Chapter 275 Chapter 275 Want to Work for Me? The security guard had changed a long tago, but he sawand didn't stop me, either. I felt a little relieved when I thought about how I still looked like a college student after many years.

Everything on campus remained unchanged, even the greenery was the sthroughout the four seasons. The word "WelcFreshmen" was still in the flowerbed. It looked like they would only change it when it was winter. Back then, I met Leonard here as well. He dragged a frayed suitcase behind him, and his clothes had been washed so many times that they were faded. However, he still maintained a confident smile on his face. The thought of Leonard made tears uncontrollably fall from my eyes. So much thad passed, and I had never thought this was how things would end for us.

"Is that really you, Eva? I thought I recognized you from the back." All of a sudden, I heard a voice from behind me. Before I could wipe the tears from my eyes, I saw my former college junior-Glenn Salazar, walk over. "A-Are you getting all sentimental from the old college? Are you okay? Tissues. Where's my pack of tissues?" Glenn rummaged through his pocket for a long time. I quickly waved and pulled out my own tissue. "What are you still doing on campus, Glenn?" "I'm here for my PhD." Glenn scratched his head in embarrassment. "I took my master's degree after I graduated, and my professor toldto go straight for a PhD. I also thought it was a good idea." I watched as Glenn let out an honest and naive chuckle. Before I realized it, I was laughing along as well. There was a twhen I hoped I would have a PhD as well. However, everything changed when I was in my senior year.

"It is a good idea." I saw that Glenn was wearing a basketball jersey, and I asked in a surprised tone, "Are you going to play basketball later?" "Yup. I promised my college juniors that I'd play basketball with them. Don't you remember that I used to be on the basketball team, Eva?" At that moment, both of us looked into each other's eyes, and things suddenly felt a little awkward. Back then, Glenn led our course's basketball team and won the championship in the campus basketball tournament. Then, he confessed toon the spot. He almost got beaten up by Leonard for it, too.

I saw a hint of embarrassment on Glenn's face and hurriedly changed the topic. "Go ahead, then. Don't letkeep you." Chap 275 Want to Work for Me? 2/2 "What about you?" Glenn didn't leave. He seemed worried. "How about you cwithto the basketball stadium? It's quite different there.

I didn't have anything to do, anyway. So, I followed him. The basketball stadium was much bigger, and the seating there was changed at last.

Back then, a lot of people grumbled that the college's management team was stingy. Zestbridge College was such a big institution, but many seats in the basketball stadium were broken. Ttruly did fly. In the blink of an eye, it had been many years since we had all graduated.

Glenn didn't get out on the field. Instead, he started tellingthings about the college. He was a little embarrassed when he talked about the old times.

"Actually, I knew that you had a boyfriend back then. However, I knew you were going to graduate, and that I would miss the chance to confess to you if I waited any longer.

"With that said, I don't regret doing it. Leonard was downright terrible. I saw from the intethat..." Glenn instinctively glanced at my belly.

I lowered my gaze and didn't continue the topic. Back then, Leonard and I were technically m high-profile in college. Things just kept happening after I got married. I surmised that anyone who knew both of us knew that I didn't have it easy with life. What was worse, I lost my baby.

"Actually, it's not scary to have experienced a failed marriage, Eva. What's even scarier is not having the courage to start anew. Half of our classmates have divorced their partners. This is commonplace..." "Aren't you in your first year of your PhD? Have you thought about juggling a job and your studies at the stime?" I changed the topic suddenly and caught Glenn by surprise.

However, I had already made up my mind. Several of the topics the college was covering vel the were celated to cross-province project in one way or another. It'd make my job much easier if I had a PhD student join my studio. I looked at Glenn and raised my eyebrow. "I'm about to start my own business, and I have a studio. Do you want to work for me?"
