“So what if we had a falling out? It’s not like we can’t live without them.”
But they had cooperated in so many fields for years. Was the entire landscape of Melvion City about to change?
Meanwhile, on the way home, Mr. and Mrs. Scott were lecturing their son.
“Stay away from that Mara from now on. You’re a fool for not seeing through her self-pity act.”
Only Mara, oblivious to the truth upstairs, was still patting herself on the back, thinking her poolside “suicide” attempt was a brilliant move.
Both sets of parents had seen Wesley holding her. They were probably discussing their marriage in the living room right now.
Mara curled her lips into a smile, lost in her pleasant thoughts.
At that moment, Mira was sitting on a bus headed for Solflare Entertainment (formerly Solflare Studios, which had now been repurposed).
She was watching the security footage from the Mercer residence that morning on her phone.
When she saw Mara jump into the water, she couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
Another pity play. She really went all out.
No wonder she had lost in her previous life. What modern young woman would do something like that?
But this time, Mara’s scheme was probably going to fail.
Mira wasn’t surprised by Adrian and Lacey’s actions. After all, they had defended Mara so fiercely in her past life as well.
However, just as Mira had predicted, Mr. and Mrs. Scott were resolute in their rejection of her.
As for Wesley, he was indecisive and easily swayed when it came to matters of the heart. People like him were the easiest to manipulate.
His feelings were being manipulated by Mara, and he had fallen into her trap, but his parents were more forceful. Wesley couldn’t defy their wishes either.
