The school transfer was finalized quickly.”
After a weekend, Fiorella was officially transferred into the elite academy.
She stood motionless in front of the grand school gates. In truth, she hadn’t wanted to come here. In her previous life, she had also entered this very same elite school and been placed in the same class as Jamila.
On the surface, Jamila had claimed it was to better take care of her, but it was precisely because of her that Fiorella had suffered immensely…
She claimed that Fiorella was her long–lost sister and urged others to look after her. But behind Fiorella’s back, Jamila spread rumors and incited others to bully her…
Her assignments mysteriously went missing. Trash was stuffed into her desk drawers. People shoved her wherever she went. Someone even pushed her down the stairs. And there were even more horrifying things…
With mixed emotions, Fiorella followed the teacher into the classroom.
“This is our new transfer student, Fiorella Huerta. I hope you all get along well with her.”
The teacher introduced her from the front of the class.
Voices of discussion quickly followed.
“Fiorella? She’s a Huerta?”

“What’s her relationship with Jamila?”
“Same last name by coincidence?”
“Are there any other wealthy Huerta families in our city? Why haven’t I heard of them?”
“Maybe she’s a special transfer student from another city.”
Hearing the murmurs below, Fiorella was a little surprised.
She had assumed she’d be introduced as Jamila’s sister, but the teacher barely said anything beyond her name.
Looking more closely, she noticed she hadn’t even been placed in the same class as Jamila.
Had the future… changed?
That thought brought a small sense of relief. Being in separate classes was a good thing.
It meant she could build her own circle of friends.
Scanning the classroom, she recognized quite a few familiar faces…
Not just her future roommates, but also…
“You can take the seat by the window.”
The teacher pointed to the seat next to the window.
Fiorella’s gaze landed on the boy sitting there.
He wore the school uniform, looking refined and scholarly. As everyone else turned to look at her, he casually flipped through his textbook as if nothing could be more important than reading.

But Fiorella knew better than anyone what he was really like.
He wasn’t ignoring her out of indifference. He did that simply because, at the moment, she held no value to him. Once he discovered who she truly was, he’d cling to her more than tightly.
Damien Calderon. She never expected to see him again.
She held her smirk and tried to keep composed…
Fiorella would never forget how her dear fiancé had betrayed her. He conspired with Jamila, manipulated her into losing her innocence, secretly took nude photos of her, and spread them around…
But for now, she had more important matters to deal with. She had no time for him. Still… her eyes darkened. She would collect every debt from her past life.
Meanwhile…
“…Jamila…”
“Jamila…”
“Jamila!”
“Ah! Juliette!”
She snapped out of her daze and looked at the girl named Juliette Sampson with a shy smile.
“I’ve been calling you forever. You didn’t hear me. Are you feeling okay?”
Juliette asked anxiously, full of concern.

Jamila forced a wry smile and tried to sound cheerful. “Ah… I’m fine. Just tired. There were some things going on at home these past few days…”
She didn’t make it clear.
“Oh, I heard from my dad. Wasn’t there a welcome party at your place?”
Jamila’s heart skipped a beat, but she kept up the smile, not wanting anyone to notice her unease.
“Yeah…”
“Who was the party for?”
Juliette kept pressing.
Jamila’s face had already gone pale, and the curve of her smile flattened significantly.
“Just… a relative.”
“Who? I didn’t know you had such an important relative.”
