Chapter 93
It had been almost ten years since that incident during Sophia''s sophomore year. While her memory of
it was still vivid, she didn''t quite feel like pursuing the matter anymore since so many years had passed.
After speaking about it with Katherinest night, she thought about it and felt that it was indeed not
quite worthwhile.
However, it was actually sometimes difficult if one wanted to stay silent and keep a low-profile.
Sophia had just woken up when she received a voice call from Seraphina. The vibrations from her
secondary phone were so great that the noise promptly woke her.
The sky outside was still gloomy. Sophia nced at the time, only to see that it wasn''t even half past
seven yet.
As the corners of her mouth twitched, she picked up her phone and answered the voice call. “Hello, this
is Sophia speaking.”
“Sophia, it''s me, Seraphina! Do you remember that we''re having a ss reunion tonight at a little over
six o''clock in the evening today? I was afraid that you''d forgotten, so I gave you a call to remind you
about it! By the way, we allow everyone to bring their other half, so bring Joshua along if he''s free!”
“Okay,” Sophia repliedzily.
Seraphina couldn''t discern anything amiss. If it had been Yvonne, she would''ve been trembling in fear
ages ago.
After all, no anyone could withstand Sophia''s grumpiness in the morning.
“Oh yes, Prisci and the others asked me for your WhatsApp. Do add them to your contacts! It''s
destiny that we studied together, so we former ssmates have got to keep in contact.”
“Okay,” Sophia again answered cidly.
Seraphina proceeded to mention the location of the hotel and the room number of the private room
once more before hanging up the phone.
Sure enough, when Sophia exited the chat interface, she saw several new messages from unknown
numbers.
She merely swept her gaze over them but did nothing at all. Instead, she tossed the phone aside
before picking up her primary phone and making a call.
Meanwhile, Seraphina rushed over to the group chat with Prisci and the others as soon as she hung
up the voice call to update them about things. She texted: Don''t worry! Sophia is definitely attending
tonight! She''s something else now! I heard that she''s the owner of Specter Entertainment or something.
The instant her message went out, someone in the group replied: I''ve checked, and thatpany''s
registered capital is only two million. There are merely a total of thirty celebrities under thepany at
present. The most popr celebrities are Katherine Quinn and Mason Queen, but they just rose to
fame in recent years. It''s no more than a smallpany! Can itpare with the Fortune 500
company that belongs to Prissy''s husband''s family?
Someone else then typed: Of course not! Besides, when she and Alexander divorced, the Xenos family
didn''t give her a single cent! What''s to fear about her?
Another person echoed: Yes, exactly!
While the four-person group was all abuzz, Sophia had also just hung up the phone.
Coincidentally, the hotel where they were having the ss reunion had been acquired by Sophia two
years ago.
Well, what can I do? I wanted to be kind and magnanimous, but the circumstances seemingly aren''t
allowing me to do so.
The ss reunion was at six o''clock in the evening, so Sophia left home at half past five and hailed a
taxi. By the time the taxi came to a stop in front of the hotel entrance, it was six o''clock on the dot.
No sooner had she alighted from the taxi than she heard a familiar yet foreign voice. “Hey, isn''t this our
campus belle?”
As Sophia turned, she immediately caught sight of a familiar woman. The woman was holding a
handbag from Lucent''s winter collection that year, and the coat she wore was Dazzle''s new winter
collection. Even her shoes weren''t cheap.
After so many years, Prisci was still as high-profile as ever.
Sophia shed her a smile. “It''s been a long time, Prisci.”
“Oh, you still remember me?”
“My memory is pretty good.”
Sophia was a top student who always cinched first ce at school, so her memory was naturally good.
Conversely, Prisci''s memory wasn''t all that impressive.

Upon hearing that, Prisci smirked slightly. “It''s almost been ten years since we graduated. I heard
that you''re doing quite well.”
“Yeah.”
Sophia wasn''t the least bit modest, and that turned Prisci off. “We seem to bete, so we should
hurry up and go in.”
