At the party, perhaps due to the eye–catching combination of handsome guys and beautiful girls, or perhaps because Ethan and Sophia were truly affectionate, the attention of the classmates was always drawn to them.
classmates at the gathering couldn’t help but show envy on their faces.
As they watched the two of them openly displaying their affection, their clas
“Evelyn, your younger uncle was so good to his girlfriend, I envy him so much…”
“Yeah, it made me want to find a boyfriend like your cousin!”
“I also wanted, I also wanted!”
Everyone agreed one after another, but it was unclear which statement struck a chord with Ethan, causing his face to suddenly darken.
“You shouldn’t be thinking about finding someone like me at your age, you should be looking for someone your own age.
Speaking, his gaze seemed to drift towards Evelyn, almost imperceptibly.
The air froze instantly, and Evelyn understood the meaning in his eyes, but she still didn’t say anything and took the initiative to step forward to smooth things over.
My uncles just came over to accompany me, you don’t have to worry about them, we can play by ourselves.
The screen in front of the private room still played songs, and others listened to the music and joined in, saying, “Yes, yes, let’s sing!”
The first song is the one Evelyn chose. She hasn’t learned any new songs recently, so she only sang an old song that she had learned before. All on My Own
She held the microphone and started singing along with the music. Her voice was melodious, with a hint of melancholy. After she finished singing a song, everyone couldn’t help but praise her.
“Evelyn, you sang so beautifully! You even managed to convey the bittersweet feeling of unrequited love..”
“Hey, speaking of unrequited love, Evie, since we have already graduated, why don’t you confess to your crush! Otherwise, we won’t know when we will have the chance to meet again.. It would be such a pity if we miss it.”
She glanced at Ethan subconsciously, then quickly averted her gaze and shook her head, “I didn’t have anyone I liked”
Evelyn’s words did not gain their trust, but instead sparked their discussions,
“How could you not have it? You used to sketch right after class, I saw it myself, it was a boy!”
yes, yes! I saw it too, you even wrote a love letter!”
Even Evelyn’s desk mate joined in the fun, “Evie, don’t be stry! I have even seen your textbook filled with that person’s name. I wanted to see it, you hid laster tisan anyone!”
A group of drunk people continued to make a commotion, urging Evelyn to confess, and evestarted to grab her phone. Evelyn bravely protected her phone
At this nutment, Ethan suddenly got up and left, leaving behind the words “I have something to do, so I’ll leave first,” and then he left with Sophia Evelyn breathed a sigh of relied only after she saw him leave. She noticed that her classmate had already taken her phone and dialed the designated number, so she quicldy soutelud her phone back
She had just wanted to explain, but before she could say anything, Ethan’s voice came through in a low tone.
“Evelyn, I would never have liked you”
The sound of the plane hanging up came imediately, and as the words in

We were so good, Eve. I he didn’t like it, it’s because he had no taste!”
“Tut’s right, that’s right”
Since the class reunion, Evelyn has not seen Ethan again.
When they met again, it was on the eve of the dance at the Scott Group’s anniversary celebration. He came back with a box and handed it to her, his gaze
still cold
“Go and give it a try to see if you like it or not.”
Evelyn took the box and went back to her room. She opened it and found a plain but safe white short dress. Unlike the ones he used to carefully select and present to her every time, this kind of little dress was all she had received since she turned 16.
She came downstairs after changing her dress, walked up to Ethan, and gave him a sweet smile, saying. “Thank you, Uncle, I really like it.”
