Chapter 34 A Sudden Classmate Reunion



Chapter 34 A Sudden Classmate Reunion

But where was Terence?

Where?

Oops.

Sean facepalmed and felt chagrined. Not knowing their time of arrival, he told Terence that he would

come with Carla without telling him when they would arrive.

'How could Terence figure out when we'll arrive, and when to pick us up? How stupid of me!' he began

to blame himself.

"Sean, what's wrong with you? Why did you slap yourself?"

Noticing his unusual behavior, Carla stroked his unruly hair and asked, worrying about her little brother

who seemed to have been caught in a daze.

'Is there something he's hiding from me?' Carla doubted him for a second.

"Eh, it's nothing. I was just a little lightheaded after getting off the train. Carla, do you know where we'd

be staying tonight?" Sean tried shifting the subject immediately, for he couldn't let Carla find out about

his secret for the time being.

Otherwise, with her short temper, things could get really nasty.

If she ever found out her little brother secretly contacting Terence, she would definitely turn around and

go back to BH City at once.

"I've booked a hotel. We'll ride a taxi and head straight there." Carla gave him a suspicious look and

then walked to the side of the road to hail a taxi.

In the light of her search on the Internet, she learned that JA City was very large, much larger than BH

City, and she wasn't familiar with the area at all. So, she had to stoop so low to contact her former

classmate, Violet. They went to the same senior high school. However, they hadn't been in touch for

quite a long time ever since graduation.

When they were still in high school, they got along very well. But when Violet's father transferred his job

to JA City, their family—who were richer than Carla's—moved here and never returned to BH City.

Actually, Carla didn't really want to bother Violet because of her pride, but she would be bringing along

her ten-year-old little brother with her this time.

Therefore, just to be on the safer side, Carla had to ask for help from Violet who was a friend, at least.

"Hello, is this Violet? This is Carla speaking I've arrived in JA City, but it's too late now, so I'll be staying

in a hotel nearby. I'll just come and visit you tomorrow. How's that?"

Speaking on the phone, Carla asked Sean to get in the taxi. She then followed him soon after.

"Have you arrived yet, Carla? Great. We'll be having a class reunion tonight, and all of our classmates

who are living in JA City will join in. I thought you wouldn't catch up with us. I'm glad you're here now.

Please make sure to come to the party," Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

Violet said excitedly on the phone.

"... What? A class reunion? I don't think I can join you guys because my little brother is with me.

Besides, we're still tired after traveling for a whole day," Carla declined, sitting in the taxi.

These classmates who were in JA City now were far more successful than she was. Although they

used to get along very well, they hadn't seen each other for years, so Carla opted not to go to the party

only to embarrass herself.

"Come on, Carla. It's a rare opportunity for you to come to JA City, and it just so happens that we also

have a class reunion tonight. This is a good chance for all of us to catch up! You'll regret it if you don't

come.

As for your little brother, that would be a piece of cake. You can take him with you. We have made

reservation in the Rose Club, and that is one of the most luxurious clubs in JA City. It has every

conceivable amenity for guests to have fun and have a break. So, if your little brother is tired, he could

just take a break in the next room without disturbing us," said Violet.

Listening to Violet, Carla then glanced at Sean sitting next to her. She remained silent and was

hesitating a little.

"Okay, honey. I'll invite you to our group chat, and we'll discuss when to meet there later. Remember to

check the time, and you have to come. I'm looking forward to seeing you,"

Violet said without waiting for Carla's response, and then she quickly hung up.

"Wait, Violet, Violet?" Carla shouted, but all she heard was the toot sound from the phone.

She hadn't made a decision yet.

"Carla, let's come to the party. I want to see what it looks like," Sean raised his hand and showed his

approval since he became energetic when he heard they could come to a party.

He looked a bit depressed on the train, but after hearing the good news, he was excited again.

That was why they were called kids, because they could become vigorous in no time once they knew

they could go out to play.

Carla obviously wanted to refuse, but she couldn't speak her mind after seeing Sean's eyes get filled

with so much enthusiasm.

Maybe it was fine to take Sean there and have a look. They could always leave if they didn't like the

party.

The night in JA City was extraordinarily bustling.

The weather there was like spring all the year round. And people in the street always came and went in

an endless flow. The shops in the area had a dazzling array of beautiful exhibits, and branded stores

stayed open late so they could attract customers from all over the world.

Through the windows of the taxi, Carla saw a scene of so much feasting and revelry, which made her

realize why a lot of people yearned for and did their best to settle down in this city.

