All Her Schemes Bounce Back: The Cheating Scandal Reversal

On the day of the presentation, the hall was packed.

Apart from the department heads and school administrators, tons of students had come to watch the spectacle.

Everyone was eager to find out whether the so-called top student who knew witchcraft or the campus belle would come out on top. Sharon went before me.

Her presentation was flashy and over-the-top, and her speech was full of emotion. She talked about how much she loved volunteering and how she united her classmates, while her academic achievements barely got a mention.

Yet, when she finished, the applause she got from the audience was thunderous. Daniel was especially thrilled, grinning from ear to ear on the panel of judges.

As Sharon passed by me on her way off the stage, she leaned in close and whispered, "Cassandra, today, I will ruin your reputation so badly that you'll never be able to recover."

Without even glancing her way, I uttered, "Is that so? Then I guess we shall see."

"Next, please welcome Cassandra Giles."

After the announcement, I calmly walked onto the stage, my USB drive in hand. The whispers from the audience instantly grew louder.

"Is that her? The one who does witchcraft?"

"I heard Travis ended up in the hospital because of her. How creepy."

"Hush, stop talking. She might curse you."

Ignoring the voices, I walked over to the AV equipment. Sharon sat in the audience, her eyes gleaming with triumph.

Scott, over by the equipment, gave me a sly, sinister grin. I plugged in my USB drive.

"Good afternoon, teachers and fellow students. I'm Cassandra Giles."

I opened a folder and clicked on the file labeled "Academic Achievements Presentation".

The moment the screen lit up, the entire auditorium went silent.

Out of the corner of my eye, I saw Sharon covering her mouth, looking shocked at the screen, but beneath that shock was clearly wicked delight.

My heart skipped a beat. A wave of panic I had never felt before hit me. I whipped my head toward the big screen.

What appeared wasn't my academic achievements at all. It was a series of scandalous, indecent photos. And the person in those photos had the exact same face as me.
