Chapter 406 ss Reunion
"I won''t be free that day. Perhaps another time," J said, her voice calm and devoid of emotion.
She''d just had a bad day and was in no mood to attend a ss reunion.
When J was in college, she hadn''t gotten along with E and the others. She''d been a
wallflower, so it was surprising that they invited her this time.
E''sughter came to an abrupt end and she was suddenly serious. "All our ssmates will be
there. People will notice if you''re the only one absent. Do you want that? It''s not that hard to take
one day off. It''s not every day you get an opportunity like this. Who knows when the next ss
reunion will be?"
J bit her lip, deep in thought. "I''ll consider it."
E noticed that J was in a bad mood, and her tone brightened. "What''s there to think about?
You do sound down in the dumps though; what happened?"
"It''s nothing. I''m fine." J sighed in frustration.
"I''ll go."
She decided it wasn''t a bad idea to have a get-together. She did want to rx and change her
mood.
E''s cheerfulughter on the phone showed how pleased she was. "Wonderful! I''ll see you at
Susie''s."
After the call disconnected, J kept thinking about the reunion. Maybe meeting her old
ssmates again wasn''t a bad idea.
J had a boring college life, but it was still much better back then than the infighting she was
having now at the Larson Group. Besides, she''d had some bad blood between her and E in
college. Meeting again was a great way to get past it.
J told Ethan about the call from E that night.
"I have some matters to resolve, so I won''t be home early for the next few days, Saturday included.
Don''t worry about me. You can have a good time with your ssmates," Ethan said, pinching her
cheek. He had a meeting with some foreign partners that day.
J nodded. Although she didn''t pay much attention to it, it was strange that Ethan had suddenly
be quite busy ever since he changed his job under the Lester family''s pressure.

The day of the ss reunion arrived and J arrived at the restaurant ording to the address
which E had texted to her. A whole year had passed, but it wasn''t like they changed drastically.
E was able to recognize J at first nce.
"J! Over here!" E waved J over to the table where she sat.
E had changed quite a bit. She was now dressed expensively. She even had a Hermes bag
sitting on the table in front of her. She pulled J into the seat beside her and said, "Wow J,
you haven''t changed huh? Your fashion taste is still terrible. Does the Larson Group not pay you
well?"
J smiled and stayed quiet. She''d received many messages talking about how E was the one
funding the ss reunion and that she had booked the whole restaurant for the night, even going as
far as paying for everything they would eat and drink.
J knew that E''s family wasn''t well-to-do. Back in college, she was even spotted wearing
knock-offs. How was she able to act so generously now?
"E, I heard that your husband runs apany. Isn''t he great?" Several of their old ssmates
surrounded E, buttering her up.
With an unbothered look on her face, E said, "My husband''s grandfather runs thepany. It''s a
family business and now my husband is in charge of it. My husband has been saying that he wants
to start his own business, but his family won''t hear of it. They keep saying he is the only heir.
There''s just so much responsibility on his shoulders."
"Wow." Envy filled the voices of those around her. "Isn''t it better to have a family business to inherit?
Starting a new business is risky!"
"You''re so lucky! It''s such a surprise! You got married quickly after graduation, so while we were
struggling to get jobs, you were already a rich housewife!"
E smirked slightly, raising her chin proudly. Turning to J, amusement colored her tone. "How
about you, J? How are you doing? You''re married as well, aren''t you?"
