Jane walked over to Joe and put her hand around his arm, "Look, Joe, Scarlett cto the class reunion today.
Are you surprised?" Hearing Scarlett's name, Joe automatically looked in the direction which Jane was pointing.
Scarlett was standing at the bar not far away.
She was dressed simply in a white shirt, dark blue slim jeans and black heels.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMany urban white-collar women dressed like this, but Scarlett, who was in these clothes, was more attractive than others.
Joe had courted Scarlett for over a year back then, but of course, she refused him. Then he was in love with Jane, and now they would get married soon. Other people felt nothing strange about them.
But he never owned the first love of his youth, so Scarlett was the apple of his eye.
After all these years, Joe was still a little unwilling to accept it when he saw Scarlett.
Of course, he had heard something about Scarlett after she graduated.
In his opinion, Scarlett was no longer worthy of being his girlfriend now.
He thought Jane was good. She was from a good family and had only ever been in love with him.
"Long tno see, Scarlett." Scarlett glanced at Jane beside him, without answering him directly, "Your husband?" "Yes, are Joe and | brought together by fate? Jane looked like she was asking for a blessing, but everyone knew what she was thinking. After all, they were all classmates.
Scarlett had already embarrassed Martin, so Jane wasn't afraid of Scarlett embarrassing her directly.
Scarlett smiled, "The two of you make a perfect couple." She said and sipped her juice, "I'm going to the washroom." After she had finished her words, Scarlett looked at Jane. After a pause, she said," Will you go with me?" Her attitude was too dry for Jane to accept, "Okay, | need to go to the washroom to refine my make-up." After she had finished her words, Jane looked at Joe, "Joe, talk to the classmates. I'm going to the washroom with Scarlett." Scarlett walked out of the banquet room with her handbag in her hand. Her high heels made a loud noise on the marble floor.

When his company is floated on the stock market, he will have assets of more than two billion dollars. Although he is no match for Mr. Shaw, his achievement at this age is quite remarkable." "Speaking of which, I'm thankful that you didn't say yes to Joe back then." Scarlett smiled but didn't say anything. Jane seemed to think aloud beside Scarlett.
When they reached the washroom, Scarlett didn't go into the toilet cubicle but looked directly at Jane and asked, "Ms. Sanders, there's something | don't understand. | hope you can helpwith this answer." Scarlett's smile broadened as she said this, which frightened Jane.
"We are classmates, and you can ask any questions directly." After hearing what Jane had said, Scarlett raised her eyebrows and asked directly," How did you know about Linley?" After hearing what Scarlette had said, Jane's face changed obviously.
Scarlett had already known the answer in her heart.
At that moment, Jane pretended to be calm and said, "I met her one day and felt something was wrong with her, so | followed her and knew about her." "Really?" Scarlett narrowed her eyes and looked at Jane with a faint smile on her face.
Jane frowned, "Or what? I'm not familiar with Linley." "es." Scarlett answered dryly, and her smile faded gradually.
She turned off the tap, took a tissue, and slowly wiped her hands. She pretended to say casually, "Oh, by the way, who did you go with to Linley that day?" "Linda Eames." After she had finished her words, Jane realized what she had said. She looked at Scarlett, "I thought Linley was very pitiful, so | went to visit her with the vice monitor."
