Eva’s voice brought Rowan back to reality.
“Go with your classmate,” Rowan replied somewhat stiffly. But his eyes were fixed on Minerva.
Although Eva didn’t know who Minerva was, women had a natural intuition, and she clearly sensed the change in Rowan’s attitude when he saw Minerva.
After speaking, Rowan quickly walked over to Minerva, and at the same time, noticed Skylar.
Skylar was reading, but when she sensed someone standing in front of her and Minerva, she looked up. When she saw Rowan, she was momentarily stunned. What a coincidence.
“You two just got to the restaurant too?” Rowan asked.
Minerva smiled and politely replied, “Just a few minutes ago.” She was courteous as if facing a stranger or just an ordinary friend.
Sensing that, Rowan felt bitter inside. “Skylar, you can call me if anything comes up while you’re in Jipsburg. By the way, I’ve found some information about Ned. I’ll send them to you
later.”
He suspected that Ned might actually be Joe. It was almost impossible for two people to look so identical unless they were twins. And it was unlikely that someone else who looked exactly like Joe would appear in their social circle. [1
Skylar nodded and said, “Okay.”
Then, Rowan glanced at Minerva again. “I heard you got engaged. Congratulations.”
“Thank you,” Minerva continued to smile.
Rowan felt even more uncomfortable, a sense of suffocation. “Don’t forget to send me an invitation to the wedding.”
“Of course, I also hope you find your own happiness.” Minerva’s words were particularly
sincere.
The past was like smoke. After all, it had been more than three years and she had completely moved on. She had found someone who truly loved her. So, the past should remain in the past.
Minerva used to hate Rowan, but now she no longer did.
Rowan laughed mockingly at himself and simply said, “I wish you the best.”
For someone selfish like him, happiness didn’t matter to him. It was enough that he could fee.
content.
And he was content now, with young ladies around him who were good at making him happy.

After speaking, he turned and left.
Eva, seeing that Rowan left without a word, looked puzzled. As she followed Rowan out of the restaurant, she kept glancing back at Minerva and Skylar.
Who were they? Why did Rowan seem like a different person as soon as he saw them? He was perfectly fine just a moment ago,
Why did his attitude change so suddenly?
“Mr. Jakeman, didn’t we agree to have lunch at this restaurant? Why-”
“I’ll take you somewhere else.”
“Oh… Okay.”
Skylar withdrew her gaze from Rowan in the distance and then turned back to Minerva. Rowan seems like a different person these past few years.”
