The Double ( or More ?) Life of The Fake Heiress

Chapter 435

With a firm belief that he couldn’t let his little sister doubt his charm, Zach tried to be the picture of chivalry and politeness to any lady who approached him with interest–as long as they weren’t outright unpleasant to look at. He was almost indiscriminately welcoming.

Unbeknownst to Zach, who thought himself a dashing gentleman, his reputation was swiftly morphing into that of a notorious ladies‘ man, and it wasn’t long before he was called out.

“Hey, that designer outfit you’re rocking, how much does it cost to rent?” teased Autumn, her eyes playfully fixed on Zach as she fiddled with her smartphone.

A chill crept into Zach’s demeanor. “It’s not rented, thank you.”

Hearing his response, Autumn’s beautiful face was etched with mock surprise. “A guy who can afford a suit that costs thousands wouldn’t be caught dead at a mixer like this. If you’re going to play a part, at least make it believable.”

She paused for a beat, then, without waiting for Zach to reply, continued with a mischievous grin, “I’ve seen plenty of players, but someone as unapologetic as you? That’s a first. How many mixers have you crashed so far?”
