My Second Husband novel Chapter 1196

Eddison had been staying in the dormitory, and he was living a frugal lifestyle.

Therefore, no one would have thought he was rich.

Just like the others, Sierra had thought he came from an ordinary family. Since she was being fed new information, she started to doubt her previous thinking.

Regarding the half a million dollars, he might have raised it from other people. However, she had received treatment at the hospital and her parents had come to stay with her with his expenses. She wondered where he had gotten the money from.

Moreover, he didn't seem to have any difficulties in doing those things.

Perhaps he was really wealthy.

The students were still gossiping, "Could it be possible that your brother is mistaken? Custom-made cars are quite different from the substandard cars in the market, yet we can't tell the differences between them too."

"For your information, only a parvenu would want to let the whole world know that he is rich. Those genuinely well-off and powerful families all keep low profiles. In order to inculcate a sense of perseverance in their children and to protect them, they will try their best to make their children look ordinary. However, even so, you should be able to notice that their children are well- mannered because they have been educated in that way since they were young. If you don't believe me, you can go and investigate yourself."

Everyone was rather dubious about it.

There was someone who took the opportunity to grab Sierra and question her.

"Sierra, you're quite close with Eddison. You should know that, right?"

Sierra was also confused, but a person like her would never say directly that she had no idea about his identity.

She just smiled, "It's his privacy. I shouldn't talk about it."

Thus, the surrounding people assumed that she was admitting that Eddison came from a rich family. Some of them started searching for information on Eddison on the Internet.

"With the Internet, we will know everything! Don't worry, Sierra, we won't tell others that you're the one who told us."

Then, everyone was busy searching for information on Eddison's identity.

However, they found nothing in the end.

"Those rich families are good at concealing, aren't they? Is it just that we're thinking too much into this?"

All of a sudden, someone shouted, "Isn't this Eddison?"

Everyone went over to that person hurriedly. It was an old news report. It seemed that the Granger family had used their influence to remove it not long after it was published. Therefore, it had failed to attract people's attention back then.

Nonetheless, the Internet had no boundaries. Hence, there were certain websites that had slipped through the cracks. An example of such websites had been found by someone.

The headline was 'The future successor of the Valiant East goes abroad to study, and his parents see him off at the airport, reluctant to part with him.'

A picture of Eddison walking towards the security checkpoint was also attached to the article.

The first person who managed to find it became boastful, "The person in the picture is him, right? I was right about him being from a wealthy family!"

Everyone was astonished, "Well, I really didn't see that coming."

Someone flattered Sierra again by saying, "He is incredibly wealthy, not to mention he is committed to relationships. Sierra, you should really accept him as your boyfriend. He has been nice to you over the years."

"That's right! We can't stand it anymore. Why would you refuse to be with such a decent guy?"

Sierra was still overwhelmed with shock.

However, she still spoke sheepishly, "I've told you that relationships aren't measured by status. He is indeed nice to me, but I've always regarded him as my younger brother in the past."

"Wow, you're really different from us! Even those strengths of his are not enough to tempt you."

"Wait, guys! She is talking about the past, so what about now?"

Sierra lowered her head shyly, "He has been very attentive and caring to me after the accident. I'm very touched, so maybe I'll consider him carefully."

"Consider? Come on, strike while the iron is hot! If you don't, someone else will!"

Sierra refused, "I don't want to act hastily this time. I think it's better for me to think about this a bit more."
