Chapter 201: Jared Comes Through the Snow
“Is there a problem with Julia wearing a sweater and high–waisted pants? Look at you again. Are
embarrassed to say it? It’s damn winter, making her wear a hollow knitted sweater. While
clothes have a hole that makes me see the pink bra you are wearing.”

Maddie scanned her eyes at Lorelie’s body and continued, “You even wore skirts covering your hips, a short that makes you see your butt and buttocks. And why the hell are you embarrassed saying Julia wore it? Do you want to bully her for having no friends at her side? Or did you bully her because she had a bad stepmother and didn’t even hurt her father?”
One of Lorelei’s classmates stood up, looking at Maddie. “We are all classmates here, Maddie. Is it necessary for you to tell that to her?”
Maddie laughed her ass out loud. “You speak harshly of Julia, but I can’t counter it. You even use the word classmates to restrain us. I didn’t even mention it when I spoke to you.”
That time, Maddie started to regret having Julia at her side. She shouldn’t have asked her. Maddie thought, ‘Classmates, my ass! They are all demons and attack Julia with hurtful words without even minding how Julia feels about it. That’s too much!‘
When that lingered in her mind, Maddie blinked twice and held Julia’s hand. “We gotta go. Being with these so–called classmates won’t even be a good thing!”
With a nod, Julia responded, “This is far from the class reunion I foresee. We seem to gather here not to be united again, instead a personal criticism of me. If only I had known this would happen, I’d surely not come here!”
The other students present there seemed to be unhappy with their words and did not even expect them to disappoint them.
With that, Simon stood up. He brought his eyes to Lorelei and others who already had unfriendly
eyes.
“Come on, guys! Julia is our high school classmate, and no one can deny that! She became one of my important friends. What you just said was only baseless gossip. Many can say you may hear or see, but all may not be true. Besides, Julia became our high school classmate for three years. Didn’t you even know what kind of person she was in that span? Isn’t it clear on your end?” Simon couldn’t help but express his frustration.
Simon cleared his throat and continued, “I can recall how kind and friendly Julia was. There will be no way she can do such a thing, and if you continue to target her, you’re also targeting me!”
Those words released by Simon seemed to be speaking on behalf of Julia. As long as he was careful, no one could determine his meaning.
With eyebrows raised, Maddie elbowed Julia and stared at her with a smile painted on her lips. As Julia glanced at Maddie back, she glanced at how she had a teasing expression. Luckily, she was glad she didn’t bring Jared. Otherwise, their private room would be more chaotic than that.
Meanwhile, Simon became the department manager of the Brooks Corporation, making him a limitless future. Simon must have been the only one qualified for that position. Someday, maybe he would think of joining Simon.
As Simon–came back from his senses, he glanced at Julia. He said, “Nah, don’t take all of those words seriously. We rarely gather together here, and I was lucky to get a promotion. So, why don’t you join me and have a drink to celebrate?”
Well, Julia wasn’t oblivious to what Simon’s real intention was. Even though she hadn’t directly

admitted it to her, she pretended to be unaware of seeing those signs and acted dumb.
“Congratulations!” Julia smiled, picking up the wine glass and raising it. “You are not only lucky,
you have strength.”
but
“Thank you!” Simon replied, feeling over the moon with Julia’s compliment, yet he kept grinning secretly.
On the other hand, Lorelei, who sat across her, rolled her eyes without saying a word. Like Julia, Lorelei knew his feelings for Julia and couldn’t understand why he had fallen for her.
At the same, the other female classmate next to her glimpsed, seeing Lorelei’s watch on her wrist, making her more envious.
“Wow, is that watch bought by your husband?” The female classmate inquired, almost making her eyes twinkle. “If my memory serves me right, that’s worth five or probably a hundred dollars, right?”
When everyone heard that, Lorelei became the center of attention. She roamed her gaze around those envious looks on her.
With a smile, she said, “Yes! Our family doesn’t even know how to live at all. I told my husband not to buy it for me since I don’t care about these luxuries, but he doesn’t care and still bought it for me.”
After Lorelei said those, she brought her eyes to Julia. She observed Julia’s beautiful face but snorted coldly in her heart.
‘So what about being so pretty?‘ Lorelei thought. ‘Look how her husband is and dotes on her. Look at you now. You’re being dumped by someone who used to love her for so many years. The difference is seen almost every day.‘
Meanwhile, when Julia saw in her peripheral view that Lorelei was staring, she glanced back. For her, the less money they had, the more he showed off. Like her, her family had a mine, except for Lincoln and the other brothers, no one knew. It.
“I envy you, Lorelei, and it somewhat irritated me,” said the female classmate. She still glanced at Lorelei’s wrist, full of envy. “You already have a rich and handsome husband. How can he treat you that much? My God! I want to find a good man like him!”
Before Lorelei could react, Maddie had already said something.
“Well, you never met Julia’s husband. Her husband is handsome among all, making all heads turn when he walks and can kill all the young male idols in the entertainment industry. Her husband is good at Julia, too. I have never seen a man treat a woman like that.”
When Maddie said that, everyone turned their heads at her.
Yet, Lorelei burst out laughing. “I have to admit that the president of the Ross Corporation is more handsome than my husband and has more honey. But the only problem is that Carter now has nothing to do with Julia.” She looked at everyone. “Who among you here doesn’t even know about Julia and Carter’s shit? Aren’t you talking nonsense with your eyes open?”
Other people around the room secretly laughed at it, even showing ridicule on their faces and contempt for Julia.
“Hell! I’m not talking about that damn scumbag!” Maddie reacted when Carter was mentioned.
“Oh, did I hear it correctly? It’s not him who you are referring to?” Lorelei was astounded and then looked at Julia. “Don’t tell me you are with another man, Julia?”

Everyone was quite interested in who that man was.
Among all the most interested people in that private room, Simon was the only one who became anxious, staring straight at Julia’s eyes, with his eyes full of urgency to know all the details. Meanwhile, Julia moved her gaze around and slightly nodded her head. “Yes, that’s right.” With that, Lorelei also laughed again. “Julia, it’s been years since I haven’t seen you personally. Have you become that humorous? You made me laugh. If you have another man, in that case, I will take your surname instead.”
After she spoke, there was a knock on the door. Moments later, the door was pushed open the outside.

Upon seeing it was a man who suddenly appeared, Lorelei’s eyes widened, and she was astounded by seeing his face.
