The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1654

The guy in the plaid shirt would normally have fired back an insult, but this time he stayed quiet.

Because he realized his newly formed crush had been crushed before it even began.

"Some people are just beautiful poetry that we're never meant to read," he muttered, sighing dramatically.

His friend gave him a weird look. "Since when did you become a poet?"

The plaid shirt guy glared at him. "If some rich guy hadn't beaten me to the punch, I'd be camping outside The Cabinda University tomorrow to win her over!"

"Yeah, right. Focus on your grades, and maybe one day you'll end up working together." His friend actually had a point.

If they wanted to be colleagues with Claire, their grades would have to be absolutely top-tier.

Both of them were decent students. If they pushed themselves, they might actually reach that level.

That was likely the only viable path to ever interacting with their goddess again.

"No, there's another way." The guy in the plaid shirt suddenly looked a little unhinged.

"What way?" His friend stared at him, genuinely curious.

"I can become her patient!"

The plaid shirt guy broke into a goofy, lovestruck grin. "You have no idea. When she was doing the acupuncture on me earlier, my heart was pounding out of my chest."

"But seriously, her medical skills are insane. My neck and shoulders feel amazing right now."

His friend punched him lightly in the stomach. "Get the hell out of here!"

Inside the car, Claire was touching up her makeup using the cosmetics she had grabbed from her own vehicle.

The dress Dane had prepared for her was waiting in the backseat, and she had managed to change into it during the drive.

Thankfully, the dress Dane had chosen was relatively easy to slip on.

It wasn't an overly complicated gown. It was an elegant cream-colored dress with a high-low hemline, adorned with three-dimensional embroidered roses.

As she moved, the roses seemed to bloom, creating a stunning visual effect.

The dress was beautiful without being overly extravagant.

Wearing just the dress would have been freezing, so Dane had also thoughtfully provided a warm overcoat, making the outfit perfectly comfortable.

Once they arrived, she could just take off the coat since the exhibition hall would be well-heated.

Claire followed Dane into the venue. Living up to its status as a premier jewelry show, the parking lot was already packed with luxury cars.

The moment Dane's car pulled up, staff rushed over to assist them.