And so, both popr figures in ss back then arrivedte. The instant they entered the private room,
a bunch of ssmates greeted Sophia with astounded looks in their eyes.
Many years had passed, but she was still the Sophia of the past, her countenance as enthralling as
ever.
Prisci was also considered a beauty, even more so after she had dressed up meticulously.
When she stood beside Sophia, however, her delicate makeup appeared too heavy. In terms of aura
and features, Sophia resembled a dazzling peony at full bloom, while Prisci was more of a wildflower
by the side of the road. She was lovely among the green weeds, but when she was ced together
with a peony, she was entirely overshadowed.
In the past few ss reunions, she would definitely be the center of attention the moment she arrived,
with the limelight on her.
s, that was without Sophia''s presence. She had almost forgotten that she could only ever be the
supporting character whenever Sophia was present.
Prisci felt as though she had returned to her high school days. As long as Sophia and Katherine were
around, she could only be a nobody forever.
Seraphina''s boyfriend was a small-time manager in thepany belonging to Prisci''s husband''s
family, so Seraphina had been currying favor with Prisci over the years.
During the ss reunions for the past few years, she would praise Prisci to the skies without fail as
soon as thetter arrived.
That day was no exception. Beforeing over, she had prepared a ton ofpliments.
But the instant she saw Sophia, she couldn''t quite bring herself utter those tteries.
After all, the difference was like night and day.
Sophia hadn''t attended the ss reunion for many years, so news of her could only be gleaned from
the inte. It was a rare appearance for her this time, so the majority of the people went up to her as
soon as she stepped into the room.
Being the campus belle and top scorer, she was considered the goddess of eighty percent of the boys
in her ss back then.
It had been ten years after graduation, and most of them had some achievements, so they were all
eager to unt themselves before their goddess upon hearing that Sophia was attending the ss
reunion that year.
However, that thought vanished into thin air after theyid eyes on her. They weren''t worthy of her ten
years ago, but ten yearster, she was all the more unattainable to them.
Needless to say, she was beautiful. That aside, her calm and elegant aura was no longer a matter of
wealth and riches.
“Have you been appointed as an angel in the past few years, Sophia, that your aura is increasingly
different from us mortals?” a male ssmate who was rtively poor asked.
Smiling, Sophia was just about to answer when a female voice interjected, “What angel? Why, didn''t
you all see the news that she married Mr. Xenos of Odyssey? But then, that was over four years ago. A
year ago, they got divorced.”
The person who spoke was Prisci''sckey during high school, and she used to make such sarcastic
remarks often in the past.
Even after so many years, she was still as foul-mouthed as ever.
In response, Sophia arched an eyebrow and remarked mildly, “You''ve paid much attention to my life,
Xandria.”
At once, Xandria Lister''s expression stiffened. “Anyone who goes on the inte knows this.”
Chuckling nonchntly, Sophiamented, “Indeed. But probably everyone who goes on the inte
is also about to know that your husband cheated on you.”
“What nonsense are you spouting? My husband loves me! How could he possibly cheat on me? In fact,
he just drove me over! If I hadn''t felt that it wasn''t quite appropriate to bring my significant half to our
ss reunion, he even wanted toe in with me! He can''t leave me for a single second, so don''t run
your mouth, Sophia! If you want to speak, do so with evidence!”
Sophia regarded Xandria with a half-smile but didn''t bother riposting. It was as though Xandria made a
casual remark.
Nheless, that statement was indeed rather despicable. Naturally, someone stepped forward to
smooth things over.
At that moment, Seraphina tugged at Xandria. “Stop, Xan! Don''t say anything more!”
“Let go of me and allow me to speak! What campus belle? Is she so great just because she''s beautiful?
So what if she''s pretty? Right now, she''s still a divorcee! Do you all know that is? It''s a woman
someone doesn''t want and abandoned!”
The smile on Sophia''s face faltered. “Sorry, but I was the one who didn''t want Alexander.”
