Chapter 563


    In order to turn the tables, Jake recalled a name that Aaron had mocked Jacob with, Matilda. So, he


    pretended to be curious and asked, "Dad, what''s the issue with this Matilda that you talked about


    earlier? You guys seem to be very close to her, I''m rather curious..." 5


    Aaron threw a sideway nce at Jacob and said with a grin, "Matilda Hall was the most beautiful


    girl in our batch, and a lot of boys fell in love with her. In fact, if her admirers queued up, it would


    circle the university twice." 3


    Then, Aaron deliberately raised his voice andughed, "Eventually, Matilda must have been


    hypnotized or something, because she chose Jacob! Since he was in love with the most beautiful


    and popr girl in school, he had to avoid walking into people for fear that he would be ambushed


    and beaten." 2


    "What happenedter?"


    Again, Aaron looked at Jacob in amusement and giggled. "Then, Matilda dumped him and flew to


    the United States. She hasn’te back since." 3


    Then, he turned to Jacob and asked in a mocking tone, "Oh, Jacob, do you know why Matilda broke


    up with you?"


    Jacob growled, "It’s none of your business."


    Aaronughed at his reaction. "Let me tell you, in truth, Matilda was irritated because of her


    countless admirers, so she decided to find a fake boyfriend to shun all the annoying buggers.


    Hence, she chose you, and you were the only one who was kept in the dark. After she used you,


    she dumped you and went abroad! Hahaha!" 2


    Jacob shouted angrily, "Shut up! Matilda and I broke u p because..."


    He couldn’t finish his sentence.

    His expression changed from outrage to regret, destion, and sadness. He hung his head low,


    sighed gently, and waved his hand. "Forget it, let''s drop the subject." 3


    "Oh, don''t!" Aaron said aggressively. "Don''t leave your words hanging like that! Tell us, why did you


    break up with her? Wasn''t it because she was done with you?"


    "Of course not!"


    "Tell us then!"


    "It''s between us, you have no business meddling in our affairs."


    Aaron clicked his tongue in annoyance and said, "In m y opinion, you are just too embarrassed to


    admit that you were fooled!"


    Jacob waved his hand dejectedly. "Say whatever you want, noment."


    "You..." Aaron didn''t expect Jacob to call a truce so soon, and he rolled his eyes at him in agitation,


    feeling as though he had punched air instead of a sandbag. 3


    At this moment, more and more people had arrived, and very soon, more than twenty guys were


    gathered a t the gate.


    Jacob was right, the people who came to the reunion were all guys.


    These elderly pals seemed to have a very sincere and genuine friendship among one another. They


    started chatting with each other, and Charlie even saw that some of them had tears in their eyes. 4


    Eric, the first to approach Jacob, came to them and ushered, "Guys, don''t just stand there,e in


    and talk."


    Aaron nodded. "Yes, let''s go to our old ssroom to talk. Mr. Lee may take a while to arrive since


    he is feeling under the weather. Let''s go in first."
