The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan!-Chapter 468: Guilt

Mona Wright thought to herself, her smile growing even more triumphant, as if she could already see the day when Paige Sterling is abandoned and left in misery.

"Oh dear, I’m really not good at talking, I’ve touched on your sore spot, Miss Sterling. You mustn’t hold it against someone like me who lacks a way with words. Don’t get too upset and harm your health. You just had an abortion not long ago; you need to take good care of yourself. If you end up unable to have children in the future, won’t Mr. Hawthorne despise you even more?"

Wayne Wright’s gaze turned sharp, and just as he was about to move, Paige Sterling grabbed his hand.

Paige Sterling didn’t let him move.

There was no need to let him act on such a small-fry who only knew how to talk big. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎

And Mona Wright was getting more and more delighted as she spoke, "But does it make any difference whether you can have children or not? Having a child doesn’t mean Mr. Hawthorne will care for you. I’ve heard that Mr. Hawthorne has been busy building a relationship with Miss Alisa lately. Ah, he doesn’t even have time to go shopping with you. How will he have time to look at you and the child in the future? Miss Sterling, your life in the days to come – who knows how different it will be from being in the Cold Palace. If it were me, I’d have gone mad by now, unlike you, Miss Sterling. You’re so strong, still in the mood to go shopping..."

Paige Sterling, "..."

Mona Wright, "But Miss Sterling, you shouldn’t be too sad. After all, when you’re the third party, one day you’ll be the one who’s replaced. Because heaven has eyes, it won’t let those who’ve done all sorts of bad deeds go unpunished. When you did those things in the past, you should have expected this day to come, don’t you think, Miss Sterling?"

"Of course," Paige Sterling’s mouth twitched, and she laughed, "That’s why Skylar Hughes is in prison now. It’s karma."

Mona Wright’s smile instantly turned sour, "Miss Sterling, how dare you mention Skylar? Isn’t it all your scheming that has led to Skylar’s situation now? With such a venomous mind, you deserve the fate you’re in now."

Mona Wright made no effort to hide her disgust for Paige Sterling, "Do you still think you’re the treasure held in Julian Hawthorne’s palm? Face reality, Miss Sterling. Mr. Hawthorne has seen through your true colors and doesn’t want you anymore. You’re just a pitiful thing now, abandoned, with nothing but money left. What right do you have to be smug?"

Paige Sterling smirked, "At least I still have money. Do you have any? The Wright Family’s situation seems to be getting worse. Miss Wright, you’re so capable, why don’t I lend you a hand?"

Mona Wright’s face darkened even more, "What do you mean? Are you behind the Wright Family’s troubles as well?"

The Wright Family’s issues have nothing to do with Paige Sterling; she doesn’t have the time to keep an eye on the Wrights.

But if Mona Wright thinks it’s her, so be it.

Mona Wright was now convinced that Paige Sterling was the one targeting the Wright Family, and she angrily questioned, "Paige Sterling, why would you do this?"

Paige Sterling, "Because every time I manage to forget about you, you pop up again to remind me of your existence, making it hard for me not to do something about it."

Mona Wright choked on her words, glaring fiercely at Paige Sterling.

Paige Sterling walked over to her and laughed, "Miss Wright, you still haven’t learned your lesson. If you don’t have the strength, don’t provoke people you can’t handle. Your father worked hard to start his business, and it’s not nice of you to sabotage him like this."

Then Paige Sterling walked away, leaving Mona Wright fuming but helpless against her.

No matter how much she hated Paige Sterling, she could only get a few digs in verbally. She lacked the ability to take revenge on Paige Sterling, or else she wouldn’t have let her be so arrogant until now.

However, after being infuriated by Paige Sterling just now, looking at her arrogant back, she found unexpected courage to charge at Paige Sterling from behind just as she reached the elevator.

If she succeeded, Paige Sterling would definitely fall down the elevator.

Even if she didn’t injure Paige Sterling, she would still embarrass her.

And she could claim it wasn’t intentional. What could Paige Sterling do to her?

But unfortunately, Wayne Wright detected it and directly intercepted Mona Wright midway.

Wayne Wright’s gaze was icy as he looked at Mona Wright, who immediately shivered. Shortly after, two people appeared out of nowhere and restrained her.

Those people were strong, and Mona Wright couldn’t break free. She panicked, "What are you doing?"

The two people showed their credentials, "Attempted harm to Miss Sterling, taking you in for investigation."

That was... military officer credentials?

Mona Wright broke out in a cold sweat, screaming and shouting, but she was still taken away.

How could Paige Sterling have military personnel protecting her? How was she so formidable?

After Mona Wright was taken away, Wayne Wright went to see Paige Sterling but found her sitting on the ground.

He paused, then crouched down to ask Paige Sterling, "What’s wrong?"

Even in his stiff voice, a touch of gentleness could still be heard.

Paige Sterling frowned and said, "I fell over."

Wayne Wright remembered that Mona Wright hadn’t even touched Paige Sterling just now, so how did she fall?

Paige Sterling continued, "I got scared, twisted my ankle, it hurts a bit."

Wayne Wright felt her foot, and Paige Sterling immediately grabbed her left foot, looking pained, "Right here, right here, don’t touch, it hurts!"

Wayne Wright looked at her strangely, "I touched your right foot."

Paige Sterling instantly grabbed her right foot, "Ouch, ouch, ouch..."

Wayne Wright, "..."

He silently watched this drama queen for a while, then picked her up and took her to the hospital.

The doctor examined Paige Sterling, who was faking it, but didn’t expect that after the examination, Wayne Wright directly carried her to the ward.

Paige Sterling asked, "I’m not seriously hurt, I don’t need to be admitted, do I?"

Wayne Wright ignored her question and directly went to handle the paperwork, then called Jared Sullivan to inform him that Paige Sterling would need to be hospitalized for a while.

Paige Sterling, "..."

She also didn’t know what Wayne Wright intended to do.

But she didn’t stop Wayne Wright either.

If hospitalization was necessary, then hospitalization it would be. After all, she was now a poor woman deeply hurt by Julian Hawthorne. With her body weakened, staying in the hospital was quite normal.

This way, those people would also know she didn’t suspect Julian Hawthorne.

However, Paige Sterling looked at Wayne Wright, still puzzled about some things.

For example, since things weren’t over, why was Wayne Wright still by her side?

If things were over, why was Julian Hawthorne still causing trouble?

She knew Julian Hawthorne always thought she worried too much and didn’t want her to think about this matter, but she couldn’t help thinking about it.

Paige Sterlings in a daze, soon fell asleep.

Wayne Wright stayed by the bedside without leaving, daring only to gently place a kiss on her forehead after she fell asleep.

Nanny Sutton returned to the Sterling Family and quickly learned about her distant niece, Sarah Sutton’s actions. Ashamed and remorseful, she rushed to find Sarah.

Sarah Sutton was now arranged by Julian Hawthorne to live in a small apartment, officially becoming Julian’s mistress. Her daily life was filled with the best food and clothes, and she’d finally gotten her hands on the luxury items she’d always dreamed of.

She was caught by Nanny Sutton while shopping at the mall.

When Nanny Sutton saw her outfit, thought of her lavish spending, and heard her repeatedly claim she was with Julian Hawthorne, she was furious.
