Chapter 14 Kyle froze . Maeve continued leisurely , " I'm not a rich heiress anymore . I can barely afford meals . Honestly , I had to borrow change just to take the bus today . If you're not interested , that's fine . " Kyle roared instantly , " I'm in . " 750 dollars for a shot at becoming a top student . What a steal ! For someone like him who could easily spend 750 dollars on a single meal , Maeve seemed so kind . Other struggling students overheard and erupted , " Maeve , how could you sell your intellectual treasure for just 750 dollars ? I'll give you 1,500 . " " I offer 3,000 dollars ! " " I'll pay 7,500 dollars . " They kept competing . The classroom descended into chaos . Maeve's phone buzzed repeatedly . Some added her through the class group chat . Some transferred money directly to her . Rosalind sat at her seat , packing her bag , stunned . Only one thought crossed her mind : " Have these rich kids lost their minds ? " Who would spend that much on a notebook ? But at the same time , her face darkened . Maeve said she'd make money , and she actually did . Did that mean Maeve would keep studying at Harrowden High School ? And she'd rather sell her notes to others than tutor her . Maeve hated her . Within ten minutes , both notebooks that Maeve had copied the night before were 06:58 Chapter 14 sold . She'd made 3,000 dollars . She was very satisfied . 1288 Wouchers Kyle , who bought the first notebook , clung to his " exam guide " , afraid someone might snatch it . Another student , who'd secured the second copy thanks to a quick transfer , proudly displayed the notebook for all to see . The notebooks were handwritten , yet the characters were so elegant . Even the coordinate axes she drew looked nicer than theirs . They were worlds apart . They really wanted to keep them as treasures . Half an hour later , the classroom was deserted . Maeve needed to head home , too . Harrowden High School didn't have evening study sessions . Teachers ended class as punctually as cuckoo clocks . If students wanted good grades , they had to put in extra effort on their own . Maeve packed her bag , slung it loosely over her shoulder , and was about to leave when someone stopped her . Without even looking up , she said tonelessly , " Something else ? " Rosalind's eyes were filled with hurt , making her look rather pitiful . " Why can't we be friends ? We switched places , but it wasn't my fault . Maeve , we don't have to be hostile toward each other . " Maeve looked at her , both annoyed and amused . " When have I been hostile ? " Was it because the math teacher called me up to help you solve the problem and embarrassed you ? Or because I refused to tutor you ? " Rosalind , I don't want to be friends because we're not the same kind of people . That's all . " Rosalind felt humiliated , retorting , " Haven't you been angry at all that I took your place ? You clearly ... " " No. " Maeve met her gaze her eves clear and calm . " I never cared about being part of a wealthy family . If you want it , it's yours . " After all , she had had her fill of a luxury life . Now she just wanted an ordinary life . Chapter 14 788 Vouchers Rosalind was left speechless , feeling strangely humble . Even though she was the real heiress , it somehow felt like she'd stolen this identity . Why ? Why did it feel this . way ? " Good luck on the monthly test . I hope you do well . " With that , Maeve stepped around her and left . *** Harrowden High School didn't have an evening study session , but Silverleaf High School did . Silverleaf students were famous for working hard . They didn't get out of school till 9 PM . They took a lot of exams . The school had even been on the city news . Almost every year , the top scorers in the state SAT came from Silverleaf High School . Maeve had great respect for the school . She decided to wait for Finnick and Marlon so they could go home together . She wandered around near Silverleaf High School , familiarizing herself with the area , and bought some kabobs and two ice cream bars . The ice cream was undoubtedly for Finnick . The kabobs were for Jasper and the others . They rarely got to enjoy snacks like this . They'd probably love them . Maeve checked her phone . It was about time to head toward Silverleaf High School . As she passed a narrow alley , she caught the sharp scent of blood . The clang of a metal pipe hitting the ground echoed , and stray dogs barked wildly . Clearly , something bad was happening in that alley . 06 58
