Cindy’s expression was nothing but arrogant, clutching onto Edward’s arm as the both of them sat down. Edward had a high and mighty air about him as well.

Wilbur frowned, irritation flaring in his chest.

It was clear that Cindy had brought her boyfriend along just to show off. It was a gathering, not a show- and–tell.

Just then, Cindy smiled and said, “Come on, guys, stop staring! Edward might be someone of status, but he’s my boyfriend. There’s no need to act so awkwardly.

The words sounded polite, but the implication was less so.

Everyone was speechless. In the end, someone got up and poured everyone a glass of wine. Those who did not drink got tea instead.

Everyone raised their glasses, and so did Wilbur, Nancy and a few female classmates only drank tea.

After the first drink, everyone picked up their cutlery and began chatting among themselves.
