Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed

Chapter 608

"Owen, you vouched for the person, what's your take on this?"

Farrell finished, tossing the question back to him.

Owen Reynolds paused for a moment before speaking up-

"First off, I don't think Roseanne is to blame here."

"It's like a flower blooming in the garden, not beckoning or bothering anyone, yet bees and butterflies swarm to it. Can we then fault the flower?"

"Secondly, the caliber of students at Elite Business University needs a serious upgrade."

"To resort to a brawl over a trivial matter in public, it's a family embarrassment kept hidden, but once it gets out, it's bound to tarnish the reputation of Elite Business University. Hence " "Improving the quality of faculty and students is of the essence. Focus on that!"

"And lastly, and most importantly, I trust Roseanne. She's not the type to take things lightly. With all that's happened, no one's considered her situation or feelings. She's a victim too."

Farrell, knowing Owen Reynolds for so long, was hearing him talk this much in one go for the first time.

"Yes, yes, Miss Cole is beyond reproach. Being beautiful and attracting attention isn't her fault, how could anyone blame her?"

Owen Reynolds's expression softened a bit: "Glad you understand."

Farrell looked at him, somewhat surprised by his defense.

"Ah, our little rascals at Elite Business University, can't keep anything under wraps. Seeing someone as pretty as Roseanne, they all strut like peacocks, vying for attention. Nowadays, society's more open, not like back in our day... I actually think it's good, chase if you like!"
