Teacher Zhang looked at their clasped hands and teased, "Are the two of you hitting it off so well as if you've found kindred spirits?"
It was then that Mandel Thompson released Hugo's hand, adding, "Indeed, it feels like we should have met each other sooner."
Should have met each other sooner?
Hugo immediately withdrew her hand and narrowed her eyes.
She had not expected that Isla Astir's boyfriend was not only a dark horse but also a major womanizer.
Teacher Zhang said with a smile, "In that case, you two must have a few more drinks together at the dinner table."
"Certainly."
Soon, it was time to eat.
Mandel Thompson and Isla Astir accompanied Teacher Zhang at the main table.
Augusta and Erin were seated at the next table.
Augusta picked up his glass, lowered his voice, and said to Erin, "Let's go offer a toast to your classmate."
Erin was still a bit confused.
Go and offer a toast to Isla Astir?
Suck up to her?
That was absolutely impossible!
