Chapter 127: Chapter 127
Paige Sterling, "..."
Sonny Chambers opened his arms to Paige Sterling, "Paige, give me a hug."
Paige Sterling’s tenderness just now made him forget Paige Sterling’s usual cold-heartedness.
He quickly received Paige Sterling’s customary cold stare, "Don’t you have legs? Walk yourself."
Sonny Chambers, "..."
The two of them entered the elevator, with Sonny Chambers still petrified.
Paige Sterling, "Aren’t you coming over?"
Sonny Chambers walked over with a face full of despair, standing next to Paige Sterling, a small figure only reaching Paige’s thigh.
He secretly reached out to grab Paige Sterling’s hand, but she slapped the back of his hand directly.
Sonny Chambers, "..."
As expected, all that tenderness was just his illusion.
Very soon, Dad Hale and his son Henry Hale returned from abroad.
Old Mrs. Hale mentioned over the phone that Helen Hale had been injured by Paige Sterling, but Dad Hale and Henry Hale never expected that Helen Hale would be beaten so severely that she was left with a disability.
If it were a normal situation, Paige Sterling wouldn’t have been so harsh on a woman.
But Helen Hale had kidnapped Sonny Chambers and targeted those around her, so if she didn’t act ruthlessly, others would think it was easy to mess with her people.
Dad Hale was furious to see his daughter in such a state.
"That Paige Sterling is too much, even if, even if she is Jared Sullivan’s daughter, she can’t do this!"
Helen Hale grabbed Dad Hale’s hand, tears streaming down her face, looking pathetic.
"Dad, my leg is ruined, you must avenge me!"
Dad Hale sighed in frustration, "Now you know how to cry? How many times have I told you? I told you to behave, to stay out of trouble with Paige Sterling, why did you insist on messing with her?"
If Paige Sterling were an ordinary person, he would have let Helen Hale be.
But Paige Sterling wasn’t; she was not someone to be trifled with at all.
Others feared Helen Hale because she had Dad Hale behind her.
But how many people knew that Paige Sterling had Jared Sullivan behind her? Julian Hawthorne?
So Paige Sterling relied entirely on herself, a person with such capability, who could mess with her?
Moreover, her reputation had spread even abroad...
Now it was too late, Helen Hale had been beaten for nothing, and they couldn’t do anything to Paige Sterling.
What made it even more infuriating was that this offense didn’t only affect the Sterling Family and the Hawthorne Family but even the Chambers Family was implicated, and Dad Hale truly felt the sting of being let down this time.
At this moment, he couldn’t help but envy Jared Sullivan.
How could they both have daughters, yet his daughter was so formidable, while his was so foolish?
As for Henry Hale, he remained silent, unsure of what to say.
To do something for a man who had no feelings for her, and ultimately entrapped herself, he just couldn’t understand how his sister could be so foolish?
Both Dad Hale and Henry Hale meant to let this matter rest for now.
If the opportunity arose in the future, they would definitely avenge Helen Hale.
But Helen Hale couldn’t bear it even for a day, unable to believe her father and brother wouldn’t help her.
"Are you still my dad? Are you still my brother? Why won’t you help me?"
Dad Hale was indignant after her relentless accusations but couldn’t bring himself to scold seeing her so miserable.
In the end, Helen Hale had no choice but to bring back Old Master Hale who was recovering in the countryside.
Old Master Hale didn’t understand the whole truth, naturally hearing only his granddaughter’s side of the story.
"Unbelievable, unbelievable, even if she’s from the Sterling Family, she shouldn’t be bullying people !"
Old Master Hale rushed to find Jared Sullivan.
On Jared Sullivan’s side, they refused to even see him, completely putting the Hale Family on their blacklist.
Old Master Hale was furious and went to find Old Master Hawthorne next.
Old Master Hawthorne couldn’t outright refuse to see him, given his longstanding relationship with Old Master Hale.
When Old Master Hale arrived, he got straight to the point, "Old Hawthorne, you know our Hale Family has only this granddaughter, raised in the palm of our hand, never willing to let her be upset, but now she’s been beaten into disability, that woman claims to be the Hawthorne Family’s granddaughter-in-law, so I came to ask, is she really the Hawthorne Family’s granddaughter-in-law?"
He’d put the issue out there, even if she really was, Old Master Hawthorne would certainly deny it, right?
After all, having such an aggressive granddaughter-in-law, isn’t it shameful?
Old Master Hawthorne replied, "She is indeed our granddaughter-in-law."
Old Master Hale was dumbfounded; it seemed the alliance between the Hawthorne Family and the Sterling Family was real. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮※𝓷𝓮𝓽
Old Master Hale gritted his teeth, continuing, "Originally our families were close, but now something happens, how do we maintain relations in the future?"
The implication was clear, Paige Sterling alone had stirred up trouble between the Hale and Hawthorne families, forcing Old Master Hawthorne to take a stance.
Old Master Hawthorne wasn’t a fool, "Helen did bring a lot of bodyguards at the time."
The implication being, your granddaughter brought so many bodyguards but was still beaten to such an extent, being outnumbered and still beaten, how is it the victim’s fault?
Old Master Hawthorne was also displeased with Old Master Hale’s reproachful attitude, "Your granddaughter is yours, it’s your business to spoil her, but whether others want to spoil her, that’s their business. You can’t force everyone to spoil your granddaughter, right?"
Old Master Hale could see Old Master Hawthorne was a bit unhappy and said, "If she made a mistake, it’s the Hale Family’s duty to discipline her, not an outsider’s. Besides, striking my granddaughter was overly excessive, wasn’t it?"
Old Master Hawthorne kept a stern face, "So you mean my granddaughter-in-law should have just laid down and let her do whatever she wanted, then afterward we’d go to the Hale Family for justice?"
By that point, everything that shouldn’t have happened would have already happened, what’s the point of seeking justice then?
What a load of crap logic.
Old Hale quickly said, "I didn’t mean that, I just thought she didn’t need to use such a heavy hand, it really was too malicious..."
Old Master Hawthorne gave a cold snort, "Speaking of malice, I didn’t expect you to raise such a malicious granddaughter."
Your granddaughter is precious, but my granddaughter-in-law is not a person? Why should she lay down and let others bully her?
Now that the Hale Family had already turned hostile against the Hawthorne Family, Old Master Hawthorne didn’t wish to keep anything anymore, Old Master Hale’s constant talk could make people think his granddaughter was a real victim.
This attitude from Old Master Hawthorne also shocked Old Master Hale.
Could it be the Hawthorne Family truly chose to sever relations with the Hale Family for that woman?
What could possibly make the Hawthorne Family willing to make such a decision?
Meanwhile, Julian Hawthorne appeared in Helen Hale’s hospital room.
Helen Hale’s eyes lit up when she saw Julian Hawthorne.
She never expected Julian Hawthorne to actually come to the hospital to see her.
Wonderful, Julian Hawthorne finally realized Paige Sterling’s cruel viciousness, realized how much grievance she had suffered!
Helen Hale’s tears flowed immediately.
"Julian, Julian, you finally came to see me..."
