The Billionaire's True Heiress: From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 232

Norris wasn’t totally sure what Sammie meant, but since his own family hadn’t reunited with her yet, he figured there was no need to spill anything to Sammie for now.

The Churchill family stayed wary and a little hostile toward everyone when it came to Melissa. Even though Norris truly appreciated Sammie and had been helped by him, he still couldn’t help but feel a bit suspicious.

“Maybe all pretty girls just have a similar vibe?” Norris said, trying to play it off.

“Professor, I’m going to get lunch. Are you heading back, or...?”

“I’ll go back first. No need to wait for me.”

After Claire set down her tray, her roommates and Len’s group finally wandered over.

“Claire, you’re so bold. How did you end up sitting with Sammie?” Len asked, wide-eyed.

Whenever Sammie was around, everyone got tense. He was strict in class, and even though he’d patiently explain problems afterward, nobody could really relax around him. He was just that brilliant, and honestly, a little intimidating.

“I just wanted to ask him a math question,” Claire said, making up an excuse with a shrug.

“Sammie’s a math genius. Isn’t it kind of an honor to eat with him?” She grinned and laughed at herself.

The others exchanged glances, thinking she actually had a point. Even if they were about to get eliminated and never make it to the IMO, being able to say they’d shared a table with Sammie was bragging rights for sure.

“Now I wish we’d gone over there too.”

“Seriously, I should have carried his tray for him.”

“Is Sammie actually nice outside of class? I’ve never dared to talk to him.”

Claire answered all their questions, one after another. After hearing her stories, Sammie didn’t sound so scary anymore.
