Chapter 172

"I don't want to brag, but yeah.Things are finally in the proper place for me"

Katherine was not modest at all.

Alexa started to get bored and said, "Well, we don't want to be late, right? Let's go inside”

Once they were both inside the ballroom, the two influential ladies had realized they were late.

When Katherine entered the door, she was then greeted by many classmates with adoring eyes.

After so many years, Katherine was still the same.

Nothing had changed, and her beauty was still as gorgeous as ever.

Alexa was also beautiful, especially with her lavish clothes, which made her more attractive than ever.

But with her standing next to Katherine, it was evident that Alexa's makeup was too strong.

If we were to talk about flowers, Katherine was like a bright blooming rose, while Alexa was like a small
wildflower that you could see anywhere on the side of the road.

Surrounded by tall, green weeds, she was beautiful, but she could be easily overshadowed when
placed in front of the bright rose.

In the past, Alexa had always been the center of attention every time she entered a room and joined a
school gathering.

However, that was before, when Katherine hadn't come home.

Alexa had almost forgotten that as long as Katherine was in the room, she would always be and forever
the second on the list.



Alexa felt that she had returned to the days when she was still in high school.

As long as Katherine and Alice were present, she would forever play the minor role! June's boyfriend
was a supervisor in Alexa's old company.

That was why she always made sure to be on her best behavior whenever Alexa was around.

Whenever Alexa attended a class gathering, June would always praise Alexa as an angel who came
down from heaven.

Today was no exception.

Before June came, she prepared a list of compliments specially intended for Alexa.

But as soon as she laid eyes on Katherine, June's attention was diverted into her, and she totally forgot
about Alexa! The difference between the two ladies was so apparent that anyone could easily switch
their loyalty.

Katherine was not present at all every time there was a class gathering.

News about her could only come from the Internet.

She rarely appeared at any social meetings that made people gape at her beauty when she entered
the room, and almost half of them wanted to greet her.She was tagged as the most beautiful and
intelligent girl in her class.She was always at the top of their class' list when it came to the academic
field.

Eighty percent of the boys considered Katherine as their ideal type.

Ten years after graduation, many people would have accomplished a lot of achievements.



When they heard that Katherine would attend this year's class reunion, they all wanted to brag
everything about it to Katherine.

However, this thought disappeared after they saw her.

Ten years ago, Katherine and the others weren't as prominent, but now, Katherine was even more
successful compared to them.

Aside from being beautiful, that calm and elegant personality showed that money was no longer a
problem.

One of Katherine's former male classmates asked, "Katherine, what have you been doing all these
years? You have changed a lot since we've last seen you!"

Katherine smiled and was about to answer when a female voice suddenly interrupted, "Where have
you been? Haven't you heard the news? Four years ago, Katherine here married Zack.They even got
divorced just last year.The person who spoke was one of Alexa's minions in high school.She used to
spread strange news against Katherine before.It was safe to say that even time couldn't change her
vile attitude.

Katherine raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Betty, oh, you haven't changed at all.You're still very concerned about my life.With Katherine's
unaffected expression, Betty's face stiffened as she exclaimed, "Everyone who has access to the
Internet knows about this, though."

Katherine smiled and replied, "Oh, yes! And I almost forgot that your husband's cheating escapades
were also revealed on the Internet."



"What nonsense! My husband is so loyal to me.How could he cheat on me? He was the one who
dropped me here tonight.If I wasn't so concerned about his important family affairs, he could have
joined me tonight.He doesn't even want to leave me even for a minute.So, stop with your nonsense
and show me proof of your accusations!"

Katherine smirked at Betty and didn't answer her as if she had just said an innocent accusation.

But everyone knew that Katherine's revelation was a bit scandalous, and someone finally had the
nerve to interrupt them before things could escalate into something unacceptable.

At this time, June pulled Betty, "Oh, come on, Betty.Stop this!"

"Let go of me, June! Let me tell you this.So, what if she's beautiful? She's still a divorcee! Zack
abandoned her.Do you know what a divorced woman is? Someone undesirable, that is!"

The smile on Katherine's face faded.

"I'm sorry to say this, but I didn't want Zack either”
