Susan Shelby could not help feeling embarrassed when Isabelle Shelby mentioned the matter. "Those were all blind conjectures I made when I was young.”
"Tee-hee.” Isabelle could not help sniggering. "I could tell that you were very serious about it at the time.
You said you were going to marry the boy when you were older. Afterward, you cried for a few days when h e moved away."
Susan could not help letting out two coughs. "Those were all past events when I was young.”
"True that." Isabelle said, "That boy came from a rather wealthy family actually. However, I believe that he still can't compare to Julian regardless of how wealthy he was."
Susan smiled.
She had never taken a person's wealth into consideration at all times.
"Speaking of which, I still remember that both of you made an agreement to meet again twenty years later." Isabelle asked in excitement, "If I'm not mistaken, the date which both of you agreed on is close, right?"
At the talk of this, a joyous look flashed past Susan’s eyes. "Hmm, it's going to take place in one week."
She did not ask how Isabelle knew about this because she was extremely close to Isabelle when they were young. She used to speak her mind to Isabelle on everything related to that little boy.
"Are you planning to go?" asked Isabelle.
"I'm going, of course." Susan smiled so wide her eyes narrowed into slits. "It's a rendezvous for us."
Susan could not help anticipating the day beyond her control.
She was really curious about how the little boy in the past looked like now.
Isabelle had a strange gaze. "Are you not worried that Mr. Shaw will get jealous?"
"It's just a friend from my childhood. Julian is not such a narrow-minded person." Susan chuckled and said, "Who can really take a matter that happened when we were so young seriously? I'm only going to meet a friend that I lost long ago."
"True that." Isabelle nodded. A subtle glint flashed past the depths of her eyes.
She could still remember that little boy now like it was yesterday.
In that tiny county, the boy was actually living in a private villa and he was taken care of by over ten servants around the house.
The expenditure on his food and clothing was ineffably expensive even when she thought about it now. 1

She could tell that the boy must have a shocking family background.
She wondered how Susan was always so lucky that she could encounter those rich men?
Susan and Isabelle were chatting leisurely when Julian suddenly walked in through the door.
Julian frowned in a manner that was not easily discernible upon seeing Isabelle.
"Julian." Susan said smilingly, "Isa is here to have a chat with me. I insisted that she stay for lunch."
"It’s fine as long as you're happy.” Julian smiled and appeared carefree.
"Chairman Shaw." Isabelle cracked into a sweet, shy smile at Julian.
Julian shifted his gaze as soon as he took one glance.
He said nonchalantly, “Susie, I still have some matters to attend to in the study room. You should accompany Ms. Shelby."
"Alright," answered Susan.
Julian went upstairs with an apathetic expression.
