[Why do Connor and Diana look like a high-powered CEO and his little songbird?]
[Isn't this straight out of a billionaire romance novel? The age gap, forbidden love, I'm all in!]
[Just imagine when they get married-Diana will switch from calling him Uncle Connor to hubby. So juicy!]
Diana managed to catch up with Chloe. "Chloe, you looked so cool setting up that tent earlier."
Diana's praise was genuine and enthusiastic. Chloe had set up the tent with such precision and flair.
Chloe was a striking beauty, so Diana expected her to act like those untouchable celebrities.
But Chloe was anything but pretentious. Despite looking as stunning as a rose, she had a down-to-earth charm. Diana couldn't help but admire her. Chloe was a bit surprised that Diana had approached her.
She took in Diana's delicate, almost doll-like face with its innocent charm and felt a mix of emotions.
Didn't Diana know about her and Connor?
Had she never questioned Connor's strange behavior?
But then again, it made sense. Diana was just a student, still sheltered by campus life - a figurine kept under Connor's protective glass.
Connor had probably molded her entire worldview. Whatever he said, she'd believe without question.
Oddly enough, Chloe felt a pang of pity for Diana because so much was kept from her.
Connor had spun her a dreamy fairy tale. She was like a princess waiting for her prince, naive and kind-hearted.NôvelDrama.Org © content.
But her prince wasn't immune to the temptations of the real world. If Chloe had known about Diana, she would never have gotten involved with Connor.
"Do you need something?" Chloe asked, trying to keep her distance. Her voice was cool and detached.
Diana's warm effort hit a wall, and disappointment flickered in her eyes. "No... it's nothing. I just wanted to be friends."
"I'm sorry, Diana," Chloe replied. "We live in different worlds. I'm not interested in playing make-believe."
Diana hadn't expected such a cold
response. Over the years, people had
flocked to be her friend, but she knew most were drawn to her Gilbert family name or Connor's status.
True friends were rare, and this was the first time she had genuinely wanted to befriend someone. But she was turned down, no holds barred. Tears welled up in her eyes.

[Seriously, what's Chloe's deal? Our precious Diana wants to be friends, and she can't see how lucky she is.]
[Don't cry, sweetheart. Who even is Chloe? Diana is the elite Miss Eldridge, a rising star in showbiz. Who cares about Chloe's attitude?]
[Friendship goes both ways. I
actually respect Chloe for not sucking up. There's no law saying you have to be friends just because someone's rich.]
[Maybe Chloe's taking out her issues with Connor on Diana.]
[Chloe's just being a jerk. Forget her.]
[Why is "Lisaflower" going off? They've posted eight hundred comments in a minute, all bashing Chloe.]
Lisaflower: [Chloe is a b****, a b****, a b****!!!]
At that moment, the other group of
contestants returned from gathering
food and fresh water. They no
e
longer looked as fresh and pristine as before.
Faith led the way, panting, with smeared makeup and her dress torn in places.
