The 100 Billion Heir Shocked Everyone After Being Ridiculed1
"Mom, just send me one point five; three is too much," I said, sitting on my dorm bed during a video call with my mother, Elodie Quentin.
"It's fine, sweetie," Elodie replied, "I just sold some fish today and made five."
My roommate walked in just then, overhearing the conversation.
From that point on, she spread the word that I was just a fish seller's daughter.
She even told everyone that, despite my apparent wealth, I was struggling to make ends meet and that my tuition and living expenses were all funded by my parents' fish sales.
What she didn't know was that Elodie's "five" actually meant five million.
Elodie ran a seafood import-export business with hundreds of branches across the country, pulling in billions in net profit every year.
And my dad, Quentin, wasn't just any celebrity; he was a sought-after heartthrob and the hottest leading man in the entertainment industry.

"Mom, just send me one point five; three is too much," I said.
