Loved You Once But He's My Forever

Chapter 332 Intentions or Love at First Sight?

The group stared at Sadie curiously. "Wait, Sadie, are you truly saying you can't cover tens of thousands?"

"I read in the news that your dad's company handles billion-dollar projects. Didn't you even donate a building? Surely this meal-"

One of her classmates grinned. "Don't worry about that. The guys in our class can handle their drinks. Let's go with a bottle of red wine for each person to start!" Sadie was momentarily speechless.

At that moment, she must have felt trapped, unable to back out without consequences. The thought of her true identity being exposed and her carefully crafted image as a wealthy heiress crumbling terrified her.

Her identity felt like a precarious secret hanging over her, and the power to reveal it rested entirely in my hands.

As long as I was around, Sadie would live in constant fear.
