Chapter 1867 Just as Selena turned around with a glass of wine in her hand, she overheard two women talking
beside her. “Wow, who is he?! His looks are out of this world!”
Upon hearing this, Selena focused on the direction of their gaze. Sure enough, she saw Jared at first glance, nearly
dropping her wine glass in shock. God has heard my prayers!
Jared really is here, and he’s shaking hands with a senior. Selena felt her heart was about to stop beating, thinking
this was her chance.
Yet, just as he finished shaking hands, Jared held another woman’s hand and walked off. It was then Selena noticed
the woman, pondering to herself whether that was his girlfriend or not.
Finally, Selena’s jealousy erupted the moment the woman looked in her general direction. Damn it! Why is it her?!
Are you telling me the woman who is accompanying Jared is actually Ellen?! I almost didn’t recognize her!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtStill, Selena had to admit that after dressing up, Ellen looked exceptionally stunning, for her figure and looks were
top-tier. As Ellen stood alongside Jared, her graceful demeanor was very alluring.
This made Selena even more spiteful. Right now, her heart was in utter disarray.
On the other hand, Ellen did not see her since there were too many women who were dressed to kill, making her
unable to take it all in. Instead, a lot of jealous gazes were thrown at her.
It was then Jared saw a senior walking up to him. He held Ellen’s hand, saying, “Let’s go over and greet someone.”
“Hello, Mr. Malik,” greeted Jared. “You’re here, Jared! The last time we ate together, it was still in Dansbury!” The
senior laughed.
Xavier Malik was the vice president of the Manson Group. Being an influential person in the business world, he
contacted Jared’s family quite often, so he was somewhat his senior.
“Indeed, it has been! A few years flashed by just like that!”
“We haven’t even met each other after coming back for so long, haha!” Xavier patted him on the shoulder, also
noticing the beauty standing beside him. “Well, your companion sure is stunning!”
“She’s Ellen.” Jared looked at her with a smile.
Observing her from head to toe, Xavier knew that Jared’s companion was not just some nobody. Besides, from
Jared’s gaze, he knew that this woman was not just his companion for the night.
If she marries the Presgrave Family, her status would be something else. Approaching him with another matter in
mind, Xavier smiled and said, “Jared, I have a few friends that want to meet you in private.”
Jared nodded before embracing Ellen subtly, whispering gently in her ear, “You can go take a seat there and wait
for me. I’ll come back for you soon.”
Then, Jared called out to a waiter and took a glass of juice, handing it to her. Taking it, Ellen smiled. “Alright. You
guys go ahead.”

Selena, who had been watching her all this time, wanted to walk up to her when she passed by a couple of women
and overheard one of them talking smugly. “He’s Jared Presgrave, a classmate of mine during elementary school. I
didn’t think that I would bump into him here.”
Under the envious gaze of the surrounding ladies, the woman who spoke cast a lovestruck gaze at Jared, who was
walking upstairs. “Her
went abroad during fifth grade all of a sudden, and I didn’t get to see him after that. But I can tell you he was the
brightest person in our school.”
“Wow, I’m so jealous of you! You were actually in the same class as him!”
Selena noticed that the woman was, as expected, a typical rich girl. With pretty looks and an elegant demeanor,
she was leagues above the women around her. “Our relationship was very close back then, as he even borrowed
things from me. He must still remember me,” the girl said confidently.
“Hm, how about his female companion? Who is she? How come we’ve never seen her before?”
