The Heiress Reborn with A Mystic Space
Chapter 155 The Forum

Under the spring sunlight, a boy and a girl sat side by side. One spoke, the other listened, both smiling easily as if the world around them had disappeared. Years later when Lillian stood at the very top, Jeremy would think back to that moment again and again, losing himself in the memory.
That afternoon, the school forum exploded with a post titled: “Lillian and Jeremy, the Campus Prince – Romance Exposed.” Several photos were attached, snapped on the bleachers.
In every shot, Jeremy’s gaze lingered on Lillian’s face, warm and indulgent. With eyes like that, no one was going to believe nothing was going on.
The comments came flooding in.
“What’s happening? Somebody tell me if Jeremy and Lillian are actually together p>
“A perfect match – handsome guy, gorgeous girl. They look incredible together p>
“Please. Do you even know who Jeremy is? Some people trying to climb the social ladder should look in a mirror first. Pathetic p>
“Can people stop being dramatic? They’re obviously just talking. How does that equal a confession of love p>
“Lillian doesn’t need to ‘marry up.’ With her grades and her skills, she’s already a phoenix on her own p>
“I still think Jeremy and Eda would make a better couple”
The argument only grew louder and messier.
After school, Jill cornered Lillian with a teasing grin. “Alright, tell me the truth – what’s going on between you and Jeremy p>
Lillian frowned in confusion. “What are you even talking about? Jeremy and I are just classmates. What else could we be p>
Jill could only sigh. Clearly, Lillian hadn’t seen the forum. She handed her phone over. “Look for yourself. You and Jeremy are the hot topic now p>
Lillian glanced at the photos, and Jill smirked. “Look at his eyes in these. He’s practically worshipping you. Who’s going to believe there’s nothing between you two p>
Lillian gave a helpless laugh. “That’s just the angle. We were sitting and talking. Nothing more. How does that become a romance p>
Jill shook her head knowingly. “Sure, maybe you don’t like him that way. But Jeremy? His eyes say everything. Honestly, this feels like one of those stories where the boy falls hard and the girl doesn’t notice at all p>
Lillian burst out laughing. “Jill, with that kind of imagination, you should be writing soap operas p>
Jill rolled her eyes, though her smile lingered. “Fine, find Jokes aside, you’d better do something about that forum post p>
“There’s no need,” Lillian said calmly. “Rumors die when people get bored of them. Explaining only makes it worse. Give it time, and the truth speaks for itself p>

Jill mulled it over, then nodded.

By nightfall, the post had disappeared from the forum. Lillian didn’t give it another thought.
Soon after, the much-anticipated anniversary celebration arrived, filling the campus with energy and excitement.
At lunch, Natalie was practically bouncing in her seat as she rattled off gossip. “Lillian, you have to hear this – there’s a foreign delegation coming this year. Actual uropean nobility! Even Solara’s top leaders are showing up p>
She spoke as though it were the biggest news in the world.
Lillian kept eating, unbothered.
Natalie frowned. “Seriously? Don’t you even care p>
“What’s there to care about? They’re just guests. And I’m not performing anyway,” Lillian replied evenly. “If anyone should care, it’s you p>
Natalie thought about it and realized she was right. Lillian wasn’t performing.
Then a sharp voice cut through. “Lillian, the reason you’re not joining the celebration isn’t because you’re afraid to lose, is it p>
Lillian lifted her head coolly. Nora stood there with Eda at her side, flanked by two other girls, Wendy and Jesslyn.
Natalie bristled instantly. “What is wrong with you? Whether Lillian participates or not has nothing to do with you. You sound like a desperate lackey fussing over nothing p>
Nora smirked. “What’s the point of good grades if you can’t prove yourself here? This is when everyone sees who truly deserves to be Riverdale High’s belle. Isn’t that right, Lillian p>
Lillian set down her fork, her voice cold. “No matter how you try, Nora, you’ll never be the belle. At best, you’ll be the joke p>
Nora’s face darkened, hatred flashing in her eyes. Back in her old school, she had been popular – good looks, a decent family, and always a circle of admirers. But Riverdale High was different. Here, she was painfully average, her charm and background meaningless. No one praised her anymore.
But Lillian – who had nothing but her looks and a provincial background Even Jeremy gave her attention. It was unbearable.
A crowd began to gather, eager to watch the drama unfold.
was admired by everyone.
One of the girls at Nora’s side pointed accusingly. “Lillian, was that really necessary? Nora didn’t say anything that bad. Do you have to be so cruel p>
Tears welled in Nora’s eyes. She choked out, “I only asked why you wouldn’t perform. Did you really have to humiliate me?
I admit I’m not as pretty as you, and my grades aren’t as good. But someone as talented as you — shouldn’t you represent our school with pride p>
Eda’s eyes flickered before she stepped forward, voice full of righteous conviction. “Lillian, if Nora said
