"What happened?" The three looked at her in amazement.
They were not blind and could clearly see that she cared so much about Joshua. She was angry with them over Joshua but to take the initiative to break up with him? They were confused.
"Nothing," Hazel said. "I thought of what Ronald said, it was quite true. Rich families are not so easy to enter, so I broke up with him."
Harry and Rachel looked at Hazel surprisingly. They were curious and stunned. What had Ronald been said to actually persuade Hazel into breaking up with Joshua?
Ronald still felt that something wasn't right. Although he talked with Hazel, he did not think his arguments were strong enough to persuade her to leave Joshua.
He knew Hazel very well, and their talk would have made her sad, but with her loving Joshua so profoundly, she would bargain before giving up.
Was it that Joshua refused her? That was not very likely. He knew Joshua loved her.
