A Love Rekindled

Chapter 73

Bruce and Cindy were sitting right across us.

Everyone there was big shots, and as an unimportant coder, I knew I was there to blend into the background

Soon, Stack, who I was waiting for, appeared with the person in charge. Their seats were arranged next to Richard and close to Bruce and Cindy. Cindy also recognized who Stack was. So, she took the opportunity to hand her name card to him.

It wasn't anything out of the ordinary. After all, world-class software engineers like Stack weren't easy to come by. However, it made Cindy look a bit anxious by how eager she was.

Thankfully, Stack wasn't a rude person.

After taking over the name card, he politely scanned it before handing it to his assistant.

At least he didn't embarrass Cindy.

Cindy was overjoyed. Then, she used a less-than-perfect foreign language to engage in a conversation about an ongoing game development project.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

At this, Stack seemed a bit interested. However, he soon changed the topic and asked, "I heard Mr. Fowler bring this up before. I heard that the software engineer in charge of building the front and back end is called Nancy Fisher?"

It was obvious that Cindy froze upon hearing this. But I didn't expect that Stack would bring me up either.

Meanwhile, Douglas was quick to react, and he took the initiative to greet Stack, "The Nancy you want to know is right here.”

Stack shot me an inquiring look.

Naturally, I wouldn't give up on such a good opportunity. So, I enthusiastically greeted him, "Stack, my name is Nancy. Nice to meet you."

Stack eyed me up and down. And after pondering for a moment, he started, "So, you're Nancy. I didn't expect to see you here two years later.”

I was a bit shocked. "Do you still remember me, Stack?" We'd exchanged a lot of emails regarding my admission matters.

Stack spoke confidently, "Of course. I was sad when you gave up enrolling in Jadara University. You have a lot of potential in software building.” His words caused everyone to focus their attention on me, and I felt embarrassed.

Not many knew that I gave up going to Jadara University, and everyone's gazes toward me changed when Stack said that.

This was especially the case for Bruce too.

We'd once promised to go to Jadara University together.

However, [pretended not to notice and smosthly shifted the ~~ conversation back to the new project. Then, I continued to happily chat with Stack.

Meanwhile, Cindy seemed unwilling to give up and tried to butt in on the conversation a few times. However, she was brushed off by Stack, and in the end, she could only quietly sit there.

After the party ended, Stack gave me his name card.

Stack only-gave out two name cards at the party that night. The other name éard was given out toa © famous tech company in thes” industry. . to

So, I left the party feeling quite fulfilled

At the downstairs of the hostel, Douglas looked drunk as he said, "Nancy, I feel very happy today, you know." “It's all thanks to you," I said.

Douglas stared at me. "But... Why don't you call me by my nickname?"

I didn't expect him to ask such an unexpected question, so I awkwardly replied, ‘I'm used to calling yourby your name." Swnovel.net _

"How about calling me by my nickname in the future?"

Just as I was about to answer him, my phone rang

Bruce was calling.

Douglas glanced at me before adding, "I'll take it as you agreed.”

With that, he went inside the building.

Then, I went into the car and stared at the buzzing phone.

After taking a deep breath, I accepted the call

"Nancy Fisher, you're not at home?" Bruce actually called me by my full name. It seemed like he was quite anxious

But it made me wonder why he knew I was not at home.
