Chapter 158
After Damon sent a text saying he had boarded his flight around 9 o’clock, Chloe’s mood got even
worse.
Rose Davis was super busy all day, either socializing or working her butt off in the office.
Chloe, wearing a white lab coat, was conducting experiments for new products in the R&D lab over and
over again.
Before lunchtime, she stepped out of the lab, and as soon as she entered the office, Rose Davis burst
in
“Come on, Chloe, let’s go grab that lunch we missed yesterday”
Her words came out like rapid gunfire, leaving no room for hesitation.
“Why are you making such a big deal about just one lunch?”
“We gotta eat even if we’re swamped. I’m not a robot, you know. There’s a new restaurant that just
opened up, so let’s give it a try”
Rose Davis chatted with Chloe while driving

a few times a day It really sucks..
She let out a frustrated sigh.
Chloe’s heart sank
“Yeah, we’ve grown up, we have responsibilities, and we’re at the age where we need to support
ourselves”
“Right… Oh, I just remembered, Summit Ridge High School’s centennial celebration is coming up
soon. Let’s go together. It’s been so long since we’ve seen everyone. Let’s see how they doing! I
wonder if my high school crush has changed!”
Chloe smiled faintly, thinking about how subtly Rose had put it…
Summit Ridge High School…
Everyone knows that Summit Ridge University in P City is a highly distinguished institution in the
country.
With its unique education system, strong faculty, and comprehensive and authoritative disciplines, it’s
the top choice for many prestigious families.
The centennial celebration of Summit Ridge High School would definitely bring them to meet many of
their Summit Ridge University classmates
Rose Davis was deliberately avoiding the subject, but there was no way Chloe couldn’t hear it.
Chloe fell silent for a while, and Rose Davis glanced at her with a frown.
“Chloe, we both grew up in P City, and all our friends are from that school. And you haven’t really done
anything wrong, so there’s nothing to run away from!”
“No, I’ll think about it.”
“There’s no need to think about it…”
Rose Davis muttered, making Chloe laugh, “Speaking of your crush… Rose, are you talking about…
Morrison?”
Rose Davis didn’t say anything.
“He’s in the R City, right? Will he come?”
“He definitely will! There will be a lot of people at the celebration who are otherwise impossible to see!”
The restaurant had just opened and was well–promoted, so it was quite crowded.
Rose Davis had a reservation, and the two went straight to their spot.

“Chloe, you’re eating here too?”
Chloe looked up and saw Keira smiling at her.
That pretentious look…
Chloe turned her head and looked forward, and sure enough, she saw Lance in his uniform, walking
towards them.
She gave a sarcastic smile and watched Lance approach.
“Chloe…” Lance was obviously surprised, not expecting to meet Chloe here.
Seeing that Chloe wasn’t planning on acknowledging them, Keira looked at Lance with a hint of
grievance and bit her lip.
“Sis, our family has booked a private room for a dinner party, the day after tomorrow. Grandma hopes
you can join…”
Keira paused, worried that Chloe would refuse, and immediately added,
They might discuss the company’s anniversary celebration there. Chloe, Grandpa gave you quite a few
shares back then, and he hopes you can care more about the company’s affairs…”
