Chapter 417
Aveline was speechless.
She ignored Selena and instead looked at the young man, asking, “Who are you?”
Sidney was momentarily stunned, then scratched his head. “You don’t remember me, that’s alright. I’m a waiter here. If you need anything, just call me.”
He didn’t mention having saved Aveline.
Aveline looked at the young man, feeling he was very familiar.
Sidney had already turned and left.
Selena clicked her tongue twice. “He looks like a heartbroken affair you’ve favored
and then forgotten, Ave. You really don’t remember him?”
Aveline looked at her helplessly. “Watch your words. I don’t know him at all.”
Selena shook her head. “I don’t believe you. Otherwise, that handsome guy wouldn’t have looked at you with such a pitiful and aggrieved expression.”
Aveline fell silent.
How did she even see Sidney’s expression as pitiful and aggrieved?
“Come on, come on. I’ve already made an appointment. Let’s go see those collége guys. Maybe that handsome guy is one of them.” Selena pulled her towards the private room.
Aveline followed her into the room.
Sitting on the sofa, she asked, “So, can you tell me what happened?”
Selena said, “I found a new job. I studied interior design in college, so I got a job at an interior design studio. Guess what? On my first day, the first client I got was th
bastard Aaron!”
Aveline said, “He’s giving you money, what’s wrong with that?”
Selena replied, “You don’t know how difficult that man is. I turned him down on the spot. But then my boss said if I could secure Aaron’s project, I’d be made permanent.”
She paused and then said, “That’s real money on the table. Who can say no to money? I hesitated for a long time, then agreed.”

Aveline fell silent.
Seeing Selena’s pained expression, it was clear Aaron had made a lot of unreasonable demands.
Aveline suggested, “Maybe you should consider switching studios. Since you’re good at design, why not start your own studio? I’ll invest and be the major shareholder.”
Selena slapped her thigh. “Why didn’t I think of that? Unfortunately, I’ve already signed the contract. If I breach it, I’ll have to pay a penalty.”
Aveline was speechless.
Selena waved her
hand. “Forget about that bastard. Let’s check out the college guys.”
She used the phone in the private room, said a few words, and then announced,” They’ll be here soon.”
Aveline quietly ate some fruit.
In less than ten minutes, the door to the private room opened, and a group guys walked in.
They stood in a row in front of them, each with different personalities and
appearances.

“Hey, look at that handsome guy!” Selena leaned towards Aveline, pointing at Sidney standing in the middle.
Aveline instinctively looked over and met Sidney smiling at them.
The young man had a gentle appearance, with features that weren’t too sharp, giving him a soft, approachable look.
Selena whispered in her ear, “So, do you feel your heart fluttering?”
Aveline was speechless.
Her mouth twitched speechlessly.
However, in the dim light of the private room, memories began to surface. She recalled being forced to drink by Xander and his friends, and it seemed it was Sidney who had come in and saved her.
