The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan! Chapter 295: Look Over There
Afterward, Paige Sterling and Sumr Xavier went to the mall to shop for a while.
But they didn’t expect to encounter Ryan Abbott’s mother.
Mrs. Abbott, seeing Ryan wasn’t by her side, asked, "Sumr, is that you? Weren’t you with Ryan?"
Sumr Xavier said, "He just had sothing to do, so he left early."
Mrs. Abbott’s expression stiffened slightly, knowing full well that Ryan left Sumr at this ti to find that little tramp.
At tis like these, Mrs. Abbott hoped even more that Sumr could marry into the Abbott family sooner rather than later, so that things wouldn’t reach an irrecoverable state in the future.
Sumr Xavier was unaware of Mrs. Abbott’s thoughts and introduced Paige, saying, "Auntie, this is my friend Paige Sterling."
Paige Sterling? Mrs. Abbott’s eyes brightened, "So it’s Miss Sterling. I’ve long heard of your na."
In Mrs. Abbott’s view, Sumr Xavier not only has good family background and strong ability but also owns profitable businesses like Aura. Most importantly, it’s well known that Sumr Xavier and Paige Sterling have a good relationship. A woman like her marrying into the Abbott family would only be beneficial.
Her son, however, seed blinded by lard, completely focused on that little tramp, heedless of his future.
Luckily, her son compromised and agreed to date Sumr Xavier. If she worked harder, her son would definitely agree to marry Sumr.
As for Sumr marrying into the Abbott family and whether she’d be hurt upon learning these things was not sothing within Mrs. Abbott’s consideration.
After all, once Sumr marries into the Abbott family, she becos an Abbott. Wanting a divorce then wouldn’t be easily agreed upon, especially if they have a child. Sumr leaving the Abbott family becos even less likely. Clearly, marrying Sumr is the best for the Abbott family.
Therefore, she would definitely ensure this marriage happens, not allowing any unexpected events.
Paige Sterling also politely greeted Mrs. Abbott.
Paige’s identity is not ordinary; she’s the daughter of VastReach Group’s owner and possesses remarkable ability herself. Mrs. Abbott dares not underestimate her, smilingly says, "Since we’ve t by chance today, why don’t we shop together?"
Mrs. Abbott spoke with a smile, hoping to use this opportunity to close the gap between Paige and the Abbott family, aligning the Abbott and Sterling families.
Sumr Xavier glanced at Paige, thinking Paige probably doesn’t like shopping with strangers and guessing she’d find an excuse to decline and leave.
But unexpectedly, Paige was especially agreeable this ti, nodding, saying, "Sure, I’ve heard Auntie is known as a fashionista. I’d love to learn so style tips from you."
Mrs. Abbott laughed heartily, clearly pleased by Paige’s complints.
If Paige wasn’t already taken, she felt her son was more than a match for Paige.
After all, in Mrs. Abbott’s eyes, her son is the best man in the world, naturally deserving of soone better. So even if he’s entangled with the little cousin, it’s not his fault but that little tramp’s.
Mrs. Abbott evidently ca out to shop with the intention of going all out, even having a driver to help carry her purchases.
She also offered Paige plenty of constructive advice, secretly lanting how Paige, by relying on her good looks, dressed so casually when going out, nowhere like a wealthy heiress.
Paige listened to Mrs. Abbott’s advice but seldom bought things.
She kept pondering, wanting to use this opportunity to get Mrs. Abbott to spill the beans.
Sumr Xavier isn’t a fool; if Mrs. Abbott said anything suspicious, Sumr would surely be alerted.
Then she could investigate and find so clues, ensuring Sumr’s marriage to Ryan would be impossible.
However, Paige never had the chance to ntion these matters; firstly, because she didn’t know how to subtly bring them up, and secondly, this seed inappropriate timing.
Seeing Sumr and Mrs. Abbott selecting jewelry, Paige, bored, took out her phone and tapped on the screen, finally hacking into Ryan’s phone stealthily.
Seeing Mrs. Abbott’s earlier deanor, Paige guessed Ryan left Sumr to find that little cousin.
According to the tiline, this little cousin is pregnant.
Paige quickly located Ryan’s position—he was in a hospital.
Paige glanced at Sumr Xavier.
Sumr currently felt nothing special towards Ryan, let alone marrying. Let her know the Abbott family’s plan now, so she can withdraw in ti to avoid losing money and emotions.
Paige decided without thinking, stood up, and then fell weakly to the ground.
However, the nearby attendant was always watching her, thrilled to see God Sterling in person.
So when Paige was about to fall, the attendant ran over to catch her, "God Sterling! Are you okay?"
Sumr Xavier hurried over, seeing Paige pale, asked, "Paige, are you alright?"
Paige was always fierce, never seen so weak even after staying up for nights; Sumr felt both heartache and worry.
Paige weakly said, "A bit dizzy..."
"I’ll take you to the hospital!"
Paige sharply noticed Mrs. Abbott’s panic when Sumr ntioned going to the hospital, likely fearing Sumr would run into Ryan there.
So Paige promptly said, "Just stayed up last night, might be a bit tired. Just take ho, I’ll rest a bit and be fine."
Sumr nodded, saying to Mrs. Abbott, "Auntie, Paige isn’t feeling well, I’ll take her ho first."
Mrs. Abbott responded, "It’s fine, Miss Sterling’s not feeling well, you should hurry."
Mrs. Abbott’s deanor was very gentle, seemingly very approachable.
Yet just thinking of the sche against Sumr initiated by her, Paige felt her smile was like a poisoned knife.
Although a mother could do anything for her son, it’s understandable.
But because her son caused trouble, innocent girls and families shouldn’t be dragged into it. Such people, hiding malice in their hearts, are most terrifying. Naive like Sumr, how can she outsmart Mrs. Abbott?
Mrs. Abbott happened to et Paige’s gaze at this ti.
Paige’s eyes seed weak, casually glanced, yet Mrs. Abbott suddenly felt a bone-chilling fear.
She shivered, forcing a smile and said, "Shall I have my driver take you then?"
Sumr shook her head, "No need, Auntie. I have a car, I’ll take Paige ho."
Mrs. Abbott did not insist further, continuing to shop after Paige and Sumr left.
Sumr originally intended to drive Paige ho, but halfway passed by the hospital Ryan was at, Paige imdiately used her headache as an excuse to get Sumr to take her to the hospital.
Sumr, utterly worried, didn’t suspect anything, kept nagging Paige for not taking care of herself, staying up late, now dealing with the consequences, and even blad Julian Hawthorne, thinking he hadn’t taken good care of Paige.
Paige listened to her rant and laughed.
The car stopped at the hospital entrance, and Sumr helped Paige walk inside.
Paige glanced at her phone, Ryan seed nearby, judging by the movent, he probably was about to co out of the hospital.
Nearing the entrance, Paige halted, suddenly pulling Sumr aside.
Sumr paused, puzzled, as Paige, forrly weak, seed suddenly fine.
Paige said to her, "Don’t speak, look over there."
