Chapter 75

Cyrus was adamant about going, and Zoey had no other option but to go along with him. She hoped the ridicule and mockery from their classmates would help Cyrus quit gambling and lead a better life. That way, she could leave with peace of mind and entrust Mira to him. Mira, on the other hand, was excited. This was the first time her parents had taken her on a trip she could remember. Her innocent heart was unaware of the disdain and mockery she would face. Zoey's decision to attend the class reunion caused a commotion in the group chat. There were thousands of messages exchanged within three days, filled with hurtful words. Everyone knew Zoey was the only girl who had rejected William back in the day, earning his resentment for years. On Saturday afternoon, Zoey and Mira dressed up beautifully. She looked at Cyrus, who hadn't even changed his clothes, and asked, "Aren't you going to put on a suit?" "No need. I'll satisfy your classmates' imaginations," Cyrus replied with a grin.
