Story

The story

Ten years after graduation, Avery Jones funds a scholarship at her alma mater. At the ceremony, recipient Sarah Lewis grabs the microphone and accuses Avery of assaulting her at a karaoke bar, branding her a rapist. The company's stock falls as reporters swarm and students demand legal action.

Avery knows the truth: she rescued Sarah from attackers that night and arranged charity support. Sarah produces lingerie and a payment as proof, but Avery reveals both came from the company's standard sponsorship program. When Avery calls for police, Sarah claims pregnancy and demands seventy-five thousand dollars. Wade Rogers, a longtime nemesis, urges a quiet settlement, while assistant Keith Newman reports the stock is tanking. With evidence, rumors, and corporate pressure mounting, Avery realizes the ambush was carefully orchestrated.

Opening excerpt

Ten years after graduation, I funded a scholarship for underprivileged students at my alma mater.

During the ceremony's interview segment, one of the scholarship recipients suddenly grabbed the microphone.

"That night at the karaoke bar, you forced yourself on me! Aren't you going to take responsibility?"

Her words cut through the room, and every student and faculty member turned to look at me.
