Cedric Reyes has a secret, he is the heir and eldest son of the rich and powerful Reyes clan. As tradition all heirs of their family have to go through a form of poverty training at the age of fifteen. They are left to fend for themselves with no contact and barely any money. Since leaving, he's gotten married to Adrianna Herandez, the Treasure of the Hernandez clan. Adrianna's family had always looked down at him due to his humble origins, but Adrianna has always stuck by him. Treated badly by his classmates in the past, and his in law in the present. They are about to encounter the shock of their lives. The Reyes Heir rules the country with his friends, the four princes, who are each from powerful and well respected families.

They walked up the stage to the thunderous applause of the crowd. Cedric looked around at the audience and smirked.
Most of the people clapping for him had looked down at him in the past. He remembered the auction, not so long ago where many of the upper class assumed he sold Adrianna off for position.
How fickle of them to think that.
"What's with the smirk?" Ram asked in a low voice.
"I just remembered something." Cedric said with a shrug.
"These people." Ram said, shaking his head. "They praise us to our faces but talk down at us when our backs are turned."
"They are just jealous." Francesca said with a shrug.
"Mr. Reyes, would you grace us with a speech?" The host asked as he gestured towards the podium.
"Don't be immature." Ram said as Cedric walked past him.
Cedric couldn't help but laugh a bit. Of course he wouldn't call out those people in public. He just planned to make them feel ashamed of themselves.
