Chapter 611 Serves Her Right
While her ex-ssmates were discussing the fact that Charlize had gotten together with Spencer,
Jacqueline was about to express her skepticism when Spencer’s “thank you” caused her world to
copse.
After Marcelo praised howpatible Charlize and Spencer were, Spencer’s acknowledgment put
their rtionship beyond any doubt.
The sudden realization caused Katrina to subconsciously look at Jacqueline. Even the other
ssmates around them did the same thing too.
After all, it was Jacqueline and Katrina who started the rumor about Charlize getting together with a rich
old man in the chat group. If that wasn’t enough, both of them were still harping on the topic not too
long ago.
Contrary to their words, Charlize had arrived at the ballroom morously with the “rich old man,” who
turned out to be none other than their university senior—Spencer Lacroix.
Obviously, everyone knew who Spencer was, for he was an exceptional figure both inside and outside
the university. On top of that, he had taught their ss before as a substitute lecturer.
During that period, quite a number of girls had confessed their feelings to Spencer. Jacqueline was just
the most dramatic among them.
Even though some were jealous of Charlize over her rtionship with Spencer, most of her ssmates
were more interested in watching Jacqueline humiliate herself.
She had brought it upon herself by unterally dering, based on her decent looks, that she was
Spencer’s girlfriend back then.
Unlike Jacqueline, Charlize kept a significantly low profile despite being a lot prettier. Throughout her
four years in university, Charlize spent them quietly and wasn’t embroiled in any controversy at all.
On top of that, Jacqueline had given Charlize grief during their university years after resenting thetter
over the matter of campus belle. It was a fact that wasn’t lost on their ssmates.
Now that Charlize and Spencer had gotten together, the turn of events felt like a huge p to
Jacqueline’s face.
“Wow, Charlize and Spencer are together now? No wonder someone was being so sarcastic in the
group chat this morning, using Charlize of ingratiating herself with an ordinary-looking man who was
‘sessful.’ Tsk-tsk. Since when was Spencer ordinary-looking? It’s clear to me that this is just a case
of sour grapes.”
“Some people are just like that. They think what is beyond them is equally unattainable by others too.
Haha, why doesn’t she look at herself in the mirror? I’ve said so before. Considering how gorgeous,
humble, and well-behaved Charlize is, I would choose her too if I were Spencer.”
Sometimes, the rtionship dynamics between girls were just that simple. The two girls who spoke
weren’t on particrly good terms with Charlize. It was just that both of them disliked Jacqueline more.
Sometimes, the rtionship dynamics between girls were just that simple. The two girls who spoke

As the enemy of one’s enemy is naturally one’s friend, all they had to do was take Charlize’s side
against thetter.
It went without saying that Jacqueline was scowling by the time she heard the two girls’ remarks.
The humiliation hade so swiftly that even Katrina didn’t dare defend Jacqueline anymore.
The girls weren’t speaking loudly, yet their voices were clear enough for those involved to hear it.
Throwing Jacqueline a nce, Charlize was amused when she saw the former ring at her.
Both girls might not be on good terms with each other during their four years in university, but Charlize
barely paid any heed to Jacqueline. Thus, it was Jacqueline alone who got all worked up most of the
time.
The fact that they were always in school limited Jacqueline in what she could do. That was why
Charlize simply watched as thetter made a fool of herself every time there was a trivial conflict
between them.
Obviously, both of them didn’t keep in contact after graduation. The few times they ran into each other
were no more than fleeting encounters.
Even then, Jacqueline didn’t let slip the opportunity to insult Charlize. Regardless of how nonchnt
thetter was, it was difficult not to feel upset.
Therefore, when she heard the girls’ snidements about Jacqueline, Charlize chose to take a page
out of Sophia’s book by simply observing the situation in an aloof manner.

“Do you want to have something to eat?”
Noticing Charlize’s gaze, Spencer furrowed his brows when he trailed its trajectory toward Jacqueline.
He could still remember that thetter had always given Charlize grief.
The thought sparked an icy glint in Spencer’s eyes.
Upon hearing Spencer’s question, Charlize retracted her gaze and shifted it to the rows of snacks
being served. “Let’s just have some cake.”
She couldn’t deny how generous her ssmates were in organizing the event by ordering snacks from
branded shops.
The cake in question was from a recently-opened cake shop in Jadeborough that would sell out every
day.
With such delicious food before her, Charlize had even less reason to care about meaningless affairs.
After picking out two vors that were Charlize’s favorite and pouring a ss of coconut juice, Spencer
filled a small te with snacks before leading Charlize to a small table.
No sooner had they sat down than Jacqueline came over. “It’s been a long time, Spencer.”
Having expected Spencer’s presence, Jacqueline wore a long red dress and thick makeup. The four-
inch heels she was wearing made her look slender and alluring.
Even though Jacqueline was attractive, her beauty was of a different kind whenpared to Charlize.
She was mature and sexy, whereas thetter was sweet and gorgeous.
Charlize was the kind that wouldn’t impress one at first nce but would definitely grow on one. As for
Jacqueline, the converse was true. That was the reason behind the controversy over who was the
campus belle back in the day.
As if Charlize was invisible, Jacqueline hade over with a wine ss in her hand.
However, Spencer threw her a nce before asking with a frosty look, “And you are?”
Spencer naturally recognized Jacqueline, but what was said earlier hadn’t escaped his ears.
Since Jacqueline was rude to Charlize, it was natural for him to return the favor.
Just as he spoke, the girls that walked past them burst intoughter.
The sound of it felt like a dagger that pierced Jacqueline’s heart. Regardless of how shameless she
was, she didn’t dare embarrass herself by continuing the conversation.
Eating her cake quietly, Charlize was filled with delight at the sight of Jacqueline storming off. She then
raised her head to give Spencer the side-eye.
Hmph, don’t think that I have forgotten how she pursued Spencer back then. Serves her right!
As Charlize didn’t want toe in the first ce and Spencer never enjoyed such gatherings, both of
them nned to leave after briefly staying.
However, a few of the guys wanted to talk business with Spencer. Hence, they caught him before the
couple managed to leave.
Charlize naturally didn’t mind, while Spencer hesitated briefly. “Give me ten minutes.”
“Sure.”
Since they were talking about business, Charlize felt it inappropriate to join them.
She subsequently found a corner to settle down in and enjoy her food. If Jacqueline and Katrina hadn’t
come over, she would likely have ended up overeating again.
