The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan! Chapter 89: Asserting Sovereignty

Not able to see Julian Hawthorne, Helen Hale went directly to block Paige Sterling.

Just as Paige was taking the elevator downstairs, Helen blocked her inside the elevator.

Her eyes were fixed on Paige, and Paige couldn’t possibly not notice.

"Miss Hale, do you have sothing you need?" Paige asked calmly.

"I have sothing I want to discuss with Miss Sterling."

Helen’s feelings for Julian were obvious even to the blind.

However, Julian had no interest in her, so Paige naturally didn’t want to bother with Helen.

"Sorry, I’m a bit busy today. Let’s talk another day."

Helen raised her voice, "What’s Miss Sterling busy with? Busy thinking about how to be a good gold digger and squeeze more money out of Julian?"

So people have peculiar minds, thinking that a woman’s achievents can only co from a man.

It’s understandable if a man thinks this way, but for a woman to think like this, Paige found it a bit unbelievable.

"Miss Hale, mind your words."

"Did I say anything wrong? Penson Technologies was founded by Julian, right? The chairman position you have was given by him, right? It’s you who should be careful with your words, not ."

Her face was full of disdain, with an innate sense of superiority that was very unlikable.

"Miss Sterling, you sure have so skills, to make soone as shrewd as Julian invest so much money in you. As a gold digger, I must say you’re more outstanding than your peers, but Miss Sterling, you don’t even feel ashad of your status and walk around Hawthorne Group with such brazenness; don’t you find it embarrassing?"

She scrutinized Paige from head to toe, her gaze impolite and scrutinizing.

"Miss Sterling, haven’t you noticed the disgusted looks people give you? How do you ignore their disdain? Or is it that people like you have long regarded shalessness as a bragging point?"

"Miss Hale, I’ll say it again, watch your words."

Paige’s expression remained indifferent, "I might not be as eloquent as you, Miss Hale, because I prefer to resort to physical confrontation."

Helen obviously didn’t take Paige’s threat seriously.

After all, those who’ve never been hit by Paige wouldn’t know how skilled she was at fighting.

"Miss Sterling, I don’t know what spell you cast on Julian, but let tell you, as long as I’m here, your attempts to marry into a rich family will never succeed. I won’t give you the chance!"

Paige, "..."

"You’re only after Julian’s money, but do you understand him? Do you know what he truly desires? You know nothing about him. The reason he’s with you now is simply because you were there when he was lonely. At most, you’re just a tool for him to dispel his loneliness, Miss Sterling, don’t overestimate your position."

Paige suddenly turned around, stepping closer to Helen.

Helen saw her cold and stern face and retreated warily, "What do you want to do?"

She reached out to push Paige, but her hand was caught instead.

Paige was slightly taller than Hannah, and she calmly used the tiger’s mouth to pin Helen’s chin.

Applying no more force, she still restrained Helen, keeping her from daring to move.

"Miss Hale, since our first eting, you’ve been obsessively keeping an eye on , even checking my whereabouts, which makes wonder..."

She whispered in Helen’s ear, "... that you’ve fallen for ."

Helen’s face turned red, flushed with both embarrassnt and anger, "Are you crazy! I just can’t stand a woman like you clinging to Julian!"

Paige let go of her, and she imdiately distanced herself from Paige.

Paige casually flicked her hand, saying, "You know very well who’s really clinging."

Helen was montarily speechless; she wasn’t clinging to Julian. They were well-matched and were destined to be together sooner or later.

Also, she was wealthy herself, unlike Paige who was chasing after Julian’s money; she valued Julian the person.

In essence, she and Paige were not the sa kind of people, so she and Julian were mutually attached and not clinging!

"Miss Sterling, do you think just because Julian likes you, you can rest easy and enjoy a life of luxury forever? You mustn’t be so naive; entering a rich family isn’t that easy, even if Julian is montarily blinded by you. Even if I can’t stop your shalessness, Julian’s grandfather and mother will never agree to you marrying into the Hawthorne Family; in the end, you’ll end up with nothing!"

She added, "And not to ntion, Julian’s mother seems to dislike people with the surna Sterling the most. If she finds out a woman nad Sterling is clinging to her son, she definitely won’t let you off."

Seeing that Paige still didn’t have much of a reaction, Helen felt like she had been talking to herself all this ti.

She furrowed her brows, "And you don’t really know Julian; only soone like , who grew up with him, truly understands him. I know his favorite foods, his favorite colors to wear, and I even know how especially lonely he is because he has few friends, and I’ve always been by his side. In other words, my place in his heart is irreplaceable, and you will never get close to his heart. Do you understand?"

Paige, "..."

According to psychology, Helen’s claims, though sounding reasonable, were actually the opposite of the truth.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be so eager to assert her claim.

"I was abroad so ti ago, so maybe Julian was a bit lonely, which is why he turned to you for company. I’m not the petty type, so I naturally wouldn’t mind you, but I hope you have so self-awareness. Now that the real deal is back, you should disappear and not engage in pointless entanglent."

With all the other won out there, they were just playthings, but she was different. Julian wouldn’t easily make promises to her, which only showed his regard for her.

If Paige could be sensible, Helen would mind Paige taking advantage of the mont to gain so benefits from Julian.

But if Paige wasn’t wise, she couldn’t bla Helen if she ended up with nothing in the end.

Paige listened to Heather’s repeated narrative and couldn’t help but smile faintly.

The repeated declarations that Julian sought her only for companionship suggested how eager Helen was to put her in her place.

"Miss Hale, I’ve rembered everything you’ve told ."

"Good that you rember. Don’t truly believe that just because Julian introduces you as his wife, you actually see yourself as his true wife. To be honest, he only said that in front of to provoke , so don’t take it to heart and cause yourself unnecessary grief."

She continued, "You must understand that for a wealthy family like the Hawthorne Family, Julian’s wife can only be soone like , who matches him in status. I’m a magnanimous person and don’t care about small amounts of money, so I don’t mind you taking advantage of the situation to gain so money, but you better not be too greedy."

"However, if you’re willing to leave Julian’s side now, I don’t mind giving you so money, as I’m not one to cut off soone’s financial path—people like you have it tough."
