Turning My Life Around 1
"Did you do it on purpose?" Laura Scott folded her arms and stared at me, her pretty, clean shoes kicking my stomach.Her friends joined in, saying, "Melanie Sheldon definitely did it on purpose, for sure. We warned her just before the test, but she intentionally snatched the first-place position. I'm telling you, she's only trying to take the top spot from Miss Scott."I brushed off their comments.They were abusing their authority and influence.Before the exams, they confronted me and gave me a serious talk.I didn't pay it much mind, and after the exams, I still held the first-place position.And that's how we ended up in this situation today.She ordered her friends to drag me into the restroom where they splashed dirty water on me and slapped my face. They tore my exam papers to bits and scattered them over my head."What's your problem? Unhappy about it, but do you dare to resist? Do you even have the means to defy us? Do you know where you are? It's the prestigious school in th

Laura's index finger was almost poking my nose when the class monitor finally spoke up, "Laura, just drop it!"That one sentence set off a chain reaction. Laura's insults got worse, and her friends knocked over my desk, causing the pendant inside to fall and shatter. It was an heirloom from my dad, and I couldn't take it anymore.I grabbed a chair and swung it at Laura's friends."Do you all think I'm a pushover or something?"With a loud "thud," one of them was hit on the head, and blood started to flow."Oh my gosh, there's so much blood! Someone call a teacher!"I picked up the broken pendant and stuffed it in my pocket.I punched a few of Laura's friends, one by one."Do you all get uncomfortable if I don't hit you? Speak up!"Laura hid behind the class monitor, trembling."And you, Laura? Do you think you can act recklessly just because you're wealthy?"My attempt at revenge didn't work, and I was taken to the principal's office. Several teachers and school leaders followed.Afte

She kept repeating two sentences, then, after scolding me, she left without paying any more attention to me. It was the police station intern who finally took pity on me, poured me some hot water, and gave me candies. She even brought a warm towel to soothe my swollen cheeks."Thank you, officer."I lay on the hard bed, feeling uneasy for the first time. Something was off about my mom's reaction to Laura. There had to be something fishy going on.But I didn't expect to be released the very next day. The person who helped me get out was the boy who sold breakfast.As it turns out, he wasn't a poor boy at all, he was William Blair, from the affluent and prominent Blair family in the capital.I went with him, and when I tried to leave, he grabbed my hand and led me to his luxurious car.It was my first time in such an extravagant car. I couldn't bring myself to enjoy the ride, and I still couldn't believe that he was from the Blair family."Is your cheek still in pain?"It was the fi

This morning, I saw William still selling breakfast when I arrived. I didn't understand why he hadn't moved away, but I had no intention of patronizing his business. I naturally noticed the moment of disappointment in his eyes, but I knew deep down that he and I were not in the same world anymore. Perhaps we were in the past, but not in the future. So, I thought it best to avoid any unnecessary entanglements.After leaving the hospital where I had handed over the hair samples for DNA testing, I caught a bus to a store that sells surveillance cameras. I made a quick purchase of what I needed. Between the DNA test and buying the camera, I had used up more than half of my pocket money. I had to save the rest. Otherwise, I might end up malnourished before the college entrance exams.On my way back home, I ran into William."Melanie, is it impossible for us to be friends? Like we used to be.""William Blair, we're not from the same world."He shook his head. "How do you know if you d

One statement caught everyone's attention.Laura couldn't hide her composure anymore."Melanie, why are you making up such nonsense? Just because you envy my status, you're spreading lies like this? Who in their right mind would believe you? I'm the Scott family heiress, and who are you? You must be joking! You're acting foolish. If you're going to lie, at least make it believable. If this were true, do you think my parents wouldn't have found out over the years? You're utterly wicked."This strange scene finally came to an end, with Laura giving me a death stare.I knew my opportunity had come.After school.Once again, Laura, accompanied by her loyal followers, called me into the restroom.The restroom was empty at that time."Melanie, you can eat recklessly, but you can't talk recklessly!"Laura kicked my cheek with her shoe. "Say something! Weren't you happy to sprout nonsense in class just now?"She casually kicked me while her friends attacked me fiercely."Last time, you were so
Turning My Life Around 6
I never quite understood why William was so kind to me. I couldn't recall anyone treating me this way before. Our interactions were limited to breakfast, and it seemed absurd that he could develop feelings for me just because of breakfast.One afternoon after school, I couldn't resist sharing my thoughts with him. His demeanor instantly changed to a somber one."Once, my grandmother lived here. I had been here a few times. The last time, I was playing by the street when a human trafficker tried to grab me. It was you who suddenly appeared, grabbed my hand, and took me back to the courtyard. Don't you remember?" he said.I scratched my head, realizing that I had little recollection of the incident. However, his words triggered a faint memory, as if there was indeed such an event. I couldn't recall the exact details, but I might have wanted to play with him back then just because he was good-looking."Well, that surprised me. I thought you liked me because I bought your breakfast," I
