Chapter 8
Joshua spotted the gift box on my lap and reached for it without hesitation. Before I could stop him, he tore it open but froze in shock.
Inside the box was a Cartier skeleton watch, its crown embedded with a striking blue gemstone, worth around 30 thousand dollars. It was impossible to pass this off as a fake. It had to be the real deal.
Lina's eyes sparkled as she gasped, "That's gorgeous!"

Sure enough, as soon as I put the watch on, Joshua and his friends looked at me like they wanted to eat me alive.
Joshua's eyes, especially, turned red with jealousy-he was on the verge of losing it.

Joshua let out a laugh. "Don't even try to deny it. We all saw you cozying up to that rich lady. If that's not you being kept, then what is it? And don't try to tell me she's your sister since I know you're an only child!"
The students around us immediately began shooting me disapproving glances.
