Ashcroft Academy isn’t just a school—it’s where the children of presidents, billionaires, celebrities, and professional athletes are molded into the next generation of the world’s elite. Behind its ivy-covered walls, reputation is everything, family names are worth fortunes, and every student knows one rule: protect the legacy at all costs.

Then The Velvet Ledger appears.

Every morning at exactly 7:00 a.m., the anonymous blog publishes another secret. Affairs. Betrayals. Hidden scandals. Forbidden relationships. The posts are ruthless, frighteningly accurate, and impossible to stop. No firewall can block it. No investigation can uncover its creator. With each new revelation, friendships shatter, romances implode, and lifelong reputations crumble.

When the first post targets Ashcroft’s golden quarterback, Quinn Sinclair, the entire academy is thrown into chaos. Soon, no one is safe—not the hockey captain with a carefully buried past, not the ambitious student council president desperate to maintain her perfect image, not the quiet billionaire heir who begins investigating the mysterious blogger, and not the relentless student journalist determined to expose the truth before another life is destroyed.

As suspicion spreads through the halls, every student becomes both a suspect and a potential victim. The closer they come to discovering who’s behind The Velvet Ledger, the more they realize the blog isn’t just exposing secrets—it seems to be leading them toward something far darker.

Because someone at Ashcroft Academy has been hiding the truth for years.

And the anonymous blogger isn’t finished.

In a place where legacy is everything, one secret has the power to destroy generations. The only question is who will survive when every lie is finally brought into the light.

Immerse yourself in the world of Athaerion.

To honor a vow to "protect her for a lifetime," I used my flesh and blood to shield her from a fatal impact in a deadly car crash. My heart was severely shattered, leaving me barely clinging to life with a pacemaker.

Concealing my identity for five years, I single-handedly dragged her from bankruptcy and crowned her the new royalty of Wall Street.

Yet, on the eve of her IPO, just to curry favor with a powerful tycoon, she knocked away my life-saving medicine, forced me to kneel and shine shoes in public, and finally kicked my gravely ill body out into a sub-zero Brooklyn blizzard.

My dying pleas for help only earned her impatient mockery: "Save your playing dead tricks for the ghosts."

When my pacemaker completely shattered in the howling snow, that submissive Arthur died.

Armed gunships descended, and a military-grade tactical heart violently rebooted my pulse! When I opened my eyes again, I was the Supreme Commander who cast terror over the global underground.

When I crushed her capital empire with a single hand and the truth was finally revealed, she knelt in the muddy rain, frantically slapping her own face, sobbing and screaming to give her life back to me.

I flicked the ash from my cigar, my gaze as cold as looking at trash: "My wife died in the blizzard. You are just a stranger who crawled up by stepping on half my life."

Eighteen years ago, my mother traded her newborn for a gold-plated life, leaving me in a rust-stained trash can like a piece of discarded waste just to marry her rich boyfriend.

Now, she was back, weeping about "maternal regret" and "postpartum shadows”, saying she had regretted her decision every second of her life.

Overjoyed that my mother wanted me back, I packed my belongings and rushed to meet her.

However, the moment I stepped foot at her doorstep, I overheard her conversation with her darling daughter with her new husband.

“Of course, sweetheart! You will always be my one and only darling. I’m only adopting Vanessa back to wed her to Mr. Blackwood to save your Dad's bankrupt company.”

“You are not lying to me, Mom, are you?” Ramona, my step sister, tugged to my mother’s arms. “You won't share my love with sister Vanessa, will you?”

“Never.” My mother replied, her voice contained no warmth when mentioning me. “How can a village’s trash can compare to our princess?”

“If we wouldn't have to please that old hag of Blackwood company, we would never have brought your sister back.”

“An old master of Blackwood company and a village girl with no literacy, I think that's a match made in heaven.” Ramona smirked, followed by the sound of their laughter.

My legs at the doorstep froze, the momentary joy I felt shattered. The cold heart that had melted seeing my mother shed tears, became ice.

I watched the duo of mother and daughter, laughing and making fun of me, completely unaware that the company they were trying to please by offering me, was actually owned by me.

I was the CEO of Blackwood Groups.
