“Fancy seeing you here, Ms. Kast.” 

Walter, perched at the podium, raised an eyebrow. “Though, it hasn’t really been that long since we last saw each other, has it?” 

Minnie’s eyes sparkled, a playful light swirling within them, her gaze glistening as if touched by dew. Even then, she pretended to be utterly serious as she replied, “Really? Then why does it feel like an eternity to me?” 

She propped her chin on her hands, elbows resting on the table, gazing at Walter with feigned naivety. 

Walter was taken aback. 

He was no stranger to flirtation due to his family’s status, but Minnie’s boldness and exuberance were something else entirely. 

Driven by curiosity, Walter decided to play along, asking with a hint of mischief, “And how long would that be, in your mind?” 

Their playful banter sent a current of flirtatious energy through the air, almost tangible enough to touch. 

The college students around them, all too familiar with the rollercoaster of romance, let out a collective, knowing chuckle. 

It was this very sound that caught Evangeline’s attention. Standing at the doorway, she leaned in just enough to catch a glimpse of the electric exchange between Minnie and Walter, thanks to the path the students had cleared. 

“Walter, you really are something…” 

Evangeline’s hand balled into a tight fist, the urge to throw a punch at Walter’s smug face overwhelming 

her. 

Especially after this morning, when he had been so attentive, preparing breakfast for her. Upon noticing she had not eaten, he even went out of his way to share a meal at her favorite breakfast joint, but then this came along? 

He had barely turned around before he was flirting with Minnie! 

What did that say about him? It screamed that Walter was the same old guy. 

When Julia was still here, he chased Evangeline away. 

Julia was out of the picture, and Minnie was on the scene, but guess what? He still did the same to Evangeline. 

His every move was just to impress the crowd. 

Out of nowhere, a comforting hand landed softly on Evangeline’s hand. 

“Evie, you okay?” Alex, parked in his wheelchair, caught Evangeline’s scowl and quickly checked in with 

her. 

Evangeline snapped out of it, relieved to see Alex.

She had been so mad that she did not even know how wild she must’ve looked. She might have scared someone off with that face, but if it was Alex, no worries. 

“It’s nothing, Alex. Did you wrap up everything on your end?” 

This was the big academic exchange at Avalon University. Alex, the music department’s newest star professor, was about to show off in a demo class. It was his chance to impress the students and pave way for the school to use his newfound fame for future enrollments.
