The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1059

Zoe's complexion turned a sickly shade of pale. She immediately put on a wounded expression. "That's not what I meant at all."

"Claire, relationships with a massive disparity in social class never end happily, even if you force it."

"Look around our circle. Everyone chooses a partner based on family background."

"You're stunning, of course, but..."

"If you won't listen to reason, then I wish you luck," Zoe sighed, playing the part of the misunderstood, well-meaning friend to perfection. Anyone who didn't know she was foaming at the mouth for Dane would have actually believed her act.

"Oh? So you can swear on your life that you'll die single before you ever entertain a single thought about Dane?" Claire asked, her tone light and devastatingly blunt.

Zoe choked on her response. How could she possibly swear to that? She had been obsessed with the man for ages.

"You're taking this too far, Claire," one of Zoe's friends piped up, rushing to her defense as Zoe looked appropriately distressed.

Claire glanced over at Zara. She didn't know these women and found arguing with them mind-numbingly boring.

Zara immediately turned her guns on the friend. "Tessa Knight, whose leash are you on right now? Why are you barking at my guest?"

Tessa turned purple with rage. Zara had practically just called her a bitch to her face!

"Just because you're a Zeller doesn't give you the right to act like trash, Zara! Do your parents know you speak to people like this?" Tessa hissed.

Zara scoffed. "So what if they do? You think they're going to scold their own daughter over some random outsider? Did Zoe suck the last few brain cells out of your head?"

Both Tessa and Zoe were stunned into silence by Zara's sheer viciousness.
