### Summary
The chapter abruptly interrupts the flashback detailing Rosen Walker's past abuse, leaving her story on a cliffhanger just as a new woman named Emily was introduced. This sudden narrative shift has provoked widespread frustration among readers, who were deeply invested in Rosen's traumatic history and expressed a strong desire to see its conclusion. The story instead pivots to a new flashback centered on the male lead, Ian Connor, beginning to explore his own tragic backstory. This new arc introduces a significant figure from his past, a woman named Ria (or Illyria), sparking immediate speculation about her identity. Readers theorize she may be Ian's first love, the sister of his friend Henry, or the girl from a photograph of people he lost during the Riorston attack. While a few readers appreciate the suspense-building technique, the overwhelming sentiment is one of impatience and disinterest in Ian's past at this critical juncture, with many admitting to skipping his section to wait for the continuation of Rosen's.
