Chapter 672

"How on earth do you know me? I don't remember ever seeing you!" Miley was even more astonished.

"Well, I was a student at Blue Ridge University as well, just that when you were in your senior year, I was still in prep. We even snuck into your graduation party. You sang 'Trouble is a Friend' that night, and you just made quite the impression on me. The moment you walked in just now, I recognized you. I figured you might miss the old college days, so I brought this chocolate over for you to try."

Violet had a knack for quickly bridging gaps with people. In just a few words, she managed to close the distance with Miley. But it wasn't just flattery; it was the kind of genuine sincerity that made you feel really comfortable.
