A Life Beyond Limits novel Chapter 260

The following day was a Sunday, and the sun hung high in the sky. To Jack's surprise, he had a group of unexpected visitors—Zane, Charlotte, Neil, and Leo. They didn't have classes that morning, so they waited outside Jack's dorm bright and early.

Charlotte called Jack and asked him to come downstairs to meet them. She had his number because he'd given it to her during the Internet Technology and Finance Summit. As for how they knew where he stayed… Jack and Leslie's conflict had spread all over Alnewgo University. It wasn't hard to find out where the former was.

Jack was surprised to see them. The fight had been so intense that he hadn't noticed them hidden in the crowd.

Charlotte crossed her arms and smiled at the flash of surprise on his face. "What's there to be surprised about? Don't forget that we share the same alma mater!"

She winked mischievously at him. "I'm studying Kranish at the foreign language faculty."

Kranish was the third-most used language in the world. Jack had tried his hand at learning it, but the results had been far from satisfactory. He didn't expect Charlotte to be a student of it.

Zane held out a hand to shake his hand. "Hi."

He was still as cold and stoic as before. Leo also held out a hand, but he was much more enthusiastic. "Hi, Jack! I study nearby, too. You left before we got the chance to speak last time; we wouldn't have had any way of reaching you if not for Charlotte having your number."

Neil scratched his head. "Nice to see you again. It's one of life's greatest pleasures to meet a familiar face in an unfamiliar place—look at us, meeting each other here!"

He was being a little dramatic. After all, this was only Jack's second time meeting Zane and Neil. However, this was an indirect way of showing that exceptional social skills could always warm one's heart.
