The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1617

"Reid had some fresh seafood flown in."

Zara proudly displayed the massive coolers, proving she wasn't showing up empty-handed.

Yanis quickly chimed in, "I had my staff deliver a bunch of premium ingredients too. It'll definitely be enough to feed an army."

Zara added competitively, "I also had my family's chef prepare custom desserts and drinks!"

Claire stared at them.

Are you guys insane?

"Is eating at my place really more exciting than going to a Michelin-star restaurant?"

"Should we just change the venue?"

You people are literal billionaires! Don't you have sprawling mansions?

Why are you insisting on cramming into my standard apartment for dinner?

Claire was genuinely baffled.

"It just kind of happened!" Reid looked a bit embarrassed.

Even though he had met Zara's roommates a few times as her fiancé, he still didn't know them that well.

Crashing their girls' night was definitely intrusive, even if they said they didn't mind.

But he was a ruthless businessman; he had thick skin.

When he was with his fiancée, he didn't care what anyone thought.

He had heard that college girls loved gossiping during these dinners.

If he wasn't there, he knew he'd absolutely be the main topic of conversation.

To avoid being dissected and analyzed, he decided to just invite himself!

They couldn't exactly gossip about him if he was sitting right there, right?

What Reid didn't mention was that he overheard Zara on the phone with Skylar, who mentioned bumping into Yanis.

When Yanis demanded to crash the party, Reid immediately decided he was coming too.

Yanis was a few years younger and had grown up with Zara.

Logically, childhood friends never actually ended up together, so he shouldn't be a threat.
