Reborn to Beat the Fake Heiress System

I smiled. “We’ll see about that.”The second practice SAT came as scheduled. I scored 1550, and, just as expected, Vivian scored 1560, a little higher than me.It was the first time since entering our senior year that I hadn’t taken the top spot in the grade.The students swarming around the bulletin board went wild.“Oh my god, Vivian really wasn’t lying. She’s a genius! She passed Natalie without even trying!”Vivian stood in the center of the crowd, basking in their admiration, and envy.“I’ve said it before,” she announced proudly. “I held back before, but with the SAT coming up, of course I had to give it my all!”Meanwhile, I sat at my desk, calmly analyzing the situation.The system she was bound to always pushed her score a little higher than mine.Then an idea hit me: what if I didn’t take the exam?To test it, during the third practice, I pretended to be sick and went to the infirmary, skipping the test entirely.Sure enough, when the results came out, Vivian’s score stayed i

“Grandpa Sullivan, you’re truly blessed. Both your granddaughters are at the top of their class, maybe one of them could even become the state SAT champion!”Grandpa Sullivan stroked his cane and gave me a calm, unreadable look.“Since everyone is here today, I’ll make it official: whichever of you, Natalie or Vivian, scores higher on the SAT will be recognized as the heir groomed by the Sullivan Group.”Mrs. Whitmore beside him nodded repeatedly.“Then it’s most likely my future daughter-in-law, Vivian. After all, in the recent exams, she has consistently outscored her sister!”At that, everyone immediately crowded around Vivian.“Vivian, you’re brilliant! The position of Sullivan family heir is definitely yours.”“Wow! With the union of the Sullivan and Whitmore families, if you become the Sullivan heir, Ethan will have every right to surpass his brother and inherit the Whitmore family! This is a perfect alliance of powerhouses!”“You’re so lucky, attending a prestigious school and g

The principal nodded in agreement. “Natalie is right. If this really is a system error, we’d be wrongly accusing a student.“Why don’t we retrieve the test papers and start a live broadcast? That way, everyone can see the authenticity of the scores.”Vivian and Ethan instantly turned pale.They both knew the system could only manipulate scores; it couldn’t change what Vivian had actually written on her test paper.If the papers were reviewed, it would be irrefutable evidence of cheating.Vivian leaned in, warning me in a low voice, “I know there’s no way you could get a perfect score. You’re only at the 1550+ level. Are you sure you want to risk both of us losing?”Ethan also tried to persuade me. “Even if Vivian inherits the Sullivan Group, you’re still her sister. You won’t lose out on a lifetime of wealth and glory.”I smiled.“Ethan, you have a half-brother named Adrian. Why are you so afraid of him inheriting the Whitmore family? Scared he’ll kick out you and your mother, the one

The lawyer watched calmly as Vivian broke down in tears and repeated himself.“If you do not sign this document, the law will decide your fate. According to your birth certificate, you are about to turn nineteen.”Vivian froze. Only then did she realize she had truly been abandoned by her family.If she refused to sign, prison would be her only option.Finally, she relented.After leaving the detention center, no one knew where she went, and I didn’t care.By then, I had already received my admission letter from Yale Business School. Holding it in my hands, I went to the hospital to see my real mother.I had known since childhood that I wasn’t her biological child, that she had taken me in.For my sake, she had never married, worried that I might be wronged.All I wanted was to live with my mother. I had no intention of returning to the Sullivan family.But my mother was ill, and the surgery would cost a fortune. Grandpa Sullivan promised that if I officially recognized my Sullivan her
