Holly had heard of Owen. After all, she was a young lady from a wealthy family herself, and her parents had mentioned more than once how wonderful it would be if Holly could marry Owen, the head of the leading Calhoun family among the four great aristocratic families.

Holly, ever the realist, would roll her eyes each time and shatter their delusions. “Since when do tycoons fall for plus–sized girls?

Even in those cheesy novels, Cinderella’s got a waistline!”

Now she saw Owen under such circumstances, and he was actually her good friend’s boyfriend!

Holly felt like her idol had descended to the mortal world.

Holly was very glad that she did not listen to her parents and overestimated herself at the previous party to show her face in front of Owen. Otherwise, she would probably be extremely embarrassed at this moment.

Still, she had to admit that with looks like Hailey’s, matching Owen was hardly a stretch.

As Hailey’s good friend, Holly instinctively took Hailey’s side.

“Then you are?”

Holly thought, ‘Since Owen is Hailey’s boyfriend, who is this man? He is so handsome, too. Could he be... a suitor? A suitor crashing into the boyfriend–now this is drama gold.‘

Holly offered Hailey a silent “F” in her heart.

“Hello, my name is Raphael. I’m Hailey’s good friend,” Raphael said with a gentle expression.

Yet even as he said it, Holly’s sharp instincts caught the undercurrents swirling between the two men, something far more volatile than polite rivalry.

“Hailey has already started school today. If you want to talk to her, you might have to wait for the weekend. Oh right, Hailey will move to my place in the future. I’m here to help her pack some things,” Owen said calmly.

Holly was surprised. “Are you two going to live together?”

Raphael’s expression slightly changed.

Owen pretended not to notice and nodded with a smile. “It’s like this. She’s about to take the SAT. There are a lot of people at home. I’m worried about living here alone, so I might as well let her stay at my place. It’s convenient for me to take care of her.

Moreover, we’ve already agreed that we’ll get engaged first after she graduates.”

Holly jumped on the spot happily. “That’s great. I’ll definitely attend your engagement ceremony.”

Owen nodded and thanked her.

“Then you guys go ahead. I’ll leave first.” Holly glanced at Raphael’s unhappy expression and tactfully chose to slip away.

Owen nodded.

When Holly spoke, the smile on Raphael’s face had completely disappeared. He didn’t say anything and turned to leav Owen naturally could not be bothered. He had already staked his claim. He would let everyone know that Hailey was his girl School started today, and the school was very lively.

1/3 08:03 Sat, 5 Apr Chapter 121 News of Hailey taking over the company’s new project spread like wildfire, and everyone was discussing it.

Other than that, more people were discussing Beatrix and Matco.

Before school started, someone anonymously revealed on the school forum that they had taken photos of Beatrix and Mateo entering and leaving the bar together. The two of them held hands and looked especially intimate.

After school started, the two of them were even more unrestrained in showing off their love in school. They stuck to each other wherever they went.

No one expected these two to end up together. Many classmates were secretly curious about Hailey’s opinion.

After all, everyone still remembered that Mateo had chased after Hailey. Now that her pursuer had gotten together with someone else after the holidays, they did not know what the person involved was thinking.

Hailey had no thoughts about it. She even wanted to take two photos and send them to her friend to expose Mateo’s true colors as a scumbag.

Mateo and Beatrix were both socially adventurous, and their relationship progressed rapidly.

Not long after school started, the school had to organize a sports meet. Although Hailey and the others were in their third year of high school, the form teacher felt sorry for them and was afraid that they would be obsessed with studying every day. Hence, he specially asked the principal to let the third–year students participate in this sports meet. After all, it was their last year, and they would not have a chance in the future.

When the time came, there would be a lot of people. It would be the best day for Mateo to completely fall from grace.

Because it was the last half of the semester, the school had become stricter with third–year students like them. Half a month after school started, Hailey welcomed her first weekend.

There was only a day and a half.

It was Friday after school. Owen received the news in advance and came to pick her up.

After staying in the school for half a month, she felt that the air outside was fresh.

Hailey was wearing a school uniform, and her long hair was casually tied into a ponytail. She did not put on any makeup, but her face was full of collagen, and she exuded a youthful aura.

The young couple had not seen each other for half a month. Hailey missed Owen, too.

Her long hair fluttered in the wind as she ran happily into Owen’s arms.

Owen hugged her tightly. A gentle smile appeared on Owen’s face. He raised her hand and gently patted the top of her head.

“Let’s go home. I’ve made a lot of food for you. Everyone in the family is waiting.”

“Family?” Hailey was slightly stunned.

Owen nodded. “Thomas, Ruby, and the Medranos are all waiting for you and Casey at our house.”

“Then let’s pick up Casey.”

Owen smiled. “Don’t worry, she has someone to pick her up.”

Hailey looked to the side and saw a luxury car parked there.

The car window rolled down, revealing Ivan’s face.

He smiled at Hailey and said, “Hi, sister.”

2/3 08:03 Sat, 5 Apr Chapter 121 Hailey was silent for a moment before looking at Owen. “Why did he call me sister?”

Without waiting for Owen to answer, Ivan replied first, “Well, as Casey’s boyfriend, I’m adopting her family tree.”

He sounded exceptionally self–righteous.

Hailey was lost for words.

Coincidentally, Casey walked out of the school gate and was walking over.

+88 Hailey was the first to stop Casey. She asked with a smile, “Casey, when did you date Ivan? It’s been so long, and I only know about it now, huh?”

Casey was still a little confused, but when she heard the words Ivan, her delicate little face suddenly turned red. She stuttered, “Hailey, that...”

“What are you doing? How can you bully our Casey like this? Although you’re my sister, you can’t stop my girlfriend.” Ivan hurriedly rushed out of the car and pulled Casey into his arms.

Owen also walked over and stood beside Hailey.

The two men were exceptionally childish.

Hailey and Casey were a little speechless. They even began to doubt their boyfriends‘ intelligence.

“Alright, alright. Stop standing there. Let’s go home.” Hailey pulled Owen into the car.

The group then got into their respective cars and returned to Owen’s villa.

The Medrano family sent Nicolas and his wife Stephanie, while the Daltons were represented by Isaac and Thomas.

Representing the Calhoun family was Ruby.
