The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan! Chapter 183: Explanation
This ti, she used all her strength, but at that mont, Paige Sterling just happened to turn sideways, and Angus Langdon appeared out of nowhere, walking towards Paige.
As a result, Mona Wright collided directly with Angus, knocking him into the swimming pool.
Not only that, she couldn’t stop her montum and rolled in as well.
At this mont, there was no one by the pool, and neither Angus nor Mona could swim; they were flailing helplessly in the water.
Angus splashed a few tis, and he was already sinking.
As he struggled in despair, soone suddenly grabbed him and lifted him up.
His mind was blurry, and he couldn’t see who had pulled him up.
Soon, soone was pressing on his chest, he spat out a mouthful of water and woke up, seeing Skylar Hughes anxiously performing the rescue asures, and upon seeing him regain consciousness, Skylar breathed a sigh of relief.
Angus gasped for air, "Miss Hughes, thank you for saving ."
Skylar was taken aback, not responding directly, "It’s good that you’re okay."
Angus looked around but found that Paige, who had been standing by the pool, was nowhere to be seen.
Angus asked Skylar, "Where’s Paige?"
Skylar said, "She left."
When she ca over earlier, she saw Paige was all wet, so she probably went to change clothes.
Angus gritted his teeth, "She just left us in the pool, leaving us to die!?"
Everyone online was saying how vicious Skylar was, but he didn’t see Skylar being vicious, only Paige’s cruelty.
To just leave two drowning people like that.
Skylar tried to explain for Paige, "Don’t think of Paige that way; maybe she went to find help for you."
Angus sneered, everyone was praising Paige, do these people know what Paige was like in private?
He really wanted to open up those people’s minds to see if they had been implanted with Paige’s beguiling chips.
Because of this incident, Angus thought even more highly of Skylar.
That noon, Skylar went out, and by the afternoon, the sky was suddenly overcast, and soon there was a thunderstorm, a heavy rain that ca without warning.
Skylar was unprepared and had to stand under a bus stop sign to take shelter from the rain.
Without the Sterling Family’s on-call private car, she now had to rely on taxis.
But with such heavy rain, she couldn’t even get a taxi.
Skylar looked quite displeased, and the thought of having to face her stepmother and half-siblings when she got ho made her day even worse. She could have had a better life but had been hard by Paige into this.
At this mont, a figure suddenly appeared beside her, the person holding an umbrella and saying, "Co on, I’ll drive you back."
Skylar looked up and realized it was Angus.
She smiled, "Thank you, Young Master Langdon."
Skylar got into Angus’s car,
Angus asked Skylar, "Where do you live?"
Skylar told him the place.
Angus frowned.
Skylar ntioned the old city area of Jarrow, representing gri and disorder, a place Angus never went to.
He had never even heard of the specific address Skylar ntioned, and it took Skylar guiding for him to finally reach the destination.
The road was pitted and bumpy, making Angus’s face look a bit unpleasant.
Skylar said, "The car can’t go any further, Young Master Langdon, just drop off here."
Angus stopped the car, as a pampered young master of the Langdon Family, he couldn’t believe Skylar was now living in such a place.
"You’ve been living here all this ti?"
Skylar smiled, "Yeah, I’m living with my biological father now, there are a few siblings at ho, my stepmother she..."
Skylar slightly lowered her head, "She’s quite nice to too."
Angus’s hand hit the steering wheel, "The Sterling Family is too much, knowing what kind of life you have leave the house, and still threw you out?"
Skylar quickly said, "Young Master Langdon, don’t say that, the Sterling Family has been good enough to , it’s my own fault...my presence upset Paige, Daddy he..."
While speaking, her eyes already turned red, "After all, Paige is the Sterling Family’s biological daughter, it’s nothing for to suffer so grievances."
"But you’ve been in the Sterling Family for so many years, you’ve done a lot for VastReach, too, and yet they kicked you out, and that Paige really can’t tolerate anyone!"
Skylar looked grateful, "Everyone else says I can’t let go of the Sterling Family’s luxury, but only you understand , Young Master Langdon, I’m really not like that, after living together for so many years, I’ve already regarded the Sterling Family as my own family, and Uncle Sterling as my real father, Paige is my biological sister, but I didn’t expect that while I treated them as family, they never treated as family, which I suppose shows how much of a failure I am as a person..."
Skylar wiped away her tears, "Now no one believes , they think I was kicked out of the Sterling Family for being selfish and malicious, and I can’t explain myself..."
Seeing such a vulnerable yet strong Skylar, Angus felt a bit compassionate, "I believe you."
Skylar looked moved, Angus said, "I’ll walk you in."
When Angus saw where Skylar lived, he was even more shocked.
Such a small and dilapidated house, how did Skylar manage to live there?
Skylar seed unaware of the shock in Angus’s eyes and thanked him.
"Young Master Langdon, thank you for bringing back."
Angus regained his composure and said, "I should be the one thanking you, if it weren’t for you that day, I would’ve drowned."
Skylar only gave a modest smile, "Anyone else would have done the sa."
But Paige didn’t.
Contrasted with Paige’s indifference, Angus found Skylar all the more precious.
After Angus left, Skylar entered the house, and her half-sister, not much younger than her, imdiately grabbed her, eyes gleaming green, and asked, "Skylar, who was that guy? He’s so handso and seems rich, why didn’t you invite him in for us to et him?"
Skylar shook off her sister’s hand, "None of your business? You don’t belong to the sa world, I advise you to behave and not covet what doesn’t belong to you."
Her stepmother and sister’s faces imdiately turned ugly.
"Skylar, what do you an by that? Do you still think you’re the Sterling Family’s young lady? You’ve been kicked out already, if it weren’t for us taking you in, you’d be living on the streets, so what right do you have to be arrogant?"
Skylar snorted, "Even though I’ve temporarily left the Sterling Family, I’ll eventually return, the life I’ve lived for years is worlds apart from yours, the people I know are also worlds apart, that guy just now is rely one of the n pursuing . No matter how down I am, I have it better than you, easily marrying into wealth, you’d better be polite to and not provoke ..."
