The Indifferent Ex-Husband Heartstrings in the Mall of Fate

Chapter 219

Chapter 219

A few heads turned at the sound and caught sight of Sophia and Ivan stepping out together.

Sophia happened to look up too and saw Brandon standing opposite Zachary. She hesitated for a split second and her smile stiffened slightly.

Brandon gave her a glance, then shifted his gaze to Ivan by her side, his expression cooling off. He looked away without a word.

Kent couldn't help but sneak a peek at Ivan and Sophia, feeling a hint of worry creeping in. Don's attention was all on Ivan, calling out with uncertainty, "Ivan?" He hadn't expected to bump into Ivan here.

"Ivan's one of my students too." Zachary explained with a chuckle, "He graduated three years ahead of Sophia."

Before Don made any response, Ivan and Sophia had already walked up close to them.

Don slapped Ivan on the shoulder with a chuckle, "Man, how come you never mentioned you were Mr. Gardner's student?"

Ivan replied, "You never asked, did you?"

Don was at a loss for words. They weren't from the same university, the same department, or the same field of study; who would go out of their way to ask, "Hey, who was your college mentor?"

"So, you all know each other already."

Zachary said with a smile, "That's great, saves me the trouble of introductions."

But he didn't miss the awkwardness between Ivan and Brandon and went ahead with the introductions, "This is the President of the Starlight Group, Mr. Brandon Crawley."

"And this is Sophia's senior, Ivan Evert."

Brandon looked at Ivan and greeted him politely, "Hello."

Ivan returned the greeting with a simple "Hello," not adding much more.

Zachary and Jolin had other guests to attend to and couldn't stick around to chat, so he turned to Sophia, "Sophia, could you entertain Mr. Crawley and Mr. Dempsey for a bit? Jolin and I need to go over there."

Sophia nodded, "Sure."

She looked towards Brandon, whose handsome face was a bit cold, "Why don't you guys have a seat over there?"
