Chapter 22
Helen suddenly collapsed to the ground, panic–stricken and fearful while everyone’s phones rang in unison.
The last message had already been a bombshell, but as they opened the new one, collective shock spread like wildfire.
The overlapping audio blared out, creating a cacophony that made faces flush with embarrassment and disbelief
“It really is Helen!” Everyone glanced between their phones and Helen, exclaiming, “I can’t believe she did such a thing!”
“You can’t judge a book by its cover!”
“I never thought she was into that.”
“This is 100 much for me!
“I can’t believe it! Ive idolized her for three years, and here she is
Tse abo chased her for three years, luckily she didn’t agree, or my whole life would have been ruined.”
“No wonder my mom told me to stay away from her. It all makes sense now,”
“This is disgusting I can’t believe I’ve been friends with someone like her for three years.”
“She should be expelled from school?”
The gossip went on and on
Lea watched coldly at Helen on the ground. Those who once alinired her, pursued her, fawned upon her, and called her sister and best friend, now all ridiculed her, despised her, and cursed her, just as Lea had once suffered. Yet Lea endured it for three full years, suffering a million times more.
Helen felt as if these voices were stinging her eardrums Eike needles. She couldn’t take it anymore. She wanted to escape, to break through this einlemenil
Just as she struggled to rive, Lea seized her chin, forcing her to look up. “Helen, this is just the beginning. You better take it all in. Don’t break down 100 sour, or it won’t be any funt”

i stood frozen, her gaze locked on the “demon” before her, suddenly pushing Lea away and running for her life.
Lea’s voice rang out. Helen, the mock exams are coming up. Where are you going? Do you think by not taking the exam, you can hide the fact that I’ve been taking your exams for the past three years? IF I get the top score this time, everyone will know.”
Upon hearing these words, Helen ran even faster, leading her to slip on her steps and tumble down the staircase.
Lucky for her. There weren’t many stairs,
she only had minor scrapes. She got up and continued to run down.
Lea turned around, walking to the classroom door under the watchful eyes of dozens of students. She fixed a piercing gaze on the few still blocking
the doorway.
They were part of Helen’s elaque, ready to act together to expel Lea from the school
exam. No one had expected things to turn out this way.

Leading the front
it was Shannon, with a delicate and radiant face, exuding an elusive sharpness,
She and Lily were Helen’s right and left hands, ready to fight for Helen in any situation.
She cast a deep, inscrutabile glance at Lea, then turned away with a faint air of indifference.
The others fled like startled birds, hurrying to their seats as quickly as possible. They were frightened, disbelieving that Lea had driven Helen into
They usually just bluff and bully. Now that even Helen couldn’t withstand it, minor figures like them were surely no match for Lea.
They couldn’t help but wonder what if Lea were to seek revenge on them. After all, they had bullied her for three years.
Each one of them kept their heads down, afraid to meet her gaze,

“Did you all just hear that? Lea said she’s going to score full marks, get the top scorer some bold students started.
“Three years of zero scores, and now she says she’ll get a perfect score. Is she insane!”
“And she said she’s been taking exams for Helen for three years.”
“Is this real
“Can you believe it?”
No one dared believe it, and they were all eager to see what would unfold next.
The bell rang for class, and everyone filed into the classroom, taking their seats.
Lea’s seat was at the very back, on the far left, the worst spot in the class, while the seat in front of hers, Helen’s, was empty.
Helen had always scored top marks, securing the privilege to choose her seat, but she chose to sit here, claiming to take care of Lea but actually to keep an eye on her.
After all, Lea was a genius, capable of developing an artificial brain, surpassing even the scientists at Berry Group and Fraley Group. At the same time, Helen took pleasure in bullying her.
Lea glanced at the empty seat and began working on the test.
Her classmates couldn’t adjust to the change and kept glancing at her.
She was answering the questions diligently, writing quickly, the tip of her pen rustling against the paper, her expression calm and composed, as if the answers flowed effortlessly from her mind to the page, requiring no pause for thought.
Helen, in a panic, ran out of the teaching building. Fortunately, class had already started, and there was no one in the campus. She ran straight. toward the outside of the campas, calling her mother as she ran
“Mom, I’m done for! Lea sent the video to the class group. And yours, too. Everyone saw it, they laughed at me, accused me… Everyone’s laughing at us. Mom, I can’t take it. Please, save me!” As she spoke, she forwarded all the videos from to Matilda.
Matilda was in the Berry Group’s headquarters, handing over her duties.
She had been demoted and was trying to place her people in key positions to retain control. The moment she saw the video Helen sent, her body swayed and she fell heavily into the sofa
It’s over Matilda thoughts raced. ‘It’s all over now! Helen’s virginity is ruined! And her name, too!
Hearing Helen’s terrified sols, her heart broke. “Helen, don’t be afraid Mommy’s coming right now.”
“Mom, kill Lea. No, death is too easy.
- y. I want her to suffer, to be humiliated online. And those who laughed at me, I want them to beg for my forgiveness” Helen cursed in rage.
“Alright, alright. Mommy will do anything
ng for you in coming right now!” Matilda hung up and gripped her hair, suddenly screaming. “Where’s

Her secretary.
Max Fraley, a trusted confidante she had brought along when she married, now dared not approach her, replying with fear, “Mr. Berry… hasn’t been found yet
