Hearing that name, Sabrina turned her gaze towards Bettie.

Lance was undoubtedly the man both Bettie and Elora were interested in Caught off

guard, Bettie responded coolly, “Oh really? I don’t give a damn.”

She found herself staring into the distance, her thoughts adrift.

Memories of his gentle and subdued demeanor emerged in her mind.

Some memories were not gradually blurred with time but became more and more

profound.

Arielle chimed in, “It’s been ages since you two seen each other, hasn’t it? I remember the

intense rivalry you had with Elora over him.

It seemed like you and Lance might‘ve had something lasting. But then, after he moved

abroad, I heard Elora followed. She’s the one who set up this reunion, and mentioned

Lance might attend.”

“For real? Are they together now?” another classmate queried.

Arielle shot Bettie a glance, then speculated, “Possibly. They’ve both been abroad for so

long, and Elora’s been single all this while. Maybe she was holding out for Lance. Hosting a

reunion right after returning?

Sounds a bit Like they’re sharing some news.”

In silence, Bettie’s eyes flickered with annoyance, her fingers involuntarily gripping the

fabric of her dress.

Another classmate hinted, “We shouldn’t celebrate too soon. The final laugh might belong

to someone unexpected!”

Bettie’s face clouded over. She retorted sarcastically, “Is finding joy in leftovers I’ve

discarded considered a victory?”

The classmate appeared taken aback, clearly not anticipating such a frank retort from

Bettie.

Suddenly, the room’s door swung open.

A young man, around 25 and towering above 1.8 meters, stood framed in the doorway.

Clad in a chic turtleneck and tailored trousers, he draped his jacket over one arm.

With a handsome face framed by gold-rimmed glasses, he scanned the room. His gaze

briefly settled on Bettie as he inquired, “What were you discussing moments ago?”

Upon spotting the figure by the doorway, Bettie’s eyes widened, and her body tensed up.

For a moment, her thoughts evaporated; he was the only one in her eyes.

Sabrina nudged Bettie gently.

Being astute, she picked up on the unspoken tension between Bettie and Lance.

Bettie snapped back to reality, quickly averting her eyes, her cheeks flushed with

embarrassment.
