Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 608

Chapter 608 We Will Be There

Spencer was invited back as a special guest at the thirtieth-anniversary celebration of the Department of Economics and Management because he was an outstanding alumnus.

Besides outstanding alumni, the Department of Economics and Management also welcomed all its former students on that day.

Since Charlize had only graduated a little over a year ago, and her career was neither bad nor particularly successful, she naturally wasn’t on the list of special guests. Hence, she went back to the school as Spencer’s secretary.

Just a few days ago, her class held a class gathering as part of the college’s anniversary celebration.

While some of them had gone to Alenvista and the north, the majority of them had remained in Jadeborough and the nearby cities after graduation.

Coincidentally, the anniversary celebration fell on a Saturday, so there were quite a few people attending the first class gathering after their graduation.

Juliette wasn’t going to attend the class gathering because she had just gotten married and was on her honeymoon abroad.

Molly had a training trip this week, so she wouldn’t be participating either.

As for Shanny, she simply didn’t want to attend. She planned to stay at home and sleep in.

As a result, no one from their dorm was going to the class gathering.

Since Juliette and the others weren’t attending, Charlize had even less reason to go because she wasn’t close to the other people in her class.

When Marcelo Faria, the class representative, tagged everyone in the group chat, Charlize ignored the messages.

She thought she could avoid the awkwardness of being used as a stepping stone by the others to show off by quietly skipping the first class gathering. However, she didn’t expect to run into Marcelo and the student councilor, Rorion Chevsky, when she followed Spencer back to the campus for the anniversary celebration.

Marcelo and Rorion must have been invited back as well because of their outstanding achievements.

While Spencer was invited on-stage to give his speech, Charlize had to wait for him backstage as she wasn’t assigned a specific seat.

Having known that Marcelo and Rorion would also be there that day, Charlize tried her best to avoid running into them.

She had managed to avoid them a few times before, but she miscalculated her odds this time.

“Charlize?”

Back in their college days, Charlize was secretly voted as the prettiest girl in their class. However, she mostly hung out with her dorm mates and didn’t interact much with her classmates. Moreover, things didn’t go well with her at the beginning of the school year, so she ended up missing out on most of the class activities.

Everyone in the class knew that Charlize was a local from Jadeborough, and she always had luxury cars picking her up during holidays. Some said she came from a wealthy family, while others speculated that she was being financially supported by a sugar daddy.

Only Juliette and a few close friends knew about Charlize’s relationship with Charles. The rest of the class had no idea.

At the beginning of the school year, Charlize had a conflict with one of her classmates, Jacqueline. In truth, it was actually Jacqueline who made things difficult for Charlize.

After the university entrance exam, Charlize had gone on a trip to Epea with her parents. With her skin tanned from the trip, she didn’t look strikingly beautiful when she first started school. Hence, the fair-skinned Jacqueline was voted as the class beauty and even nominated for the campus belle contest.

All of this had nothing to do with Charlize, but someone posted a comment under Jacqueline’s beauty contest post, saying that Jacqueline wasn’t exceptionally attractive and that Charlize was prettier.

Charlize had no idea about that incident until Jacqueline approached her later and angrily scolded her. Only when she returned to the dorm and had Juliette help her inquire about it did she find out about the whole thing.
