At this moment, Mona Wright suddenly saw Angus Langdon.
She heard that Angus Langdon had always been at odds with Paige Sterling, and he was present just now, so he must have seen how Paige framed her.
She immediately said to Angus Langdon, "Angus, you were there too, you know what happened. Tell me, wasn’t it Paige Sterling and Summer Xavier who deliberately framed me?"
That’s right, Angus Langdon hates Paige Sterling so much, he would definitely tell the truth.
Mona Wright looked at Angus Langdon expectantly.
Angus Langdon glanced at Paige Sterling, then at Mona Wright, and finally said with a blank expression, "The poop was from my dog. It didn’t behave at home and ran out to find me."
Then it couldn’t hold it and pooped here.
So Mona Wright eating poop really had nothing to do with Paige Sterling or Summer Xavier.
Mona Wright was still struggling, "That’s impossible, it was clearly Paige Sterling framing me..."
As if blaming Paige Sterling for eating dog poop would make her less embarrassed.
Angus Langdon still looked blank, "I’m not lying, look, my dog is right over there."
Everyone looked in the direction Angus Langdon pointed, and sure enough, saw Angus Langdon’s dog crouching in the bushes.
Mona Wright looked aggrieved and glared at Angus Langdon.
Aren’t you supposed to hate Paige Sterling? Shouldn’t you seize this opportunity to drag Paige down?
"If it wasn’t for them, why did Summer Xavier run?"
Summer Xavier laughed, "Miss Wright, you were chasing me with a face full of poop, should I have waited for you to wipe it all over my face again?"
Mona Wright, "... It was clearly you guys..."
"Miss Wright, now that the truth is out, are you still blaming us and Paige? Miss Wright, do you suffer from paranoid delusions? Do you think our Paige has as much time as you do?"
Mona Wright wanted to say something, but President Wright, with a stern face, said, "Stop embarrassing me and apologize to Miss Sterling and Miss Xavier!"
President Wright’s severe gaze scared Mona Wright.
She bit her lip fiercely, "I won’t apologize. Why should I apologize? I’m the one who’s been wronged!"
Then she ran off crying.
President Wright, "..."
Finally, after a bunch of apologies from President Wright, he quickly left.
Summer Xavier jokingly asked Angus Langdon, "Angus, what kind of dog food do you feed your dog for its poop to be so smelly?"
The wind blew, and Summer Xavier, wearing thin clothes, shivered.
Paige Sterling wasn’t very cold, so she took off her coat and draped it over Summer Xavier’s shoulders.
Julian Hawthorne drove the car over from the garage, and what he saw was Paige Sterling taking off the coat he gave her and putting it on Summer Xavier’s shoulders.
She even seemed to gently remind Summer Xavier, "Don’t catch a cold."
Well, Paige Sterling’s voice wasn’t gentle at all, but in Julian Hawthorne’s eyes, she was unbelievably gentle.
Summer Xavier looked touched, and the two of them faced each other in silence, as if a thousand emotions were left unspoken.
Julian Hawthorne drove the car over with a green face, got out, glanced coldly at Summer Xavier, and then said to Paige Sterling, "Get in the car."
Paige Sterling said, "Let’s take Summer Xavier with us."
Julian Hawthorne, "Overweight."
Summer Xavier, "...!?"
Am I really making the car overweight just by getting in?
Summer Xavier wanted to argue with Julian Hawthorne, but when she saw Julian’s piercing cold eyes, she shivered immediately.
She noticed Julian Hawthorne’s gaze resting on her coat, so she quickly took it off and put it on Paige Sterling, "Paige, I’m leaving."
Paige Sterling, "...?"
The next day, the internet was abuzz with the news that Paige Sterling is the biological daughter of Jared Sullivan.
It directly took the top three spots on the trending searches on Weibo.
The whole internet was shocked; no one expected that after berating Paige Sterling for sleeping her way to the top for so long, suddenly such an earth-shattering news would break.
So, with a dad so wealthy, there was simply no need for any underhanded dealings or sleeping her way to the top.
Although after Paige Sterling’s identity was revealed, people started saying she relied on her real father.
But relying on one’s own father is better than relying on one’s body, right? Paige Sterling didn’t mind anymore.
However, there are always some people with different focuses.
A very famous influencer in the scientific community openly dissed Paige Sterling.
"I admit her background is impressive, but isn’t it because her background is impressive that her abilities can be even more questionable? A girl who entered the entertainment industry in her teens and cruised through her undergraduate years by skipping classes, can she really achieve such scientific accomplishments? Everyone is shocked that she’s Jared Sullivan’s daughter; have we completely forgotten that this doesn’t cover up Paige Sterling’s character."
"Anyone involved in scientific research knows that there’s no shortcut on this path. Starting from university, you need to put in hundreds of times more effort than an average person, just to graduate smoothly. To stand out among an endless sea of researchers, you at least need to go through several years of postgraduate studies. Even after graduating, you need real-world experience. To be a qualified expert or a core figure in this field, you need substantial academic reports. Not everyone qualifies to be a researcher. And Paige Sterling? What does she have to show? What gives her the right to claim Penson’s research achievements as her own?"
"As a physics student, I hope everyone in the industry remains diligent and grounded, rather than using a prominent background to seek undeserved fame, tarnishing our field."
The words suggested that Paige Sterling couldn’t have researched those things; even barely passing her university courses, let alone producing academic papers. If someone like her achieved such feats, what about the veteran experts who’ve dedicated their lives to this?
Frankly, this echoed the sentiments of many. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽
Paige Sterling was too young to bear such capabilities.
Before, people suspected she climbed her way up using her looks; now they suspect it was all bought and hyped by her dad.
Nobody wanted to believe such a young woman could possess such skill; otherwise, wouldn’t it undermine the professionals?
If an entertainment celebrity were so accomplished, should the others even bother?
In short, acknowledging Paige Sterling’s capability meant almost nullifying all prior efforts.
Thus, many quickly voiced support for that famous influencer online, especially fellow researchers who strongly agreed with his remarks.
"Miss Sterling already has the background; she could perfectly leverage it to be a good executive, why steal someone else’s research and court fame?"
