She Wanted Him, But He Was Already Taken 33
She fell for him the moment he walked into her first-year classroom—the new transfer student, charismatic and confident, an heir who seemed to belong to a different world entirely. That was the problem. The gap between their families, and the insecurities it fed, kept her quiet for three long years. So she buried the crush and poured everything into one goal: getting into his university. Even then, she never let herself hope they'd cross paths again. But he showed up anyway—in her life, watching over her, spoiling her with an affection she didn't know how to hold. Every day it grew harder to hide what she felt. She almost believed she was lucky. Then she found out he had a girlfriend.
