Chapter 204
All the girls loved Jared and wanted to be his choice. However, Claire stole their thunder. Thus, they were reluctant to submit to the arrogant girl from the Hudson family.
Of course, Claire was very confident, since she had been good at the dance for a long time. Now she was in a sweat and stared at Jared expectantly.
She believed he would give her his room card.
Among the jeers of others, Jared glanced at Claire lightly and then said, "I think all of them are terrible dancers."
What?
Claire was stunned.
She came to realize that he wouldn't offer his card to anyone since he didn't find the best dancer.
Thus, she felt so upset. How couldn't he find she was the best?
It was suddenly embarrassing, since nobody expected Jared to refuse all the girls. To be honest, he was interested in none of them.
Here came a meditator. "In terms of the dance, Aurora performs it the best."
Everyone looked at Aurora. "Mr. Gallagher didn't think they were good. Why not dance it to him? You perform it very well."
Jared looked up and his cold dark eyes fell on Aurora's pretty face.
She glanced at him and then tucked a strand of hair near her cheek behind her ear. "I'm sorry. I don't feel good today and cannot dance it. Have fun. I'm gonna use the restroom." When she finished, she came out.
She stood in the cloister to take the air. The atmosphere in the private room made her uncomfortable, so she couldn't help but leave.
At this moment, a tall and handsome guy from a wealthy family came to her. "Are you Aurora? Do you remember me? I'm your high school classmate."
She recognized him and replied politely with a smile, "Hello."
"Long time no see. You are more beautiful now. I nearly cannot recognize you. During our high school life, you were the most good-looking girl. I don't expect you to be a superstar. Are you...still single? If so, I will chase you."
What...
The guy was so enthusiastic that he made her a bit awkward. "I..."
Before she said something, a man interrupted her in a deep voice, "No. She has a boyfriend."
The guy looked up, only to see Jared come to her and pause.
He suddenly looked pale. As Aurora's classmate, he had never forgotten Jared was her brother and that he was reluctant to see any boy get close to her.
During that period, Jared always accompanied her to join any party. Sometimes, he used to take his private secretary and check documents for business in the corner. Thus, he was more mature than the guy even in high school, which impressed the latter a lot.
The guy was still afraid of Jared. So, he forced a smile and said, "Mr...Mr. Gallagher, how are you doing? Aurora, I have something to deal with. I'm gonna leave first."
