Simona was certain that Aiken had done something; otherwise, Wendy would never have left so abruptly. Even Wendy's closest friends had no idea where she had gone.
Aiken's cigarette slipped from his fingers and hit the floor when he heard the news.
…
A few days later, Skylar learned about Wendy's departure from Jipsburg. Simona had come to tell her.
Simona had been desperately trying to contact Wendy but to no avail. Then, it dawned on her that she had not spoken to Wendy at all since their last meeting.
She left Wendy a message on WhatsApp, but she did not receive a reply. The calls went unanswered, and the number was disconnected.
It was clear—Wendy no longer wanted any ties to Jipsburg or its people. She was determined to start fresh somewhere far away.
"I only found out yesterday that Aiken has been spending a lot of time with a minor celebrity. They've been getting very close and going on dates. Wendy must have left him because she found out about it," Simona said.
Simona knew Aiken's history—his reckless lifestyle, always surrounded by women. For a time, he'd changed. After developing feelings for Skylar and later getting together with Wendy, he seemed to settle down.
In the past two years, Simona had even entertained the idea that Aiken might marry Wendy. Their relationship appeared stable, on the brink of something permanent.
Although Skylar felt for Wendy, there was little she could do about it.
Simona's eyes welled up with tears. "I don't even know where Wendy went. Aiken had people search for her. We know she left the country, but after that, it's like she vanished. If she doesn't want to be found, she won't let anyone track her down. She's made up her mind to cut ties with all of us."
"I believe she'll come back one day." Skylar knew Wendy well and knew how important her friends were to her. If she had left, it must have been for a reason. When Wendy figured things out, she would return—or at least let them know she was safe.
"I just hope she finds happiness and meets someone who truly cherishes her. Aiken is a scumbag when it comes to relationships. He's let Wendy down," Simona said angrily. Aiken's betrayal made her doubt most men, and she vowed never to fall for their lies again.

Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
