Chapter 526
Right after Heath left, Katherine asked eagerly, “Who was that?”
Sophia shot her a look. “I said I didn''t know him, didn''t I?”
Katherine scoffed. “Well, I don''t believe that.”
If Sophia didn''t recognize the man, she wouldn''t have bothered talking to him.
Katherine rested her chin on her hand, a mischievous grin spreading across her face as she fixed her
gaze on Sophia.
Sophia knew that Katherine would stare at her the whole day if she didn''t say anything.
Sipping on her lemon-infused water, she revealed, “I really don''t know him. We met briefly two days
ago at Coldbridge.”
“How did he know your name?”
Sophia had to admit that Katherine could sometimes be smart. Chuckling, she responded, “Perhaps he
heard it when Granddad and Aunt Kylie called my name.
As Sophia didn''t seem to be lying, Katherine gave a satisfied nod. “He seems to be interested in
courting you.”
Sophia put her ss down and regarded Katherine with an amused look. “Are you interested in him?
Should I mention that to Joshua?”
Guilt overwhelmed Katherine when she heard Joshua''s name. “I was just asking. It was a casual
question.”
She refused to give up just yet. “But he seems really determined in winning your heart. Alexander is
abroad, so be careful.”
Sophia clicked her tongue. “I paid a visit to Central High School when I returned to Coldbridge, and I
recalled something there.”
“What is it?” Katherine asked innocently, thinking that Sophia was merely trying to change the topic.
Sophia''s lips curled into a smile. Slowly, she said, “Oh, nothing much. Just a little memory from the
past. I happen to remember someone hiding their love letters underneath the third tree in the field. It''s
been years, so don''t you think it''s about time to dig them out and relive those sweet moments?”
Katherine immediately panicked. “Soph, that was years ago. I''ve already forgotten all about it. Why did
you suddenly mention it?”
Katherine and Joshua were childhood sweethearts, but they only revealed their feelings for each other
during their sophomore year in university.
Katherine was really beautiful, even though she might be a little dimwitted asionally.
During her middle school years, many boys gave her love letters. Even though she didn''t fully grasp the
depths of romantic feelings at that age, she found the love letters interesting and ended up keeping all
of them. It was a rather unique hobby.
Most people experienced more intense romantic emotions in high school while some began
experiencing love during middle school. While Katherine had received only a few love letters during her
middle school years, her collection expanded significantly in high school.
By then, Katherine had be quite the seasoned love letter collector. Despite her less-than-ster
performance innguage exams, she found great joy in meticulously examining the love letters she
received for any grammar or spelling mistakes.
Katherine took her love letter collecting to another level by numbering each letter in her collection. She
had made a conscious decision not to reveal this hobby to Joshua, as she knew he became upset
whenever he witnessed her receiving love letters. Avoiding unnecessary conflicts with him, she
entrusted this intimate secret to Sophia alone.
On the night of their graduation, Katherine found herself on the receiving end of about eight love letters.
In a slightly tipsy state, she concocted an excuse to visit the restroom but instead led Sophia to their
school field. There, Katherine dered her intention to bury the over two hundred love letters she had
amassed over the years. She envisioned returning to this very spot as adults, reminiscing about their
youthful days while unearthing the buried memories.
Sophia found Katherine''s act to be rather childish, but Katherine''s determination, fueled by her
inebriated state, was unwavering. She spent a solid half an hour digging a hole with fervor, adamant
about burying her precious collection of love letters.
It became evident that Katherine had meticulously nned this endeavor beforehand, as she had even
come prepared with a zip-lock bag to protect the letters. Years had passed, but if they were to unearth
the bag, the letters would still be intact.
Katherine and Joshua''s rtionship had blossomed during their sophomore year in university,
eventually leading them to tie the knot. Over time, Katherine had seemingly forgotten about the love
letters she buried back then.

Sophia, on the other hand, suddenly thought of those buried memories during her recent trip back to
Central High School. Otherwise, she wouldn''t even remember such a childish act.
Seeing Katherine all flustered, Sophia smiled and continued, “Remember how you used to say that you
would dig them out when you got married so your husband would know how popr you were? Well,
you''re married now, and your little one is on the way. It seems like the perfect time to unearth those
love letters.”
“No, let''s not do that! We say stupid stuff when we were young, so forget I ever said that!” Katherine
protested.
A few days ago, Katherine received an unexpected call from a young man who had once courted her.
He requested her assistance in shooting a promotional video for hispany. Caught off guard,
Katherine didn''t agree to his request and ended the call. At once, Joshua pinned her on the couch,
mentioning the man''s name and asking if that was him. Katherine replied in affirmation. Without giving
her a chance to exin herself, Joshua swiftly took action, asserting his dominance. If she wasn''t
pregnant, Katherine knew she might end up being tortured in bed for several days in a row.
Katherine couldn''t imagine what he would do in a fit of jealousy if he discovered her love letter
collection.
“How could I forget what you''ve said?” Sophia teased.
As the server approached their table with their food, Sophia discreetly shifted her utensils aside. “Since
you seem to have some free time for gossip, why don''t I help you indulge in a trip down memoryne?”
she suggested.
Katherine was afraid Sophia would dig out the love letters for real and quickly caved in. “Soph, I
surrender. Your rtionship with Alexander is as solid as a rock!”
“Smart of you to use an idiom,” Sophiamented.
Katherine huffed angrily. “I''m not that stupid, okay?”
“Remember someone who barely passed hernguage exams in the university entrance exam?”
Katherine protested, “I identally went off topic when I wrote the essay!”
Sophia nced at her and changed the topic. “Our food is here. Let''s eat.”
Katherine heaved a sigh of relief and dared not continue the topic anymore.
After lunch, they went shopping at the mall.
Katherine made Sophia buy her thetest edition Straize bag and an Arterius bracelet, stating they
were gifts for her unborn son as Sophia was going to be her son''s godmother.
After bing pregnant, Katherine found herself confined to her home. However, she disliked being
cooped up indoors, so since she was finally allowed to venture out of home, she wanted to buy coffee
and barbecued stuff.
If Joshua hadn''t called, she would''ve already dragged Sophia to a barbecued stall. After hanging up,
Sophia and Katherine sat on a bench to take a breather.
As Joshua made his way up the esctor, Katherine quickly gulped the coffee she was holding.
However, as he approached, she quickly handed the coffee back to Sophia. “Oh, this was actually
Sophia''s order. I just took a tiny sip of it,” she exined hastily.
Sophia watched as Katherine put up an act. Finding it amusing, she shook the cup of coffee Katherine
handed to her.
Pft, she finished half of the coffee in one gulp. She has a huge mouth, huh?
Sophia was about to take a sip of the coffee to see if it was that delicious when Joshua took it away
from her.
When she arched a brow, the man nced at her and exined, “She drank it.”
Displeased, Katherine raised her arm to poke at Joshua. “So what if I drank it? I don''t have bad breath
or suffer from any contagious illness!”
Joshua said nothing and took a sip of the coffee. Finding it too sweet, he frowned and gave it back to
Katherine. “Here you go. Next time, don''t order something this sweet.”
Hearing that, Katherine stoppedining and broke into a smile. They held hands and left.
Sophia remained in her seat, not expecting to witness their PDA.
Ugh, that was too much.
