[Pfft! She always looks like she's better than everyone else and is focused only on her studies. Who knew she was privately so jealous and malicious!]

When Jenny's lackeys saw the other comments accusing me, they fanned the flames by saying how I usually liked to make things difficult for Jenny, not letting her stream in the room.

It went on to the point where they started spreading rumors about me pining for Jenny's wealthy boyfriend. How I poisoned Jenny and disfigured her because I couldn't get him.

I sneered.

Ever since Jenny became an influencer, she was skipping classes and giving up on her education. Her live streams were so disruptive that I couldn't study or do my homework.

Was I in any way wrong for just reminding her a couple of times?

As for her brainless boyfriend, who only got into our school because his father was the chairman, how could I possibly fall for him?

At that thought, I logged into my account and sent out a statement.

[All of this has nothing to do with me! If there are any further slanderous rumors, I'll save them as evidence and report to the police!]

This somehow provoked everyone even more.

[I remember Eve Green spends all year in the lab extracting materials, right? She definitely has the means to poison someone!]

[Reporting to the police? You should be arrested first!]

I was so furious that I chuckled before hitting back.

[Those accusing me of poisoning, show actual evidence. If not, just shut up!]

At that, the students started to cool down a little. Some even started standing up for me.

[All those who accused Eve before even getting to the bottom of this are the embarrassment of Queenstown University!]

[Exactly! Everyone, just calm down! If she's innocent, then everyone here is an accomplice to injustice!]

Others pointed out that tomorrow was the graduation defense and that this wasn't the time to lose their heads.

[If you're arrested and miss out on your defense, you'll have to repeat another semester!]

However, all the reasonable advice was thrown out of the window by Jenny's boyfriend, Tony Jenson.

He wrote, [I'll reward anyone five million for evidence that Eve poisoned Jenny.]

The entire forum was lit ablaze.

[Damn! Five million! I wouldn't mind even staying on for three more semesters!]

[Tony Jenson in his usual element! How dominating and protective of Jenny he is! Jenny is one lucky girl to have a boyfriend like him!]

I could not help but roll my eyes.

What a clown.

Evidence? As if they could find any.

I closed the forum and returned to my thesis, adding the final data and patiently waiting for the defense the next day.

I believe that the truth will come to light once everyone sees my thesis.

However, right before I was about to head up on stage to present my thesis, Jenny, accompanied by a few police officers, barged in.

"Ms. Eve Green. Your roommate has accused you of poisoning her skincare products. Please cooperate with our investigation."

Jenny's face was wrapped in bandages, only showing her eyes, visibly in pain.

The other students and professors who saw her in such a miserable state showed her pity.

I chuckled and projected my thesis presentation on the big screen.

"Everyone, calm down. You'll understand once you see my thesis."

Over a hundred pages—

Detailing how, since freshman year, I extracted and analyzed toxic components from several herbs and recombined them.

Also, their long-term effect on healthy skin was a slow, continuous destruction that could lie dormant for up to four years, until reaching a critical point, before erupting into total decay and collapse.

And on the final pages, the supplementary evidence was unmistakable: screenshots of Jenny's face from the live stream!

At that moment, not just the students, but even the professors were stunned speechless.

Some angrily slammed the table in fury.

"Eve Green, how could you be so evil! You're a disgrace to Queenstown University!"

"Isn't your thesis a confession? You're the one who caused Jenny's disfigurement! You'll go to prison!"

"I propose that, in addition to criminal responsibility, the university should reject this thesis, expel her, and publicly denounce her!"

Blade of the Fallen: A Daughter's Retribution

For ten years, I disguised myself as my dead twin brother, fighting bloody mob wars to build the Falcone family's bootlegging empire. When the war ended, I thought I could finally take off the men's suits and be Anya again. Instead, my parents stole my victories to secure my father's power, demanding I disappear forever. When I tried to expose the truth, my family dragged me into a soundproof basement. My younger brother forced a metal funnel past my teeth and poured corrosive chemicals down my throat, dissolving my vocal cords into a blistered ruin. They chained me to a freezing pier, whipped me bloody, and let the men I used to lead spit on me as a jealous traitor. Then, under the guise of a family reconciliation dinner, my mother drugged my wine. While I lay paralyzed but fully conscious on my bed, my brother took heavy iron pliers and crushed all ten of my fingers, bone by bone. They wanted to ensure I could never hold a gun or write the truth again. I had slaughtered for them, bled for them, and craved only their love. In return, they pulverized my body and painted me as a hysterical madwoman just to keep the crown I had won for them. The foolish girl who wanted a family died in that agonizing pain, leaving behind only a ghost. Dragging my mangled, bandaged body into the rival Romano family's charity gala, I collapsed at the feet of their ruthless matriarch. "I invoke the sacred code," I rasped through my chemically burned throat. "I demand a Vendetta."

I was kneeling on the cold concrete of an abandoned warehouse, staring at a ticking timer while a masked man held a knife to my throat. My fiancé's nephew, Preston, finally burst through the door, but he wasn't alone. He was clutching my stepsister, Felicia, both of them looking frantic. The kidnapper gave Preston a brutal choice: the bomb was rigged to the door, and he could only take one woman with him. The other would stay behind to burn. Without a single second of hesitation, Preston grabbed Felicia's hand and turned his back on me. "I'm sorry, Annelise," he said, his voice flat and devoid of any real regret. He slammed the heavy iron door shut, leaving me to scream in the darkness as the flames began to roar. He didn't just leave me to die; he did it to protect his inheritance, treating me like a piece of trash that was finally being cleared from his path. Later, in the hospital, he didn't even offer an apology. Instead, he raised his hand to strike me, threatening to finish what the fire started if I dared to speak a word about his cowardice. His stepsister laughed, trying to pour scalding coffee on my face while calling me a pathetic loser who should have stayed in the warehouse. I sat there, cowering and shaking like a broken girl, letting them believe they had won. I watched their cruelty with wide, watery eyes, wondering how they could be so blind to the monster they were provoking. What Preston didn't know was that the entire kidnapping was a performance I had choreographed myself, and every second of his betrayal was recorded in 4K. Now, I've successfully moved into the manor of the real king-his uncle, Francesco Lancaster. He thinks he's rescued a wounded bird, but he's actually invited a world-class predator into his home. The game is no longer about survival; it's about total destruction.

Reborn To Save My Broken Lover

I was dying in a cold hospital bed, listening to the monitor count down my final seconds. As a ghost, I watched my own funeral. My popular friends and wealthy family soon moved on, but one person stayed. Cas Riley. The invisible outcast from the back of my history class. He brought a white rose to my grave every single day, withering away until he collapsed on the frozen ground, dying of a broken heart for a girl who barely knew his name. Opening my eyes again, the hospital smell was gone. I was reborn back in my high school classroom. I immediately tracked him down, only to witness the brutal hell he was trapped in. He was humiliated by a cruel foreman for pennies, violently slapped by his uncle over his sick mother's medical money, and forced into bloody street fights. He was starving, covered in bruises, and completely alone. When I tried to buy him medicine and step into his life to protect him, he violently pushed me away in the pouring rain. "Stay out of my life! To protect you, I have to fight, and when I fight, I lose everything!" He wasn't rejecting me out of hate. He was terrified that his dark, violent reality would drag me down with him. Standing soaked in the rain, my resolve hardened like steel. Gentle kindness wasn't going to save him from this hell. To protect the boy who died for me, I had to become ruthless enough to tear down his entire rotten world and build him a new one.
