The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1009

If Lily and the others had bothered to look into how Claire was kicked out of The James Family, they would have known she left with absolutely nothing.

However, no one was going to explain that to them.

Everyone just assumed Claire was sitting on a massive, secret nest egg.

Claire never bothered clarifying those rumors, nor did she care how others perceived her.

After class ended, she didn't linger, quickly packing up her things to head back to the dorm.

Before she left, Ethan stopped her.

"Call me if you run into any trouble."

"OK." Claire gave him a quick hand gesture.

In her mind, there was zero chance she'd actually need to call him.

Felix's mom seemed intensely enthusiastic, but she definitely wasn't a bad person.

Besides, her son was a student at The Cabinda University. If she dared pull anything shady, wouldn't she worry about her son's reputation being ruined and getting expelled?

So it was highly likely she genuinely just wanted to thank them. A nice meal would clear the emotional debt and give the woman peace of mind.

Judging by Felix's lifestyle, they certainly weren't struggling to pay for dinner.

"You really care about Claire, don't you, Class President?" Macy Wade remarked casually, standing next to Ethan.

Ethan glanced at her. "Isn't it perfectly normal to look out for a classmate?"

Why did Macy always make it sound like there was some scandalous secret going on?

"Maybe I'm just overthinking it," Macy said, lowering her gaze.

She honestly felt a guy as outstanding as the class president shouldn't waste his time barking up the wrong tree.

"I'm not trying to cause trouble, President, but I heard Claire already has a boyfriend."

"If you act like this, her boyfriend might get the wrong idea."

Ethan frowned. "You guys are just listening to baseless rumors. She doesn't have a boyfriend."

Macy seriously thought the president was being stubbornly delusional.

She had seen the guy with her own eyes—how could it be fake?

Claire and her boyfriend seemed totally solid.

Her boyfriend was gorgeous and clearly loaded.
