A Love Rekindled

Chapter 70

Vienna Winery wasn't far from the hostel, so it didn't take long for us to reach its parking lot.

Then, when I was carefully backing my car, a Maybach suddenly parked into the spot next to mine, and two familiar figures got out of the car. It was Bruce and Cindy.

I should have guessed that Bruce wouldn't let Cindy attend such an event alone. But I still felt bitter looking at them.

I couldn’t help but grip the steering wheel

When Douglas saw this, he asked, "Do you want to go and say hello?”

We were all attending the same party, and not to mention, everyone was close. So, it wasn't right for me to pretend that I didn't see them. I nodded. "Okay."

After getting my approval, Douglas called out to Bruce.

When Bruce heard him, he turned around.

Then, when he saw Douglas and me, he widened his eyes, perhaps feeling a bit shocked.

Meanwhile, Cindy, who was all dressed up for the occasion, reacted differently.

She was stunned as she widened her eyes and parted her lips in astonishment. "Nancy... Are you here to attend the party tonight?” Although Cindy hid her feelings well, there was still a hint of disappointment in her tone.

I nodded and replied, "I'm attending with my class representative.” I thought that I needed to make this clear. Otherwise, Bruce might think Caroline and I were two-faced.

Cindy looked at Douglas before turning to look at me with a smile. "I know. So, you said you had something to do tonight because you're attending the party as Mr. Irvin's partner, right?"

I was unsure if she was genuinely innocent or she was oblivious to the situation Nevertheless, I calmly replied, “It's all thanks to you and Mr. Harold."

Cindy furrowed her eyebrows, puzzled. "Are you trying to tease us? It's clearly your own achievement. Why are you thanking us?”

Not wanting to waste my time talking tocher, I turned to Douglas ~ with a smile and asked, "Didn't you Say that there are a few seniors in the same program also attending this party?" : ite) -

Douglas understood my intentions immediately. Then, he took a look at his watch and answered, “They should be here by now.” After saying that, he turned to Bruce and Cindy and politely said, “Bruce, Ms. Lane, we'll take our leave now."

With that, Douglas and I left before them.

Then, not long after, a sweet voice rang in my ear, “Bruce, did you notice that Nancy looks very different today?"

If Caroline heard that, she would definitely scoff.

After all, her clothes cost almost seven figures. It was expected that I looked different.

Besides, the jealous look on Cindy's face was way too obvious.

At the party, everyone exchanged greetings, and Douglas brought me around to meet many people from the same industry.

Ta my surprise, some seniors knew who I was.

"So, you're Nancy. You're the NN legendary figure who managed tar beat the: two otner elite schools and got f first prize in the National Software Competition." Coritent ~

This happened three to four years ago, but it seemed like it happened yesterday by how they put it. "You have a sharp eye, Douglas. Tell us honestly—did you already have an ulterior motive toward Nancy back in school?" Douglas adjusted his glasses. "Guys,This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .
