At the celebration, the pampered heiress in Crownridge, Aveline Sage, confessed her love for me in front of the entire school. I turned her down flat. I was one of the Sage family's candidates—handpicked top students from every state—to improve their next generation's genes. In a few days, when the exam results came out, whoever earned the highest national score would become her fiance. For three years straight, I had been ranked first in the country. In my previous life, I achieved that top score. I got engaged to Aveline and became the envy of everyone—the son-in-law of Crownridge's most powerful family. But on the day of our engagement, her first love, Caspian Lorne, jumped off the top of the Sage Group building. His body was shattered beyond recognition. Aveline hired the best mortician to restore his face and placed him in a crystal coffin, where she slept beside him every night. During our honeymoon, she brought Caspian's body along, then kissed and clung to him right in front of me. When I confronted her, she looked at me with disgust. "The Sage family sponsored your education for twelve years. You knew Caspian and I were in love. Couldn't you let him win just once? You've been in first place for twelve years. What would it have cost you to lose? You ruined his future, ruined our love. You deserve to die." She drugged me, turned me into a fool with the mind of a three-year-old. I couldn't recognize my parents. I lost control of my own body. And I died in agony. … Then, I opened my eyes again, back on the morning of the exam. Last time, I beat Caspian by a single point. This time, I left an answer blank. Let him be the top scorer. Let him marry her. I hoped they grew old together, with plenty of children to match their love.

The Scholar and the Mafia Princess Chapter 9 The Fall of the Heiress
The crowd was stunned when a handful of private photos were hurled into their faces. As people picked them up one by one, they froze. The woman in every single picture was Aveline.Evander's face went pale. Realizing his daughter had completely lost control, he rushed onto the stage, grabbed her by the arm, and shouted, "Aveline! Enough of this madness! Are you trying to destroy what's left of our family's reputation? Do you still want anyone to marry you after this?"In the chaos, Tobias tried to slip away, but Clara's bodyguards caught him and tied him up right there in the audience.Moments later, the police arrived. They detained everyone involved—including Aveline, who was charged with disturbing public order.Before they led her away, she signaled to the police that she wanted a word with me. After all, she was from the Sage family, and they donated so much to the city every year, so the officers gave her the courtesy.With handcuffs glinting under the lights, she stumbled
The Scholar and the Mafia Princess Chapter 8 The Fall of Lies
Caspian's face drained of color the moment he saw his lover being dragged onto the stage.Orlena's clothes were torn, bruises mottled her arms and face, and she whispered, trembling, "Caspian, please. Help me…"Caspian immediately tried to distance himself. "Ms. Frost, what do you want from me?"The room fell into stunned silence. Everyone's eyes locked onto the unfolding drama.Aveline lifted her hand and delivered two sharp slaps across Orlena's face in quick succession. "You filthy slut! Spill everything you've done!"Caspian instinctively tried to flee, but Clara's bodyguards pinned him down. "Mr. Lorne, this is the school's anniversary. Where do you think you're going?"Sweat poured down Caspian's face, his body trembling violently, his face pale as chalk.Orlena hesitated, glancing nervously at the crowd of high-society spectators. Seeing her stall, Aveline stepped on her back with her stiletto heel. "You worthless liar! Speak! If you've got the guts, tell the truth! If
The Scholar and the Mafia Princess Chapter 7 A Dangerous Game
After Aveline left, Clara flopped into my arms, soft and fragrant."Miles, you're not going to forgive her, are you?" she asked.I pressed a kiss to her hair and said firmly, "Of course not. I saved your life, Clara. You owe me a lifetime of repayment."Years ago, Clara had an argument with her father and, out of spite, jumped into the river. She was a strong swimmer but pretended she couldn't move, splashing and crying for help. Unaware of the act, I dove in.In the end, she saved me. And somehow, I got all the credit for heroism.After that, she wouldn't leave me alone, relentlessly chasing me. However, my mind was always on Aveline.The morning the scores were released, Clara discovered I hadn't claimed the top spot. She'd already learned about Tobias and the others' bets—Tobias had put money on me being first, and he lost. Thanks to her one call, I barely survived. Otherwise, I would've been crushed.She even promised to sponsor me for Briarwood University, so I wouldn't emb
The Scholar and the Mafia Princess Chapter 6 Shattered Facades
Aveline drove straight to Caspian's luxury penthouse downtown. She had bought it for him.Caspian had told her he'd be home after the banquet to study, still bitter about being outshone by me.But when Aveline reached the front door, she froze. From inside came unmistakable sounds of passion between a man and a woman."Ms. Frost, I heard you won a hundred million dollars in that bet. I want a yacht. Will you get it for me?"It was Caspian, whining like a spoiled child.And his partner in this scandalous display? None other than Orlena Frost, the vice principal, who was nearly fifty."You're hopeless. You can't beat Miles, so I had to rig things for you! Am I not being good to you? And you haven't been with that Aveline girl lately, have you?""That brat can't compare to your charm, Ms. Frost! This is perfect. I'll marry the heiress, and you'll become the principal soon. We'll make a fortune!"Another wave of moans and ragged breaths reached her ears.Aveline felt as if her leg
