Scarlett had originally intended to go to Juanton University with Justin on the day of the anniversary celebration, but
Raymond was an alumnus and had been invited as well. He wanted her to go there with him, so eventually she had to go with Raymond.
Jepson Wooden, the principal, when told that Raymond would attend this year's anniversary celebration of Juanton University, suspected that he was too old to hear people correctly.
The Shaw family had made their fortune when Raymond's grandfather was the patriarch. After the Shaw family became rich, Raymond's grandfather had donated a lot of supplies and money to Juanton University.
Afterward his grandfather had died, and Raymond had taken over Teuton and become the head of the Shaw family. Every year Raymond had his secretary wire five million dollars into the account of Juanton University as a donation.
Therefore, every year Jepson had his subordinate send a digital invitation to Raymond's secretary's email box and a paper version of it to the man's office, though Raymond had never accepted it.
But almost everybody seemed to have acquiesced in Raymond's refusal.
However, this year Raymond's secretary had suddenly told them that Raymond happened to be available on that day and would attend the celebration. Not only Jepson but also the director felt a little incredulous.
The black Lexus slowly halted and with that a black-suited man stepped out of the car, who then turned around to look at the passenger and reached out his hand to support Scarlett out of the car.
The couple of top-ranking executives of the university were all momentarily amazed when they saw Raymond in person.
Having realized that this time around Raymond really came, they hurried over to welcome him. "Thank you for making time in your busy schedule to attend our anniversary celebration, Mr. Shaw. It's a great honor for Juanton University!"
Jepson looked at Raymond with a beaming smile. When his eyes rested on Scarlett standing beside Raymond, Jepson was surprised again. "Scarlett?"
Scarlett nodded with a smile. "Mr. Wooden, long time no see." "Yeah, it's been so many years since we last met. You haven't changed a bit."
