Chapter 95
She had a conviction back then, believing she had to find the young man who had saved her, refusing to be forever trapped in the shadows. Taking a six-month hiatus from school, she later returned, diligently scouring for information about the young man.
Eventually, she discovered his name was Nash and he attended the city’s top high school. His name lacked the letter “Z,” yet people called him Zac. She found it odd but figured it might be his nickname. She worked hard and managed to gain admission to his high school. However, she merely observed quietly from afar, never intruding on his space. He excelled in basketball, academics, and came from a wealthy family. He was so outstanding that she felt she wasn’t worthy of him, so she just kept silent.
Even as she passed by him, he wouldn’t spare her a second glance, having long forgotten the girl he once rescued.
“Nina.”
Nina was lost in her thoughts, reminiscing on the past with bitterness, excitement, and affection, until her thoughts were interrupted by a voice.
Turning around, she spotted Scott approaching from nearby.
Quickly regaining her composure, Nina offered a faint smile. “Scott, you’re here too.”
“Just came to check things out,” Scott replied. “Didn’t expect to bump into you here, How have you been lately?”
“Not too bad,” Nina responded.
Scott looked at the school and sighed, “The changes are immense. It’s been over a decade in the blink of an eye.
“Yeah, everything’s different,” Nina remarked, gazing at the students inside. Seeing them now was like glimpsing her past self, so inexperienced and innocent.
Scott turned to look at Nina, his eyes deep and enjoying their current company.
Her serene face always held a hint of gentle tranquility, causing his lips to involuntarily curl up. Quickly, he reined in his gaze. “I never expected you to come here.” Nina turned to face him. “Why wouldn’t I?”
“Scott!”
At that moment, Principal Wallace stepped out, warmly welcoming Scott and quickly shaking his hand. “It’s a rare occasion to have you visit the school today. It’s a beautiful day. Please,

come on in!”
“And who might this be…” Wallace spotted Nina, feeling a sense of familiarity. Suddenly, it dawned on him. “This must be Nina, the talented one. It’s been a while since I last saw you. Wallace had been her chemistry teacher and homeroom instructor back then. Over a decade. had passed, and now his hair was gray, with wrinkles lining his face.
Nina greeted him politely, “Principal Wallace, long time no see!”
Wallace beamed with delight. “No need to be so formal. Just call me Wallace. Today is a good day. I get to see two of my former students.”
He added with a hint of jest, “Scott went abroad and hasn’t returned. I understand that. But Nina, you graduated and never came to visit me. I have to reprimand you for that!”
Nina followed behind them. “I’ve been busy with work. It’s my fault. I’m here to make amends today!”
Wallace sighed, his words carrying weight as he said, “I also understand why you didn’t return. Times have changed, and we won’t see the same tragedy again.”
It was also a painful memory for Wallace. On that fateful day after school, three out of the five students involved were from their class. At that time, Scott had already left for abroad and was unaware of the tragedy until he learned about it later from ther
e news.
Concerned that Nina might be reminded of the past pain, Scott intervened, saying, “Mr. Wallace, let’s focus on the present.”

“Absolutely, let’s not dwell on it. I’m getting forgetful in my old age!” Wallace turned to Scott. “Scott, you’ve achieved success and haven’t forgotten your alma mater. I must thank you time. Your donation of ten million to the school is greatly appreciated.”
