Chapter 1

The autumn wind was blowing, and the yellow leaves were scattered all over the ground.

After getting off work, Harper was walking down the street, and she passed by a pair of boys and girls wearing high school uniforms, which caught her attention. They were in their prime and at the age when their love for them was just starting to bloom in adolescence.

At this age, she had the biggest secret in her entire youth. She had secretly liked Ayden for a long time without telling everyone.

In order to be admitted to the same university as him, she studied hard just to follow in his footsteps.

Later, she got her wish and entered the same university with him. During their sophomore year, Ayden chose to drop out of school due to family changes.

Since then, she has never seen him again.

It has been three years now, and she only occasionally hears mentions from friends.

She didn't know if she would meet him again in the future, or when she would meet him again.

The ringtone of her cell phone rang, blocking her from her memories, and she answered the call from her best friend Sofia.

"Harper, private room 587 of Serenity Hotel."

"Okay."

Harper stopped a taxi and went to Serenity Hotel. Today is their high school class reunion. Harper felt uneasy because she didn't know Ayden would come or not today.

She didn't have high hopes, after all, he hadn't appeared at any class reunions in the past three years.

Arriving at the private room 587 of Serenity Hotel, Harper opened the door and the classmates in the room suddenly became quiet the moment they saw her.

The students looked at her with a hint of amazement in their eyes. The silence only lasted for a moment, and the scene became lively again.

"Harper is here, come and sit here."

Squad leader Andrew arranged for her to sit on the seat next to him, but she refused with a smile.

"No need, squad leader. I'll just sit next to Sofia."

Harper came to sit next to Sofia.

Harper looked around the room, but couldn’t see Ayden. He probably wasn’t going to come this time too. It had been years now. Harper was curious and wanted to know what Ayden would like now.

At this time, everyone noticed that there was an empty seat next to the squad leader, and Joel asked curiously.

"Leader, who is the seat next to you reserved for?"

Other students began to joke.

"It's not for the squad leader's girlfriend, right?"

"The squad leader has a girlfriend?"

"Squad leader, how can you abandon us and secretly get married?"

At this time, someone glanced at Harper and whispered, "Don't the squad leader like Harper?"

Andrew smiled helplessly, glanced at Yan Xi across from him, and hurriedly explained, "I don't have a girlfriend, he is our high school classmate, a very successful business person, wait a minute You'll know when he comes."

Hearing him say this, everyone became more curious.

"Who are the very successful business people?"

"The most successful ones should be Steven and Isa."

"Especially Steven, who is now a business tycoon."

"I have been with these two for a long time. I have never seen them before, most of them have been seen in the financial news."

Hearing these two familiar names, Harper and Sofia were stunned. Sofia, who was originally a loud person, was also unusually quiet at the moment.

Harper took a sip of water nervously, anticipating whether it would be him.

While everyone was still discussing in full swing, the door of the private room opened from the outside, and a familiar yet unfamiliar figure came in.
