Kevin began to introduce her hurriedly. “She just returned from her studies in M Nation. She has two PhDs and is fluent in five languages. She's extremely skilled in many areas.”

“Do you remember Hazel, Danrique?” Gerard said with a chuckle. “You used to turn down the other kids who came to play with you, but you would always talk to Hazel.”

“I vaguely remember that, yes.”

Danrique looked toward the stage and his cold, indifferent stare became one of admiration.

Francesca began to feel a little bit unhappy. Before this, when Eva tried to flirt with Danrique, he hadn't even looked at her.
