Chapter 66
“Class reunion?”
Haylan thought for a moment and said, “Sure, help me sign up. Just send me the address and time.”
After not coming back for eight years, he really missed his old high school friends.
After all, that was a period of his youth.
“Okay.” Evelyn’s eyes lit up and she immediately agreed.
With a class reunion, she would have another chance to be alone with Haylan.
“Oh Mandy, let’s see how you’re going to compete with me for this client.”
At that thought, Evelyn felt even smugger.
Recently, there had been a selection for a managerial role at the bank. Although Mandy was a newcomer, she had previously helped Haylan purchase a fund worth more than 600 thousand dollars. Thus, the manager made an exception and brought her up as a manager candidate, making her Evelyn’s strongest competitor.
That was why Evelyn came to look for Haylan. She would definitely bet promoted to manager if she could make herself Haylan’s exclusive agent.
It would be a huge profit if she could develop a relationship with Haylan.
That was why she was so warm and patient with Haylan’s family.
If it was in the past, she would not have taken half a step into Haylan’s house.
“Did you drive here?” Haylan asked.
“No, why?” Evelyn answered.
She deliberately had not driven over to put on a pitiful act in front of Haylan. She originally wanted to treat Haylan to a meal and watch a movie to increase the time for the two of them to be alone.
However, she did not expect Felicia and Charlie to keep her for a meal at Haylan’s house. Now that she could take a walk with Haylan, how could she say that she was driving?
Chapter 66
“Where do you live?” Haylan asked.
“Hasland, near Winchant Road.”
“Alright, since we’re done eating, I’ll send you back.”
“Huh?”
Evelyn was stunned, her heart filled with disappointment.
She originally thought that Haylan would take her shopping and watch movies, but in the end, Haylan was so eager to send her home?
Haylan had had a crush on her in the past. Why would Haylan not want to develop a relationship with her now?
Haylan was a multi–millionaire now, and his assets were likely to increase in the future. She did not want to miss out on a potential billionaire.
She had to create an opportunity for them to be alone.
Hence, Evelyn smiled. “We’re old classmates after all. Why are you in such a hurry to send me away? I’ve helped you so much. Aren’t you going to invite me to watch a movie?”
Haylan looked at the time and said calmly, “It might be too late. I have an appointment with someone else first.”
He and Yara had agreed to go to Yara’s house to study the formulas for ancient remedies. He would not be able to make it to Yara’s house in time. if he watched a movie with Evelyn.
“Male or female?” Evelyn probed in a hurry.
Haylan smiled and did not answer.
He wasn’t very familiar with Evelyn, so there was no need to answer such a question.
Evelyn knew that she had been rude when she saw Haylan like this. She smiled awkwardly but felt inexplicably nervous.
Haylan took out his car keys and opened the passenger door of the BMW 8 Series like a gentleman. “Get in. I’ll take you home.”
Evelyn’s eyes widened when she saw the car.
It was a BMW 8 Series with top–of–the–line specs worth 300 thousand dollars!
She had liked this car for a long time, but she had never had the money to buy it. She would only be able to afford the down payment even if she worked for four years without eating or drinking.
Yet now, Haylan had actually bought such a luxury car. How suave!
Evelyn suppressed the excitement in her heart and got into the car.
The seats of this expensive car were indeed different!
It was sporty, fashionable, and comfortable.
“If only this was my car,” she thought.
Evelyn was excited, but she pretended to be calm, afraid that Haylan would look down on her. She did not even dare to take out her phone for a photo.
Vroom!
Haylan got into the car and stepped on the accelerator, heading straight for Hasland.
The strong push made Evelyn enjoy the car even more.
About 30 minutes later, Haylan arrived at Winchant Road.
Under Evelyn’s guidance, the car quickly arrived at the neighborhood near Winchant Road.
After Evelyn got out of the car, she smiled at Haylan and said, “Haylan, my parents happened to send back a packet of top–grade coffee from overseas today. Do you want to come up and try it?”
“My parents are out of town. Come to my house for coffee.”
The implication of this sentence was already quite obvious!
There would be a huge “battle” tonight if Haylan went to her house.
She looked at Haylan coquettishly as she spoke.
“There’s no need. I really have an appointment with someone else, so I’ll have to leave you here.”
Haylan smiled and refused. Then, he quickly turned around and left.
“I’m the goddess you used to have a crush on. How can you run away now that I’m ready to sacrifice my body? Blockhead!”

Evelyn stomped her feet in anger as she watched Haylan leave.
“Ms. Irwin, where do you stay?”
Haylan called Yara as he drove. After confirming Yara’s home address, he immediately drove over.
To be honest, Evelyn was indeed very beautiful. Her skin was very fair, and her figure was excellent.
Especially the way Evelyn looked at him just now. It was blatant seduction.
He would not be drinking coffee if he really went to Evelyn’s house just now. He would be drinking her.
Many princesses, celebrities, and supermodels had used this trick on him. when he was overseas.
At that time, he would often run away after sleeping.
Anyway, those people were willing, and he did not need to take responsibility.
Now that he was in the country, if he really slept with Evelyn, with her personality, she would definitely pester him endlessly and cause chaos.
Hence, Haylan chose to retreat in the face of Evelyn’s strong hints.
