Chapter 165: Chapter 165

At this moment, the official V Blog of a top national research university announced that Paige Sterling has been invited to join the school as a visiting lecturer.

This is a national-level top university, and anyone who graduates from here is a leader in their field.

The teachers here are all famous, yet such a young Paige Sterling has been invited to join their ranks.

No one doubts the university’s decision, because Paige Sterling has repeatedly proven her capabilities with facts.

Researchers from Penson also came forward in interviews, stating that they learned a lot from working with Paige Sterling, and that many of their current skills were taught to them by Paige herself, hands-on. Paige deserves to be called a teacher by them.

Once again, the internet buzzed with excitement, and Paige Sterling had become a trending goddess.

Back when everyone thought she would continue in the entertainment industry, she withdrew.

When she left the industry, she was betrayed by her boyfriend and best friend. Although she left gracefully, everyone speculated about the despair and pain in her heart, predicting she would fall into a slump, unable to extricate herself from the misery of lost love, perhaps even succumbing to depression.

Instead, she founded Penson and rapidly developed it in the country like wildfire.

When people questioned her rise to success, rumors about the men who supposedly funded her—who turned out to be her biological father, uncle, and cousin—were exposed.

When people questioned whether her abilities were bought, she used her skills to shut everyone down, and now she has even become a teacher at a top research university. Her life story could fill a multi-million-word rags-to-riches novel.

Before leaving the industry, Paige Sterling had thirty million followers on V Blog. The number fluctuated up and down, but it mostly hovered around thirty million.

However, in recent days, her followers have increased by tens of millions, making her the most followed user on V Blog.

At this point, everyone couldn’t help but think of Seth Shaw, Paige’s short-sighted ex-boyfriend.

After the breakup, he lived miserably while his ex thrived, and everyone was curious about Seth Shaw’s emotional journey now.

Some people, eager for drama, directly tagged Seth Shaw on V Blog, asking if he regretted it now.

Paige Sterling is not only a beautiful, wealthy, and talented woman, but she has now ascended to the level of representing national scientific brilliance.

One can only imagine if Seth Shaw hadn’t cheated with Melody Mercer and stayed with Paige Sterling, what his future could have been.

Does Seth Shaw regret it? Of course, he regrets it.

There was no luckier man in the world than him. He was once Paige Sterling’s first love, almost became the son-in-law of VastReach, and had billions in assets at his fingertips. Why would he need to struggle in the entertainment industry?

Likewise, there was no more short-sighted man than him, to give up Paige Sterling, a pearl, for Melody Mercer, a false gem, resulting in a ruined future and lost billion-dollar assets.

Every time Seth Shaw saw Paige Sterling’s glamorous image online, he couldn’t help but think, if he hadn’t messed around with Melody Mercer and devoted himself to Paige Sterling, and since Paige had hidden her identity from him, people wouldn’t think he was after her family’s money but rather that he truly loved her and had foresight.

He and Paige Sterling would have been seen as a celestial couple by the world, with him managing the Sterling Family’s business and Paige Sterling taking care of the family at home—what a beautiful life it would have been.

But now, this opportunity was ruined by him!

No, not by him, by Melody Mercer!

If it weren’t for Melody Mercer seducing him, none of this would have happened. He would still be Paige Sterling’s boyfriend, and at least half of her current glory would belong to him.

Just then, Melody Mercer approached, "Seth..."

Seth Shaw pushed Melody Mercer away forcefully.

Melody Mercer fell to the ground, tears streaming from the pain.

Seth Shaw’s temper had worsened, and she was finding it hard to tolerate.

But since she chose true love, and everyone was watching, she would continue to love him even if she had to kneel.

"Seth, what are you doing?"

She looked up, aggrieved, at Seth Shaw, only to see his face twisted with anger.

Melody Mercer was stunned.

"Seth, what’s wrong with you?"

Seth pointed at her, "It’s you, you whore! If you hadn’t seduced me, I wouldn’t have broken up with Paige, you whore!"

Melody Mercer was dumbfounded by his insults, tears immediately streaming down her face.

And at that moment, Seth Shaw, venting his anger, started kicking her while cursing.

Her whole body was bruised from Seth Shaw’s kicks, and she couldn’t take it anymore. She got up and hurled an ashtray at him.

"Seth Shaw, are you crazy? Cheating was your choice, and now you blame me for regretting it? You were the one who pursued me! You said Paige acted aloof and wouldn’t let you touch her..."

Back then, Seth Shaw belittled Paige Sterling to pursue Melody Mercer.

Now the situation was reversed, Seth Shaw, to avoid taking responsibility for his shortsightedness, blamed everything on Melody Mercer.

Now Melody Mercer had become the "whore" in his words. Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡⁂𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢⁂𝘯𝘦𝘵

So-called true love turned out to be .

Melody Mercer gritted her teeth, regretting ever falling for a man like Seth Shaw.

No wonder Paige Sterling let go so easily; she foolishly treated this kind of man as a treasure and ruined her promising future.

Melody Mercer mocked Seth Shaw coldly, "No matter how much you evade responsibility, you can’t change the fact that you and Paige broke up, and she would never look at you now! Just give up!"

Seth Shaw became even angrier, glaring at Melody Mercer with a dark expression.

"You’re talking nonsense! I was Paige’s first love; she will never forget me!"

It’s said that first love is the most unforgettable, and Seth Shaw, with misplaced confidence, believed Paige Sterling still remembered him.

He even thought that Paige’s high-profile activities now were perhaps deliberately done to make him regret.

He already regretted it, was already on the brink, and thought Paige’s objective had been achieved, and she would forgive him.

The more Seth Shaw thought about it, the more convinced he became, muttering to himself, "I hurt Paige for this whore, but if I go apologize and repent to her, since she loves me so much, she will surely forgive me in the end..."

If Paige didn’t forgive him, he would show his love for her through actions, and eventually, Paige Sterling would be touched.

"I’m going to find Paige, I’m going to find her right now..."

Melody Mercer grabbed the excited Seth Shaw, "You’re actually going to find Paige? Seth Shaw, are you insane?"

Not long ago, the scandal between the two of them was livestreamed all over the internet, and many people still occasionally brought it up. Was Seth Shaw shameless enough to go find Paige?

Moreover, she twisted their relationship into true love online, and if Seth Shaw went to repent to Paige now, it wouldn’t just be Seth Shaw who looked foolish. Her promoted true love would become a laughingstock.

She had already suffered enough; did she have to endure more ridicule?

"Seth Shaw, you can’t go see Paige. I won’t allow you to see her!"

Seth Shaw shoved her aside, "Get lost. I won’t let you find me again. I won’t let you make Paige sad!"

Melody Mercer fell to the ground again, watching as Seth Shaw slammed the door and left, so angry she could vomit blood.

"Seth Shaw! I said you can’t go! You can’t go!"
