Chapter 372

Savoring his coffee, Haylan relished the tranquility of the moment while the sounds of Reign’s culinary prowess filled the kitchen. The absence of chaos, bullets, and gunfire brought him a sense of contentment.

He imagined that his life would be fulfilled with the presence of a loving wife and a child by his side.

“I wonder what the old man is thinking. It’s been almost a month, and he still hasn’t assigned me a mission.”

Lost in his musings, he reached for his phone, trying to contact his master.

However, his master was still unreachable/

Helpless, he had no choice but to end the call and absentmindedly browse through Instagram.

Reign was cooking, and it would be impolite for him to leave at this time. Thus, he could go home only after she had finished cooking and they had eaten together.

Besides, she was a pleasant person to eat a meal with. Therefore, he did not have the urge to leave immediately.

While scrolling through his Instagram feed, he did not come across anything noteworthy. It was just posts from his siblings, Lydia, Mia, Yvonne, and others.

After some thought, he finally opened his long-neglected Facebook account.

Over the years, he kept his status “unavailable” and had not contacted anyone.

Still, many of his old classinates were on the platform.

When he opened Facebook, as expected, he found countless feeds.

He was patient, scrolling through them one by one.

After finishing, he felt a wave of emotion.

It was because eight years had brought about tremendous changes!

Among his classmates, there were those who had successfully completed high school, pursued higher education, and were still immersed in their studies.

Others had recently graduated from university and were navigating the job market, searching for employment opportunities.

A few had embarked on entrepreneurial endeavors, only to face setbacks, overwhelming pressure, and even thoughts of self-harm

Meanwhile, there were those classmates who, immediately after finishing their SAT exams, hastily entered the workforce, got married, started families, and found themselves confronted with the hardships and responsibilities of adult life.

The majority of his classmates, those who did not attend the recent reunion, remained distant figures in his life.

Seeing their updates on social media, he could not help but feel a pang of helplessness. Many of them now had children, happily sharing family photos with their little ones.

“How time flies.”

After eight years, everything changed.

The sight of his classmates, weathered and aged, struck him deeply, as they appeared so starkly different from the vibrant and youthful peers he remembered from his memories.
