At graduation, I invited my classmates to attend my engagement party, but what I didn’t expect was the total meltdown one of my classmates had when she saw my engagement photos. She strutted over, full of herself, and demanded that I take off my dress so she could use it to polish her shoes. I blinked in confusion, thinking she must have lost her mind. I laughed and suggested she head over to the campus clinic to get checked out. Instead, she exploded, pointing a finger right in my face as she started yelling. “You leech! How dare you wear something so expensive?” she screamed. “You’ve been spending all of my boyfriend’s money on your filthy clothes! Have you no shame? Get down on your knees and apologize, or I guarantee you'll regret it. Who knows where you'll end up tomorrow? Maybe in the hands of some trafficker?” I couldn’t help but laugh. Who would’ve thought that my fiancé, whose tuition fees I paid for, had the nerve to keep a secret mistress behind my back?

Matt’s face twisted with discomfort as he fidgeted with the hand in his pocket. "Please, Lily, for the sake of what we once had."For the sake of what we had? He sure had the nerve to say that.I forced a smile, one that didn’t reach my eyes. "Matt, over the years, I’ve spent far more on you than this measly amount. I have yet to ask you to repay me, so how do you even have the guts to ask for a favor now?"And you, Tiana, have I not told you before? Matt was my charity case. You didn’t believe me then, but what good is it to come begging now? Get out of here, or I’ll call the cops."With that, I turned to open my car door, ready to leave. However, before I could, Matt, who had been standing behind Tiana, took a sudden, angry step forward, almost growling, "Are you really not going to help us? Do you really have to be so cruel? It would only take a few words from you, and we could live normal lives again. Why won’t you just do it? Lily, are you doing this to get back at us?"I g

"I remember what you said you keep a low profile because you like things quiet. How could I have been so stupid to believe you? Thank God I finally see you for what you are."You better drop whatever ideas you have about us. We’re done."Matt broke into a cold sweat at my words, his face going pale. He dropped to his knees, pleading, "Lily, I’m so sorry! I swear, I’ll cut that tramp off for good. Please, don’t leave me! I’ll never do it again!"Hearing her own boyfriend call her a tramp, Tina finally snapped. She glared at Matt, her voice seething with rage."Matt, you bastard! You think I, Tina, am just going to sit here and take this? I won’t let you get away with it!"Without another word, she lunged at him, her hands going straight for his throat. The two of them started to brawl right in front of me, oblivious to everything else.I had no desire to watch that trashy soap opera any longer, so I walked away, leaving them to their mess.As expected, a classmate ended up postin

I casually glanced at Matt, a playful smirk on my face as I mocked, “Yeah, I’m not your girlfriend.”Matt didn’t say a word, but he quickly withdrew his hand.Seeing that, Tiana turned all her fury toward me. Her eyes practically bulged with rage as she glared at me. “It’s all because of this bitch!” she screamed. “She’s the one who’s ruining everything, trying to steal my man!”Without warning, she swung her hand at me, but in the next second, her slap landed squarely on Matt’s face instead.Tiana was dumbfounded. She stared in disbelief at Matt, who had stepped in front of me to block her. Her voice trembled as she demanded, “Matt! What the hell is going on? You said you were going to marry me!”Matt didn’t hesitate. He slapped her hard, knocking her to the ground. His face flushed a deep red, either from rage or embarrassment, as he glared down at her.“Shut up! When did I ever say I’d marry you? It was all fake, and you knew that! I’ve got one fiancée, and it’s her,” he s

The girls in the crowd screamed wildly at the sight of him.I’d seen plenty of handsome men growing up, but they were either calculating, clearly eyeing my family’s status, or they were playboys, switching girlfriends as often as they changed their clothes.Matt was different, though. He was pure and wholesome. I couldn’t help but fall for him.I deliberately arranged a "chance meeting" with him backstage and found out he had just gotten into college. However, because he couldn’t afford the tuition, he had to sing at bars to make ends meet.Due to his good looks, he made decent money every night, but that also meant he attracted unwanted attention. People hit on him all the time, and even the bar owner pushed him to entertain clients by drinking with them. I couldn’t stand to see him like that, so I offered to cover his tuition and help him finish school.I’d never forget the way Matt looked that day—how his eyes sparkled like the star. Just like I promised, I gave him a card an

Behind Matt, about a dozen security guards trailed along as he walked out leisurely in his tailored suit, his handsome face beaming with confidence. He looked every bit the part of a wealthy young heir. What a shame.The guards hesitated, looking over at Tiana for guidance.Tiana immediately broke into tears, rushing over to Matt with a face full of sorrow, as if she had been the one hit. She clung to him, sobbing as though the world had wronged her.Matt, clearly concerned, gently stroked her hair. "Babe, what's wrong? Did someone bully you?"The second those words left his mouth, the gathered students began looking at them with envy. The girls stared at Tiana with jealousy, probably wishing they were her, while the guys couldn't take their eyes off Matt's expensive-looking watch.Tiana whined sweetly, "Matt, some lowlife claims she’s your girlfriend."Matt instantly shook his head and pinched her cheek affectionately. "That’s impossible. You’re my only girlfriend. Who’s spreadi

Watching Tiana scream hysterically, I sighed.I had initially wanted to make things less awkward for both of us, keeping this private so we wouldn’t become a laughingstock. However, since she was determined to make a scene, I no longer cared."Yes, Matt is my fiancé. We've met each other's families," I said calmly. "And no, I’m not the one on a scholarship. He is. I've been the one supporting him financially all this time. Those designer clothes you’re wearing? They were bought with my money."Gasps echoed around us as my classmates’ faces shifted to disbelief.After all, Matt was the most admired guy in the entire college. No one could have guessed that someone who seemed as rich and invincible as a trust-fund baby was actually the one being financially supported.Still, Tiana rushed over and grabbed my collar, not believing a word of it. "What the hell are you talking about? Are you slandering your own benefactor now? Without him, you'd probably still be feeding pigs in some bac

“With just a word from me, you might still get your diploma. At least then you could fool some dumb rich guy later on," Tiana sneered."I’m marrying into his family soon, and every penny you’ve spent of his is technically mine. I can make sure you end up begging on the streets, saddled with so much debt you’ll never pay it off."Even if you worked as an escort at nightclubs, you wouldn’t make enough to clear it. It doesn’t matter how pretty you are—your heart’s pitch black. No rich family would ever want someone like you. Even a butcher wouldn’t."Tiana stood in front of me, arms crossed, waiting for me to fall to my knees and beg for forgiveness. However, I didn’t move an inch. I wasn’t stupid enough to be scared by her threats.Besides, before my engagement to Matt, my family had thoroughly investigated his background. To me, Matt was like an open book. The fact that this situation was happening just showed how well he had hidden his true self.As such, even when I found out Mat

I couldn’t help but laugh at her words. Seeing that I wasn’t scared and instead looked confident, Tiana’s face twisted in anger. She raised her voice, shouting, “The guy in the photo is my boyfriend! Lily is just some student whose scholarship my boyfriend funded! I never thought she’d be so shameless as to claim my boyfriend is her fiancé!”Her loud, shrill voice gave me a headache, and I snapped, “What nonsense are you spouting? He’s my fiancé! When did he become your boyfriend? Stop dreaming. You owe me an apology, or else–”Tiana cut me off with a sneer. “You? A pathetic scholarship girl, asking your sponsor to apologize? Know your place!”Then, she proudly pulled out a photo from her phone. “This is a picture of me and my boyfriend in the Maldives. How are you going to deny it now?”I stared at the picture, stunned. Tiana’s boyfriend looked exactly like my fiancé.Our classmates started giving me puzzled looks, and I was so shocked I couldn’t say a word. Could two people re

"Oh my God, Lily’s getting engaged so soon! And we didn’t even know who your boyfriend was. You really do know how to keep a secret!"“What’s the big deal? Lily’s from a wealthy family. She dresses like us to keep things low-key, but look at her outfit. That’s straight off the Milan runway!”“Our college sure is something else. We’ve got two rich girls in one class. Lily, you’ve been hiding this whole time. Let us cozy up to you!”The whole group burst into laughter after that comment, except for one person—Tiana Zeller. Her eyes were practically on fire, glaring at me. With a snide tone, she spat out, "Rich girl? Who knows where she got all her stuff from? No wonder you’ve been keeping to yourself, Lily. I guess you’ve found your golden ticket, huh?"Her words were sharp, and the meaning behind them was clear. Everyone in the room noticed, and several people frowned in discomfort. However, Tiana didn’t stop. She just kept going. “Listen, you might want to think twice before tr
