When Annabeth Cates saw that the call was from her middle school classmate, Julie Huckleberry, she immediately picked it up…
Julie was Annabeth’s third-year middle school classmate who sat next to her. Julie was a very kind girl.
Throughout Annabeth’s entire third year in middle school, they were practically inseparable.
“Hey, Annabeth… Are you free the following Monday at eight o’clock in the evening? We’re having a class gathering at a hotpot restaurant in Atlantis Goldfield Plaza…
“Would you like to come? About half of our classmates will be there.
“Don’t you think it’s such a coincidence that most of our classmates are building their careers in Atlantis?” Julie said. She sounded somewhat excited.
After hearing this, Annabeth immediately recalled her schedule before and after eight o’clock in the evening on the following Monday.
Annabeth would be done with work at six o’clock in the evening the following Monday…
Hence, she had time to attend the gathering.
“Sure…” Annabeth said excitedly when she thought of this.
“That’s great. I’ll see you then… As for the precise location, I’ll inform you on WeChat…” Julie replied.
“Okay,” Annabeth said.
“Oh, right. Aren’t you working as Josh Batton’s assistant? So many of our classmates are his fans. When the time comes, can you bring some of his signed pictures or something like that? I’m also his fan too. I really like him a lot…” Julie said.
“We’ll talk about this when the time comes… How have you been?” Annabeth immediately changed the topic.
Josh Batton was extremely busy every day.
How could Annabeth trouble him with these things?
“I’ve been quite alright. How about you?” Julie asked.
“Yeah, pretty alright…” Annabeth said truthfully.
After briefly chatting, Annabeth hung up. After that, she set a reminder on her phone for the class gathering.
Nearby, Josh overheard everything.
After seeing that Annabeth was done with her stuff, Josh looked at her gently. “Do you need my help to sign a few pictures for you? How many do you need, exactly? Ask that person…”
