Chapter 154
I interrupted Anthony's words and said, "Ava, you go to the parking lot with the senior, I'll talk to Dr. Rivers for a moment."
Ava nodded and went to the parking lot with Cole.
Cole glanced at Ava, hesitating to speak. "Ava, are you and Skylar hiding something from me?" He finally blurted out.
Ava felt a bit uneasy, "No, what could we be hiding from you?"
She said.
Cole raised an eyebrow, "You seem to know Luther, and your relationship seems pretty good. I remember in college, you mentioned him many times in front of me." He said.
Ava hadn't expected Cole to remember so much from their college days. She pursed her lips, looking at Cole with a complicated expression. If he could remember so many things, why couldn't he see that she liked him even way back then?
Could it be that when she was in college, her infatuation with him was not that obvious?
Feeling a little disheartened, Ava said, "Look, this is not something I can easily tell you, but please stop mentioning Luther in front of Skylar. She doesn't want to hear anything about him."
Cole was a smart person, and hearing this, he nodded understandingly and didn't say anything more.
Meanwhile, I confirmed that Gerald and Ella would register for marriage tomorrow. I thanked Anthony and then left.
Ava drove me back to Hill Crest One Residence.
Both of us had things on our minds and didn't talk much throughout the ride.
After the car stopped, Ava finally asked me, "Do you think Cole knows that I like him?"
I shook my head, "I'm not sure, but I feel like Cole is not the kind of person who pretends to be oblivious. He probably hasn't realized it yet."
Hearing this, Ava felt even more disheartened and pursed her lips. "Then, will you go see Luther next month?"
My expression changed slightly. "Probably not." I said.
Ava glanced at me. "Are you still bothered by what happened back then?" She asked.
I smiled self-deprecatingly. "Does it mean that if I go, I don't care about what happened back then?" I said.
Ava frowned at my statement. "I didn't mean that. I just feel that Luther doesn't seem like the kind of person who likes to show off. Moreover, considering his status, which person in Mediopolis wouldn't be eager to get close to him? He's organizing an alumni gathering in such a grand manner even before he returns. It doesn't seem like he wants to reconnect with other alumni but rather to meet someone in particular." She said.
My face turned ugly. "This has nothing to do with me." I spoke with a cold tone.
As I spoke, I opened the car door, seemingly intending to get out.
Feeling helpless, Ava grabbed my arm. "Your foot is sprained, don't be so reckless, or else you will just hurt yourself. I won't say anything about him anymore, okay?"
In fact, both of us knew deep down that, given Luther's status, this behavior was obviously driven by a different purpose.
Ava's usually cold face showed a rare look of helplessness.
She got out of the car, assisted me out of the car, and helped me walk into the house.
