Chapter 218

After hanging up, Jack was filled with a mix of emotions.

He recalled the time by the river when he had confessed his feelings to Feena, only to be rejected. Although many years had passed, that memory was still vivid in his mind.

Now, Feena's attitude toward him had unknowingly changed.

The next morning, the three invited friends happened to have no classes, so they agreed to meet at the gate of Alnewgo University before taking a bus together to Feena's new home.

Feena's parents had originally planned to pick them up by car, but the three politely declined.

At the meeting spot, Jack arrived in simple yet neat attire, while Wesley had gone out of his way to dress up-he even put on cologne. Follow current novᴇls on fındnovel.net

Facing Jack's amused look, Wesley explained that it was all about maintaining a good impression in front of the two goddesses, Feena and Phoebe.

As for the cologne, he had supposedly obtained it in exchange for taking a few photos of Phoebe and Feena for his classmates.

Since freshman year, Wesley had constantly boasted to his classmates about how stunning his old friends were.

At first, no one believed him. They assumed he was just making things up.

Then, Wesley showed them photos of Phoebe and Feena, instantly earning waves of admiration.

But the most impressive moment came when Feena happened to visit Alnewgo University of Technology to see Wesley. His roommates, who saw her in person, were completely stunned.

They found her even more beautiful than in the photos.

This unexpected encounter boosted Wesley's social status in his class-he became someone everyone wanted to befriend.

At one point, he even secured a class committee position by bribing his classmates with printed portraits of Feena.

It was a pity that Phoebe had never visited his university. If she had, it would have caused another uproar.

Unlike Wesley, Phoebe kept her outfit simple. Yet, her natural elegance was impossible to conceal. Even in the most ordinary clothes, her beauty and grace remained striking.

The three of them soon arrived at Feena's home in Alnewgo.

The house was located in the heart of the city. Even with recent price drops, property in this area still cost at least ten thousand per square feet. So, the new house must have cost around one and a half to two million dollars.

It was clear that Feena's parents had done quite well for themselves over the years.

The house had just been renovated, and today was the perfect occasion to liven up the atmosphere with guests.

Aside from inviting her three childhood friends, Feena had also invited two close roommates from university.

When they entered, Feena's mother was busy in the kitchen preparing food, while her father had gone to the hospital to pick up her grandfather.

A year ago, Feena's grandfather had been attacked and stabbed by a criminal on

a public bus. Though he had recovered after treatment, he still required regular checkups at the hospital.

"Feena, how is your grandfather doing now?" a young woman named Lyla Zimmer asked, showing concern.

That bus incident had shocked the entire nation.

It took place on the seventh of June—the first day of the college entrance exam.

Due to its severity, the case had been widely reported and used as an example in discussions on public safety.

"He's doing well now, just needs regular hospital visits for checkups," Feena replied.

Another young woman, Sidney Tanner, was also intrigued by the case and started discussing it.

"I heard that the criminal was really dangerous. How did they finally subdue him?"
