Chapter 1041 Unpleasant Reunion With a swift movement, Stella dived into the crowd, enthusiastically greeting the newly arrived grand uncle. She attempted to strike up a pleasant conversation, mentioning how she had eagerly anticipated his arrival at the entrance for quite stime.

“Sorry about Stella, Mrs. Lenoir,” Ariana apologized with an awkward smile at Cherise. “She’s always like this...” Cherise’s expression twisted with confusion and nostalgia as she observed Stella mingling in the crowd.

Discovering that this seemingly pretentious and superficial Stella was actually her former high school classmate was quite a revelation. She couldn’t help but let out a sigh.

Although they once shared the sclassroom, they seemed to belong to entirely different worlds, with contrasting values and perspectives after those years in school.

“Yeah, that makes sense,” Ariana considered, tapping her fingers. Since you're the sage as Sav and Stella, and you all went to Shawbury High School, it’s totally possible you were classmates.” She laughed, continuing, “I never imagined you'd have been in the sclass as them and Steve, my new brother-in-law. I invited you here for a good time, little did we know it would be a high school reunion. Funny how things turn out, right? Oh, by the way, Sav has invited a lot of her ex-classmates here today. Maybe chatting with them will trigger smemories!” Cherise nodded, “I hope so.” Just then, Damien and Blake approached.

“Deep in conversation, I see. What's the gossip?” Damien quizzed.

“Guess what! The bride and groom today are actually my old high school classmates!” Cherise beamed, linking arms with Damien.

“Wouldn't be surprised if the bride was my old BFF,” she teased.

As a result, she gradually lost touch with her high school friends, including Cherise.

“Follow me,” Ariana beckoned Cherise upstairs, leading her to a table where their former classmates were gathered in the corner.

“Please, take a seat. Excusewhile I go greet my family,” Ariana excused herself before departing.

Cherise nodded appreciatively, sharing a meaningful glance with Ariana before she departed.

“Hey, Cherry! Over here!” a man near the staircase called out, recognizing Cherise as he approached and warmly welcoming her.

Afterward, turning to the others at the table, he declared proudly, “See, I told you she’d come! Cherise was Savannah's closest friend in high school. I knew she wouldn't miss this. You guys doubted me!” Fetching two chairs, he gestured for Cherise and Damien to join them. “Since you've been living in the city since graduation, you rarely cback, right? So when I received Savannah's wedding invitation recently, I knew you'd make the trip back for it. And here you are.” Send Gifts
