One of the others asked, “Huh? Isn't Edward's family super rich?”
Candy looked at them with disdain and replied, “You people really are so shallow! That was a Rolls Royce
Cullinan
a model so rare and luxurious that you can’t buy it even if you're rich.”
She paused for a moment, then added, “To own one, your wealth has to span generations. Even then, you'd still
need to be chosen in order to purchase it.”
“Wow...”
Everyone seemed flabbergasted, while Candy turned toand asked, “Does your husband fit the criteria?”
I simply chuckled. “I never said he owned the car, did I? Can't it just be a friend's car?”
One of the others was even more stunned and curiously asked, “Taylor, | heard sguy spent 40,000,000
dollars just to buy you a bracelet... Could that be the sfriend who owns that Rolls Royce?”
I smiled. “Who knows?”

Surprised, Candy exclaimed, “40,000,000 dollars for a bracelet? And for you? Are you sure that story’s true? No
rich man would ever be that stupid.”
“It’s true. | heard he’s a very mysterious big shot who bought it at a charity auction held by the Swedbury in
Holms.”
“Tsk. Then that’s even more preposterous. Why would anyone be stupid enough to spend that much on a
married woman, let alone 40,000,000 dollars? What could he possibly want from her?”
Candy refused to believe it, continuing to teasewith disdain while sizingup. “Unless... You're cheating on
your husband ”
Like they said, there was no point in explaining yourself to an idiot.
Thus, | just nodded and played along. “You're right. | am pretty good at cheating. | used to do it all the twhen

Before | could finish my sentence, my phone rang.
1 picked it up and turned to leave, grabbing Amanda with me.
Jean had asked how | had arrived at the academy and offered to have her driver dropoff later that night.
Remembering how insistent Soren had been, though, I quickly thought of a way to turn down her offer.
“It's okay, Jean. My roommate's here at the academy too, and I'm guessing we'll be partying pretty late. You
shouldn't stay up and wait for me.”
“Is this roommate of yours Amanda? In that case, I'll see if can join you two later tonight.”
Jean knew that Amanda was my closest roommate, and she’d often join us for meals when we were studying
together, so we were pretty close.
After hanging up, | turned to Amanda. “Jean says she’ll csee you if she’s available later.”
“Nice! I've been wanting to meet her too.” Amanda nodded without hesitation before turning to look at Candy
and the others behind us.
She muttered, “They’re probably still gossiping about you.’'m actually surprised you've managed to keep your

temper when Candy’s throwing so many insults your way.”
| sneered. “What's the rush? Why would | let her ruin my mood? She’s cback to our country to take up a
position, hasn't she?”
“I've done sdigging and found out she’s working at Aurea, a brand in Berrada, as the CEO of the branch
here: in Metropolis. So we're going to be seeing a lot of each other, since we're both in the fashion industry.”
Amanda looked surprised. “You found all that out so quickly? That's impressive!”
“She’s the one who said we'd be meeting each other a lot from now on, so | figured she was in the sindustry

Actually, | had just taken a wild guess and asked Jamie about it, since he had worked at Berrada before.
While not many Metropolitans work overseas, it was only a matter of tbefore someone with the right
connections would know something about her.
Amanda gavea thumbs up, clearly impressed. “That's so cool! | was so focused on her insulting you with Her
money that | didn’t even pay attention to what she said.”
We continued chatting as we made our way toward the school halls to check in, following the schedule sent to us
in the group chat.
We were supposed to attend a celebration in the hall and then enjoy a buffet lunch at the academy's various
canteens.
Back when we were studying, Amanda and | loved eating at Canteen No. 5 the most.
We had barely finished half our meal when Jean ran over excitedly.
The moment she sat down, she said, “Taylor! Guess who I just saw!”
