Chapter 108 Bonnie took out a gold-trimmed envelope from the second drawer. The envelope's surface featured a delicate ink painting of mountains and rivers, clearly crafted with care. announce your identity at the event"

Handing the envelope to Yvette, Bonnie said. "Vve. Winona sent this here. She personally came to our dorm to deliver it the day after you left. It seems to be an invitation to her apprenticeship ceremony on Sunday. She also mentioned that your father would publicly Bonnie paused, then said angrily, "Yve, you have no idea how annoying Winona is. She said the apprenticeship ceremony is really important and hoped you'd be there on time. Her apprenticeship ceremony and your welcome home party are happening at the same time, but she's acting like it's all about her." Yvette nodded indifferently, casually putting on a tracksuit. Without a second glance, she tossed the envelope onto the table. She pinched Bonnie's cheek playfully, her tone lazy. "Let's go. It's not worth getting mad over something so insignificant. I'll treal you to a milkshake" Milkshake Bonne glanced at Yvette, whose face remained expressionless. It seemed she had been worried for nothing. Yvette didn't care at all. Thinking back to how arrogant Winona had been when she delivered the invitation, Bonnie couldn't help but grumble. They first twent to Argrol University students' favorite milkshake shop, only to replace it closed. A note on the door explained that the owner was getting married and the shop would be closed for three days.

Left with no choice, they went to a slightly farther dessert shop, famous for its cream cakes and a favorite hangout for couples from Argrol University

After ordering their milkshakes, Yvette told Bonnie to go inside while she waited outside. Standing near the entrance with one hand in her pocket. Yvette pulled out her phone with the other hand, scrolling through the news. She came across an entertainment article about Winona's apprenticeship ceremony. The entire article was filled with over-the-top compliments-calling Winona a genius, a lady of grace, a role model, and perfect in every way. Just as Yvette was about to scroll past it, something caught her eye.

It was said that Matthew from the Carter family would make a major announcement at the event, urging readers to stay tuned. It was a typical media tactic to add a sense of mystery.

"Miss, your milk

milkshake's ready." The guy at the milkshake shop had been distracted while making milkshakes, sneakily glancing at Yvette the whole time.

As he handed over the milkshake, he saw Yvette's slender, fair hand. The guy's face turned red. Seeing Yvette was about to head inside, he mustered the courage and called out to her, "Wait. I added extra caramel for you. Hope you like it." Yvette stopped, turned around, and, with her usual cool expression, politely thanked him, "Thanks."

The guy hadn't expected a response from such a seemingly aloof girl. His face turned even redder, and he shouted after her. "Goddess. I'm Flynn Reynolds from the computer science department, and I'll always support your

His shout drew passersby's attention, but the guy was so happy that he didn't mind the stares. Yvette simply turned her back to the crowd.

Inside the dessert shop, Bonnie sat in a corner by the window-the same spot where Yvette and Yulia had sat last time. It had the best view of the entire shop, but Bonnie was visibly uncomfortable.

Yvette, holding two milkshakes, walked over, and halfway there, the understood the reason for Bonnie's unease. Not far from her sat Tobias, engaged in conversation with a stylish young woman. Tobias' seat faced directly toward Bonnie. Bonnie was clearly uncomfortable, trapped in an awkward situation. A simple hello would have sufficed, but who would have

thought Tobias was on a blind date?

49%1

In the five minutes she'd been sitting there, Bonnie felt like she had been there for an eternity. Worse still, she overheard the woman across from Tobias belittling his profession and salary, making her furious.

As Yvette passed by Tobias, she stopped and greeted him, "Hello, Mr. Sunderland."

Tobias hadn't wanted to be there in the first place. The blind date was arranged by Simon. He had been nagging Tobias endlessly about the importance of marriage and children. Simon had been the principal of Argrol University for years, yet he was still a conservative man.

Tobias felt he could manage just fine by himself. He only had to worry about himself and no one else. He didn't want to get married, but Simon wouldn't stop nagging him every day. To stop the constant badgering. Tobias had reluctantly agreed fo the blind date. Yet from the moment he sat down, the woman had been criticizing him non-stop, even suggesting that if they got together, he should quit his job. He had been trying to leave for a while, but the woman insisted they continue talking.

He couldn't refuse, so he had no choice but to bear it with a forced smile. Yvette's appearance saved him from the awkward situation. He immediately stood up. "Yvette, is your business all settled? Did you just get back? Are you here specifically to Tobias saw Yvette as his savior and looked at her with hope. His rapid string of questions momentarily caught Yvette off guard, but when she looked at Tobias and his date, she realized what was going on.

Playing along, she responded politely, "Yes. If you're available, I have some questions I'd like to ask you."

Tobias eagerly nodded, "Of course! Let's discuss it right away." Relieved to Rellev have an excuse to leave, Tobias turned to Sophia Morris, the woman across from him, and said with a gentlemanly smile, "Ms. Morris, I'm sorry, but I have something urgent to attend to. The coffee is on me, and I don't think we're a good match. It seems you don't replace r replace me suitable either. Let's leave it at that." Sophia was from a wealthy family in Seacrity and hadn't been interested in the blind date at first. However, after meeting Tobias in person, she was drawn to his looks. Her family had enough money that she didn't care about his income. She wanted Tobias to marry into her family. That was why she had said so many things to belittle him.

She had completely forgotten her father's advice before she left to be polite and not offend Tobias by acting spoiled. When Yvette showed up. Sophia initially assumed she was Tobias' ex-girlfriend. Upon learning Yvette was a student, Sophia felt relieved but still uncomfortable.

She could tell that Yvette was a natural beauty. She knew it because she had had several cosmetic surgeries. Jealousy crept in. and she didn't hide it

When Tobias publicly rejected her and prepared to leave with Yvette, Sophia slammed her glass on the table, making a loud

noise.

Glaring at Yvette, she sneered, her voice dripping with sarcasm, Tobias, you should be grateful thar someone like me took a liking to you. However, you're blind and don't know what's best for you. Well, if that's the case, forget it. Even after saying that, she was dissatisfied and attempted to splash water at Tobias.
