The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 185

"Honestly, if Claire sat out this winter camp, I think Cindy would feel a whole lot better," Molly said. "At least then, she’d feel like she and Claire were starting from the same place, both having to take the college entrance exams."

Octavia didn’t react. Molly, getting impatient, just blurted it out.

Valeria, sitting just on the other side of the wall, almost laughed out loud. If they hadn’t mentioned Claire and Cindy—the girl who’d been switched at birth with Claire—Valeria would have had no idea what these two were scheming.

Octavia was sly, and that so-called desk-mate of hers was downright nasty. Neither of them could be trusted.

Luckily, Valeria was sitting by the window, right where she could overhear everything while pretending to watch the scenery. If her seat had been anywhere else, she would have missed it all.

She quickly recorded the conversation and sent it to Claire, warning her not to come over just yet. She told Claire to kill some time somewhere else and wait until the two schemers left.

When Claire got the message, she wasn’t surprised at all. Octavia was always doing everything for her daughter. As for Molly... Claire honestly didn’t get why Molly hated her so much. Other than that one time Molly wanted to chase after Lance and Claire refused to play matchmaker, there wasn’t any real conflict between them.

Maybe Molly was jealous, but Claire always thought that was just normal teenage drama. It didn’t make sense for Molly to hate her this much. But now, it seemed like Molly really wanted to ruin her.

Claire couldn’t figure out when Molly’s resentment had run so deep. Still, she agreed with Valeria and decided not to show up just yet. She’d wait for the two of them to finish whatever plotting they were doing.

Meanwhile, Molly had no idea anyone was listening in, let alone recording them.
