The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan! Chapter 458: Far Too Petty
Otherwise, how could she make Alisa willingly help her?
So Julian Hawthorne said, "I don’t want to see her, tell her not to co and bother again."
Alisa was pleased with Julian Hawthorne’s attitude as she sat on his lap, wrapped her arms around his neck, and playfully traced circles on his chest.
"Julian, now that you’ve seen the true colors of that woman and are no longer deceived by her, I’m really glad. But she’s still holding the position of your wife. If you don’t find a way to deal with her quickly, are you planning to make your mistress in na only, unable to lift my head for my whole life?"
Hmph, let Julian Hawthorne personally end this relationship with Paige Sterling, making Paige realize that in this relationship, she’s nothing but a complete loser. What’s there for her to be proud of?
No matter how much she gains, she surprisingly loses Julian Hawthorne’s affection.
Thinking about Paige Sterling possibly being hit hard, she couldn’t help but laugh.
After hearing Alisa’s words, Julian Hawthorne didn’t respond imdiately.
He felt troubled inside. Whether it was giving up Paige Sterling or Alisa, he couldn’t bear it.
But weighing the pros and cons, he felt he should choose Alisa.
Paige Sterling’s relations with the governnt were too close, and she was too familiar with the real Julian Hawthorne. Being too close to Paige Sterling would undoubtedly put him at risk of exposure.
Moreover, if exposed, he couldn’t eliminate Paige Sterling because her backing was too strong.
Alisa was different; until now, Alisa fully believed he was the real Julian Hawthorne.
Although Alisa couldn’t match Paige Sterling in terms of power, prestige, wealth, talent, or personal charm, Alisa wholeheartedly believed in him and was willing to support him, which was better than Paige Sterling.
However, he didn’t plan to choose now; maybe there would be a turn in the future, and he could have both won?
If it was in the past, he wouldn’t have dared to think of such a thing.
But things were different now; he was Julian Hawthorne. His identity and status allowed him to open a powerful harem, becoming the man all n dreamt of being.
If Alisa knew that, in Julian Hawthorne’s heart, she was no match for Paige Sterling in any aspect, and he only regarded her as a mber of his harem, she’d probably be furious.
"Alisa, let’s talk about this matter later. You know my current situation..."
Julian Hawthorne sighed, and Alisa’s attention shifted as she said, "Julian, you’re the head of the Hawthorne Family. The Hawthorne Family is what it is today because of you. You shouldn’t avoid The Hawthorne Family just because of Miss Sterling. If you do, all your efforts over the years will benefit others. I don’t want to see that result. You should take back what’s yours..."
Indeed, Julian Hawthorne thought he should return to The Hawthorne Family.
Looking down at Alisa, his hands road over her body, but he said hesitantly, "The Hawthorne Family is now in my brother’s hands. My mother sides with my brother, and my grandfather, sigh... In my current state, going back to The Hawthorne Family might be..."
Alisa laughed coquettishly in his arms, "With my help, what are you afraid of? Don’t you trust my abilities?"
"Of course I trust your abilities." With those words, Julian Hawthorne was relieved, "But if I go back, Paige Sterling will have the chance to pester all day, don’t you worry?"
"As long as your heart is with , what’s there to worry about?"
Alisa was very confident in herself. Now that Julian Hawthorne had fallen in love with her and tasted her charm, how could he possibly betray her?
No man, once in love with her, could ever leave her.
"Besides, I won’t let such petty jealousies affect your big business. I’m not like Paige Sterling; don’t underestimate ."
Julian Hawthorne couldn’t resist Alisa’s teasing and directly threw her onto the table, pressing down, "Seductress, you’re almost draining my energy; I never dared underestimate you."
Alisa giggled, "Julian, don’t be like that, Miss Sterling is still waiting for you outside..."
Julian Hawthorne thought Alisa ant outside the door, not knowing Paige Sterling had been brought to the living room by Alisa.
So Julian Hawthorne said, "Let her wait, don’t bother."
Paige Sterling was in the living room, listening to the live version of the two’s intimate encounter.
Wayne Wright watched her face, not missing even a subtle change.
Seeing no reaction from Paige Sterling, he felt an indescribable sense.
After a while, he said, "Should I go up and check?"
Paige Sterling’s gaze fell on Wayne Wright, with a unique focus, "You’ve stopped stuttering?"
Wayne Wright, "..."
Seeing his dumbstruck expression, Paige Sterling said, "This isn’t my house; I better not wander around. Let’s just wait here."
Wayne Wright couldn’t help asking, "You don’t mind?"
Paige Sterling said, "If they don’t mind listening, why should I mind? It’s not like I haven’t listened to voice actors before."
Wayne Wright, "..."
In Paige Sterling’s eyes, the Julian Hawthorne inside was her husband. Her husband tangled with another woman, yet she remained so calm.
Was it because she knew that Julian Hawthorne wasn’t real or...
She simply didn’t care?
Wayne Wright felt increasingly bitter inside, his expression also heavy.
Paige Sterling glanced at him, saying, "You don’t need to be anxious, give them so ti; if they don’t co out, we’ll leave."
Wayne Wright, "..."
Was he anxious?
Fatty Sterling was quite interested in peeling an apple. Wayne Wright watched her nearly cut her finger several tis and took the knife, peeling an apple for her.
Paige Sterling glanced at the apple for a while, then at Wayne Wright.
Wayne Wright’s breath caught, he didn’t speak.
After a while, Paige Sterling withdrew her gaze, "The apple you peel is just like my husband’s."
Wayne Wright, "...", aren’t all apples peeled with knives the sa?
After Paige Sterling finished her apple, Julian Hawthorne and Alisa ca out of the room together.
Both were still a bit disheveled, with Alisa intentionally leaving her collar open, revealing ambiguous marks on her body.
Seeing Paige Sterling, Julian Hawthorne’s face stiffened.
How long had Paige Sterling been sitting here? Heard everything? Paige Sterling wouldn’t make a scene with him, right?
He felt a bit awkward all of a sudden.
Alisa glanced at Julian Hawthorne, knowing that facing an ex, Julian would feel sowhat embarrassed; it was inevitable.
Yet she felt no embarrassnt, instead smiling languidly, "Oh dear, Miss Sterling, sorry to keep you waiting."
Then she coquettishly blad Julian Hawthorne, "It’s your fault; I told you Miss Sterling was waiting, yet you teased ."
Julian Hawthorne continued to feel awkward, looking at Paige Sterling to change the subject, "Paige, are you here to persuade to go back?"
Without waiting for Paige Sterling to respond, he said, "In that case, I’ll go back to The Hawthorne Family with you today."
He was already eager to return to The Hawthorne Family and make his mark.
Paige Sterling stood up abruptly, coldly saying, "I think you better not go back right now and stay here with Miss Alisa."
Was Paige Sterling angry now? Julian Hawthorne couldn’t help but frown; wasn’t he just dating another woman outside? Don’t successful n always have flocks of admirers?
Why should Paige Sterling be mad over such a trivial matter? Really lacking magnanimity.
"Paige, you..."
