It was not just them. Even the people nearby were whispering and pointing at her.
Felicia overheard someone say, “Look, isn’t that the one from the photos? The real heiress from the wealthiest family, Felicia Fuller?”
Another voice added, “I heard this real heiress just got back and already snatched her sister’s fiancé. How shameless! It’s not like she did anything remarkable. She’s just lucky to be born into a rich family” “Isn’t it great to go from rags to riches? One moment, she’s just a country bumpkin, and now she’s a refined heiress. Tsk, tsk.”
Thanks to Amold, all of Felicia’s past and information had been spread around, making it impossible for her to stay unnoticed.
At school, there were various cliques. Those from wealthy families or prestigious backgrounds looked down on Felicia. They thought that being seen with her would lower their status since she came from the countryside. Meanwhile, students from more average or modest backgrounds kept their distance from Felicia, fearing that the backlash aimed at her might unintentionally affect them as well.
Many students chose to ally with Kayla, defending her fiercely.
They questioned how the real heiress could return and claim everything that belonged to the false one. After all, the mix-up at birth made Kayla just as innocent.
Felicia kept her gaze straight ahead, As long as they didn’t confront her directly, she could pretend she hadn’t heard a thing.
As she was about to head to her dormitory after completing her registration, three boys blocked her path. The leader, dressed head to toe in designer clothes, clearly exuded the air of a wealthy scion.
Felicia glanced over and recognized him immediately-it was Melvin, Kayla’s number one admirer.
To put it simply, the last time she was kidnapped, it was Melvin who had instructed Lance to do it. She hadn’t sought revenge on him, but now he seemed eager to confront her.
Melvin stepped closer, sizing Felicia up. He scoffed and said, “You’re quite resilient, aren’t you? Surprised you made it out
Felicia rolled her eyes and pretended to clean her ears I can’t hear you. Are you barking like a dog?”
If he was brave enough, he should reveal the details of her kidnapping. That way, she could record it as

Melvin wasnt foolish. He knew Felicia was trying to provoke him
With a sneer, he said. “I don’t hit women, but if you dare to touch someone I care about, you’ll definitely learn a lesson
Ever since Kayla mentioned that Felicia had slapped her twice without a second thought, Melvin had been waiting for this moment Though hitting a woman might lack decorum, he felt compelled to act in defense of Kayla, wanting to show her his genuine feelings.
