Spencer was invited back as a special guest at the thirtieth-anniversary celebration of the Department
of Economics and Management because he was an outstanding alumnus.
Besides outstanding alumni, the Department of Economics and Management also welcomed all its
former students on that day.
Since Charlize had only graduated a little over a year ago, and her career was neither bad nor
particularly successful, she naturally wasn’t on the list of special guests. Hence, she went back to the
school as Spencer’s secretary.
Just a few days ago, her class held a class gathering as part of the college’s anniversary celebration.
While some of them had gone to Alenvista and the north, the majority of them had remained in
Jadeborough and the nearby cities after graduation.
Coincidentally, the anniversary celebration fell on a Saturday, so there were quite a few people
attending the first class gathering after their graduation.
Juliette wasn’t going to attend the class gathering because she had just gotten married and was on her
honeymoon abroad.
Molly had a training trip this week, so she wouldn’t be participating either.
As for Shanny, she simply didn’t want to attend. She planned to stay at home and sleep in.
As a result, no one from their dorm was going to the class gathering.
Since Juliette and the others weren’t attending, Charlize had even less reason to go because she
wasn’t close to the other people in her class.
When Marcelo Faria, the class representative, tagged everyone in the group chat, Charlize ignored the
messages.
She thought she could avoid the awkwardness of being used as a stepping stone by the others to show
off by quietly skipping the first class gathering. However, she didn’t expect to run into Marcelo and the
student councilor, Rorion Chevsky, when she followed Spencer back to the campus for the anniversary
celebration.
Marcelo and Rorion must have been invited back as well because of their outstanding achievements.
While Spencer was invited on-stage to give his speech, Charlize had to wait for him backstage as she
wasn’t assigned a specific seat.
Having known that Marcelo and Rorion would also be there that day, Charlize tried her best to avoid
running into them.
She had managed to avoid them a few times before, but she miscalculated her odds this time.
“Charlize?”
Back in their college days, Charlize was secretly voted as the prettiest girl in their class. However, she
mostly hung out with her dorm mates and didn’t interact much with her classmates. Moreover, things
didn’t go well with her at the beginning of the school year, so she ended up missing out on most of the
class activities.
Everyone in the class knew that Charlize was a local from Jadeborough, and she always had luxury
cars picking her up during holidays. Some said she came from a wealthy family, while others
speculated that she was being financially supported by a sugar daddy.
Only Juliette and a few close friends knew about Charlize’s relationship with Charles. The rest of the
class had no idea.
At the beginning of the school year, Charlize had a conflict with one of her classmates, Jacqueline. In
truth, it was actually Jacqueline who made things difficult for Charlize.
After the university entrance exam, Charlize had gone on a trip to Epea with her parents. With her skin
tanned from the trip, she didn’t look strikingly beautiful when she first started school. Hence, the fair-
skinned Jacqueline was voted as the class beauty and even nominated for the campus belle contest.
All of this had nothing to do with Charlize, but someone posted a comment under Jacqueline’s beauty
contest post, saying that Jacqueline wasn’t exceptionally attractive and that Charlize was prettier.
Charlize had no idea about that incident until Jacqueline approached her later and angrily scolded her.
Only when she returned to the dorm and had Juliette help her inquire about it did she find out about the
whole thing.
In the end, Jacqueline wasn’t chosen as the campus belle. After that, everyone in the class started
noticing Charlize, possibly due to the comment under Jacqueline’s post.
The drastic change in Charlize’s appearance over the next two months caught everyone’s attention as
she became fair again. Regardless, it was not her skin tone but her facial features that truly attracted
everyone’s attention.
When Charlize returned to school after the National Day holiday, a guy in their class bumped into her
and was surprised to see her there because he thought there was no such beautiful girl in their class.
He even asked if she had entered the wrong classroom.
The conversation made Charlize feel embarrassed and uncomfortable. To make matters worse,
Jacqueline was sitting in the front row. Angered, she sarcastically hinted that Charlize secretly enjoyed
being praised despite acting low-key.
Charlize wasn’t fond of arguments, so she didn’t say anything despite feeling insulted. But later, when
Spencer kept asking Charlize to answer questions in his lecture, Jacqueline went over to Charlize and
made snide remarks to her after the lecture.
Juliette and the others immediately stood up for Charlize, which further escalated the feud between
Charlize and Jacqueline. When Jacqueline continued to treat Charlize badly at the first class outing,
Charlize decided not to participate in any class activities from then on.
The moment Marcelo told the class about the gathering, Jacqueline quickly announced that she would
attend with her fiancé.
Charlize couldn’t be bothered by Jacqueline’s show-off tactics because she was so used to them.
Besides, she didn’t think they were on the same level and didn’t feel the need to maintain connections
with her classmates. In Jadeborough, the connections of the Johnson family were much stronger than
any connections she could make at school.
Therefore, Charlize had no intention of attending the class gathering.
However, she bumped into Marcelo and Rorion, and that was their first time seeing her wearing such a
beautiful dress. They called out somewhat hesitantly, “Charlize Johnson?”
Charlize had already noticed them coming over, and even though she was unwilling, she had to nod to
them in acknowledgment.
Since Marcelo and Rorion were both guys, they felt honored to have such a beautiful classmate.
Seeing that she seemed even more attractive now, they enthusiastically invited her to join the class
gathering that evening.
Charlize couldn’t refuse them. In the end, she reluctantly agreed to it.
At that moment, Spencer came down from the stage, his expression rather cold.
Marcelo and Rorion also noticed Spencer. They recognized him as he had been one of the substitute
lecturers for their class before. Besides, he was a prominent figure at the school. “Spencer?”
Spencer nodded and glanced at Charlize. “What are you talking about?”
Upon hearing Spencer’s question, Marcelo quickly replied, “We are having a class gathering tonight,
Spencer. Charlize will also be there. Since you’ve taught us before, would you like to join us if you have
the time?”
Spencer asked, “Where is it?”
“At Oriental Hotel. It’s not far away from here.”
“All right, we’ll be there.”
Stunned, Charlize stared at Spencer in disbelief, but he acted as if it was no big deal. “Let’s go.”
Charlize pursed her lips but didn’t say anything as her two classmates were present. She could only
follow Spencer and leave first.
As Rorion watched them leave together, he finally seemed to realize something. “Why is Charlize with
Spencer?”
Marcelo also realized what was going on. “Could they be...”
