Chapter 207
This year, more than thirty transfer students joined Central Academy.
Among them were five girls with the last name Hayes. Judging by their backgrounds and the way they dressed, they all seemed equally privileged, making it impossible to tell which one was the real heiress of the Hayes family.
Even though Grace was eager to befriend the Hayes heiress, she had no idea who to approach. If she picked the wrong girl, she’d not only waste her time but also risk her own reputation.
Elegance Residences wasn’t just one of the many properties owned by the Hayes family—it was also the most exclusive development in town, a tier above even Willow Manor.
Rumor had it that, after moving from The Port Metropolis to Silverhaven, the Hayes family had settled in Elegance Residences.
That was why Grace was trying to get information from Laurel.
The moment she brought this up, Bonnie perked up her ears, listening intently.
After all, they were talking about the Hayes heiress.
A true member of high society.
Even if you combined everything Laurel and Grace had, they still couldn’t compare to a single Hayes heiress!
If Bonnie could find out anything about her, she’d have the first chance to get close and become her best friend.
And once they were best friends, the Hayes heiress would surely bring her into the world of the elite, introduce her to the heirs of wealthy families.
Then, marrying into a wealthy family and becoming a society wife would just be a matter of time.
Most importantly, Bonnie had heard that Celeste had an older brother.
He was currently studying abroad, set to inherit the family business. If Bonnie managed to befriend the Hayes heiress, maybe she could even marry her brother and become the lady of the Hayes family.
The more Bonnie thought about it, the more excited she became.
Laurel shook her head. “No, not at all. Not only have I never heard about the Hayes heiress, but there isn’t even a single resident named Hayes in our owners’ group chat p>
Not a single Hayes in the entire Elegance Residences community group.
Both Grace and Bonnie looked disappointed.
They’d hoped Laurel could at least describe the mysterious heiress, but apparently, she knew nothing either.
After a pause, Laurel seemed to remember something. “Oh, right, I heard the
Hayes heiress’s name is Ce… something p>
“Ce… what?” Grace asked immediately.
Bonnie also turned to Laurel, eyes wide.
Laurel continued, “I can’t remember exactly. My mom overheard it while chatting with some of the other ladies, so I’m not even sure if it’s accurate p>
Suddenly, Bonnie’s face lit up. “If that’s true, I think there’s actually a transfer student named Celeste Hayes p>
Since she’d been determined to get close to the Hayes heiress, Bonnie had checked the names of all five Hayes girls when the school released the transfer list.
“Celeste?” Grace narrowed her eyes. “What does she look like p>
Bonnie shook her head slightly. “I don’t really know. But I heard she was placed in Class One p>
A flicker of interest flashed in Grace’s eyes.
Laurel stayed silent.
Each of the three girls was lost in her own thoughts.
That evening, after classes ended, Ms. Belinda asked Caitlin to come to her office.
“Ms. Belinda, did you need something p>
Ms. Belinda couldn’t help smiling as she looked at Caitlin. “Caitlin, the principal must have already spoken to you about giving the speech for the senior class, right p>
“He did,” Caitlin nodded politely.
“Have you finished your speech draft?” Ms. Belinda asked.
“Yes, it’s ready,” Caitlin replied.
“Good. Practice it tonight, and you’ll deliver it during the assembly tomorrow morning p>
