Chapter 139: Chapter 139

Paige Sterling let out a sound.

Wendy Wallace’s face turned green. To Paige Sterling, it seemed like she had always regarded Wendy as an enemy, yet Wendy didn’t even know who she was.

It was as if, in Paige Sterling’s eyes, Wendy wasn’t even qualified to be her enemy.

Wendy stared intently at Paige Sterling, and Paige Sterling repeated, "Wendy, if you want to jump, you can jump now."

"Paige Sterling, what did you say?"

Paige raised an eyebrow, "Are you scared to jump because it’s too high? It’s alright, just close your eyes and pretend you’re flying. At the speed of free fall, you’ll reach the ground in ten seconds at most, and there won’t be much pain. You don’t have to be too afraid."

Wendy looked at Paige like she was seeing a weirdo, unable to believe she actually said something like that.

"Paige Sterling, I’m about to be driven to death by you, and you can still say something like that? Are you even human?"

Paige’s expression remained indifferent, as if she were an outsider.

"If you want to die, it’s your own choice. What does it have to do with me? Or do you think losing your life can tilt the earth or change the laws of the universe? Are you overestimating yourself a bit? You’re just a small unknown in the entertainment industry. Even if you die, you won’t make a ripple in this world. This is the only thing you’ll be impressive for, so cherish it. After this moment, your days of being in the spotlight will end."

Everyone present was stunned.

Paige pointed to the group of reporters, "Aren’t you all here to take photos? This is the most dazzling moment she’s exchanging her life for, aren’t you hurrying up to capture it?"

Paige, "Miss Wendy here has paved a new path to a minor peak in life for everyone in darkness worldwide. From now on, if anyone is discontented or makes a mistake they can’t be forgiven for, they don’t need to work hard or pay any price. Just sit on a rooftop, and the whole world will revolve around you. The victim will even have to apologize and agree to all your demands. See, it’s so easy! Sit up there, and when you come down, you’re a winner in life. Your life isn’t going well either, right? Everyone can sit up there now. Let’s talk about life and jump together."

Paige, "Now that I think about it, all my hard work is unnecessary. Shouldn’t I just go and sit up there too?"

Everyone thought Paige was just talking, but in the blink of an eye, she stood outside the railing.

Siblings Evan Chambers and Burt Chambers were shocked.

Paige even said to Wendy, "You’re not in a good spot to jump. Come over to my side. It’s narrower, the wind is just right, and the view is open. When you jump down, you’ll pick up speed, and the pain will be a little less."

Evan Chambers shouted at Paige, "Paige! What are you doing? Come back here!"

Burt Chambers pointed at Mrs. Wallace and Wendy, "You drove my cousin to death. You’re also the executioners. We won’t let you go!"

Mr. Wallace and Mrs. Wallace, "..."

The logic they just used was now being used on them by Burt Chambers, and it was spot on.

Meanwhile, Wendy was utterly dumbfounded.

She was the one contemplating suicide, so why was Paige joining in on the chaos?

"Come on over," Paige was still beckoning to Wendy. The rıghtful source is 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵·𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮·𝓷𝓮𝓽

Wendy didn’t genuinely want to commit suicide, and Paige’s position really scared her to death. Her legs were a bit shaky.

And the place Wendy was standing was just right, she wouldn’t accidentally fall as long as she didn’t look down; she wouldn’t tremble.

Once she achieved her aim, someone just had to pull her, and she’d come over easily.

But now with Paige making a scene, she’d seem like a poser if she didn’t commit suicide.

But she couldn’t possibly actually kill herself.

As Wendy was terrified, Paige said, "Afraid to come over? Then I’ll come to you."

As she spoke, she indeed walked over to Wendy.

While Wendy was still in a daze, Paige had already reached her.

Everyone thought that this was the moment Paige should seize to approach Wendy and pull her back, right?

Unexpectedly, Paige didn’t follow the common path; she went directly to pry Wendy’s hand, "Aren’t you going to jump? Why are you holding tight? How can you jump ?"

"Let go and jump quickly."

Seeing her hand almost being pried open by Paige and the possibility of being pushed down, Wendy screamed at the top of her lungs.

"Help! I don’t want to die!"

Several police officers immediately came forward to pull Wendy back, looking bewildered.

If you don’t want to die, what the heck were you doing up there?

Wasting police resources?

With Wendy retreated, Evan Chambers beckoned to Paige, "Paige, it’s dangerous up there. Please come down."

Paige snorted coldly, "I’m not like those fools who only talk about jumping. If I want to jump, I’ll really jump."

Evan Chambers had yet to react when the next moment, Paige disappeared from sight.

Everyone on the rooftop was dumbfounded.

They never expected that the one who talked about jumping didn’t, and in the end, Paige actually did.

Even Evan Chambers, a seven-foot man, felt his head spin, almost fainting.

The secretary quickly supported him, feeling complex emotions.

Miss Sterling didn’t look like the type to commit suicide; why would she do something so reckless?

Burt Chambers also fell to the ground in a slump.

Why did The Great Demon Sterling become so despondent?

However, when Paige jumped, there was a sudden uproar of cheering from below.

The people on the rooftop, too afraid to look down, were all stunned.

A policeman took a glance outside and was also wide-eyed, "What’s that?"

Others quickly moved over to take a look.

Supported by his secretary, Evan Chambers also walked to the iron railing, where he saw a red kite flying with direction in the air.

It looked like a wingsuit, yet somewhat different.

Anyway, those who saw it had only one word left—awestruck.

Gosh, is Paige Sterling even human?

Wendy thinks she can compete with her? What makes her think she can? Paige is black technology at its finest.

So, this time, Wendy’s suicide attempt resulted in nothing. She was mocked by the whole internet, and Paige even used this opportunity to subtly advertise Penson’s new product without a hitch.

However, back home, Paige Sterling wasn’t so lucky.

Julian Hawthorne looked at her as if to tear her apart.

"You told me to leave, said you could handle it, and then went off to commit suicide? This is your solution?"

Seeing Paige jump off, he nearly went insane.

Yet when he finally saw her land safely, he breathed a sigh of relief but also wanted to drag her to him and beat her senselessly.

But he held back, waiting at home for Paige to return on her own.

Julian Hawthorne was terrifying today, even Sonny Chambers stayed holed up in his room, not daring to provoke him.

Paige also felt a bit guilty, "I wasn’t really going to..."

Paige, "Why are you yelling so loudly?"

Julian Hawthorne gave Paige a fierce look.

Paige slowly lowered her head, touched Julian Hawthorne’s chest with her head, "I know I was wrong."

Each bump seemed to hit Julian Hawthorne’s heart, and whatever anger he had suddenly dissipated.

In the end, he could never truly be angry with Paige Sterling.

Julian Hawthorne sighed in defeat, "Paige Sterling, you always do this!"

Paige, "I know I was wrong."

"You always say you’re wrong but never change!"

Paige rubbed her nose.

Julian Hawthorne sneered, "If you do this again, I’ll deal with you."

Paige licked her lips, wrapping her arms around his neck, "How is Mr. Hawthorne going to deal with me?"

Julian Hawthorne lowered his head, capturing her lips immediately.

Sonny Chambers inside the room, "..."

The Great Demon Sterling seduces The Hawthorne Devil every time she gets into trouble, such a shameless tactic!
