"Really?" Phoebe asked somewhat eagerly.
"Yes, I don't need to lie to you. Charles's company was pretty great now. He can invite Forrest to come."
Phoebe thought about it and said, "Well, I'll think about it then."
"Don't be hesitate! Just come! It's been a long time since we've separated." The female classmate said, "It's a deal. I signed up for you, there would be many activities then. But I think you'd better not bring family members, after all... hey, you know! Well, I'll hang up, cause I'm going to contact other students."
After hanging up the phone, Phoebe looked hesitant. She was indeed a little moved. First of all, she had not seen these junior school schoolmates for a long time. Now, it was great for someone to organize a class reunion. She should go and participate in it. After all, she had nothing to do the day after tomorrow.
Moreover, most importantly, if Forrest would be here and sing, it would be too tempting!
Phoebe liked Forrest very much. Of course, it wasn't about the love feeling between men and women, but she was his fangirl. She liked the TV series "Like a Dream". and Forrest played a role in the drama. Strictly speaking, she liked the role of "Forrest" in "Like a Dream", not him.
Of course, Forrest was very handsome. If she could get an autograph, it would be great.
After thinking about it, Phoebe decided to attend the reunion the day after tomorrow.
As for the name Charles, she had no feelings about it. After so many years, she believed that Charles had long forgotten her.
Back in junior school, she had an ambiguous relationship with Charles. Of course, it wasn't a real relationship. At that time, they were very pure and naive, and they were the best students in the class. She and Charles always got the highest score in turn, so there were rumors among the students about them.
But at that time, she and Charles did have a good feeling about each other. Now that so many years had passed, she had long forgotten all about them.
The day came. Phoebe thought about it and asked Tom, "Are you free tonight?"
Tom said, "Yes. What's wrong?"
Phoebe said, "I have a junior school reunion tonight. The venue is in West City. Do you want to come over together?"
Tom looked surprised and asked doubtfully, "You always don't want to take me to your class reunion. Why this time..."
Phoebe's face turned cold and she said angrily, "Okay, forget it."
"Nonono! Why not? I must go!" Tom said hurriedly.
Tom knew the nature of such a class reunion best. It was an opportunity for good classmates to show off. Phoebe was so beautiful that she would definitely be drunk or even taken advantage of. Tom must go and protect her.
Phoebe unconsciously smiled but it disappeared in less than a second. She continued to look cold. "You can go with me, but you have to listen to me. Don't talk more, don't eat without my permission, and don't embarrass me again, okay?"
"I know." Tom quickly nodded and agreed.
"Then come and pick me up from work today. Let's go together." Phoebe said.
Phoebe looked Tom up and down and asked, "Where did you get this suit?"
Tom spun around and said with a smile, "I just bought it. How was it? Isn't it very handsome? The whole set cost me almost a thousand dollars."
However, Phoebe did not smile. Instead, she became cold and stared at Tom. There was even some disgust in her eyes. She said, "You're not handsome at all. You're so ugly!"
"Ah?" Tom was stunned. Why would she say that? There was no reason! He was dressed in the image of the chairman of ZQ Company because he thought Phoebe was interested in the identity of that man. He thought Phoebe would definitely like him dressed like him, too.
Phoebe did see the shadow of the chairman of ZQ Company from Tom. In the past, she didn't find that when he was in casual clothes. Now that Tom was wearing a suit, she felt that Tom and the chairman of ZQ Company were too similar.
Looking at Tom like this, Phoebe felt that the chairman of ZQ Company had been violated. How could he have the right to be like that man?
In her opinion, the chairman of ZQ Company was the most perfect man in the world, but Tom was just trash. There was no comparison between the two!
"Why? Isn't it good for me to dress like this? It is your class reunion. If I dress a little more handsome, I will make you proud." Tom said in confusion. He was a little aggrieved.
Phoebe's eyes were still very cold and even more disgusted. She came up and took off his suit jacket. "I want you to take it off. Take it off. There's no such nonsense!"
"Okay, okay, I'll take it off. Don't talk..." Tom said hurriedly. He felt that Phoebe was too abnormal today. He thought, "Did she not like the chairman of ZQ Company anymore? So it was annoying to see me dressed like him? If that's the case, it's good."
