The next day. The Medical College.
This was also Anthea's Alma mater.
The lecture was arranged in the auditorium of the college. After six years, the school had not changed much and had just expanded several teaching buildings.
Anthea was off work this day. Even if she was on duty, she would ask for leave and come to the lecture.
When she was abroad, she indebted to Vincent and his son. Vincent taught her medical knowledge, while Victor, who had been abroad for many years, helped her a lot on daily trifles.
It was not ordinary loneliness being abroad alone.
Having not come back for a long time, Anthea was a little lost. When she found the auditorium and went in, the lecture had begun.
Victor had made great achievements in medicine.
After being recognized as professor, he got more popular among the medical field at home and abroad.
Anthea came in late. Afraid of disturbing the audience in the front, she found a seat in the back and sat down.
Looking around, all she could see was young people full of energy.
Victor would be invited to such lectures many times every year. He was familiar with giving lectures and he was very happy to interact with the students under the stage.
For two whole hours, the lecture was not dull and dry for a second.
After finishing the lecture, Victor bowed and stepped down the stage. Then, the chancellor went on the stage, but he was not to make concluding remarks. Instead, he announced, "My dear students, in order to help you become qualified medical workers in the future, we specially invited an officer to give some extra words. I hope that everyone can learn the hardworking and devoting spirit of officers!"
This was an impromptu part.
Medicine was different from other professions. Medical colleges had always paid great attention to the quality training of students.
This could be observed from the freshmen's military training. All the training officers were true servicemen invited from the army.
But this officer today...
Anthea bit her lip.
The chancellor had already left the stage, and a tall and strong figure holding a microphone stepped on the stage.
Dressed in camouflage clothing and black military boots, with his short black hair, firm eye sights, and tight jaw, he was expressionless.
When Adam was serious, he really looked daunting and formidable.
After he briefly introduced himself, the audience burst into thunderous applause.
"Wow, so handsome!"
"Does such handsome soldier really exist?"
The female students whispered to each other. They thought that he was handsome and manful. He was so cool!
Anthea also looked at the stage. She felt that what they said was correct. He was indeed very handsome. After six years, aging had not left any trace on him. On the contrary, he looked maturer and manlier.
No wonder these little girls were obsessed with him.
Compared to Victor's humorousness, Adam did not speak much. He was just reciting the draft, and most of the time, playing cut-and-dried films with the screen of the auditorium.
At the end, a female student raised her hand and stood up, "General Chin, are you single?"
Adam did not prepare for any interaction with the students, so he just nodded slightly and prepared to step down after giving a salute.
However, the first question aroused many others.
"General Chin, what kind of girl attracts you?"
"General Chin, do you have a girlfriend?"
Adam didn't answer. When he heard the last sentence, he paused.
A deep voice came through the microphone, "Yes, she was once a student of this college."
His dark eyes swept across the crowd.
Sitting at the back, Anthea clenched her fists. Somehow, she felt that he was looking at her.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
