Chapter 1173 

Natalie let out a sigh. “Alright then.” 

The unpredictability of life was overwhelming. So much had happened in the past few years. Looking back, she realized that college was a simpler time. She had fewer worries and felt 

Carefree 

After graduation, she truly understood the realities of adulthood. It was filled with unavoidable challenges, and there were only a few things she could actually control. 

Fortunately, she had managed to cut off all romantic feelings, sparing herself the pain of love. 

“Maybe I’ll be back soon. I have a feeling I’ll still be here in Jipsburg City in the future. After all, you’re here, and so are my family,” Skylar sald with a smile. 

She felt a twinge of reluctance seeing Natalie look so down. 

Natalie’s eyes brightened instantly. “Then I’ll wait for you.” 

It seemed that Skylar had come to terms with letting go of Joe. Elliott still didn’t have a girlfriend. Whenever they met, he would talk about people he could fall for at first sight and dismiss everyone else. 

It was clear he was talking about Skylar. If things worked out, she would definitely play matchmaker. 

“Have you heard? The CEO of Hawking Technologies is in Jipsburg today. Our project lead is trying to find a way to meet him,” someone said. 

“That guy is a legend. He started from nothing and built that tech company to its current scale in just three years. He’s my idol. If I get the chance, I absolutely have to meet him,” another added. 

“There’s a big charity gala coming up in a few days. He might attend, and I might have a chance to go with our chairman.” 

“If you meet him, let us know if he actually has any superpowers.

“I heard our chairman wants to introduce his daughter to him, but I also heard he has a fiancée. He’s pretty mysterious. There aren’t even any photos of him online. They say he’s around 30–really impressive.” 

Several people had obviously had quite a bit to drink, and the atmosphere of the fondue restaurant made their voices rise unconsciously. The conversation was loud and clear. 

Skylar found herself slightly distracted by their conversation. Sh 

had just read about Hawking Technologies in the news that morning. Now, hearing others talk about the CEO again piqued her curiosity for some reason. 

Natalie noticed that Skylar seemed a bit distracted, so she decided not to interrupt 

“Were you talking about the Hughes family?” Skylar asked, coming back to her senses. 

Natalie smiled and nodded. “Yeah, the Hughes family is quite complicated. I’ve heard a lot about their recent troubles from my parents. Jeremy’s cousins, Walters Hughes and Maurice Hughes, were recently accused of molesting a young girl. But they both deny it, claiming they don’t remember anything. 

“Yet there’s video evidence. They can’t refute that. One of Jeremy’s uncles, Grover Hughes, had been acting erratically. He lost control of his emotions and lashed out at people uncontrollably. The Hughes family has had to pay quite a bit for that. 

“It’s all quite bizarre. The Hughes family is wealthy, so you can demand a little more money. 

“Okay, Jeremy has already transferred me five million dollars,” Skylar replied with a nod.
