Unveiling the True Heiress Chapter 24
Chapter 24 The Cheating Student and The Top Student
The following day. Meredith donned Quantum’s school uniform. Her tall figure made the plain, gray uniform seem more fashionable, especially with her long, slender, fair legs beneath the pleated skirt. She completely outshone Myra standing nearby.
The two of them traveled to school by car. Upon arrival, Myra subtly distanced herself from Meredith, not wanting to be associated with her.
But they had just taken a few steps when they noticed a large banner hanging at the school gate.
Warmest congratulations to Ms. Reign, the Kane family’s second daughter, for achieving full marks in four papers.
Several women in uniforms stood at the school gate, smiling and giving small gifts to every y student who
entered.
“Everything in the school cafeteria today is free of charge to celebrate Ms. Meredith’s perfect scores in four papers. This is a treat from the Kane family.” Leading the group was Courtney, the Kane family’s servant.
Meredith was dumbstruck.
Such extravagant and vulgar behavior was typical of nouveau riche families.
Surprisingly, Myra didn’t feel jealous upon witnessing Tom flaunting Meredith’s achievements so conspicuously. Instead, she felt somewhat pleased,
She walked back to Meredith’s side and seemed very seasoned as she said, “It must be your first time witnessing such a scene, right? Dad will ask you to make a statement for the reporters later. You should think about what to say beforehand so you won’t get nervous and stammer.”
The Kane family would hold a banquet for Myra annually on her birthday, so she was already accustomed to such situations. Meredith grew up in the countryside, and Myra assumed that Meredith hadn’t met many people in real life. Myra also thought Meredith would feel nervous and embarrassed in such a situation.
“If you don’t know what to say, you can say something like this… Hey, where are you going? The lounge is this way. While speaking. Myra noticed that Meredith wasn’t even listening to her and was heading toward
the teachers‘ office.
Myra caught up to Meredith and pulled her back. “Don’t wander around. We’re in school, and the teachers‘ office is on that side. We’re no longer in the countryside. You can’t just go anywhere you like.” Myra spoke loudly, and several passing students laughed upon hearing it.
“Haha. It’s probably her first time on such a huge campus.”
“You can take a country bumpkin out of the sticks, but you can’t make her less ignorant. She’s still a hillbilly at the end of the day. You can’t change her true nature. Haha!”
Myra felt secretly pleased. This was precisely what she wanted.
“Don’t touch me. It’s none of your business where I want to go. Meredith slapped Myra’s hand away.

“Oh my, you have quite the temper. You really think of yourself as the Kane family’s daughter.”
“Even if you’re pretty and achieve perfect scores, your unruly personality makes you unlikeable.”
“After all, you’re just a hillbilly from the countryside. Even if you were adopted by the Kane family, you’re just a country bumpkin at the end of the day. You’ll never be acknowledged as the Kane family’s daughter.”
Meredith looked coldly at the gossiping students and said, “You’re right. A country bumpkin will never be acknowledged as the Kane family’s daughter. A commoner will always be a commoner, even if they dress
and are admitted into Quantum. It won’t change their true nature.”

When Myra heard it, her face paled briefly. Meredith was taunting her for being a commoner.
The gossiping students in
thought that Meredith was admitting to being a commoner. However,
what Meredith said was insulting them instead! They suddenly felt like they had shot themselves in the foot.
Meredith couldn’t be bothered to pay them any more attention and went straight to the student affairs director’s office.
“What? You’re saying you want to go to Class Eleven? Isn’t Class One good enough?” Mr. Langley was shocked upon hearing Meredith’s request.
Who would choose to go to a lower–ranked class when they can be in the first class? She can’t be so reckless even if she has good grades!
Moreover, Tom had invited reporters today to report on the genius student entering Class One.
“I have no particular reason. Just arrange it for me. Also, get me a dorm room. I want to live on campus,” Meredith said expressionlessly before turning and leaving. She had a cold gaze and appeared very aloof.
Tom and the school’s publicity department entertained the reporters in the lounge while waiting for Meredith to arrive for the interview.
However, only Myra showed up. Tom pulled her aside and asked, “Where’s Meredith? Why didn’t you bring her along?”
“She must be having stage fright. She refused to come no matter what I said on the way here. I don’t know where she went, Myra replied innocently.
Meredith had gone missing at this critical moment, and Tom’s anger instantly surged. “I should have known that a hillbilly like her is unreliable! Forget it. I’ll cancel her interview with the reporters. She might not know how to answer the questions and end up embarrassing the Kane family,” he said in a low voice.
Myra’s lips curled into a subtle smile when she saw how furious Tom was. “Don’t cancel the interview, Dad. The news about her can’t be proven if she doesn’t show up. If she doesn’t want to come here, we can lead the reporters to the classroom to look for her. She must have returned to her classroom.”
Tom pondered and thought it made sense, so he invited the reporters to follow him to the junior Class One.
Myra led the way in front and deliberately took a detour. On the way, the reporters noticed a crowd gathered before the school’s bulletin board, just as she had hoped. The students were talking about particular dromeless

The reporters felt they had stumbled upon juicy gossip when they heard it. As they approached, they discovered they had indeed uncovered a revelation.
“You must be Meredith’s family, right? How dare you flaunt her results when she cheated?! Get out of Quantum!” Some students saw Tom leading the group of reporters and began to criticize him. “An academic prodigy? She cheated!”
“I really thought she was a genius student. As it turns out, she cheated. She’s just an attention–seeking Student!
“This is truly outrageous behavior. It’s one thing to copy Seth’s problem–solving approaches, but she even
copied his essay.”
“Sir, such cheating behavior tarnishes the school’s reputation. Expel Meredith from Quantum!”
The surrounding students spoke simultaneously, leaving Tom feeling bewildered. The teacher from the publicity department with them was also perplexed.
Upon reaching the bulletin board and observing the papers affixed to it, it was as though Tom was suddenly struck by lightning. He froze on the spot, and his face darkened. His stormy expression starkly contrasted the enthusiastic expressions of the reporters beside him who were busy taking photos.
Two exam papers with similar problem–solving approaches were mounted on the bulletin board. They were almost identical!
Two names were written on the papers. Meredith Reign and Seth Creed. Seth Creed was Quantum Academy’s top student and the principal’s son!
Not only did Meredith cheat, but she also copied the principal’s son’s paper!
“Stop taking pictures! Stop it!” Tom instinctively tried to block the papers, but the exam papers were affixed all over the bulletin board, making it impossible for Tom to block them from view.
