The Return of the Young Master
Chapter 79: The last bell of the day echoed through the school halls, but the air outside was far from calm. The events of the past few days—the fight, the rumors, the gala scandal—still lingered over the students like heavy clouds refusing to move.Alexander stepped out of the classroom, his bag slung lazily over one shoulder. His face was calm, but anyone who looked closely could see the shadow behind his eyes—restraint barely holding back fire.“Alexander!”The familiar voice stopped him in his tracks. Selena was standing by her car, a sleek white convertible parked under the flowering trees. She waved at him, her hair glimmering in the afternoon sun, though her expression was troubled.He hesitated for a second before walking over.Selena opened the car door and leaned against it, her voice soft but rushed. “Can you drive home with me? There’s so much I need to talk about… especially what happened at the gala.”Aria, who had been walking just behind Alexander, let out a short, an

Chapter 47The drive home was thick with silence.Maria’s fury filled the car like smoke, choking out every trace of calm. Andrea sat beside her, staring out the window as the city lights streaked past — cold, distant, and merciless.The moment they arrived at the mansion, Maria didn’t wait for the driver to open the door. She stepped out sharply, her heels clicking against the stone like sparks of anger. Andrea followed behind her, his face pale, shoulders heavy with exhaustion.As soon as they entered the living room, Maria turned to him, her eyes burning.“Paying a fine? That’s it?” she demanded, her voice echoing through the marble hall. “Andrea, that woman humiliated you in front of your coworkers! She dragged your name through filth — and you just let her go with a fine?”Andrea exhaled slowly, loosening his tie. “Maria, it’s enough. The truth came out, didn’t it? Nikolai was the thief, not me. I don’t want to ruin Sofia’s life any further.”Maria’s laugh was sharp and bitter. “
Enough hiding
Chapter 77The night air outside the gala was cooler than the suffocating tension that had filled the hall, but Mrs. Morrelo didn’t feel it. Each step she took was deliberate, heels clicking softly against the marble floor as she exited with her chin raised. She would not give them the satisfaction of seeing her falter.Behind her, however, the mocking laughter followed like poison-tipped arrows.“She really thought she fooled us with that ring.”“Look at the way she walked out — as if she’s royalty. What a joke.”“Maybe she should audition for a drama; she plays the victim so well.”Mrs. Vega’s shrill voice rose above the others, mimicking Mrs. Morrelo’s quiet dignity. She threw her scarf dramatically over her shoulder and strutted in circles, sending the room into another wave of laughter.Mrs. Donatoes smirked, adding fuel to the cruelty. “Careful, Vega. Don’t make it too realistic — you might actually convince someone she’s worth something.”The women laughed louder, their painted
A fake witness
Chapter 76The air inside the hall had become heavy, almost suffocating. The ring gleamed on Mrs. Morrelo’s finger, but the crowd’s disbelief clung stubbornly to their faces. Whispers tangled in the room like a hive of angry bees.Mrs. Vega, sensing that the tide might still be turned, snapped her fingers. At her signal, the doors at the back of the hall creaked open. Everyone turned, startled, as a man in shabby clothes shuffled forward, his eyes darting nervously.“Who is that?” one parent muttered.“Looks like… a servant?” another whispered.Mrs. Donatoes’s lips curled into a triumphant smile as she stepped forward. “This is proof,” she announced dramatically, her voice echoing. “This man used to work at the Morrelo estate, years ago. And he will testify that this woman standing before us is nothing but a fraud who stole from the family she once served.”Gasps echoed across the room.Mrs. Vega smirked as she gestured toward the trembling man. “Go on. Tell them what you told us.”Th
Regret
Chapter 75The hall was trembling with voices, each parent whispering louder than the next, as if determined to outdo the others in cruelty. Their eyes were fixed on Mrs. Morrelo with suspicion, disdain, and even envy. Selena stood frozen, torn between her mother’s poison and Alexander’s desperate sincerity.Mr. Langston, who had been silently observing their stubbornness, finally sighed deeply, the weight of his authority pressing down on the room. His voice boomed across the gathering, cutting through the noise like a blade.“You doubt my word. You question her identity. Very well,” he said, reaching into his inner pocket with slow, deliberate movements. “Since my voice is not enough for you, let me show you something you cannot deny.”The parents leaned forward in unison, curiosity sparking in their eyes. Mrs. Vega folded her arms, her lips twitching in a mocking smile, while Mrs. Donatoes whispered something sharp in her ear, both of them laughing under their breaths.From his poc

Chapter 74The hall was buzzing with voices like a hive of angry bees. Whispers flew from one corner to another, each one sharper and nastier than the last. Mrs. Morrelo stood still, her eyes cold yet calm, while Alexander clenched his fists tightly, forcing himself not to lash out at the sea of sneering faces around them.Mr. Langston, who had been silently watching the charade unravel for too long, finally stepped forward. His presence alone commanded silence, though the muttering never completely ceased. His deep, firm voice rolled through the hall like thunder.“Do you truly believe I would stand here and lie to all of you? Do you think I, of all people, would risk my reputation for the sake of deceiving you?” He paused, scanning the room slowly, his sharp gaze landing on each parent one after another. “I am not in your caliber to lie. I have nothing to gain from such foolishness.”Gasps followed, but instead of silencing them, his words only stirred the crowd further.Mrs. Vega s
