Chapter 934: Common denominator
[SUMMIT SCHOOL OF EXCELLENCE]
"I wonder where Penny went," she asked herself, sighing heavily as she stepped out of the gymnasium for a walk.
Nina had been looking for Penny for quite a while now, wanting to ask her if she wanted to walk with her. Getting drunk wasn’t part of Nina’s plans for today. Therefore, since the party inside was getting wild to the point where any parent sending their children to this school would find it unforgivable...
But that was Ray’s problem.
"Even First Brother, Second Brother, and Third Brother are gone," she sighed heavily, realizing she hadn’t seen the Bennets for quite some time now. "Did they manage to sneak out?"
Thinking about it, Nina wouldn’t be surprised if the Bennets had managed to sneak out. It was something they would do. It was even more surprising that they lasted this long at such an event. Even so, she was thankful they stayed because they made this reunion memorable.
As Nina found herself walking toward the path leading to the greenhouse, she stopped. Turning her head, she narrowed her eyes as she saw a figure standing in a corner that was almost hidden, a blind spot.
"Mr. Russel...?" she whispered to herself, furrowing her brows. "What is he doing in there?"
Nina tilted her head to the side, staring at Jonathan. She noticed the stick of a cigarette clipped between his fingers. However, it wasn’t lit for some reason. Lifting her eyes at him, she pondered whether to approach. When she saw him talking on the phone, smiling, she decided not to.
Nina turned and left, telling herself to mind her own business. She was grateful for Jonathan, but at the end of the day, she didn’t want to appear overly grateful. Besides, people might misunderstand their relationship. Even though people said it was Patricia’s dirty mind that gave meaning to Nina’s relationship with her client, she knew it wasn’t just Patricia. People liked to assume and give meaning to everything.
