Chapter 1

I grew up pampered, always held in the palm of my family's hand.

On the first day of college, my bodyguards carried two suitcases into my dorm room.

I stood at the doorway, glanced around, and said:

"Keep the AC on 24/7, I'll cover the electricity bill."

"I'm a light sleeper, so no noise after 11 PM."

"Wipe down the bathroom every time you use it, I'm a germaphobe."

"I can't do heavy lifting. I'll pay you $100 to pick up my packages."

My three roommates exchanged confused glances.

I looked at them and added:

"No offense, it's just my first time living in a dorm, so I'm laying out the rules upfront to avoid any drama later."

Then I pulled out the welcome gifts I'd prepared: a Chanel bag for each of them.

"Thanks for your understanding."

Their eyes lit up, and they exclaimed, "From now on, you're our Lady Boss!"

But then, one girl named Sophia Miller started acting up.

She told people behind my back that my gifts were charity, that I looked down on her.

"She thinks a little money and a few designer items can make me her slave. I might be poor, but I have pride!"

Even more absurdly, my fiancé, Ethan Hayes, flew all the way back from abroad just to defend her.

"Evie, can't you dial it back a little? Sophia doesn't come from money, how can she pay you back for such expensive gifts?"

"Can you please change your arrogant attitude? Stop acting like the whole world revolves around you."

I watched him standing protectively in front of Sophia, and suddenly, I smiled.

If you all think I'm a bully, then I'll show you what a real heiress can do.
