The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 981

“I was just worried we'd be interrupting Claire's date,” Macy Wade explained.

“It might not necessarily have been a date,” Priscilla Hastings mused, noting that while the two seemed close, they didn't exactly have that romantic chemistry.

“If it wasn't a date, what was it?”

“That guy looked a lot like the one we ran into right after we got off the bus earlier. He was really gorgeous.”

By Macy's standards, he was undeniably handsome.

Hadn't everyone been gossiping about him back then?

Priscilla thought about it carefully, and it did seem to be the same guy.

“He was good-looking, sure, but that doesn't prove anything.”

“Claire just started college. There's no way she's already in a relationship.”

Plus, that man looked like a Cabinda local.

Claire had grown up in Apex. She had been so focused on her studies before; she wouldn't have had the time to date someone in Cabinda, right?

Priscilla definitely had on rose-colored glasses when it came to Claire.

She firmly believed Claire was completely devoted to her academics. Not only was she a brilliant student, but she had also been studying medicine since childhood. Where would she find the time for romance?

Macy also felt Priscilla was idealizing Claire a bit too much.

“She's stunning. It wouldn't be surprising if she was dating.”

Fair enough.

Priscilla didn't know how to argue with that. The truth was, whatever they speculated was useless. They couldn't exactly march up to Claire and ask her, making the whole discussion pointless.

“Whether she's dating or not, it's none of our business.”

Priscilla didn't want to pry too deeply into Claire's private life.

Macy nodded. “True. It's just a shame for Ethan Monroe.”

Priscilla was completely lost. “What does Ethan have to do with this?”

Macy hesitated for a moment. “I thought Ethan had a crush on Claire.”

“He likes Claire? Since when? How did I miss that?”

Priscilla hadn't noticed a thing.

Macy frowned slightly. “I really thought he liked her. He was always watching her, and he even made sure to sit right next to her on the way to the training camp.”
