Chapter 290 Graduation


    They received their graduation photos earlier, in their caps and gowns. In the afternoon, when they met up at the pool hall, Zoren proudly showed off the photos.


    "Vio, look at how handsome your brother is! Hahaha."


    Violeta took the graduation photos. She looked at both the ss photo and one of the four group photos.


    In the photo of the four of them, Hayden and Zoren stood in the middle, with Jasper on the left and Liam on the right, with the stone at Tnd University''s West Gate behind them, engraved with the school motto.


    All four of them looked very handsome and carried themselves with an air of sophistication.


    After graduation, they wouldn''t see each other daily like before. They were all heading in different directions for their future careers.


    The young men who had entered university at age eighteen were finally about to stand on their own.


    Violeta''s gaze lingered on each of their faces. Her gaze paused slightly longer on Hayden''s before handing the photos back to Zoren. "Okay, okay, you''re the most handsome."


    This time, Kaylee hade along with Violeta. She also looked at the photos as she leaned on Violeta''s shoulder. Her expression was one of envy. "That''s great! You guys are graduating, but we still have two more years."


    As Zoren put the photos away, he said, "What''s there to envy? When you''re studying, you can still ask your family for money. Once you graduate, without any skills, you can''t just go ask for money from home without getting scolded."


    Violeta smiled calmly and said, "Don''t worry, bro. Just keep rescuing animals with them. Loving Home''s brand will definitely take off in the future!" Zorenughed, "What? Are you a goddess? Do your words hold that much power?"


    Violeta admitted, "Of course! If you don''t believe me,e and pay your respects. Just wait a few years and see if I''m right!"


    When Jasper heard this, he gave Zoren a yful kick. "You heard her; go pay your respects!"


    Unprepared, Zoren staggered forward. He crashed his forehead against Kaylee''s as she stood up from the couch.


    "Ouch!"


    Kaylee immediately clutched her forehead.


    Zoren''s forehead hurt too, but he endured it and turned to re at Jasper. "You dog!"


    "Are you okay, Kaylee?" Zoren asked, concerned.


    Kaylee waved it off and said, "I''m fine."


    Violeta nced at Kaylee''s reddened forehead and said, "It''s all red. You need to take responsibility. It''s going to swell up soon."


    Zoren protested, "I''ve got a bump too. Jasper should take responsibility!"


    Jasper quickly put down his cue and walked away nonchntly, pretending not to hear.


    Liam took a sip of his drink. Heughed, "Haha."


    Hayden had just finished a phone call by the window. He returned to see Liamughing. Hayden nced at Violeta and asked, "What''s so funny?"


    Liam pointed to Jasper and then to Zoren, exining with augh.


    "Jas kicked Zoren, who then bumped his head into Kaylee''s. It was hrious. You should have seen it, Hade."


    Kaylee couldn''t handle teasing; her face turned as red as her forehead.


    She blushed.


    Violeta continued to tease Kaylee and said, "Does that count as a bow?"


    "Huh? What bow?"


    "Of course, it''s the bow during the wedding ceremony!"


    "No, it''s not!"


    Kaylee''s face turned even redder. She hadn''t thought about it at all.


    Violetaughed. She noticed that Kaylee was genuinely shy and stopped teasing her.


    Hayden noticed Zoren''s slight difort; he handed him a cue and said, "Stop showing off the photos and y pool."


    Two hours passed.


    Violeta joined in for a couple of rounds.


    When it was time to eat, they all went for fondue.


    This meal was a final farewell to their school life.


    After graduation, Hayden was


    headed to Newham for work andet


    might not return to Quinston for several years unless his job required a transfer. N?velDrama.Org (C) content.


    Jasper felt like he hadn''t had enough fun. He nned to spend two years in Wiltonshire before returning to take over the family business.


    Liam, who once shared Jasper''s


    idea of going abroad, now had toet


    step up and adapt to his


    velhet


    responsibilities at Ridge Group due to family circumstances.


    Zoren pinned his hopes on Loving Home''s website. If the website seeded, he could dy returning home to take over the family business.


    At the end of the meal, they raised their sses for a toast.


    "To sess!"


    "To a bright future!"


    "To early promotions!"


    They continue to toast with each other.


    Everyone''s faces were lit up with smiles.


    Violeta paid for the meal. She used the opportunity to repay Hayden for helping her suppress a trending topic earlier.


    The evening wind was strong. Kaylee had to return to her dorm to catch a bus home the next morning.


    Violeta suggested to Zoren, saying, "Bro, you should take Kaylee back."


    Zoren nced at Hayden. Then he put on his motorcycle gloves and handed another helmet to Kaylee.


    "Alright, then Hade can take you hometer.


    "I''m leaving now. Bye!"


    He drove off with Kaylee.


    Jasper and Liam shared a ride back.


    Hayden hadn''t driven, so Violeta intended to call a cab. Instead, he called his driver. They waited by the roadside.


    Violeta stood next to Hayden. Her


    height only reached his shoulder


    She wore a bright red sweatshirt and


    stuffed her hands into its front pocket. Violeta tilted her head and asked him curiously.
