Chapter 10 The story's plot was clear : after Rosalind returned to the Crowley family , afraid it'd hurt her birth mother Freda's feelings , she never once visited the Kerrigans again until her brothers had all become successful . Sticking to the script of a wish - fulfillment heroine , Rosalind adapted quickly to life as an heiress and launched into a routine of humiliating anyone who looked at her wrong . She humiliated ignorant classmates at her elite school , put arrogant socialites in their place at fancy parties , and even shut down show - off strangers at the mall . She was either in the middle of humiliating someone or on her way to do it . She'd long forgotten all about the Kerrigan family . If the Kerrigan brothers hadn't become successful enough to be her " helpful tools " , Maeve figured they'd have lasted two chapters tops . Even Finnick , the second male lead , barely had any scenes before he became the nation's heartthrob . So ... Trying to give skincare gifts was just asking for trouble . It was just unbelievable . After breakfast , Calvin left first . He was in college and doing an internship , so he had a dorm off - campus . He'd only come home to meet his sister , and he probably wouldn't be back for a whole month . Both Finnick and Marlon attended Silverleaf High School , which was a 40 - minute bus ride away from home . So they had to leave early , too . The school had limited dorm spots , and the Kerrigans clearly couldn't afford the fees , so the two brothers had to commute , even though the round trip took up a lot of time . They packed lunch boxes with the extra food that Debra had made the day before . She'd heated them that morning so they could take them to school . Maeve didn't get a lunch box . Debra had left twenty bucks by her bedside . She probably wanted Maeve to buy her own meal , so Maeve wouldn't feel left out . Twenty bucks was a lot for the Kerrigan family . It was enough to cover several Chapter 10 208 Vouchers packed meals for the brothers . Maeve felt touched and a little emotional . The Kerrigans were poor , but they truly loved their daughter . If the fake heiress had been willing to return , maybe she wouldn't have died . She might even have lived a happy life . Harrowden High School was near Silverleaf High School and far from home , so Maeve had to leave with Finnick and Marlon . Jasper stayed home alone , and Maeve worried a little . " Is Jasper gonna be okay by himself ? " she asked . Marlon was annoyed just hearing her voice . " Stop pretending to care . Jerry will be back soon . " " Oh . " Sunnydale Apartments were about 200 meters from the nearest bus stop . Maybe on purpose , Marlon walked so fast that he quickly got far ahead of Maeve .. Maeve walked beside Finnick . He wore white earbuds and turned his head away , looking cold and distant . Maeve called out to him . Finnick turned around , annoyed . His nice - looking brows furrowed slightly . Maeve asked , " Finn , can you lend me some change ? " Bus fare had to be exact , and Debra had given her a whole twenty . She used to spend freely , but now she was broke . She had to stretch every penny . Finnick pressed his lips , pulled four one - dollar bills from his worn wallet , and handed them to her coldly , as if saying , " Troublemaker , don't talk to me again . " Maeve smiled and took them . " I'll pay you back . " Finnick replied coolly , " Don't bother . " When the bus arrived , he got on . It was packed . Maeve didn't see Marlon . She put two dollars into the fare box and pushed toward the back . She'd never expected to be riding a bus with so many people . Lucky for her , she was tough and didn't complain . Bodies pressed together , the crowd swaying . It was a rough scene . Then Maeve felt a hand grab her thigh . Instantly , she felt sick . Chapter 10 17 288 Mauchers Harrowden High School's uniform was a white shirt and a knee - length skirt . It wasn't skimpy at all . She was sure it was intentional . Being groped on her second day in this world , Maeve was furious . She turned to see who did that , but then noticed Finnick had moved beside her . His backpack wedged between her and the crowd , creating a small gap . Surprised , Maeve smiled . " Thanks , Finn . " But Finnick didn't look at her , his expression cold . She recalled the book's description of Finnick : a young idol whose smile made fans blush , but privately hot - tempered . Only Rosalind could calm his manic depression . She didn't see any signs of manic depression . He actually seemed pretty kind .
