The tycoons's hidden heir

Ophelia is in trouble

Ophelia is in trouble

Jul 07, 2025

Entering the room, Willson realized he might have over thought things. Phoebe had already set up a meal on the dining table.

"Why did you suddenly decide to invite me for dinner?" Willson asked softly.

"I was in a good mood today and wanted to share it with someone. But I don't have any friends here, so I called you over!" Phoebe replied with a cheerful smile. She then recounted the events that had happened during her live-stream earlier. Willson listened quietly, occasionally feigning surprise, as Phoebe had no idea that the generous benefactor she was talking about was actually him.

"I wonder who that 'Gone with the Wind' guy really is? How old is he?" Phoebe mused aloud while nibbling on some snacks.

"Just a rich guy," Willson replied nonchalantly.

"Of course, he must be rich. Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent me so many gifts. You have no idea, when he was showering me with gifts in the live-stream, I was really moved. If he's handsome, I wouldn't mind marrying him!" Phoebe said softly.Willson was taken back by her words and then asked gently, "Do all girls like rich guys?"

"Who says that? I don't like rich guys!" Phoebe quickly retorted.

"Then why were you moved by that rich guy?" Willson asked softly.

"I was moved because he helped me out!" Phoebe explained seriously, looking at Willson.

"Helped you out?" Willson frowned slightly.

"Yeah, a year ago I ran away from home. I've been struggling on my own ever since, feeling lonely and helpless. I don't have many skills, so I became a streamer to make some money to support myself. But I never intended to sell my dignity for streaming. I have my limits. Many people have bullied me, but no one has ever helped me. 'Gone with the Wind' was the first person to help me online," Phoebe said slowly.

"Why did you run away from home?" Willson asked softly, taken aback"It's... it's nothing!" Phoebe replied dismissively, then looked at Willson and said, "Enough about me. Let's talk about you. I don't even know your name yet!"

Willson gave a brief introduction of himself and then shared his story with Ophelia.

Both Phoebe and Willson were alone in this city. Although Phoebe's life was slightly better than Willson's, they found common ground and chatted while eating.

It wasn't until past 2 a.m. that Willson returned to his room and collapsed into bed.

The next morning at 8 a.m., Willson was awakened by the sound of his phone ringing.

Still half a sleep, he answered the call and said softly, "Hello?"

"Willson, are you crazy? Why aren't you at the campus yet? The first class today is with our homeroom teacher. Why aren't you here?" Graham shouted anxiously.

"I slept late last night..." Willson replied helplessly before hanging up and starting to get dressed.Willson was in the university, where many classes could be skipped, but he dared not miss his homeroom teacher's class. If that 'witch' found out he was skipping, the consequences could be terrible.

Yes, the 'witch'.

In Willson's eyes, his university lecturer was like an enchanting fairy.

Half an hour later, Willson hurriedly ran into the Lecture hall, only to find that the class had already started. He gently knocked on the door.

"Come in!" A melodious voice called out.Willson pushed open the door and looked helplessly at the woman standing at the podium, who indeed looked like a fairy.

Today, she was wearing a white cheongsam (a traditional Chinese dress), which showed her tall, curvy, and seductive figure. The dress made her allure even more irresistible. Her delicate, enchanting face was lightly made up, her eyes were captivating, and her lips, painted with a soft pink lipstick, were sensually inviting. The dress hugged her enticing hips, and her long, slender legs were exposed to the air, ending in a pair of white high heels.

This woman was none other than Willson's university advisor, Hailey.

"Why are you late?" Hailey's beautiful and seductive eyes scanned Willson up and down, her tone slightly impatient.

"Why? He probably ran out of money after treating us to dinner last night and had to go collecting scraps!" James shouted loudly.

"Hahaha..." The class erupted in laughter."Did I ask you? Why can't you keep your mouth shut?" Hailey snapped back.

Lecture room teacher Hailey turned her head and glared fiercely at James, reprimanding him in a cold voice.

James immediately shut his mouth upon hearing this. It was rumored that Hailey had a powerful background, and ordinary students didn't dare to provoke her.

"Miss Hailey, I needed to take care of something personal," Willson said, looking at her.

"Get out and stand in the hallway. If this happens again, you'll fail the class!" Hailey said expressionlessly.

"Okay," Willson nodded lightly, then turned and walked out of the classroom.

Standing alone in the hallway, Willson began to reflect on everything that had happened to him that day. It all seemed so unbelievable. Just that morning, he had been dumped by Ophelia for being broke, and by the afternoon, he had become a trillionaire.

The feeling was surreal and almost magical to Willson."I wonder what Ophelia would think if she knew I had so much money now," Willson couldn't help but muse to himself.

"Ring, ring, ring..."

The bell signaling the end of lecture rang, and Hailey, in her high heels, gracefully walked out of the lecture hall. She gave Willson a once over and, squinting her eyes, said softly, "Willson Jacks, go to the administration office at 3 pm today and help me carry some things to my dorm. Got it?"

"Got it," Willson nodded lightly.

"If you're late again, you'll see what I'll do to you!" With that, Hailey swayed her hips as she walked away into the distance.

Willson returned to the classroom with a look of resignation. Upon entering, he noticed that Ophelia, Farrah and Taylor were nowhere to be seen.

"Willson, where have you been? You dare to be late for Miss Hailey's class?" Graham whispered to Willson.

"I stayed up a bit late last night and couldn't get up this morning..." Willson explained softly.

"Did you win the lottery and forget who you are?" Tyree chuckled, then added, "How much did you win?""Not much, just a hundred thousand," Willson replied nonchalantly.

"What? A hundred thousand is not much? That's a lot!" Tyree exclaimed in surprise.

Willson wasn't in the mood to discuss this with Tyree and Graham. He quickly scanned the classroom and asked quietly, "By the way, why aren't  Ophelia, Farrah and Taylor here?"

"Oh, you probably don't know yet. Last night, after we left the hotel, James's dad came over to pay the bill himself and even slapped James in front of everyone. Ophelia and the other girls got into some trouble at the hotel. The other party has some connections and knows some local thugs. This morning, they took Ophelia and the others away. James probably would go to rescue them," Graham quickly explained.

"Ever since Ophelia started hanging out with James, she's been acting all high and mighty. I heard she even hit the other party, but who knew they had such strong connections!" Tyree added.

"Heh..." Willson couldn't help but chuckle at this but said nothing more.