JA City was so special that it could attract people, no matter what their dreams might be, by offering

various kinds of opportunities to them.

Soon, they arrived at

the Rose Club.

Looking at herself with new clothes, which she had newly bought, Carla took a deep breath and walked

into the club with Sean, raising her head proudly.

Their parents might've died an untimely death, but they had taught the kids how to be well-mannered.

Even if they were dressed in rags, they would always remember to behave. They might be poor, but

they were not uncivilized.

It was beyond compare—a man with expensive clothes but remained uncultivated and one with cheap

clothes and good manners.

For Carla, she was the latter.

"Good evening, sir. I believe we have a reservation here. We're looking for VIP room No. 98," Carla

said to the staff, showing him the pass, which had been shared in their class group chat, so the staff let

them in.

"Wow, Carla, what a fabulous club! From the outside, you would think it was just a simple club. Can I

explore this place a little bit?" Sean couldn't help himself from gazing around curiously.

"Sean, do you still remember what I told you before we came here?" staring at him, Carla reminded

serious.

"Oh," Sean replied and drew back without saying another word.

Carla told him that it would be fine to be curious and look around, but he couldn't speak out everything

he thought out loud like a country bumpkin.

He understood, and, of course, he didn't want to embarrass Carla in front of her former classmates.

"Carla? Is that you? Come here, this way!"

Violet who was waiting at the door waved to Carla when she saw her walking from the other side of the

corridor. As she walked toward Carla, she said, "Wow, you haven't changed at all since the last time we

met, Carla!"

"Violet? Jesus, I almost couldn't recognize you! You've changed a lot. You look much more beautiful..."

Carla admired her sincerely. The Violet in front of her was totally different from the one she knew back

in high school.

"Of course! See my double-edged eyelids which I had done in South Korea? And I've had a micro

facelift as well. I'm so miserable that I'm not as beautiful as you guys, so I have to make great efforts

just to become a beauty through some surgeries. You couldn't begin to imagine the pain I went

through," Violet told the story without holding anything back.

"Is this Sean? Wow, you're such a cool boy now. I still remember when you were still a cute little baby

at that time. Come here, let me hug our little brother. Well, although you don't look exactly like Carla,

luckily, your face is outstanding, so I guess you'll be a lady killer in the future. Haw-haw..."

Violet bantered as she pinched Sean's chubby cheek. Carla removed her hands and smiled, "Your

personality hasn't changed at all. Pouncing on the handsome guy as quickly as you can and never

considering his age."

Indeed, she and Sean looked different. If she didn't witness her mother's pregnancy and giving birth to

Sean, Carla would think Sean was adopted because their parents were worried about having no male

successor.

"What? Carla, if I remember correctly, it was you who climbed the wall with me to peep on the school

hunk to change. So, what? Have you turned over a new leaf and become an upright person..."

Carla covered her mouth before she could say anything further and quipped, "Don't rake up the old

stories. How embarrassing!"

Thinking of the time in high school, Violet tried to hold back her laughter. It was truly very interesting.

No one dared to bully Carla back then, because she was fearless, and the school hunk almost even

became her boyfriend if only he didn't have to transfer to another school.

Carla sighed.

'Back in old days, I was young and had nothing to fear. I thought the simple but happy life at that

moment was everything I could wish for.

However, everything had changed since dad and mum died.

If they had been alive now, I might still have been that carefree girl, ' she thought deeply.

"By the way, I should inform you in advance. Ruth will come too. You know, that girl who was our

school queen and your enemy? They say that she's pretty successful now.

As far as I've been told, Ruth hooked up with Rhys, the second son of the An family. Have you heard of

the Ans? They are the omnipotent family in JA City who connects with political circles, military circles,

and business circles. A single call from them is able to rally multitudes of people.

Simply speaking, they are the Gods in JA City. Therefore, can you imagine how aggressive Ruth is

now?! We should be more careful,"

Violet did her best to explain the situation here so that Carla could avoid some troubles which might be

caused by her lack of necessary information about the current situation.

Carla understood Violet's worries and appreciated it. After all, Ruth didn't get along with her in high

school at all. They had been young and naive then, but she wasn't sure whether Ruth could turn over a

new leaf as well.

"I see. Violet, thank you. Just relax, I know what to do," Carla reassured her.

When they were about to enter the room, a handsome man and a pretty woman walked toward them.

"What bad luck?! Speak of the devil and she will appear," Violet cursed in secret. Tapping Carla's

shoulder, she mumbled, "See, Ruth is coming."
