LOGINDuring the two months that I was away for a competition, my neighbors insulted me in the neighborhood’s common group chat. [The girl living on the ninth floor, you look like a decent girl. Why are you bringing so many men back home every day?] [Can you moan a little softer? I don’t care if you’re a sex worker, but if you keep making loud noises until midnight, don’t blame me for calling the police!] [Don’t call the police yet. I haven’t had my turn. How much are you charging, Charlene?] My heart sank. Before I left for my competition, I had asked my boyfriend, Jacob Smith, to take care of my luxury river-view apartment. That way, he could keep an eye on my expensive paintings. What was happening? I rushed home in confusion, but when I opened the door, I was further dumbfounded. My 3,000-square-foot apartment had been partitioned into 30 rooms. Meanwhile, Jacob’s childhood friend, Prissy Black, was holding a string of keys as she collected rent money. When they saw me, everyone started laughing. “What? Are you here to rent from Prissy after learning that she’s providing cheap rooms in such a pristine location? “Too bad everyone knows that you’re eyeing her boyfriend. You won’t be able to benefit from doing such a thing!” I was extremely furious as I approached Jacob to talk about it. However, he told me that it was Prissy’s dream to be a landlady. He asked me not to pay it any mind and to treat it as doing a good deed. “You’re rich anyway. Don’t be so calculative. Everyone’s happy now, so what’s wrong with that?” The keys tinkled in Prissy’s hand as if they were taunting me. “This house doesn’t welcome stray animals like you. You have yourself to blame for not having such a nice boyfriend.” The two of them acted all lovey-dovey in front of me, and I immediately called the police. “Someone’s trespassing on my property, and my painting that’s worth 15 million dollars has gone missing. What type of punishment would this entail?”

I’m handing her over to you, so you can do whatever you want with her!” After that, she pushed me toward my parents forcefully, and I almost tripped. My father looked incredibly upset as he reached out to hold me. Everyone around us gasped. “He’s protecting Charlene in front of his wife. Charlene must be really good in bed.” My mother rolled her eyes and retorted, “My daughter doesn’t have to stoop so low like the rest of you. It seems that all of you need to be educated on morals!”Following the revelation, no one spoke. I held my father’s hand and smiled at my parents. “Dad, Mom, thank goodness you arrived in time. They were accusing me of being a mistress and forcing me to sign an agreement.” The dean and others from management rushed over when they heard that the country’s wealthiest man was visiting the u
I glanced at the document. It outlined that I would have to bear the cost for all the damages to my apartment. It also demanded that I compensate every student for emotional damage by paying for their air-conditioning units in their dorm rooms. Prissy could tell that I was not signing, so she stepped forward and scolded me, “We lived harmoniously in the apartment, and everyone was happy. It’s your fault that everyone has to move back to their dorms now.“Do you know how hot it is? If any student gets heatstroke, it’ll be your fault. Hurry up and sign the document. Then, order the air-conditioning units for the dorms!” I laughed in disbelief. What were these people thinking? What made them think I would follow their instructions?I tore the agreement apart and threw the papers at Prissy. “Dream on!“Jacob, Prissy, you’re the ones who trespassed on private property and caused major damage. Now, you’re humiliating me and accusing me over a few photos to threaten me into paying.
I could not help but laugh. “You used my money, and you dare question me with that attitude? Your audacity truly impresses me.“Jacob, I might’ve been blind in the past, but from now on, I’m cutting ties with you. You can either pay me back or go to prison. It’s your choice.”Jacob was breathing heavily from anger. But I left without sparing him another glance. I had won the competition’s grand prize, but I had not shared this good news with my supervisor. I was so tired from handling the mess at my apartment. After I visited my supervisor, I went to a hotel and immediately fell asleep. It was dawn when I woke up from the endless sound of notifications from my phone. I opened my text messaging app in a daze and found text messages from my best friend. [Charlene, hurry up and look at the campus forum. They’re all criticizing you![Charlene, wake up! I heard that the Student Union’s president reported you to the university and requested them to expel you!]Before I could
Prissy’s face immediately turned pale. She leaned against the wall and slowly slipped to the floor. “This wasn’t my idea. I was lied to. Why are you blaming me?”I sneered. “You can discuss among yourselves. If I don’t receive payment from you, you’ll have to go to prison!” The dumbfounded students were shocked, and their jaws dropped comically. “All of us were lied to! Jacob was using Charlene’s apartment to make himself seem rich!”“I heard that Prissy only agreed to be his girlfriend when he showed up with the deed. He’s disloyal, and she’s greedy! What a match made in hell!” “Charlene, how are you this rich? Tell us.” Someone tried to change the subject and get in my good graces by joking. I glared at them. “My wealth is none of your business. I don’t have to tell you about it.“All of you had better discuss and figure out who should be responsible for this!” After that, the police arrived. They were furious when they saw my dismantled apartment, and they broug
