Riches in Disguise

I couldn't hide my confusion. "Our school's most famous heiress? Isn't Felicia the

school's belle everyone's been raving about online lately?"noveldrama

The moment those words left my mouth, I was met with several disdainful

glances.

"You seriously don't know anything, do you?"

"William, seriously, what have you been up to? How could you not know who our school's most famous heiress is?"

"Exactly! Everyone knows it's Crystal Morgan. No one comes close-those who are prettier don't have her wealth, and those who are wealthier don't have her looks. She's the unmatched queen of the heiress league!"

"Crystal Morgan?"

I was stunned when I heard that name. "Crystal Morgan?" I repeated.

Benjamin nodded enthusiastically. "That's her! Let me tell you, I was lucky enough to see her once at the administration office. She's neither as glamorous as Lina nor as sexy as Felicia, but there's this indescribable, pure elegance about her. She looks just like that actress, Kristin Chandler!"

"Oh, yeah. She really does resemble her," someone chimed in.

"Honestly, I think she's even more stunning than Lina and Felicia. She's got this unique, noble aura that sets her apart."

My expression darkened. "Can you guys stop comparing her to other girls? Especially my ex-girlfriend and current girlfriend? What's wrong with you?"

They chuckled awkwardly, scratching their heads.

"We're not trying to. It's just that when people talk about Welsington University, Lina and Felicia are the two big names everyone thinks of."

"Yeah, William. You've had the honor of being with two belles. You should be proud!"

"Exactly!"

I couldn't find the words to argue, so I just stayed silent.

However, the mention of Lina made me realize I hadn't seen her in a while. The last time was when she went to Silence to return some clothes. I had helped her with that, but after that, I had no idea how she was doing.

I wanted to ask Isabelle about her, but I held back. I didn't want them to think I was still hung up on Lina, so I swallowed the thought.

At that moment, Matthew turned to Isabelle, curiosity written all over his face. "So, who's Crystal's boyfriend? Is he from our university?"

I perked up at the question.

Isabelle laughed. "I'm not sure, but I do know that the girl who's always hanging out with Crystal said she's found her prince charming. Crystal even admitted it today when someone asked. She said they'll officially announce their relationship soon."

I scoffed at the thought of them officially announcing their relationship soon.

Before going to bed that night, I called Felicia, but she didn't answer.

The next morning, I saw her message. It was sent at 2:00 am. "Sorry, William. I just finished

training. You're probably alreadynet

asleep and I should shower and

sleep now. Training has been really tough and exhausting lately, so I might not be able to pick up your calls or reply to your messages in time. Please don't be mad at me."

I smiled and texted back, "Why would I be mad? I'm more worried about you than anything. Felicia, don't push yourself too hard. I know you might be using the intense training to distract yourself from the sadness of losing your mom, but your health is the most important thing. Okay?"

Her reply came almost instantly. "I know. You take care too!"

She had only finished training at 2:00 am. Assuming she went to bed by 2:30 am, it was just past 7:00 am now. That meant she had less than five hours of sleep. Yet, she had to get up for another grueling day of training. It was heartbreaking to think about how hard she was pushing herself.
