A Love Rekindled (Nancy and Bruce) novel Chapter 73

Bruce and Cindy were sitting right across us.

Everyone there was big shots, and as an unimportant coder, I knew I was there to blend into the background.

Soon, Stack, who I was waiting for, appeared with the person in charge. Their seats were arranged next to Richard and close to Bruce and Cindy.

Cindy also recognized who Stack was. So, she took the opportunity to hand her name card to him.

It wasn't anything out of the ordinary. After all, world-class software engineers like Stack weren't easy to come by. However, it made Cindy look a bit anxious by how eager she was.

Thankfully, Stack wasn't a rude person.

After taking over the name card, he politely scanned it before handing it to his assistant.

At least he didn't embarrass Cindy.

Cindy was overjoyed. Then, she used a less-than-perfect foreign language to engage in a conversation about an ongoing game development project.

At this, Stack seemed a bit interested. However, he soon changed the topic and asked, "I heard Mr. Fowler bring this up before. I heard that the software engineer in charge of building the front and back end is called Nancy Fisher?"

It was obvious that Cindy froze upon hearing this. But I didn't expect that Stack would bring me up either.

Meanwhile, Douglas was quick to react, and he took the initiative to greet Stack, "The Nancy you want to know is right here."

Stack shot me an inquiring look.

Naturally, I wouldn't give up on such a good opportunity. So, I enthusiastically greeted him, "Stack, my name is Nancy. Nice to meet you."

Stack eyed me up and down. And after pondering for a moment, he started, "So, you're Nancy. I didn't expect to see you here two years later."

I was a bit shocked. "Do you still remember me, Stack?" We'd exchanged a lot of emails regarding my admission matters.

Stack spoke confidently, "Of course. I was sad when you gave up enrolling in Jadara University. You have a lot of potential in software building."

His words caused everyone to focus their attention on me, and I felt embarrassed.

Not many knew that I gave up going to Jadara University, and everyone's gazes toward me changed when Stack said that.

This was especially the case for Bruce too.
