SWNOVELS Chapter 96
Chapter 96
Both Frederic and Tristan were never my soulmates. In this lifetime, it was only because of my rebirth that some butterfly effects occurred, leading to their unexpected encounters with me. I can now accept that everything has returned to its rightful course.
In the early winter season, the weather became colder and colder. I was wearing a white woolen coat, sitting by the window, watching the falling leaves outside.
The phone vibrated. Greta sent a message in the group chat: “Girls, it’s snowing! Let’s go out and play!”
Cecelia sent a crying face emoji and replied, “I wanted to go too, but in a couple of days, my company is having a celebration party, and I am in charge!”
Greta replied, “Did your father treat you as a daughter or as an employee? Go protest!”
Janessa replied, “Celia, come on. Work hard to become a strong woman and support the three of us in the future. I support you.”
Greta replied, “Jan, Syl, come on. Let’s go to the bar first and see if there are any handsome guys. If there are, we can invite a few of them to play an escape room game, and then go out for dinner. After that, we’ll just go home and sleep. Perfect!”
Her plan seemed quite perfect, and I was a little tempted. Besides, staying alone at home was boring. So, I replied, “I’ll go. Send me the address. I’ll leave right away.”
Janessa also replied, “I will go too!”
At this moment, a small snowflake drifted onto the glass window and quickly melted. It turned out that it was really snowing. I grabbed a beige scarf and put it on, then set off to the bar.
As soon as I entered the bar, I felt that it was very warm inside. Janessa arrived almost at the same time as me. We found Greta, who was already chatting with handsome
guys.
“Why are you wearing such thick clothes? Take off your jackets quickly. There’s a dance event later. The beautiful ladies who go on stage to dance can get a free bottle of red wine. The person with the highest popularity can even receive a half-year discount coupon for drinks at 20% off!” Greta was extremely excited and reached out to grab mine and Janessa’s jackets.
What activity? I was confused, but I still took off my coat and put it aside.
There was a colorful stage not far away, where several graceful women were swaying to the music. A group of excited people gathered around the stage. The scene was very noisy.
I glanced around and immediately spotted a familiar face, Ruben.
Speaking of which, I haven’t been in touch with him for a while, let alone seen him. After the breakup, he clearly lost weight and became despondent. He seemed a bit gloomy.
He seemed to often work part-time at various bars, which I can understand. These places have loose personnel management and higher income.
When he saw me, Ruben paused for a few seconds and then walked towards me, saying, “Sylvia.”
“Are you doing a part-time job here?” I asked.
“Well, next semester, I will find a proper company for an internship,” Ruben replied with a slight smile.
Greta stared at the young handsome guy and then remembered Ruben. “Isn’t this… the cute guy who approached me at Glitter Club?”
I quickly pinched Greta. “What are you talking about? He was still a student!”
Greta quickly covered her mouth.
I said to Ruben again, “Well, if there’s anything I can help with, you can find me. You focus on your work.”
“Sylvia, are you available to chat with me for a moment?” Ruben stared at me.
I was a little flustered by his gaze, but I still agreed to come down..
