Chapters

Chapter 3

Students all around me erupted in excitement, jumping to their feet and applauding.

Satisfaction flickered in Jenny's eyes as she looked at me smugly and provocatively.

Tony, who was by her side, went forward and called out to his father, Richard Jenson, the chairman of the university.

He said to Richard, "Dad, of course, Eve Green should be punished. But because of her, Jenny can't even attend her graduation defense. Shouldn't she be compensated for it?"

Looking at their exchanging of glances, I knew they planned this all in advance.

Sure enough, Richard paused for two seconds before suggesting, "Why don't we exempt Jenny from the graduation defense altogether and directly recommend her for a postgraduate admission?"

The people around him nodded at him ingratiatingly, their faces filled with flattery.

"We agree!"

The students smiled too, claiming that justice might come late, but it will always arrive.

Some already secretly took their phones out to live-stream the entire incident, asking Jenny's fans to watch how she demanded justice.

The police officers walked over to me.

"Then, you'll have to come with us to the station!"

I calmly reached out my hand.

"Hold on a moment."

Rolling up my sleeve, I showed a small patch of decayed skin on my hand.

"Who said the data in my thesis came from experimenting on Jenny? This all came from me!"

I added, "As for the screenshots on the final page, I only added them yesterday after seeing her live stream. That's when I realized she was stealing and using my skincare products for four years, so I included it as supplementary material."

Everyone was baffled to see my exposed wound.

Jenny's eyes widened in bafflement, clearly also panicking a little.

"Impossible! You must have faked your injury yesterday to clear your name!"

I chuckled as I scrolled through my presentation, showing the photos of the progress of my skin on my arm. Each photo was labeled clearly with the time, location, and what I applied to that part of the skin.

"If you still don't believe me, you can search the security footage of the labs."

The police officers hesitated a little when they saw how confident I was. They turned to look at Jenny.

"Did you really steal and use Eve's experimental skincare products? Don't lie. Every word you say carries legal responsibility!"

Jenny denied vehemently, "It was Eve who secretly poisoned my skincare products!"

I was waiting for her to say that.

I instantly laughed.

"Jenny, the experimental skincare products that I came up with has a special smell. If I mixed it into your luxury skincare products, you would smell it immediately!

"You have used it for four whole years without realizing it. Could it be that you have never really used a real luxury brand and that you're just pretending to be rich, which is why you don't know about it?"

Facing my questions, everyone instantly looked at Jenny.

"Yes, don't you remember, when Jenny first appeared at the university, she was dark and looked very much like a country girl. It was only later that she slowly became beautiful!"

"Yes. In fact, I always thought that Eve looks better than her, but Eve is focused on her studies, so she doesn't care much about dressing up."

"So, the truth is that Jenny stole her rich roommate's skincare product, but stole the wrong one and ruined her face?"

Jenny froze on the spot, looking extremely frantic and anxious.

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.
