For a while, Penny was rendered speechless. "You aren't sure about inviting Ray, but you're going to hold it at the place that he runs? Don't you know he's the headmaster there now?"

"Hehe. I know, but the Summit School of Excellence is a memorable place. If we're going to hold a reunion, isn't it better to do it where it was founded?" Lily argued in a knowing tone. "Anyway, I'm going to prepare now. I'll send you the invite list. Check it when you have some free time today. Ciao~"

Penny's response was a simple hum, and she heard the call end immediately. "As if I'm going. I'm sure Mark will beg me not to, as well," she murmured, not planning to attend that reunion. After all, she didn't start it—she didn't even want that fan club to begin with.

Why would she put any effort into it?

A second later, Penny heard her phone ring. Glancing at it, she reluctantly held the phone to her face and sent Lily a short reply. Knowing she wouldn't have time today until her body recovered enough energy, she casually checked the long list Lily had sent her.

"This list is even longer than a class reunion," she whispered, arching a brow as she noticed the list was sorted by grade and section. When her eyes fell on the Star Section list, her brows furrowed.

"Cassandra?" her brow arched slowly. "Didn't Finn say Jonathan and this woman are dating?"

For sure, Mark wouldn't like the news Penny was about to give him. But now, there was a reason for Penny to attend the reunion.
