just visited your dorm. There’s dust everywhere–on the desk… on the bed. Did you really think you could keep this from your family? No wonder you haven’t been home on the weekends for the past three weeks. We thought you were immersed in your work. Rosie, you’ve truly disappointed us.”
Rosalie’s face turned ashen in an instant. Living with a man was already a monumental challenge for a well–behaved girl like her. Now that she had been exposed, she was genuinely frightened to the point of trembling.
“It’s not… I didn’t mean to hide it from you all, it’s just…
Isabella thought, When you two reconciled, Dominic had mentioned that your family would do everything in their power to separate you, hence he advised you to keep it from your family. She is indeed obedient, not even worried about the possibility of encountering someone with ill intentions. Surprisingly, when it came down to choosing between her family of twenty years and her boyfriend of one month, she chose the boyfriend.
Rosalie was left utterly ashamed by Isabella’s mockery, insure of how to react.
Upon hearing this truth, Selena and Evian wore incredibly gloomy expressions,
“So, even after what happened last time, you still havent come to your senses? You still believe we’re making things difficult for you and that young hooliga?” Selena lamented.

No sooner had Rosalie’s voice risen than her mother’s hand was already in the air, poised to strike. If it weren’t for Evian’s intervention, the elegant Selena would have slapped her precious daughter at that very
moment.
“Mom, let’s deal with this matter first. We can deal with Rosie back home.”
Rosalie was taken aback, her eyes instantly welling up with tears. “Mom, are you going to hit me?”
Growing up, even Alexander had been scolded, but never Rosalie. This was her first time seeing her mother so furious at her, and she was completely stunned.
Tears welled up in Selena’s eyes. She truly wanted to knock some sense into her daughter.
Why do I suddenly feel like I don’t recognize this daughter of mine, even after I had struggled so hard to give birth to
hert
Meanwhile, Carmen intervened to ease the tense atmosphere. “Why don’t we let Rosalie submit her application first? Tomorrow is the deadline, any later and it would be too late.”
Quickly, Evian gave Rosalie a nudge. “Go, don’t make Mom angry anymore.”
However, Rosalie merely swayed slightly. She stood firm, refusing to budge.
