Heiress Rejects the Loser

The next day.

On my way to meet Alistair White for a date, I unexpectedly encountered Kyle Ford and his friends gathered downstairs at the same restaurant.

I aimed to head straight to the private room on the second floor, but they blocked my way.

One of them jeered, "Hattie, didn't expect you'd come crawling back to make amends with Kyle this quickly."

Kyle, hands casually in his pockets, smirked cockily, "Even if you got down on your knees today, I wouldn't forgive you."

I gazed at him steadily, wondering how someone once so gentle could change so drastically.

With a slight frown, I replied coolly, "Why would anyone apologize to a jerk like you? I'm not here for you; I'm here to meet my fiancé."

"It's just a coincidence we ran into each other here."

"Hahaha, that's a good one! That's really funny."

One of his friends laughed until tears streamed down his face. "Anyone dining here must be wealthy or important. You, a broke nobody, coming here for a date? Sounds more like you're trying to snag a sugar daddy."

Another chimed in, "Her fiancé is supposed to be the famous Alistair White, so it's only natural for her to be here, right?"

He scanned the room with a smug grin, "But... where's this big celebrity, anyway?"

"Hahaha, I bet you've never even met him, yet you dare to claim to be his fiancée—such nerve!"

As the laughter continued, Ayra Castro intervened with feigned gentleness, "Come on, guys, let's not be too harsh. I’m sure my sister didn't mean to mislead us."

She turned to me with mock concern, "Sister, if you're really engaged, why not bring your fiancé to the Thanksgiving dinner three days from now? You wouldn't want people to keep misunderstanding, would you?"

"Exactly, if you're brave enough, bring Alistair White!" the others chimed in.

I scoffed, "Fine, I'll bring him, and we'll be there."

With that, I walked straight up to the second floor, ignoring the angry shouts from Kyle behind me, "I can't wait to see you try to get superstar Alistair White to go along with this!"

I didn't acknowledge him or look back as I continued upstairs.

Upon entering the VIP room, I found Alistair already waiting on the couch.

I told him about the Thanksgiving dinner, and without hesitation, he agreed to accompany me.
