Having said that, Percy Stanton slowly lowered his head and kissed Isabel Smith’s forehead, then stood up and went to take a bath in the bathroom.

When he came out, he was holding a makeup remover in his hand. He walked to the bedside, applied the remover on Isabel’s face, evenly distributed it, and then wiped it clean with a wet wipe, revealing a pure and innocent little face, just as beautiful as ever…

..Past Events · Memories..

Percy Stanton met Isabel Smith when he was 18 years old.

At that time, he had been in Bellshire for four years and was working on his Master’s degree at Starhaven University Bellshire.

He was a low-key and introverted person who disliked showing off or being high-profile. Therefore, in Starhaven University where wealthy families’ children gathered, he was not so eye-catching.

The only thing that might leave an impression on others was his outstanding looks, which attracted the admiration of countless female students. However, due to his cold temperament, no one dared to desperately cling to him; he just received some love letters and gifts.

It was an autumn morning; he had been working on an experiment in the school laboratory all night. When he came out, the sky had just started to lighten up. He needed to pass through the pedestrian street behind Starhaven University to get to his dormitory.

At that time, he was riding a bicycle. The end of the pedestrian street was a roadway, and he happened to stop there waiting for the red light. Suddenly, a taxi stopped in front of him, the car door opened, and a young girl stepped out. She was bare-faced, wearing a white skirt, white canvas shoes, her black hair tied in a ponytail, looking energetic and pretty.

He was from Thompson Empire Group, and since childhood, he had been surrounded by the most beautiful men and women. To be honest, the girl’s appearance was very pretty, but it couldn’t compare to the stunning beauty of his older sister, Charlotte Thompson.

Therefore, he didn’t pay attention to her. He was just standing on one foot, while the other was on the pedal, waiting for the red light to turn green.

The girl bent down and said something to the taxi driver inside. She then turned her limited-edition Chanel bag upside down, pouring its contents onto the ground.

There weren’t too many items—a mobile phone, a Maserati car key, a notebook, some coins, and a few miscellaneous snacks. Although time had passed, he could still remember it clearly: there were three lollipops, two of which were apple-flavored, and one strawberry-flavored, along with two packets of Coffeego instant coffee.

The girl squatted down, picking up the coins one by one, then slowly counted them. Finally, she looked both ways in annoyance, turned her head, and said something to the taxi driver before running over to him. Without even looking at him, she reached out, tapped his bicycle, and their fingers collided with the metal, making a crisp sound. Then she lifted her chin and said, “Classmate, hello, can you lend me five dollars?”

The girl’s voice was very pleasant, with a hint of arrogance. It wasn’t the kind of attitude you’d expect when borrowing money, but it didn’t make people feel annoyed. On the contrary, it seemed that her temperament and appearance were perfectly matched with her arrogance.

At that time, although Percy was inwardly ambitious, he was still very polite and friendly on the outside. So, he took out his wallet from his pocket, found a five-dollar bill, and handed it to the girl.

The girl stretched out two fingers and took the money with a posture thousands of times more arrogant than his. She still didn’t look at him and just snorted through her nose, “Thank you,” then turned around, walked to the taxi driver, and stuffed all the change and the five dollars into his hand.
