Chapter 225
As soon as Hesper said these words, Jessie was the first to burst into laughter. The others who were
just watching the drama for fun and did not know that Michelle and Hesper had never once sat well
together also started laughing.
Michelle felt a little embarrassed. “I only want to know more about you.”
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the private room, and Michelle turned around quickly, trying
to get herself out of this mortifying situation. “Is there someone else who’s coming? I’ll open the door!”
Hesper lowered her head and continued to enjoy the fish, but she then heard a familiar voice. “Excuse
me, is Hesper Rivera here?”
Hesper, at a loss for words, was frozen in her seat. She raised her head in doubt and saw Nathaniel
enter the private room. Her gaze was full of doubts and confusion. “Why are you here?”
Nathaniel walked in with a slight smirk on the corners of his lips. “I just arrived in Genecity today, and
I’m working nearby. I happened to see your car downstairs when I was passing by, and Renee told me
that you were here, so I came to take a look and say hi.”
Nathaniel’s sudden appearance hushed the whole private room. Even people who did not know much
about any designer brands at all could see that Nathaniel’s outfit was worth a lot of money!
Some people won just by exuding their temperament.
Michelle came back in behind the man. She was stunned by Nathaniel’s looks at first glance, and her
cheeks were still a little flushed at the moment. “Are you… Hesper’s friend?”
Hesper glared at Michelle speechlessly. While Jessie, who was sitting right beside her, was desperately
jerking the hem of her clothes.
Jessie’s action reminded Hesper of the occasion that they were in, and Hesper could only give Michelle
a more friendly stare.
Nathaniel took a look at Hesper, took off his suit, and placed it on Hesper’s lap.
Hesper was bewildered by Nathaniel’s action and gazed at him as a bad feeling surged from the
bottom
of her heart.
“I’m Hesper’s fiancé.” Sure enough, Nathaniel smiled and bent down. “Before I came here, Matthew
told. me to tell you that he would come to visit you in a few days. He also asked you to take good care
of yourself and emphasized your preference of running around wearing skirts or dresses even though NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.
we’re now in fall.”
“Nathaniel…” Before Hesper could warn him, Nathaniel and Jessie had exchanged places, and he sat
down right next to Hesper.
The people present did not know that there would be such an interlude, especially Michelle, whose
facial expression looked extremely stiff.
“I didn’t expect Hesper to have such a handsome fiancé. Hesper, I thought you were single, as you’ve
never introduced him to us before this.”
Seeing that Michelle was putting on a fake smile even though she was exasperated deep down,
Hesper felt a little happier.
Nathaniel then fetched a piece of mandarin fish and placed it on Hesper’s plate. “This restaurant is
famous for its fish. You’ll surely love it.”
Jessie covered her mouth and nodded.
I did see that Hesper was only eating the fish just now, but I didn’t expect this attractive man who came
out of nowhere all of a sudden to really know what Hesper likes to eat!’
The two of them ate together, completely ignoring Michelle’s words. Michelle could not help but feel
humiliated this time around.
“My family lives in Emperion, and Hesper came back to Genecity recently because of some work-
related matters, so this class reunion caught us slightly off guard,” Nathaniel explained with a smile.
“Next time, if we have a chance to organize another class reunion, I’ll definitely do a better job and treat
everyone to a
meal.”
