Trillion Dollar Baby

" I'm taking the girls in my car and you guys go in Ambrose's car " Katherine orders and we all nod our heads.

We get into Katherine's car and I sit in the back while they both sit in the front.

" so tell me Mia how is it exactly you got to know the boys, they don't talk to just anyone you know " Matilda says actually wanting to know without leading Katherine on.

" I'm not sure actually, my first interactions were with Ambrose "

" Mia Shenai , heir to Shenai and Bermin INC. networth of 700 billion dollars. Want to tell me why your pretending to be poor " Katherine asks and my mouth hangs open and I noticed Matilda's mouth does the same.

" how did you k- "

" oh please I know every rich person ..... I also met you last year " Katherine says with a duh look on her face.

" where ?!? " I ask.

" Ocenica Ball " and as soon as the words leave her mouth I facepalm. I do remember meeting Katherine.

" i don't know why , it just happened and honestly I like it. No fakes " I explain and fall back into my seats.

" I also know you from how much Matilda talks about you "  I look at Matilda with wide eyes and she sinks embarrassed in her seat.

" please don't tell me you've mentioned me before to any of the boys " I tell her.

" of course not ! " she pauses " I think "

" Matti! "

" look Mia it's fine you've been going to school with them for a while and they don't recognize you "

" yeah your right, let's just go to the restaurant " I tell them and they nod.

" So tell me Mia, how exactly does no one recognize you at your school " Katherine asks.

" Well, I'm always kept out of the media and news and my brother is usually the one to get all the attention. Not that I mind " I tell them and Katherine just keeps her eyes  on the road and Matilda looks back at me in awe. I haven't seen her in a while.

" So how'd you meet the boys " mati asks.

" uhh well I kind of had this complicated thing with Ambrose " I say and notice Katherine's hands tighten around the steering wheel.

" why would Ambrose take interest in you " she asks looking at me from mirror.

" well because I didn't take interest in him " she stayed quiet.

" does anyone at school know your secret "

" only one girl , Casey. The rest are too busy having egos bigger than their heads "

We pulled in and before we got out to give the car to vallet I asked them both to keep my secret quiet. Matti nodded.

" I don't like this but I'm never one to snitch " Katherine stays and get out of the car. Me and Matilda follow her into the restaurant.

I've been to this restaurant before with my mother. Good food, great atmosphere, rich people and I hope none of them recognize me.

The restaurant was empty and I figured it's because they rented it out to be on their own and I'm not complaining about that.

We sat down and ordered our food.

" How's school " Matilda asks

" horrible that you're not with us " Sebastian pouted like a sad puppy.
