The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan! Chapter 87: Faking Injury for Compensation
"I am Helen Hale, the heiress of Apex Technologies."
The security guard acknowledged, "I know, right now the position of the leader at Apex has already been replaced by our Penson."
He had a proud look on his face, being a security guard at one of the top dostic technology companies was certainly sothing to boast about.
Helen’s face turned green, "You really think highly of Penson, huh? Apex has been established in the industry for a hundred years, and a single Penson wants to replace Apex?"
Yet when she rembered that Penson belonged to the Hawthorne Group, saying such things seed inappropriate, "If not for the Hawthorne Group, what would Penson even count as?"
She sneered, feeling that Paige Sterling was truly adept at riding on the coattails of power.
"Get out of my way, I need to go into the lab right now and take a look."
The security guard was dutiful, "As I’ve said, non-essential personnel are not allowed in, please leave."
The staff from the Hawthorne Group who brought her there also advised Helen to leave.
But Helen directly charged forward.
The security guard didn’t stop her, instead, he started counting one, two, three.
When he reached three, Helen was suddenly bounced back by sothing, falling to the ground in a very embarrassing manner.
The security guard proudly said, "Our lab is equipped with the world’s most advanced security system. I think Miss Hale should refrain from recklessly barging in. If you get hurt, we won’t be able to explain ourselves."
Helen had lost face, her beautiful expression was completely twisted.
"Tell Paige Sterling to co out here!"
The security guard said, "Our President Sterling is very busy; she doesn’t have ti to see you!"
Unable to barge in, Helen had no choice but to leave angrily.
On her first day, she neither cultivated a relationship with Julian Hawthorne nor intimidated Paige Sterling.
Back at the Hale Family, her face still looked unpleasant.
Dad Hale asked her how she was doing at the Hawthorne Group, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "That Paige Sterling is really ungrateful, she even blocked outside. Penson also belongs to the Hawthorne Group, when I marry into the Hawthorne Family, won’t it all be mine? How dare she treat like this!"
Dad Hale thought, what’s her behavior towards you amount to?
She even dares to take on Apex, the industry giant head-on.
He didn’t dare provoke Paige Sterling much now, always feeling that Paige’s strength exceeded his imagination.
Nevertheless, he reminded his daughter, "I checked, Penson doesn’t belong to the Hawthorne Group. Even as technical backbone personnel, it has no connection to the Hawthorne Group. Financially, it’s separate from the Hawthorne Group..."
That’s why he considered acquiring Penson, otherwise, if it truly belonged to the Hawthorne Group, he wouldn’t dare to swallow a subsidiary of the Hawthorne Group.
But Helen still didn’t believe it.
In her eyes, Paige Sterling was just a woman with no real skills relying on her body to climb up.
Apart from relying on n, what else does such a woman know? Where would she get any real ability?
Dad Hale stroked his chin and then said to Helen, "You’ve gone to the Hawthorne Group, that’s good. Make sure to seize the opportunity to visit the lab on the eighteenth floor, and also interact more with their staff, especially the key personnel..."
Maybe through his daughter’s work at the Hawthorne Group, he could potentially get hold of Penson’s core technology.
But Helen did not take her father’s words to heart.
She went to the Hawthorne Group, solely for Julian Hawthorne, who cared about how Penson was developing?
The next day, Paige slept in, and didn’t go to the company in the morning.
Julian had a eting, so he was at the Hawthorne Group early in the morning.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, Helen imdiately caught up.
"Julian, wait for , I have a few questions that aren’t very clear, won’t you help ..."
Julian strode ahead, acting as if he hadn’t heard.
It wasn’t that he wanted to be rude, dealing with clingy won who love to think too much, he couldn’t be too polite.
His attitude left Helen feeling aggrieved, "Julian, it’s grandpa who let co to the company to learn from you. Do I really make you so annoyed that you’re not even willing to teach ?"
Julian didn’t stop walking, his voice indifferent.
"Isn’t my attitude clear enough? Or did Miss Hale not hear what I said clearly before?"
Even when Helen first began to harass him, he clearly said that it was impossible between them.
But Helen’s pestering did not stop.
Julian naturally couldn’t be bothered with her, simply treating her like air.
After all, now he’s married to Paige Sterling, and he already directly told Helen that Paige is his wife. Helen still ca to pester him, she really must be out of her mind.
Why did the old man let Helen into the company knowing her intentions, what’s his plan?
If it weren’t for the old man’s face, he would have directly had soone drag Helen out.
"Julian, I know you don’t like often approaching you at the company, but I’m truly here to learn this ti. Can’t you teach ?"
"I don’t have any obligation to teach you anything."
Having said that, he no longer paid attention to Helen and directly entered the conference room.
Helen bit her lip angrily, why is Julian getting more and more excessive towards her?
It must be that Paige Sterling sowing discord in front of Julian, otherwise, why would Julian treat her like this!
Such a deeply scheming woman!
Paige also went to the company in the afternoon.
Jarrow had severe traffic jams, so she didn’t drive and took a shortcut to the Hawthorne Group.
While passing through a small alley, a grandfather squatting by the road suddenly rolled to her feet.
Paige stood still, and the old man quickly hugged Paige’s leg, starting to moan pitifully.
"You pushed , you pushed , oh no, my old bones are shattered..."
Paige, "..."
Today must be an unlucky day, she was actually caught by a professional scamr.
Paige smiled and asked, "What do you want to do?"
The old man raised his head, looking proud, "Young lady, there are no caras here. Quickly pay and I’ll let you go, or else, hmph hmph..."
Really so arrogant.
Paige sneered, "No caras and still so arrogant? Who gave you the courage?"
Then she kicked him away and walked off without looking back.
The old man was truly stunned, how could this young lady not play by the rules? How could she treat an old man like this?
Paige reached the seventeenth floor and turned on the computer.
Now that Penson’s core technology was sold abroad, it was also boosting the pride of the countryn.
Especially not long ago, when a dostic team was dispatched to a Western war-torn country for humanitarian aid.
It turned out that their bulletproof vests couldn’t be penetrated by bullets,.
While the abroad supposedly most sturdy bulletproof vests were smashed to smithereens by the dostic ones.
People abroad tried to learn by subtle ans and found out they were Penson’s products too.
That’s when the dostic netizens realized Penson had even made money from the state.
Various foreign institutions and forces contacted Penson, wanting to buy these bulletproof vests.
But Penson stated the bulletproof vests wouldn’t be exported, as the dostic market couldn’t even be satisfied.
