The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan!-Chapter 447: What Else Can I Do

When everyone thought the leader of the Hawthorne Family was in trouble and the Jarrow business circle would be reshuffled, Julian Hawthorne returned.

At that time, Paige Sterling was still in the laboratory, and Miles Morgan was the first to find Paige, wanting to tell her the news.

But at the moment he saw Paige, he found himself tongue-tied.

Clearly a good pair, how did it come to this?

Fate is truly cruel. I wonder if Paige can handle this blow.

Paige asked, seeing his demeanor, "What happened?"

Miles took a deep breath and said, "Paige, what I’m about to say might be cruel; you need to be mentally prepared."

Paige raised an eyebrow, "Did Julian come back?"

Miles’s prepared emotions instantly dissipated. He asked Paige, "Paige, how did you know?"

"I guessed from your expression," she replied, then asked, "Does Julian have any missing limbs or anything?"

Miles shook his head, "Apparently not."

Paige relaxed her expression, "Then I’m relieved."

"But his situation isn’t optimistic," Miles said. "I heard he’s unconscious now; the doctors are helpless. They said his brain is injured, and he might be a vegetable for life..."

This man, Julian, is really struck by lightning too much. Got someone pregnant and now became a vegetable—is this how our God Sterling gets treated?

"And the one who saved him was Alisa. Now everyone’s saying Alisa risked her own safety out of true love for President Hawthorne..."

He was careful saying this, afraid Paige might throw things and hit someone, "Paige, are you alright?"

Seeing Paige’s calm expression, Miles asked again, "Paige, aren’t you angry?"

"After going through the ordeal of him dying, how can I still be angry?"

Miles felt that Paige was like the calm before the storm.

"What do you plan to do now?"

Paige sighed, "Is he at the hospital or with the Hawthorne Family? I’ll go see him."

Listening to Paige’s tone, Miles felt she didn’t care about Julian. Has her heart been broken?

Alas, it seems that Julian and God Sterling’s fate ends here; as Paige’s number one fanboy, he should select some young talents for Paige and run her harem lively, showing the Hawthorne Family that while they don’t treasure her, some do treasure God Sterling.

Julian was now at the hospital, surrounded by bodyguards. When she went there, she couldn’t even get to the floor before being stopped.

The one who stopped her was Alisa, the savior who brought Julian back.

Alisa stood on high ground, looking at Paige with a condescending air.

"Miss Sterling, I’m sorry, you cannot go in to see President Hawthorne."

Paige looked at Alisa, "I now need someone’s permission even to visit my own husband?"

Alisa said sarcastically, "Miss Sterling, do you have the nerve to claim President Hawthorne as your husband? Have you fulfilled your responsibilities as a wife? Where were you when President Hawthorne was in danger? You were enjoying yourself in Jarrow, doing nothing. What qualifications do you have to call yourself President Hawthorne’s wife now?"

Alisa’s chin was raised high, once defeated by Paige, but now she finally regained her proud capital.

What could be more satisfying than taking Paige’s man and hitting her hard?

Even if Paige has the nation supporting her, even if the marriage is royal, when Julian becomes a vegetable, can a country handle personal affairs forever?

And seeing Paige’s attitude, knowing Julian became a vegetable, she probably desperately wants to leave him, right?

She had overestimated Paige, thinking Paige was invincible.

But now looking at Paige from a different perspective, she realized Paige isn’t perfect, not unbeatable.

In scientific talent, perhaps she couldn’t surpass Paige, but in other aspects, she was a complete victory over Paige.

"These past days, I’ve been by President Hawthorne’s side through life and death. This kind of bond forged through life-threatening experiences, I’m sure Miss Sterling wouldn’t understand, as Miss Sterling only knows how to enjoy the benefits..."

Paige didn’t speak.

Yet Alisa had a lot to say.

Finally able to hold her head high, she naturally would voice out all her pent-up words to let Paige know her pride at this moment.

"Miss Sterling might not know, but President Hawthorne told me before the incident that he finally saw clearly who truly cared for him. He would divorce Miss Sterling upon return. So in my view, you are no longer President Hawthorne’s wife— I am, and even if he remains unconscious forever, I’m willing to stay by his side for a lifetime. Miss Sterling, ask yourself honestly, can you do that?"

Paige saw Alisa was sincere and didn’t want to seem too indifferent, so she sincerely said, "I can."

Alisa, "..."

What was supposed to be a touching atmosphere turned into a comedic scene by a single sentence from Paige.

Paige then earnestly said, "Miss Alisa, you saved my husband, I express my utmost gratitude once again, really."

Alisa frowned, annoyed, "I don’t need your gratitude. I saved President Hawthorne because I love him. Saving my beloved man doesn’t require gratitude from an outsider. Miss Sterling, you have no ground to thank me, so please keep your gratitude to yourself and don’t embarrass yourself anymore."

Paige seeing her like that, her mouth twitched again, "Since Miss Alisa says so, then I’ll leave Julian to you. I’ll be going."

Watching Paige’s straightforward departure, Alisa revealed a disdainful expression.

See, just like that, she held onto Julian tightly before, only for his money and status.

Now knowing Julian became a vegetable, she was scared to be stuck with him, not even pretending to care, simply walking away.

This woman truly wasted Julian’s sincere heart, not worthy of Julian’s love.

But it doesn’t matter; from now on, she will be by his side.

No matter how many men she had before, from now on, there will only be Julian.

She will let Julian feel loved, feel the joy of a true man.

But she won’t let Paige leave just like that.

"Mrs. Hawthorne can leave, but shouldn’t you return some things?"

Paige stopped and looked at Alisa, "Do I owe you something?"

Alisa glanced at Paige’s neck, knowing she wore the ring Julian gave her.

"A ring is a sacred symbol of marriage; now Miss Sterling and President Hawthorne’s marriage is already in name only. That ring he gave you is no longer yours. Miss Sterling, please return it, don’t keep something that doesn’t belong to you."

Even managing someone’s ring?

Alisa’s attitude is practically like she already became Julian’s wife.

Paige laughed, "What if I don’t give it back?"

If Paige doesn’t return it, Alisa obviously can’t do anything.
