The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 611

“It’s fine, really. Eat as much as you like. I knew three people couldn’t finish everything, so I kept the portions small for each dish.”

Edison wasn’t stupid, and he hated letting food go to waste.

The table was covered with dish after delicious dish. Claire pulled out her phone and snapped a picture, posting it on Facebook.

She had a huge list of friends—within minutes, the likes and comments were rolling in faster than she could count.

A call came in from Shirley. “Claire, where are you eating? Why didn’t you invite me?”

“At Edison’s place,” Claire answered.

“What, is there some rule saying I’m not allowed at Edison’s? I’m getting in the car right now!” Shirley never pretended to be a guest.

“I wouldn’t mind you coming, but—”

Claire paused. She could already hear Patti’s furious yelling in the background.

“Never mind, I can’t go. My mom is calling for me,” Shirley said, exasperated.

“Next time, you better invite me.”

“I want to taste Edison's cooking myself.”

“Oh! Did you hear what score Cindy got this time?”

Claire hadn’t heard anyone mention it yet. She figured she’d find out soon, since everyone was headed back to school the next day.

“I don’t know. What’s up?” Claire asked, though she wasn’t interested in Cindy’s grades at all.

Whatever Cindy scored, it had nothing to do with Claire’s life.

“Heard she did really badly—Octavia’s livid. When my mom called Octavia to celebrate my grades, she casually asked about Cindy. Octavia wouldn’t say a word.”

“All she said was Cindy didn’t do well and might need to repeat the year.”

“I’m guessing she didn’t get into college at all.”

Patti, to be honest, had never expected that much from her own daughter. She was even ready for Shirley to just go straight into the workforce after high school.

But Shirley had done way better than anyone expected.
