Chapter 46

This was starting to get a little tricky. Charlie felt that he needed to talk to Isaac in advance and arrangefor full protection on the day. He couldn’t reveal his identity no matter what. In the middle of the dinner,Loreen started, “Before I came to Aurous Hill, I talked to some of our college mates about it and theysuggested holding a class reunion. What do you think?”

Charlie said immediately, “No thanks, I won’t attend.”

“Why?” Loreen asked curiously. “Although we were not college mates for four years, we spent a yeartogether nonetheless!”

When Charlie was taken in by Lord Wilson, he sent him to Aurous University in order to let him knowClaire in advance. He and Claire spent the final year together in the same class. After graduation, theygot married immediately. He didn’t build a friendship with anyone in the class. Besides, most of themlooked down on him, so he wasn’t interested at all when he heard about the reunion. Claire shared thesame reluctance. She said to Loreen, “Charlie and I will pass on this one. I haven’t been in touch withmost of our classmates after graduation.”

Loreen quickly said, “The main reason for the class reunion this time is because of Douglas Adams.He’s opening a restaurant that will start its operations tomorrow. He’s openly inviting everyone to visithis restaurant and have a gathering together.” She continued, “Don’t you think it’s a little rude to notattend the opening ceremony?”

As soon as her voice halted, their phones beeped simultaneously, it was the notification of an incomingmessage. Immediately afterwards, a lot of conversation boxes popped up on the Screen. They took outtheir phones and looked at it. It was Douglas who had created a chat group and added more than thirtypeople into the group. In the group chat, Douglas posted, “Dear old classmates, my restaurant willofficially open at noon tomorrow, it is located in Aurous Hill. I invite anyone in Aurous Hill to come andenjoy a feast, it can also be our class reunion! It just so happens that Loreen Thomas, one of the two

belles in our class, has come to work in Aurous Hill and she will be attending the reunion too! Guys, Iheard that Loreen is still single and available, all the lonely bachelors in this group had better hurry upand make your move!”

Immediately afterward, endless replies started flooding the group. “Hey, congratulations!”

“Oh, Loreen is here in Aurous Hill? Why haven’t I heard anything about it? I’ll surely be there!”

“What about Claire, the other belle? Will she attend?”

“I heard that Claire married Charlie, the transfer student, right? Also, I heard that Charlie is a live-inson-in- law, is it true?”

“Yeah, I heard about it too, but I’m not sure if it’s true since I haven’t seen them both sincegraduation…”

“I heard that they haven’t consummated their marriage although they are married, I wonder if that’strue…”

Claire frowned at the contents of the text messages and said to Charlie, “Don’t take it seriously.”

Charlie smiled. “It’s okay, what they are talking about is the actual fact anyway, I’m already used to it.”

Loreen quickly replied in the group, “Hey, don’t simply blabber about them! I’m having dinner with thecouple now as we speak! They are very lovely!”

“Wow, it’s Loreen! All the simps quickly gathered around, amazed by Loreen’s message. Someone inthe group tagged Charlie at this moment. It’s Douglas, the group creator. “Charlie, although you spent ashort time with us, I remember we were quite buddies back in college. You and your wife must cometomorrow!”novelbin

To be honest, Charlie had a pretty good impression of Douglas. He was a very nice person who treatedeveryone kindly and never badmouthed others. He was indeed one of the few classmates whom hewas close with. Looking at his sincere invite, Charlie instantly replied, “Okay, we’ll definitely be theretomorrow.”

Douglas quickly replied, “That’s great! It’s going to be an awesome reunion!”
