Chapter 14

"Before Marian's invitations went out, nobody knew Con was in Riverbrook. You're just making that up," another spoke up.

"Yeah, I am, but you calling him 'Con' is just gross. Are you that close to Connor? You haven't even spoken to him, have you?"

The girls were at each other's throats.

Chloe finally got it. They were all into Connor, but Chloe couldn’t wrap her head around it. These girls were all from the top echelons of society, living lives of luxury. Why were they so obsessed with marrying Connor?
