The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan! Chapter 179: Opposing Each Other

It’s just watching a little video, right? Why are you making a fuss?

Paige Sterling ran over and poked Julian Hawthorne in the back, "I’m just casually watching."

"Casually watching, yet they’re all his videos?"

"Isn’t it the system pushing them? It’s not like I clicked on them."

"It’s because you like watching them that the system pushes them to you."

So it was still Paige Sterling’s fault.

Paige leaned in, glanced at Julian’s expression, "Alright, I clicked on them."

Julian sat up abruptly, his eyes dark and stormy as he looked at Paige, "What do you like about him?"

Paige randomly found an excuse, "Great body."

Julian tugged at his robe, "Is my body not good?"

Paige was startled by his sudden boldness, "Good..."

"Then why look at others and not at ?"

Paige averted her eyes, only for Julian to turn her face back, "Look at ."

Paige refused, "Put your clothes on, I’m feeling a bit overheated lately."

She felt like her nose was about to bleed.

Julian reiterated, "I have a good body too."

Paige quickly said, "I know, I know, quickly put on your clothes!"

"Not gonna wear them," he pulled Paige over, "you’ve recently been distracted by other n, so I’m not doing well enough, I’ve decided that from now on..."

Paige had a bad premonition, and sure enough, Julian said, "I won’t wear clothes at ho anymore."

Paige, "..."

Mr. Hawthorne was truly terrifying when being flirty.

After Skylar Hughes got splashed with acid, even though she went to the hospital for treatnt imdiately, the doctor said a large, unfixable scar would remain on her face.

Her once perfect face had beco like this, and she nearly went insane.

Yvette Hughes, upon finding out, felt heartache, "Why did you have to go join all that chaos? Luckily it didn’t spill all over your face."

Skylar said nothing, so Yvette asked again, "What did the doctor say? Will it leave a scar?"

Skylar answered irritably, "Now you suddenly care? Weren’t you quite resolute when you kicked out?"

Yvette’s face stiffened, "Skylar, our family benefited from the Sterling Family’s care over the years, your Uncle Sterling treated us well, Paige never made things difficult for us, why can’t you just..."

Skylar stood up abruptly, "If you want to accept fate, that’s your choice, but I absolutely won’t!"

What does it an to accept fate? This was Skylar’s fate.

Seeing Skylar’s deanor change at the ntion of the topic, Yvette avoided it, "I think Paige has so particularly good skincare products, how about I talk to Paige..."

"Paige, Paige, who exactly is your daughter? Can’t you think a bit more for ? Do you really want to marry an ordinary man and live a poor life like you did for half your life?"

Yvette opened her mouth, but couldn’t say anything, watching her daughter and feeling a sudden wave of unfamiliarity.

Skylar couldn’t continue the conversation with Yvette and turned to leave.

She would never give up and never admit defeat.

She would prove that she was not inferior to Paige Sterling.

Skylar stayed up all night writing a project proposal and went to find President Lee of Apex Group.

When she was at VastReach, this President Lee would always co through her when looking for Jared Sullivan and treated her with great respect.

Skylar believed in her eye and abilities, as long as President Lee saw this proposal, he would definitely invest, and then she could start from scratch.

What was Penson to her?

Eventually, even Penson would be trampled under her feet.

But hardly after she handed the proposal to the president, the secretary ca in to inform that President Sterling from Penson had arrived.

The previously indifferent president imdiately stood up and said, "Quickly invite him in!"

The difference in attitude before and after was stark, and Skylar’s face changed slightly.

When Paige entered, the president quickly invited her to sit and instructed the secretary to serve tea.

Skylar looked at her own position, she hadn’t even been offered a cup of tea since she entered.

Previously she hadn’t noticed anything about the president’s attitude, but with Paige for comparison, the difference stood out starkly.

Clenching her fists, Skylar spoke to President Lee, "President Lee, you’ve seen my project, you’re a visionary, I believe you can see the advantages in my project, and I’m confident, if you follow my planning, Apex could soar to new heights."

President Lee chuckled, "Look, President Sterling, Miss Hughes is also here, you two sisters are both talented..."

Paige just smiled.

Skylar smiled too, walking over to Paige, "Paige, what a coincidence."

Paige pushed her chair back.

As Skylar moved forward, Paige moved back.

In short, she maintained a distance from Skylar.

Skylar asked, "Paige, what are you doing?"

Paige said, "I’m afraid you’ll end up crying and saying I bullied you, and I’m afraid I won’t be able to control my hands, so let’s keep a distance."

Skylar’s face stiffened.

Paige suddenly comnted on her face, "The pit is quite big, uh."

Skylar nearly couldn’t hold her expression.

Paige sincerely warned, "Things like these, which you bring upon yourself, you should do less of in the future."

Seeing the tense atmosphere, President Lee said, "Oh, President Sterling, look at this project Miss Hughes did..."

Skylar looked at the president, incredulously, realizing President Lee was showing Paige her project?

With soone like Paige, seeing such a good project and knowing she did it, she might shalessly claim it as her own!

However, facing President Lee, she couldn’t outright say it, so she vigilantly watched Paige.

Paige glanced at it casually, "Indeed, it’s well done."

President Lee also said, "Miss Hughes has worked at VastReach for many years and indeed has much experience, I also find that this project is beautifully done, but..."

Paige smiled, "But it’s just theoretical, with no room for practical implentation."

Skylar’s expression imdiately soured, what did Paige understand? What qualifications did she have to comnt on her project?

Looking at Paige, Skylar spoke, "Paige, do you even understand what I wrote? I’ve accumulated experience and skills over my years at VastReach, which are not sothing you can casually judge. If you want to instruct , get the professional terms right first and don’t embarrass yourself in front of President Lee, this isn’t your ho, no one will cover up your incompetence!"

Paige found it quite funny, these were the most basic professional terms, knowing them wasn’t anything to be proud or boastful about.

President Lee asked for Paige’s objective evaluation of the project proposal.

Seeing Skylar’s reaction, Paige didn’t say much.

Skylar wanted to continue discussing the project proposal with President Lee, "Paige, if you have nothing else, can you leave? I still need to discuss the project with President Lee."

Paige still said nothing, but President Lee spoke, "I have important matters to discuss with President Sterling, Miss Hughes, please step out first."

Skylar didn’t expect to be the one asked to leave, her face full of disbelief.

"President Lee?!"

President Lee chuckled, maintaining his polite deanor, and Skylar suddenly realized President Lee always smiled at her, not out of any preference, but because he smiled at everyone like that.

"Oh, take your proposal with you too, although it’s nicely written, it’s not quite suitable for my company, try elsewhere."

As the polite dismissal notice was issued, Skylar couldn’t shalessly stay any longer.

She took her proposal and left.

After leaving the office, she glanced back at Paige.

It was Paige! Knowing she was eting with President Lee, so Paige showed up to cause trouble.

Why did she hate seeing her succeed?

Why did she always oppose her?
