The elevator arrived. O
Keira stepped out of the elevator and headed toward the reserved private room.
Charles swallowed hard, took a few quick steps, and
came up beside her. He still couldn’t believe it and wanted to confirm something, but he didn’t know what
to say.
It was then he realized that when someone was extremely surprised, they actually couldn’t speak.
Charles pointed to his phone, then pointed at Keira.
Keira smiled at him kindly, and then Charles just followed her into the private room, looking so
dumb.
The Horton family had a solid status in Oceanic Emperor Palace Hotel was a part of Horton Grou enterprises, so it was very easy for Jake to book a private room here.
The large private room featured a huge table that could seat twenty to thirty people.

When Keira entered the room, there were already a dozen or so people inside.
They all just graduated this year, so the discussion wasn’t about trivial family matters but about work.
As soon as Keira and Charles entered, the room quieted down momentarily.
The gaze of the male students all fell on Keira.
After all, during their school days, this seemingly unapproachable beauty was so aloof that the only legends in the class were about her, and the only person who could have a few words with her was Jake.
Keira was the goddess in the hearts of many male students.
Seeing Charles entering with Keira, and noticing that his eyes were somewhat glazed over as he dumbly followed her, it wasn’t until she reached a seat that he suddenly realized something and hurriedly pulled out a chair for her. “Please… please have a seat.”
This was his boss, the owner of the company!
Charles’s actions, however, led to a misunderstanding, and everyone started teasing him.

“Charles, what’s your relationship with Keira?”
“How did you come together? Come on, what happened after graduation that we don’t know about?”
Charles panicked and immediately waved his hands. “Don’t talk nonsense!”
Him with Dr. South?!
He wouldn’t!
Leaving these words, Charles took a seat next to Keira.
This was an opportunity to get on good terms with the boss, and he couldn’t let it slip by.
Next to them was a young woman named Erin Davis. She had kept an eye on them since they entered the room. She had always liked Charles during colle They were WhatsApp friends and had been in f touch over the past two months, but nothing wa settled yet.
Now, Charles’s attentive gesture to Keira was more
than Erin could bear.
She spoke in a sarcastic tone. “Keira, I heard from Isla that you hadn’t found a job yet.”

Keira raised an eyebrow and looked at her without saying a word.
Erin continued. “You don’t have to feel embarrassed. There are so many classmates here today. If you haven’t found a job, you can ask everyone to introduce you to one. Oh, our receptionist just quit, and we’re hiring. Do you want to give it a try?”
Keira frowned.
Charles then spoke up. “Don’t be ridiculous. How could D… I mean, how could Keira possibly work as a receptionist!”
Erin scoffed. “What? Do you look down on receptionists? It’s a proper job! And do you think being a receptionist is so easy?”
Charles immediately said, “That’s not what I meant, Keira… the field she studied doesn’t match with being
receptionist!”
“But she hasn’t been able to find a job. Maybe because her grades in her major weren’t that good, right? Keira has one advantage, though; she’s pretty and could be the face of the company. I’m thinking of her best. interests. After all, it’s been more than two months

since graduation. Doesn’t Keira feel the pressure to earn a living?”
Keira frowned and snorted. “I don’t need you to worry
about my affairs.”
She knew that at a class reunion like this, she was
bound to encounter ostracism.
After all, when Isla transferred to her department in the university, she had indeed spurred the other girls to isolate Keira.
But today was Professor Miller’s birthday; he was like a teacher and a father to her, so she had to be here.
Keira carried an air of aloofness. With her words, Erin was speechless and seemed a bit angry as she said condescendingly, “I overstepped. I was just worried that you were struggling to find a job. Since you’re ungrateful, I’ll just drop it!”
A young man also thought Keira’s attitude a bit inappropriate, so he frowned and said, “We’re all classmates here. Maybe the tone of our conversation isn’t the best, but it’s for your own good, Keira. There’s no need to be so dismissive, right?”
Erin pretended to be apologetic. “Don’t say that. I

shouldn’t have brought it up at the reunion. After all, this is Keira’s private matter, and it was indeed embarrassing for her. Keira, if you’re really bothered by this, then I apologize.”
The young man let out a cold laugh. “I don’t understand why we can’t talk about this at a class reunion. Isn’t this a fact? Is it all about saving face without asking for help? Keira, sometimes in life, you shouldn’t care about such ethereal things too much. It’s better to be down-to-earth!”
Keira was perplexed,
Her gaze became even colder. “Sometimes, the best thing to do is not to meddle in others’ business, right?”
“You!”
The young man was angry and pointed at her. He on managed to say one word before Erin grabbed his ar “Okay, okay, let’s not talk about this anymore. Next topic?”
The man scoffed, “She really doesn’t appreciate good intentions!”
Seeing she had the upper hand, Erin laughed and changed the subiect. “Actually talking about iobs.

among us, Charles found the best job! Do you know who he’s working under?”
Everyone became curious all at once. “Who?”
