On the way home, Judy noticed that Charlotte’s butterfly clip was missing. “Where’s your
clip?”
Judy pinched Charlotte’s empty bag and looked at her strangely.
Charlotte promised the boy not to tell anyone about his crying, and now she couldn’t
explain the
whereabouts of the clip.
She could only awkwardly say, “I don’t know…”
Fortunately, Judy didn’t dwell on it and just patted Charlotte’s head in resignation, “You’re
so absentminded, who do you take after?”
Enter title…
Congreve, who was driving, chuckled and interjected, “I was quite shrewd when I was a

“Are you saying I’m absent-minded?” Judy squinted at Congreve.
Congreve immediately apologized, and Charlotte, who was used to such scenes, just
smiled as she
watched her parents bicker.
The forgotten butterfly clip was soon pushed to the back of her mind.
Time passed quickly, and life didn’t stand still because of anyone’s passing.
In the blink of an eye, Charlotte transitioned from a naive young girl to a college student.
“Freshman,
which dorm are you in? Let me help you with your luggage?”
As Charlotte arrived at the gates of Yale University with her huge pink suitcase, several
upperclassmen
approached her with friendly smiles.
Charlotte was taken aback by their enthusiasm and instinctively took a step back, “No, it’s
okay, my
family…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Congreve hurried over with another suitcase.
The handsome man, with a commanding presence that had only grown more intimidating
with age,
exuded a sense of authority that made many people instinctively step back.
Congreve smiled, but there was a hint of warning in his eyes, “Thank you all, I’ll take care
of Charlotte’s
things.”
After the family walked away, the students who had been intimidated by Congreve finally
breathed a sigh

of relief.
“Who is that man? Why is his presence so powerful?”
“He’s the heir of the Faulkner Family, and he’s been in the financial magazines a lot
recently!”
“And that woman, she’s the daughter of the Clinton family! Their child…”
“She is the winner in life, isn’t she?”
As the students discussed, Wendy, who was watching the family leave, felt a twinge of
envy.
Why did some people seem to have everything handed to them without having to do
anything?
“Wendy?” A friend traveling with her looked at Wendy strangely.
Wendy quickly regained her composure, “I just remembered that the teacher seemed to
have asked me to
do something, that’s why I was distracted.”
After saying this, Wendy returned to her gentle demeanor.
Her friend nodded and took Wendy’s hand, “That freshman just now looked really pretty!”
