The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1120

"Meiko, was Taro this much of a playboy back in Sundara?"

Julia was genuinely just curious.

She didn't notice Meiko's face darkening.

Whitney, however, caught it immediately.

She found Meiko's reaction incredibly suspicious.

If she really wasn't close to Taro like she claimed, why was she getting so angry about his business?

"He is a playboy. If he wasn't so obsessed with Solenian culture and didn't have decent grades, he never would have gotten the exchange student spot,"

Meiko said, her tone laced with righteous indignation.

"Did he steal someone else's spot?"

Whitney asked, intrigued.

Meiko's expression stiffened for a split second before she smiled and shook her head. "No, nothing like that."

He definitely did!

Julia and Whitney exchanged a rare, knowing glance.

The moment she had the chance, Julia immediately spilled the new gossip to Claire.

She used the excuse of practicing her Solenian to make the call.

In reality, it was mostly just Julia running her mouth nonstop while Claire listened, only throwing in a comment here and there.

"Don't you think there's something fishy about this Taro guy? Like maybe he stole Meiko's spot originally."

"But then he went crazy, so Meiko finally got her chance to come."

Claire disagreed.

Even if Taro really had stolen someone's spot, the school wouldn't just send a replacement for no reason.

Unless this Meiko girl had even stronger connections than Taro did.

And if that were true, there was no way her spot could have been stolen in the first place.

"You said Taro is a massive flirt. Maybe they used to be a couple, and things just ended badly," Claire offered casually.

Julia thought that actually made a lot of sense.

"But that seems impossible, right? Meiko is so pretty and gentle."

"Someone like Taro doesn't even deserve her."

Why wouldn't he deserve her?

As long as the two people involved were fine with it, anything was possible.

When it came to relationships, who could really say?
