Destined Entwining: Capturing My Devoted Beau

Chapter 82: Chapter 61: Plucking a White Lotus (Part 3)

Lawrence Winters looked at the newly erected skyscraper, and she was utterly delighted.

She managed to hold back her laughter, but still ”kindly” reminded Molly Zimmerman.

”Tsk tsk, Molly, I told you to clarify again before, but you refused. Look where you are now. Really, not listening to Lawrence Winters has its consequences...”

She turned her head and tilted it towards Molly Zimmerman with a grin.

Molly Zimmerman wasn’t in the mood for the internet and was still angry at Lawrence Winters’s earlier ridicule.

Hearing Lawrence’s teasing, she tried to hold back but eventually couldn’t. She responded somewhat sharply, ”I’ve already clarified it. If you can’t understand, that’s your problem. I really don’t know how you got into Yanda; you have trouble with simple reading comprehension.”

”Oh dear! Molly, heaven and earth can testify! I only meant well!” Lawrence’s slightly exaggerated voice and expression amused Madcap.

Madcap leaned forward to glance at Lawrence and saw her nodding towards her computer screen.

Madcap noticed that Lawrence’s computer screen seemed to be showing a forum from the campus network. She immediately understood and turned to open the campus network forum.

Within a few minutes, she was laughing heartily too.

”...Molly, you really should check out the campus network forum.” Madcap winked at Molly Zimmerman, ”Lawrence wasn’t lying to you; you should have clarified earlier.”

Molly was so angry she could barely maintain her composure. Her hands shook as she opened her computer, saying, ”I’ve already clarified! She still wants me to...”

Before she could finish her sentence, she saw the skyscraper posts.

After reading all of Kenneth Osborne’s posts, Molly felt a chill throughout her body, as if she had lost face for generations.

Her face changed drastically, and with a bang, she slammed her computer shut, kicked away the chair, opened the dormitory door, and rushed out.

Sister Billion, who had been immersed in the world of CEO novels, finally looked up and asked bewilderedly, ”What happened to Molly?”

Madcap shrugged and pointed at her computer, ”See for yourself.”

Sister Billion went over to take a glance and sneered, ”This is nothing... just didn’t land Kenneth Osborne... What’s good about Kenneth Osborne anyway? Besides a pretty face. Once you graduate, you’ll understand. Without family background, a good face, and good grades, it’s useless.”

”There’s a saying, others start where you end, how can you compete with that?” Sister Billion spoke disdainfully, elegantly turning back to her seat.

”Sister Billion, why do you say that... In modern society, everyone is equal; how can there be such a big gap?” Madcap disagreed with Sister Billion’s view while signaling, ”I’m used to your style, but don’t scare our new roommate, Lawrence Winters!”

Lawrence didn’t mind at all, she said smilingly, ”Sister Billion speaks the truth... My uncle loves to feed me this kind of ’poisonous chicken soup’; I’ve been immune to it since childhood.”

”Oh? Really? Such as? What ’poisonous chicken soup’ does your uncle have to offer? Tell us.” Madcap, seeing that Lawrence truly didn’t mind, quickly changed the subject.

Lawrence began to recite her uncle’s ’poisonous chicken soup’ sayings: ”For example, you try your best, but it might still be worse than others just messing around.”

”Failure isn’t scary; what’s scary is you still believe failure is the mother of success.”

”Moreover, you can’t make friends in the group reply to you, but a red envelope can.”

Sister Billion: ”Hahahahaha... Lawrence, your uncle is hilarious! Is he a single CEO? If he is, no matter his age, I’d chase him!”

Lawrence: ”Sorry, my uncle isn’t a single CEO. Too bad, Sister Billion.”

Madcap: ”Hahahahaha... Lawrence speaks so well! I don’t have to worry about you being hit hard and turning into a wilted cabbage!”

The three of them burst into laughter.

But soon after, Madcap’s phone suddenly rang.

She picked up and answered, ”What’s up? Calling this late at night, what’s the matter?”

The person on the other end seemed to say something, and Madcap’s expression changed instantly: ”Really?! Where did she run off to?”

Lawrence looked over, feeling a vague sense of foreboding.

Sure enough, Madcap hung up the phone, pale-faced, and nervously said, ”Molly just went to the 42nd floor to talk to Kenneth Osborne, and then ran off crying after only saying a few words... Her friends can’t find her anywhere and are asking us if we know where she went...”

Lawrence frowned, ”Weren’t her friends following her to the 42nd floor? Why are they asking us about Molly’s whereabouts? We didn’t follow her.”
