Riches in Disguise novel Chapter 44

I pulled out my phone and opened OnlyKitties to show Felicia my account and all the transaction history I made on the platform. Her eyes widened, and she gasped. "It really is you! But… but…"

"But what? You thought I was broke, vain, and only wore knockoffs?" I could not help but smile.

I wanted to reveal my true identity but decided against it. If I told Felicia, I feared she would be unable to keep the secret.

While I did not mind if others found out, I was worried about my three roommates—they might become uncomfortable around me, hesitate to ask for help when needed, and eventually, our friendship would drift apart.

So, I simply explained, "Actually, I received prize money from that entrepreneurship competition, and I decided to spend it on you."

Felicia's eyes widened in surprise. "Oh, that competition where you won first place! The prize was 50 thousand dollars right?"

"Yeah." I nodded.

"And you... you gave me over 20 thousand dollars? More than half of it? Thank you so much." Felicia was clearly touched and at a loss for words.

I could understand her reaction. After all, no one in their right mind would take 50 thousand dollars in prize money and donate almost 28 thousand dollars to a streamer they did not even know personally.

"Let me treat you to a meal then!" she offered.

"Sure," I agreed.

Since breaking up with Lina, this was my first time eating alone with a girl, and I felt a bit excited. Especially after seeing Felicia's streaming outfit and her curvy figure last night, I could not help but feel a bit distracted.

At the restaurant, I tried to control my wandering eyes and focused on ordering food instead.
