The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan! Chapter 344: Yielding to You

In other words, if she and Jared Sullivan don’t get along in the future, it’ll all be because of Paige Sterling.

Jared Sullivan’s expression grew increasingly grim.

"Enough. Just because your daughter can’t be mistreated, does that an mine can? Stop using my relationship with you to pressure Beau. If my marriage ans my daughter has to suffer, I’d rather get a divorce!"

The word "divorce" ca out, leaving Yvette Hughes with no confidence at all.

This was the first ti Jared Sullivan had ever seriously ntioned divorce, and she was even more flustered.

Clearly, she was just a ek and gentle woman. Jared Sullivan obviously knew she couldn’t do without her daughter, so why wouldn’t he let Skylar off the hook? Why did he have to threaten her with divorce?

She once thought that marrying Jared Sullivan ant she would have support for life, which is why she always obeyed him without asking for anything else.

She only sought Jared Sullivan’s affection and never wanted his money.

But it turned out Jared Sullivan was just another heartless man!

Why was Yvette Hughes’s life so miserable?

The more Yvette thought about it, the sadder she beca, and she began to cry.

But this ti, Jared Sullivan did not hold her in his arms and console her with tenderness. He rely watched coldly.

As the police were about to take Skylar Hughes and Chloe Hughes away, Yvette Hughes finally couldn’t cry anymore. She got out of bed to stop them.

"Officers, please don’t arrest my daughter, she hasn’t done anything wrong..."

The police said helplessly, "Ms. Sterling has already filed a report. We’re just following protocol to take them in for questioning. Ms. Hughes, please cooperate."

"No officers, they’re both my daughters. They’ve just been bickering since they were little, and the more they argue, the closer they get. This ti, it even involved you officers, making a joke out of it. Please let them go..."

The officer, "..." chuckled slightly.

Yvette Hughes still clung on and refused to let go, "Officers, could you release them first? This is a family matter, I will handle it myself..."

The police officer’s cheek twitched sharply. The matter had escalated this much, Paige Sterling had expressed her intent to pursue it, and yet Yvette Hughes was here trying to brush it under the carpet, thinking the authority of law and administration was a joke?

"Ms. Hughes, the report was filed by Ms. Sterling, and she’s provided all sorts of evidence. The police have officially taken the case. If Ms. Hughes has objections, you can also provide evidence to dispute the claim or discuss a private settlent with Ms. Sterling. As long as Ms. Sterling doesn’t relent, we will pursue this case to the end."

If it was possible to talk to Paige Sterling, Yvette Hughes wouldn’t be so panicked.

She looked towards Paige Sterling.

Paige used to sowhat give her face. She had never been so ruthless in her actions, especially since Jared Sullivan was there...

This ti, it was as if both father and daughter were determined to deal with Skylar Hughes. Didn’t they realize Skylar was her only daughter? What would she do if she were really imprisoned?

For the first ti, she harbored resentnt towards the father and daughter.

Clearly, the child was hers and she didn’t mind, so why couldn’t the father and daughter let Skylar Hughes off?

Yet now she was a bit afraid of the father and daughter, "Officers, this really is just a small matter, sothing between two kids playing around..."

The officer remained impartial, "Ms. Hughes, whether you were playing around or not, we only act according to the law and regulations. If you have objections, take it up with Ms. Sterling. Please do not obstruct our work."

After saying this, the officer ignored Yvette Hughes’s hindrance and took Skylar Hughes and Chloe Hughes away.

Yvette Hughes chased a few steps, falling in the corridor, looking truly miserable.

Jared Sullivan had the nurse help her back.

Yvette Hughes shook off the nurse’s hand, tearfully looking at Paige Sterling.

"Paige, no matter what, Skylar is your sister. You grew up together. How could you report her? If word gets out, others will say you’re cold-hearted and indifferent to familial bonds. It won’t be good for you either."

Paige Sterling, "..."

Yvette Hughes, "Paige, let Skylar go. She really knows she was wrong this ti. Go talk to the police, let Skylar go. Auntie only has this one daughter. If you charge her, you’re forcing Auntie into a corner. Auntie has already lost one child, she can’t lose this one..."

Paige Sterling, "..."

Yvette Hughes, "I lost a child and I don’t mind, aren’t you fine? Why must you take it so seriously? Why must it escalate to this point?"

Paige Sterling finally spoke, her tone cold.

"I’m fine, so I shouldn’t mind? What if sothing did happen to ? Auntie, do you think your daughter’s life could compensate for it?"

Paige’s question was sharp, leaving Skylar montarily speechless.

"It’s not that serious..."

However, her words carried little confidence.

"Whether what she did to is serious or not isn’t for you to decide," Paige’s tone held no emotion.

"How many tis she plotted against in the past, you know very well. Just because I dodged them doesn’t an those sches and hurts didn’t exist. I considered your relationship with my dad, so I let her off again and again. But I’m really tired of those clowns jumping around every few days, and I’m even more disgusted by you using your relationship with my dad for moral coercion..."

Yvette Hughes’s face turned red. She wanted to deny that she had used her relationship with Jared to morally coerce Paige.

But as soon as the words reached the tip of her tongue, she rembered she had just done it earlier.

Yvette Hughes could only stamr out, "But Skylar already knows she was wrong, she’s asking for your forgiveness..."

"Claiming to know she was wrong is just a self-preservation thod because the truth got out. Had she not failed, she would never admit her mistake. And your so-called realization of her wrongdoing is only for your own peace of mind. You don’t care if others have truly forgiven her or if they wish to forgive. You only care that you feel better, right, Auntie?"

Yvette Hughes, "..."

Paige Sterling, "Now I also have no choice. Since you are so magnanimous, you will surely understand my predicant, right? After all, your daughter is human, and soone else’s daughter is human too. You love your daughter, and my dad loves his daughter too. Now with what’s happened, it’s not only hard for you, it’s difficult for my dad too. You ask people to understand you as a mother, why can’t you understand my dad for once? Or do you think my dad should be unconditionally compliant with you?"

Skylar Hughes denied, "No, I didn’t..."

"Whether or not, you can discuss it with my dad."

After saying this, Paige left.

Yvette Hughes suddenly faced Jared Sullivan’s cold face.

The room was silent for a mont until Jared Sullivan said, "Get so rest, I’m leaving."

Then he left without looking back.

Yvette Hughes collapsed to the ground—Jared Sullivan had never been so cold towards her.

She couldn’t understand; she had always been well-behaved. Why, in the end, did her daughter betray her, and why did her husband treat her like this?

As the one who reported, Paige Sterling later had to go to the police station to assist with the investigation, naturally encountering Skylar Hughes there.

Skylar Hughes looked exhausted, her face incredibly pale.

"Paige Sterling, are you satisfied now? My mom’s given up on , and now I’m arrested. Are you very proud, very happy to have brought to this point?"

Paige Sterling replied with a sarcastic "Haha" in uppercase.

Such disdainful attitude fell into Skylar Hughes’s eyes, instantly making the whites of her eyes bloodshot with anger, "Paige Sterling, speak up. Are you very proud now? Are you very happy?"

Paige Sterling’s expression was calm, "Why do you always view yourself as so important? I have many aningful things to do. Why should I feel happy over soone as trivial as you? Whether you fail or succeed, it ans nothing to . It was like that in the past, it is like that now, and it will be like that in the future. The only one who ever regarded you highly is yourself."
