The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan! Chapter 157: Confidence

That look puzzled Austin Xavier a bit, and he asked Mrs. Xavier, "Mom, what did you say to Paige Sterling?"

Mrs. Xavier looked displeased, "Even if she is the Sterling Family’s daughter, she shouldn’t talk to her future mother-in-law like that!"

Austin frowned, "What on earth happened?"

Mrs. Xavier said angrily, "Isn’t it all about you? Since she’s with you, she is your person, can’t you control her? Look at how she keeps sticking around Julian Hawthorne, what does that look like? Everyone is saying they’re a couple now!"

Austin’s face turned green. He wanted to be with Paige, but wasn’t he not with her?

"Mom, who told you we’re together?"

"Isn’t it true?"

Austin said coldly, "That’s not true, how could I be with her?"

Speaking through gritted teeth, Austin said, "The chairman of Penson, I can’t even match up to her."

Mrs. Xavier, "...?"

After Austin finished speaking, he left. Mrs. Xavier waited for Mr. Xavier to return and complained to him. Mr. Xavier then told her what Jared Sullivan had just said, and only then did she understand.

She suddenly looked displeased.

Jared Sullivan actually agreed to let his daughter be with Julian Hawthorne?

What was he thinking?

Mrs. Xavier beca more and more unwilling as she thought about it, both father and daughter had poor judgnt, she wanted to confront Jared Sullivan about it!

Mr. Xavier held her back and said irritably, "Are you afraid that the Sterling Family son doesn’t look up to our son?"

"Why wouldn’t she look up to my son, my son is so good..."

"You were willing to cover up for him when he was fooling around outside, Jared Sullivan didn’t know, but now he knows everything, do you think others are fools?"

In Mrs. Xavier’s eyes, she couldn’t bear her husband fooling around.

But when her son fooled around outside, it was nothing, after all, her son was young and outstanding, and had no choice if won threw themselves at him.

So she never thought Austin Xavier was wrong in finding won outside, and Paige had even less reason to have issues with her son because of this. The reason why she covered it up was that she knew Jared Sullivan seed to dislike such n.

"Even if so, but my son..."

"Enough, don’t say it anymore," Mr. Xavier said, "Let’s just forget it, and don’t bring it up again."

Bringing it up again would damage the relationship between the two families. After all, their Xavier Family son was like this, why would they demand soone marry over their excellent daughter?

The banquet continued, and Sumr Xavier walked around a bit, only to overhear Mona Wright and Skylar Hughes talking together.

Mona Wright’s words actually seed to be taking Skylar’s side, thinking Paige Sterling was scheming.

Anyway, she disparaged Paige as worthless.

This was sothing Sumr Xavier didn’t like to hear.

You can dislike soone, but blatantly lying and saying soone is worthless is too much.

Sumr Xavier then stepped forward, looking at Mona with a half-smile.

"I rember soone once said, our Paige couldn’t achieve anything significant, and would live-stream eating shit."

Then she called others over, "You all rember what Miss Wright said, right?"

Those few people ca over but didn’t speak up, after all, they were on Skylar Hughes’ side back then too.

Gathering so many people here, soon enough, many young people also ca over.

Mona Wright, seeing everyone pointing at her, felt stuck in an awkward position.

She said, "I said it had to be completely her own doing, no one else can help her. Now, are Penson’s achievents really her own work, she knows in her heart!"

Sumr Xavier let out a chuckle.

"Our Paige’s achievents are evident to all. If you want to break your promise, just break it, why make excuses? After all, everyone understands, it’s painful to get slapped in the face."

Mona Wright felt extrely embarrassed, looking toward Skylar Hughes, hoping she would say sothing because she had been defending Skylar so much, and when she was being attacked, wasn’t it only right for Skylar to defend her unconditionally?

This is what true friends are, isn’t it?

But Skylar didn’t say a word.

Now she had already beco the vicious stepdaughter in everyone’s eyes, targeting and framing Paige. If she stood with Mona at this mont, everyone would think Mona was instructed by her too.

So she could only pretend not to see Mona’s pleading eyes, sitting obediently with her head down on the side.

But in her heart, she strongly agreed with Mona’s words, while repeatedly convincing herself that Paige really had no real talent. Her current achievents were only because of Jared Sullivan.

After all, Paige just had the luck of being born well, and apart from that, she was nothing. In terms of ability, Paige couldn’t even compare to a strand of her hair.

And the only thing she lacked was having a wealthy father, otherwise, her accomplishnts would surpass Paige’s.

Mona Wright, seeing that Skylar wasn’t speaking up for her for a long ti, felt a bit disheartened.

She had to face Sumr Xavier’s sarcastic remarks on her own.

"If she was really that great, why hasn’t anyone heard of it in the entertainnt industry all these years?"

Who doesn’t know that people in the entertainnt industry are particularly good at creating personas for themselves? If Paige really had such talent in scientific research, why didn’t she seize the opportunity to create a persona for herself?

Saying this, she shouted towards Paige, "Paige, if you really want to convince , show your skills right now in front of , let everyone see, if you really are that amazing, I’ll imdiately..."

As she spoke, she suddenly stopped.

She had already been slapped in the face once, what if Paige really...

No, Skylar said Paige was truly worthless, so Paige surely couldn’t have any real talent.

But saying such words as eating shit again, she better not say it.

Paige, seeing Sumr Xavier here, walked over and said flatly to Mona, "Whether you’re convinced or not, what does it have to do with ? What impact does it have on ?"

Paige’s response made Mona think she was indeed scared.

If she had real talent, why wouldn’t she dare to show it in front of others?

If it were her, really that talented, she would have longed for the whole world to know, but Paige spent so many years in the entertainnt industry, and no one knew she had such research abilities.

It was clear enough that Paige’s achievents were truly due to her dad spending money on them.

She beca more and more smug, "Paige, you just don’t dare, right? Because you have no real talent, from the start you’ve only relied on your dad, I genuinely pity the researcher working behind you, clearly having such strong capabilities, yet ultimately have to be your background support."

The more Mona Wright spoke, the more confident she felt.
