After all, if they were lucky enough to be noticed by the little princess, they would have a smooth sailing-career in the entertainment industry, gaining both fame and fortune.
“Could that person just now be some kind of celebrity?” someone speculated.
“Unlikely, most celebrities can’t afford such a car.” someone else said.
“Could it be an heir of some wealthy family?”
“But if a wealthy heir like that is so handsome, they would have been trending already.”
Various discussions were going on, while Harley sat in Lornell’s car, trying to guess why he suddenly came to her school today.
“Did you see me in the restaurant at lunch today?” Lornell asked.
“Yes,” Harley replied.
“Why didn’t you say hello?” he asked.
“Your classmates were there, it wouldn’t have been appropriate for me to approach and greet you,”
Harley explained.
“What’s inappropriate about it?” he countered.
She hesitated for a moment, then bit her lip lightly. “Alright, I understand. Next time I see you, I’ll come and say hello.”
If she didn’t mention their engagement and just introduced herself as his friend, she should be able to greet him. He probably meant that too.
“By the way, how did you end up with Tina?” Lornell asked again.
“What’s so strange about me being with Tina?” Harley retorted.
“She lost her memory, so you shouldn’t have any connection with her. Isn’t it strange that you had a meal with her at the restaurant?” Lornell said.
“Tina asked me out for a meal today and asked me some questions about your family,” Harley said.
“My family?” Lornell raised an eyebrow.
“She asked if I knew anything about the Quentin family, and I just mentioned some things that everyone knows. But later on, we talked about recovering her memory. Oh, by the way, can the Quentin family help Tina recover her memory?”
Lornell pondered for a moment and said, “If there is a forceful stimulation, perhaps it will be possible.”
“So, Tina’s memory…” Harley was very excited.
“However, if there is forceful stimulation, there are risks and potential damage to the brain’s nerves. So, it’s not a very good method,” Lornell said.
Harley’s eyes dimmed. “Even if someone from the Quentin family intervenes, there would still be risks?”
“Even if the Quentin family’s medical skills are excellent, it doesn’t mean there is no risk. Medicine is never a hundred percent certain,” Lornell replied.
“I just hope Tina can regain her memory. If she does, maybe there’s still hope for her marriage with
Chandler,” Harley said.
“When did you become so close to Tina?” Lornell asked.
Because Tina and Harley had a 5-year age difference, they didn’t often play together when they were younger.
Although they frequently had family gatherings due to the close relationships between their families,
Harley mostly played with Trista, who was closer in age, and Jasmine.
“But I have a good relationship with Tina too. Plus, if it wasn’t for Tina’s engagement to Chandler, which piqued your curiosity, we wouldn’t have gotten engaged,” Harley said.
This matter was something she accidentally overheard adults discussing when she grew up.
However, after hearing it, she felt a sense of relief.
Yeah, otherwise why would he have proposed to her?
At that time, she was just a 7-year-old child, and he was only 3. Their first meeting couldn’t even be called harmonious.
But he voluntarily proposed to her, partly out of compassion, wanting to save her, and partly out of curiosity about what it feels like to be engaged to someone.
It was just a child’s curiosity that bound the fate of the two of them together.
Lornell didn’t deny it, which made Harley feel uncomfortable. She then gave a bitter smile. Wasn’t this already clear?
Even though they had been engaged and spent so many years together, he actually didn’t have any feelings for her.
“By the way, where are we going?” Harley asked curiously.
“Since we didn’t make plans for lunch, let’s say hello in the evening,” Lornell said.
It wasn’t until half an hour later that Harley finally understood what Lornell meant by that.
Looking at the medical students in front of her, Harley felt very embarrassed and unsure of what to do.
On the other hand, Lornell confidently introduced everyone, “This is my fiancée, Harley. These people are my classmates from medical school.”
Lornell began to introduce each of those classmates.
The group of classmates stared at Harley in astonishment. After a while, someone asked, “Lornell, you have a fiancée?”
“Yes,” Lornell replied flatly.
“When did that happen?” someone else asked.
“It’s something from our childhood, our engagement, it was decided when we were young,” said
Lornell.
“So, it’s like an arranged marriage by parents? What era is this? How can they casually arrange an engagement like that?” a voice rang out, it was the school beauty that Harley saw being teased at noon.
Eva was the one most affected by Lornell’s words just now.
Because she’s beautiful, she has always been adored by everyone.
And because she comes from a good family, her standards are naturally high. There are not many men in school who can catch her eye.
Lornell is one of them.
Although she doesn’t know much about Lornell’s family background, from his clothing brands, the car he drives, and his daily spending habits, she can naturally guess that he must come from a wealthy family.
Someone who comes from a good family has exceptional medical skills, and is praised by many professors naturally makes her heart flutter. And most importantly, Lornell’s appearance is undeniably attractive, his face alone has won the hearts of many women in the medical school, even without any other additional conditions!
Someone even created a ranking of the most heartthrob male students in the school.
And Lornell is in first place.
As for Eva, if she likes men, she naturally likes the best one!
Therefore, when the classmates teased, she didn’t refute, but instead hoped to take the opportunity to establish a relationship with Lornell.
But she didn’t expect Lornell to suddenly bring a fiancée.
At this moment, when Eva said this, those who usually had a good relationship with Eva began to agree.
“Eva is right, this is an arranged marriage by parents!”
“Is this just a joke between the two families? Isn’t it supposed to be about freedom in love now?”
“Lornell, you didn’t actually take this engagement seriously, did you?”
These words made Harley feel inexplicably ironic.
Especially that girl named Eva, her gaze towards her made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
“I did take it seriously,” Lornell said calmly, “this engagement was decided by our two families, both families have already approved it, is it still a joke?”
Everyone was stunned, they didn’t expect Lornell to take this matter seriously.
“But even if you’re engaged, you’re still being forced,” Eva said indignantly, “how can your family violate your wishes and arrange an engagement for you?”
“Who said I was being forced?” Lornell said, “This engagement was my decision, it was me who decided to get engaged to Harley, that’s why our families arranged the engagement!”
These words once again left everyone stunned.
Lornell decided?
And Eva looked even more incredulous.
“Alright, let’s end the introduction here,” Lornell asked Harley to sit down and handed her cutlery, “eat whatever you want, if there’s nothing you want, then let’s order some dishes you like.”
“No need!” Harley said, “I’ll just eat what’s already been ordered.”
She said that and proactively started eating the food in front of her.
Lornell didn’t say anything else.
After the meal, Harley could hardly remember what she ate, she only remembered that Lornell helped her cut the steak and poured her a drink.
At this moment, her mind was filled with the fact that he introduced her to his classmates.
He directly told his classmates that he has a fiancée!”
The feeling of joy flows through her veins like a stream, spreading throughout her body.
After finishing their meal, Lornell accompanied Harley back home.
On the way back, Harley asked, “Why did you suddenly introduce me to your classmates today?”
“You’re my fiancée, it’s convenient to use you as a shield against their gossip,” Lornell casually replied.
“Otherwise, they would constantly try to match me with someone else!”
Harley suddenly felt a sense of disappointment. His words were like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the excitement she had felt.
It turned out that he didn’t really want to introduce her to his classmates. Her existence was just a shield.
“Do you not like that girl named Eva?” She bit her lip and asked.
