Chapter 467

Anthea nodded slightly, then said, "Mom, I just ordered a ride. You wait here, and I'll go grab us a couple of drinks from that café up ahead. What flavor would you like?"

"Red bean tea is fine," Carole replied.

"Got it." Anthea dashed off towards the café.

As soon as Anthea left, a young man, around seventeen or eighteen, approached from behind. "Excuse me, ma'am, you dropped your wallet."

Carole looked up, momentarily taken aback upon seeing the young man's face.

He looked so familiar.

Then, it hit her. This was the top student from Capital City, the one she'd seen on TV recently.

He resembled someone from her past so much.

His eyes and brows were just like his.

Suddenly reminded of that person, Carole felt a pang of nostalgia.

Could this young man really be his child?
