THE HEIRESS'S REVENGE: ABANDONED BY THE BILLIONAIRE Chapter 1 The Day I Died

Jasmine's POV

"Did you see it? Jasmine's a total fraud!"

The laughter cut through the corridor like knives. Sharp. Cruel. Unrelenting.

The moment the video leaked, my world fractured.

Shattering like glass beneath a heavy boot.

It was supposed to be just another day at Crestfall Academy... a place where I had bled, clawed, and fought for every inch of ground. A place where I had forced myself to fit in, even when every whisper and sideways glance reminded me that I didn't belong.

But that morning... everything changed.

I turned my head. A group of girls clustered near the lockers, their phones glowing like torches in the dark. The light flickered across their faces, hungry with gossip. My stomach sank. I didn't even need to ask. I already knew.

The video.

My hands trembled as I tightened my grip on my backpack strap.

"Shut up, Mia." I hissed, trying to sound strong, trying to keep my spine straight. But my voice cracked, and their laughter only grew louder.

Each word sliced into me. Each giggle burned.

I pushed forward, fast, desperate to outrun their voices, their eyes, their judgment. The backpack weighed heavier than ever, pressing me into the earth.

The main hall opened ahead, wide and shining with sunlight streaming through stained glass windows. And there...like always... stood Ares.

Tall. Effortlessly confident. The boy who had once held my heart in his hands.

His head tilted back slightly, laughter spilling from his lips as he talked with a group of guys. His presence filled the room, and for a single, fleeting second, I let myself believe I could still lean on him. That he would look up, see me, and shield me.

But the world tilted instead.

"Look!" someone shouted. "It's going viral!"

I froze. My throat went dry. My pulse roared in my ears.

On the glowing phone screen was me.

Not just me.

Me in a hotel room.

Me sitting on a bed in a silky dress far too revealing for Crestfall's polished halls.

Me with a senior executive - Mr. Langford, the academy's biggest donor... his figure half-blurred, his hand brushing my arm.

The camera caught my face in cruel detail: lips parted, eyes wide, dress strap sliding down.

The crowd gasped, then erupted into vicious laughter.

"Wow, so that's how she got her scholarship."

"Scholarship girl? More like a sugar baby girl."

"Guess money isn't the only thing she's good at."

I staggered back a step, air punching out of my lungs.

"That's not..." My voice was too faint. Drowned by the chaos.

The angle. The way it was edited. It looked like I had sold myself to get into Crestfall. The truth didn't matter. Perception was poison, and it was spreading faster than fire.

Ares's voice cut through.

"Jasmine."

I spun. The tone so unfamiliar from the person who calls me "minmin".

He was closer now, his jaw tight, his eyes burning into me. The warmth I used to drown in... gone. Replaced by something sharp. Something accusing.

"It's not what you think," I whispered. My chest rose and fell in panic. "It's not real. Someone set me up."

But his gaze... it pinned me in place. Held me captive. His lips parted like he wanted to believe, but then a shadow of doubt flickered across his face. A flicker I couldn't unsee.

"Ares, please," I begged. My voice cracked in front of everyone. "You know me. You know I wouldn't..."

"Look at her!" Mia's voice rang from the back. "The scholarship girl thinks she can act like one of us? No wonder she dresses like that. Always pretending."

Someone shoved me hard as they passed. My shoulder slammed against a locker. Pain shot through my arm, but the laughter was louder.

And then, a teacher appeared. Mr. Rowen. My chest filled with fragile hope. Surely he'd stop this. Surely he'd defend me.

But his eyes flickered to the screen, to me, to the crowd all in disappointment. His lips pressed thin. And then he turned, walked away.

Like I wasn't worth defending.

Humiliation burned hotter than fire.

I forced myself to look back at Ares. My last anchor. My last chance.

He stepped closer. His voice, low but cutting.

"You're in over your head, Jasmine. This isn't some game anymore."

Game? My throat ached. "Ares, I swear..."

And then desperation ripped through me. Words tumbled out before I could stop them.

"I'm pregnant."

The hallway froze. My chest heaved. My vision blurred. "A month plus. It's yours."

Gasps rippled through the crowd like shockwaves.

Ares's face drained of color, then hardened into steel.

"No," he snapped. His voice was final. "Don't put this on me."

"Ares, I..."

He cut me off, louder now, so everyone could hear.

"That video says it all. Who knows how many men you've been with? You expect me to believe this child is mine?"

The air left my lungs. My heart cracked wide open.

"No..." I shook my head violently. "No, I love you. I've only ever..."

His hand lifted in warning, his eyes full of betrayal that wasn't mine to carry.

"We're done, Jasmine. Stay away from me."

The words echoed in my skull.

"Stay away."

"Stay away."

The floor tilted beneath me. My knees weakened. The faces around me blurred into cruel masks. Phones still recording. Laughter still echoing.

I stumbled backward, back hitting the cold wall, my breath ragged. My heart thundered so loud it drowned out everything else.

This was the boy I gave everything to. The boy I trusted. The boy I carried life for.

And he tossed me away.

The whispers closed in.

"She's disgusting."

"Pregnant? With who?"

"Fake. Trash. She'll never belong here."

I shut my eyes. Every word pierced deeper.

Crestfall was supposed to be my future. My chance to rise.

Now it was a cage of humiliation, closing in, crushing me alive.

A thought hit me like lightning.

I couldn't stay here.

Not like this.

Not broken. Not branded.

I had to disappear. To bury this version of me.

To rise again, stronger. Sharper. Untouchable.

