The day I got my acceptance letter from Oxford, my dad's illegitimate daughter, Hazel, suddenly showed up to brag that the boy I liked had proposed to her. I didn't take it seriously. I brought a cake I'd baked to see Nolan and joked about what she said. To my surprise, Nolan tossed my cake into the trash. "It's true. Hazel and I are engaged. "You know your dad doesn't care about you, and none of that family money is ever going to be yours. My career is taking off, so I can't marry you. "But don't worry. I'll make sure you're taken care of." As he reached for my hand, I took a step back and sneered. What he didn't know was that my father didn't control any of the family shares. They all belong to my grandfather. And there was only one condition to inherit them. Getting into Oxford.
