The Supreme Heiress Chapter 173
In front of Jade, however, Neve still had to pretend to be at the end of her rope, determined to kill herself. "Don't come any closer, or I'll jump."Jade slowly approached Neve with a smile. Her eyes were cold, like a monster ready to strike at any moment. "You want to jump, huh? Alright, I'll accompany you."When Jade strode closer, Neve began to panic. She wanted to step back, but there was no place behind her to retreat to.The lackeys holding on to Neve also turned pale, staring blankly as they stood there frozen, watching as Jade approached step by step. They probably hadn't expected Jade to be bold enough to come forward regardless of the threat to Neve's life.As Neve watched Jade approach, her eyes flashed with a hint of viciousness. She pretended to lose control of her emotions and screamed, "Don't come any closer! Don't come any closer, or I'll jump!"She began to wave her arms wildly, teetering on the edge of the rooftop.The students below gasped, watching the scene

Melanie had seen it all clearly from below just now. It was Neve who had secretly pushed Jade and almost caused her to fall off the building. It was truly frightening how a cunning person like Neve could still pretend to be innocent."I didn't mean to, I really didn't mean to." Noticing how aggressive Melanie was, Neve kept backing away, frantically waving her hands to deny this."Enough with your act. We don't need you to act innocent here." Melanie grew angrier as she spoke. Seeing Neve's hypocrisy made her see red, and she reached out to push Neve.Unexpectedly, Neve fell to the floor like a leaf as soon as Melanie's hand touched her shoulder. Melanie stared dumbfounded at her, her anger boiling over as she stuttered, "Hey, you—you—I didn't even push you yet!"Neve's lackeys rushed forward, helping Neve up while accusing Melanie. "Melanie, you went too far. Neve is so frail, yet you still pushed her."Neve shook her head tearfully. "No, don't blame Melanie. I just lost my balan

Among these people, the one who reacted the most was Laura. When she saw Cooper step forward, her expression changed instantly—she wasn't afraid, she rather looked like she was hurt."Cooper, are you sure you want to speak up for Jade?" She spoke in a completely different tone from her earlier tough demeanor. Her demeanor had softened a lot, and even her gaze on Cooper became gentle.Jade wasn't the only one who noticed. Even Melanie caught on. "What's going on? Why do I feel like Laura is interested in Cooper?"Jade shrugged, making a gesture to imply that she was just as clueless."What, do you have a problem with this?" Cooper said gruffly, looking at Laura with a cold gaze. "If you dare to touch Jade, I won't let you off the hook."Laura had never been embarrassed like this before, so she immediately burst into tears. "Cooper, don't take this too far. What am I to you if you protect her like this?"There were gasps all around them.The information contained in Laura's words

The bet was set."Jade, I'll surely defeat you," Tiffany whispered as she passed by Jade. "I will make everyone know that I am the true number one at Clotheap University."She then walked away with an air of arrogance.Watching her leave, Melanie looked worriedly at Jade. "You've gotten yourself into trouble this time, Jade.""Why do you say that?" Jade asked, puzzled.Melanie looked surprised. "Don't you know? The McAuley Group is quite significant in Centus. Tiffany has been groomed as the heiress since childhood, is fluent in several languages, and excels in various fields like music, chess, academics, and painting. She's the limelight growing up.""So what?" Jade was still confused."Because your existence threatens her position. There's no room for two at the top. How could she allow you to steal her spotlight?" Melanie analyzed.Jade shook her head but appeared to agree with Melanie. "You're right."Actually, the reason Tiffany came to pick on her was not as Melanie had

Neve was anxious. These days, she had noticed that Lloyd was no longer paying attention to her. If she couldn't marry into the Zeals, she wouldn't be able to establish herself in the entertainment industry.A bold idea suddenly flashed in Neve's mind: What if she aced this exam? Wouldn't that secure her the title of Miss Clotheap? If so, both Jade and Tiffany would be left in the dust. Neve would ascend to legendary status at Clotheap University.The more Neve thought about it, the more excited she became. She composed herself and called Jacob. "Jacob, can you help me with something?""What's up? Tell me," Jacob replied.Glancing around to make sure nobody was listening, Neve said, "I need the test papers for this coming exam.""No problem." Although Jacob didn't ask Neve what she needed them for, he had already guessed that it had something to do with the competition for Miss Clotheap. He was fully supportive of Neve in order to secure that title.…In a blink of an eye, the da

No one would have imagined that the person who had stolen the test papers was actually in their own class. Everyone was discussing who it could be.The lecturer asked everyone to quiet down and looked at Laura. "Laura, come up to the front."Laura felt utterly confused, unsure of what was happening, yet she obediently went up to the front. "What's the meaning of this?""What's the meaning of this? Are you still pretending to be clueless? You've disappointed me too much," the lecturer said angrily with a raised voice. "The papers were found under your bed. How much longer are you going to hide it?""What?!" Laura exclaimed. "I didn't steal the papers. Are you sure you've got the right person?""You didn't steal the papers? Then explain why the papers were found under your bed.""I-I don't know," Laura said, feeling wronged. "But I didn't do it! Why are you trying to make me admit to something I didn't do?""No need to say anymore. Have your parents come here. The university takes

As expected, Laura's face contorted with anger. "I'm going to confront her."Ignoring Neve's protests, she ran toward the classroom.Neve watched her go with a sinister smile.'Fight!' she thought.The harder they fought, the less attention there'd be on the test paper issue. That was the only way for Neve to come out of this unscathed.As for Laura, Neve thought she shouldn't have stayed at a prestigious school like Clotheap University in the first place. Consider it bad luck that Laura ended up taking the blame for her.…Laura stormed into Jade's dormitory, shoving the door open and shouting, "Jade, come out!"Jade was already aware of the leaked test papers, but she hadn't expected Laura to come looking for her. She walked to the door and saw Laura, furious, with a crowd of onlookers behind her. "You're looking for me?" Jade asked."Jade, in front of all these classmates, did you steal the papers to frame me?" Laura's emotions boiled as she glared at Jade, ready to tear

Jade flashed a helpless smile at Melanie. "Guess it's just the classic case of jealousy, huh?""Jealousy?" Melanie paused for a moment, then suddenly understood. "You mean Cooper?""Who else could it be? Even a fool can see that Laura has a crush on him," Jade replied with exasperation.Melanie nodded, then furrowed her brows. "But that still shouldn't be a reason for her to come after you."Jade smiled wryly. Jealousy could really drive people insane.…Later that afternoon, Jade spotted Laura on her way to class.Laura was accompanied by her parents, who wore troubled expressions, barely able to lift their heads. As Jade and Laura's eyes met, a flicker of anger flashed in Laura's eyes."I won't let you off the hook," Jade murmured, reading Laura's lips.Laura left the school—expelled.The incident gradually faded from everyone's memory after it circulated for a while. Jade busied herself with her laboratory work and studies, eventually forgetting about it as well.…Dur
