To the Love of My Life

Chapter 446: Chapter 446: The Golden Boy and the Jade Girl, A Naturally Perfect Pair (6)

“I’m very glad that everyone could take the time to come to this reunion. Before our gathering officially begins, I must apologize. We might have to wait for an old classmate…”

Hillary paused: “Everyone here should know this old classmate, and many may be very familiar with him. He was the top student who entered the Class of 2007 with the highest score in the country, Edric Reat. He originally went to study in Costa Luna but returned to Ciawell recently and might possibly stay in Ciawell for future development.”

At this point in her speech, Hillary’s cellphone rang suddenly in her pocket. She apologized with a smile and answered the call right in front of all their classmates: “Edric, have you arrived? Alright, I’ll come out to meet you…”

With that, Hillary left the private room.

The room became somewhat quiet because of her departure, until someone whispered softly: “Edric Reat, he’s actually back in the country.”

Immediately, someone continued the conversation, and they began to discuss Edric one after another.

“Back then, he was the one who was recommended by our school to study abroad. I always thought he would stay in Costa Luna.”

“It’s been quite a few years since we’ve seen him. He used to be the shining star of our class…”

Ruby Gregory and Madeleine sat together. Madeleine was in a slightly bad mood. Ruby was asking her what was wrong when she suddenly heard the name “Edric Reat.” The fingers holding her glaze cup paused slightly before she fell silent.

Steve Burton sat beside her, looking indifferent amid the endless chatter about Edric. However, the corner of his eyes seemed to gently rest on Ruby’s figure.

As they talked, the room became slightly chaotic, discussing Edric’s appearance, whether he was still as clean and elegant as before. ”

Before anyone could finish speaking, Hillary pushed open the door to the private room: “Alright, everyone is finally here. Edric has arrived.”

Along with Hillary’s words, Ruby saw Edric enter the room. This was the third time she had seen him. He was still dressed in traditional attire, wearing a black suit with a simple white shirt, looking clean and handsome, and the calm air around him was undeniable.

Because he was late, Edric appeared very polite, bowing to everyone and sincerely saying: “I’m sorry for being late. Ciawell has changed a lot these years, and I am unfamiliar with the roads.”

Many of the people in the room were once very close to him, and some remained in contact online throughout the years. So they said half-jokingly: “It’s fine if you’re late, you just have to drink three cups of alcohol as an apology.”

“I don’t mind.” As the words were spoken, someone really poured three glasses of alcohol and placed them on the table.

With a faint smile on his face, Edric didn’t hesitate, walked up to the glasses, and downed all three drinks without any delay, then proceeded to apologize once more to everyone.

They were all old classmates, and they weren’t genuinely trying to make things difficult for each other. It was just a joke. But the fact that he actually drank the alcohol made the atmosphere even more vibrant.

The private room was crowded, and there were limited seats, with only an empty space left beside Steve Burton.
