Chapter 56

Skylar reluctantly responded.

In fact, he and Valerie had not contacted each other for many years. Even they were in same class back

then, there was nothing between the two.

Back then, Valerie was fond of him, and he knew it.

But at that time, he was so focused on his studies that he didn’t want to date anyone.

Moreover, a few of Valerie’s admirers always tried to get back at him in every way possible.

Skylar was tired of dealing with them. So it was even more unlikely that anything would happen between

he and Valerie.

Later, when Skylar saw Valerie, he only felt embarrassed.

However, Skylar’s current identity was more than anyone here could imagine.

He was no longer the poor boy who only knew how to study.

So, at this moment, he smiled and nodded at Valerie politely.

Valerie’s eyes flickered slightly, and she smiled at him as well.

After everyone arrived, Greg ordered the waiter to serve the dishes.

While waiting for the food to be served, Greg took a sip of water and asked, pretending to be casual,

“Skylar, everyone is curious. What did you do after you dropped out of school back then? Some say

you’ve been enlisted whereas others say you’re missing. I wonder what you’re actually doing now.”

The crowd’s expressions changed, and they said inwardly, Greg finally asks.

Valerie had made Greg look bad. Greg could only vent his resentment to Skylar.

Moreover, Skylar was just a poor kid who didn’t even finish high school and become a soldier.

A seemingly offhand question was tantamount to putting Skylar directly in an awkward situation.

For a moment, the crowd looked at Skylar with different expressions.

There were banter, mockery, and sympathy.

In short, in their minds, they all thought Skylar was going to be disgraced.

Skylar was once the teacher’s favorite and the school beauty’s crush. But now, he was humiliated.

This got a lot of people excited as they gloated over Skylar.

Ingram couldn’t help but worry for Skylar.

In this group of students, Greg had the brightest future. On the contrary, Skylar had just returned from the

military.

Zera was the only one who thought that Greg was going to make a fool of himself again.

After all, there was no way Skylar, who could bring his wife and child dine at Jupiter Restaurant in Sunset

Harbor would be worse than Greg.

Skylar knew what Greg had in mind, but he still smiled indifferently. “I’m not discharged from the army. I

came back this time because I have some personal matters to take care of have

and I to go back some time later.”

“So, you’re still a soldier? Ha-ha! Six years of service to your country, regardless of personal gains or

losses. You are really something!”

A male student next to Greg spoke gloomily.

Another male student immediately chimed in, “Did he serve the country. It is a no-war era now. Only

soldiers with high precision technology can be regarded to serve the country. Unlike him, who didn’t even

finish high school. He’s a civilian at best.”

“Skylar, you’ve played your cards right out of the park! It’s a shame I liked you so much back then and

treated you like my Prince Charming. I always imagined that one day, you would come to marry me in an

expensive suit and a luxury car. I didn’t expect you to stay in the army and muddle through.”

A not very good-looking, but heavily made-up woman spoke disdainfully.
