Love Burned, She Rose Unscathed novel Chapter 794

Owen Reynolds couldn't help but chuckle, "That's such a stereotype. You wouldn't guess it, but even though Fernando is in his seventies, he's young at heart. He's all about keeping up with the trends, loves reading thrillers, binge-watching the latest drama series, and sipping on Starbucks lattes."

Roseanne looked puzzled. "Really?"

"Yeah, it sounds unbelievable, right? But wait till you meet him."

About ten minutes later, a tall figure appeared in front of them.

"Hey, Owen!"

Roseanne took a closer look, and despite being somewhat prepared, she was still taken aback, her eyes wide with surprise.

This... this was beyond unexpected!

Standing before them was an elderly man—or was he? Judging by his outfit, you wouldn't guess his age at all—

A GAP hoodie, Levi's jeans, and a Moncler puffer jacket draped over his arm.

A baseball cap covered his graying hair.

His slightly wrinkled eyes were hidden behind a pair of sunglasses.

Who could tell how old he was under that get-up?

No wonder Owen Reynolds described him as "young at heart and trendy"—this man was the epitome of style!

"Fernando, it's great to see you again—"

Owen Reynolds stood up, smiling as he shook Fernando's hand, then turned to introduce him to Roseanne.

Fernando's response was firm. "That can't be right. As far as I'm aware, the judges wrapped up their work back in mid-January. Typically, the reports start getting sent back around then. The organizers should have completed the returns by now. Some students already got theirs as early as last week, and at the latest, you should have it by this week."

Roseanne thought back carefully, realizing she hadn't received any delivery notifications in the past couple of weeks.

Just to be sure, she called her teammates, Mamie and Scales, and both confirmed they hadn't gotten any packages either.

Seeing her concern, Fernando mused for a moment. "You might want to check with the college office again. During winter break, staffing is short, and sometimes deliveries can be delayed."

"…Alright."

After that, Roseanne seemed a bit lost in thought, her mind clearly occupied.

Owen Reynolds, trying to keep the atmosphere lively, continued to chat with Fernando while keeping an eye on Roseanne out of the corner of his eye.