But first, I had to survive this day.

I pushed off the wall, forcing my trembling legs and aching stomach to move. Through the crowd. Through the cruel stares.

I reached the doors. Shoved them open. Cold air slapped my face.

Outside, the world stretched wide and indifferent, but I felt the weight of every stare lingering behind me.

This was the day I died.

The day Jasmine Duvall, the desperate scholarship girl, was buried under lies.

But it was also the day I would be reborn.

My chest heaved. My fists clenched.

"I will make them pay," I whispered into the wind.

And then...

I froze.

The courtyard was empty. Yet my skin prickled, like a thousand invisible needles.

Someone was watching me.

I turned sharply. A shadow flickered near the far gate. A figure I couldn't make out.

My blood ran cold.

This wasn't over.

Not even close.

This was the day I died...

And the day my war began.

The Billionaire's Cold And Bitter Betrayal

I had just survived a private jet crash, my body a map of violet bruises and my lungs still burning from the smoke. I woke up in a sterile hospital room, gasping for my husband's name, only to realize I was completely alone. While I was bleeding in a ditch, my husband, Adam, was on the news smiling at a ribbon-cutting ceremony. When I tracked him down at the hospital's VIP wing, I didn't find a grieving husband. I found him tenderly cradling his ex-girlfriend, Casie, in his arms, his face lit with a protective warmth he had never shown me as he carried her into the maternity ward. The betrayal went deeper than I could have imagined. Adam admitted the affair started on our third anniversary-the night he claimed he was stuck in London for a merger. Back at the manor, his mother had already filled our planned nursery with pink boutique bags for Casie's "little princess." When I demanded a divorce, Adam didn't flinch. He sneered that I was "gutter trash" from a foster home and that I'd be begging on the streets within a week. To trap me, he froze my bank accounts, cancelled my flight, and even called the police to report me for "theft" of company property. I realized then that I wasn't his partner; I was a charity case he had plucked from obscurity to manage his life. To the Hortons, I was just a servant who happened to sleep in the master bedroom, a "resilient" woman meant to endure his abuse in silence while the whole world laughed at the joke that was my marriage. Adam thought stripping me of his money would make me crawl back to him. He was wrong. I walked into his executive suite during his biggest deal of the year and poured a mug of sludge over his original ten-million-dollar contracts. Then, right in front of his board and his mistress, I stripped off every designer thread he had ever paid for until I was standing in nothing but my own silk camisole. "You can keep the clothes, Adam. They're as hollow as you are." I grabbed my passport, turned my back on his billions, and walked out of that glass tower barefoot, bleeding, and finally free.

Flash Marriage To My Best Friend's Father

I was once the heiress to the Solomon empire, but after it crumbled, I became the "charity case" ward of the wealthy Hyde family. For years, I lived in their shadows, clinging to the promise that Anson Hyde would always be my protector. That promise shattered when Anson walked into the ballroom with Claudine Chapman on his arm. Claudine was the girl who had spent years making my life a living hell, and now Anson was announcing their engagement to the world. The humiliation was instant. Guests sneered at my cheap dress, and a waiter intentionally sloshed champagne over me, knowing I was a nobody. Anson didn't even look my way; he was too busy whispering possessively to his new fiancée. I was a ghost in my own home, watching my protector celebrate with my tormentor. The betrayal burned. I realized I wasn't a ward; I was a pawn Anson had kept on a shelf until he found a better trade. I had no money, no allies, and a legal trust fund that Anson controlled with a flick of his wrist. Fleeing to the library, I stumbled into Dallas Koch—a titan of industry and my best friend’s father. He was a wall of cold, absolute power that even the Hydes feared. "Marry me," I blurted out, desperate to find a shield Anson couldn't climb. Dallas didn't laugh. He pulled out a marriage agreement and a heavy fountain pen. "Sign," he commanded, his voice a low rumble. "But if you walk out that door with me, you never go back." I signed my name, trading my life for the only man dangerous enough to keep me safe.

I Slapped My Fiancé-Then Married His Billionaire Nemesis

Jessica C. Dolan

Being second best is practically in my DNA. My sister got the love, the attention, the spotlight. And now, even her damn fiancé. Technically, Rhys Granger was my fiancé now-billionaire, devastatingly hot, and a walking Wall Street wet dream. My parents shoved me into the engagement after Catherine disappeared, and honestly? I didn't mind. I'd crushed on Rhys for years. This was my chance, right? My turn to be the chosen one? Wrong. One night, he slapped me. Over a mug. A stupid, chipped, ugly mug my sister gave him years ago. That's when it hit me-he didn't love me. He didn't even see me. I was just a warm-bodied placeholder for the woman he actually wanted. And apparently, I wasn't even worth as much as a glorified coffee cup. So I slapped him right back, dumped his ass, and prepared for disaster-my parents losing their minds, Rhys throwing a billionaire tantrum, his terrifying family plotting my untimely demise. Obviously, I needed alcohol. A lot of alcohol. Enter him. Tall, dangerous, unfairly hot. The kind of man who makes you want to sin just by existing. I'd met him only once before, and that night, he just happened to be at the same bar as my drunk, self-pitying self. So I did the only logical thing: I dragged him into a hotel room and ripped off his clothes. It was reckless. It was stupid. It was completely ill-advised. But it was also: Best. Sex. Of. My. Life. And, as it turned out, the best decision I'd ever made. Because my one-night stand isn't just some random guy. He's richer than Rhys, more powerful than my entire family, and definitely more dangerous than I should be playing with. And now, he's not letting me go.
