The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1087

"If you don't believe me, I'll have him send a picture right now."

With that, Professor Dalton called his grandson.

Whatever Professor Dalton said worked, because his grandson actually texted a photo over.

Looking at the man in the picture, she couldn't shake the feeling she recognized him.

Seeing Claire staring at the photo, Professor Dalton thought he had a chance. "Well? Handsome, isn't he?"

"He's been showered with compliments since he was a kid."

"Your grandson looks a little familiar," Claire answered honestly.

"Familiar how? Look closer—doesn't he look exactly like your future boyfriend?"

Claire burst out laughing. Professor Dalton was actually pretty funny.

"Not really," she replied deadpan. "I just genuinely think he looks familiar. I might have seen him somewhere. What's his name?"

"Reid Dalton."

Professor Dalton proudly announced his grandson's name.

"Maybe you've seen him around The Cabinda University. He's currently running his startup while finishing his master's."

"He's in his final year and will probably go on to get his doctorate."

His grandson originally hadn't wanted to pursue a Ph.D., but his parents had given him an ultimatum: no doctorate, no startup.

Left with no choice, Reid was forced to juggle his studies and his business.

Speaking of his grandson, Professor Dalton beamed with absolute pride.

Claire hesitated for a moment. "Sorry, I don't know him. The guy I've met is named Preston Dalton."

And he definitely lacked Reid's commanding presence.

Preston was your textbook idiot.

He had dumped a proper heiress like Zara Zeller, opting instead for a two-faced manipulator like Zoe Zeller.

Of course, Claire wasn't going to judge who he wanted to date.

She just found the whole situation hilarious.

"Preston?" Professor Dalton was taken aback. "You're talking about my younger grandson!"

*Huh?*
