To distract herself, Teresa pulled out her phone and noticed a message in a group chat.


    During lunch, she approached Madisyn.


    “Madisyn, our schoolmates are organizing a reunion.


    You’re nning to attend, aren’t you?”


    “No,” Madisyn responded bluntly.


    “How can you miss it? Everyone is excited to see you.


    I’ve already told them you’d be there,” Teresa said.


    “Did I ever confirm I would attend?” Madisyn gave Teresa a look that suggested she thought Teresa was being unreasonable.novelbin


    Teresa pursed her lips.


    “It’s been so long.


    Don’t you want to see how everyone is doing? Juste!”


    “I won’t be going,” Madisyn insisted.


    She had only kept in touch with Susan and Giana from high school; the rest were hardly in her thoughts.


    Plus, Jenna’s presence wouldplicate matters.

    Teresa gritted her teeth.


    She had assured Jenna she would bring Madisyn along.


    Without Madisyn, their ns would hit a snag.


    Teresa and Jenna had both found Madisyn bothersometely, and Teresa was itching to cause her some trouble.


    “Gilbert will be there too,” Teresa said casually, hoping to pique Madisyn’s interest.


    Wasn’t Madisyn into Gilbert?


    Yet, Madisyn didn’t show any interest.


    Teresa was almost seething.


    Fine, she’d find another way to ensure Madisyn made it to that reunion!


    Madisyn, unaffected by Teresa’s efforts, concentrated on her tasks.


    When quitting time arrived, she stood up promptly, eager to leave without dy.


    Teresa watched her with a scoff.


    But soon, she also packed up to leave.


    As Madisyn waited for the elevator, the doors parted, and a tall man emerged.


    His striking, refined appearance and sharply defined features immediately drew everyone’s attention.


    Dane was dressed in an exquisite blue suit that radiated a sense of delicacy and nobility.
