Chapter 180: Chapter 180

Skylar Hughes became more and more frustrated. Previously, whenever she wanted to deal with Paige Sterling, it was always easy, and she could keep herself clean.

However, now, whenever she wants to deal with Paige Sterling, she ends up hurting herself.

The more this happens, the more unwilling she becomes.

If she can’t deal with Paige Sterling in real life, surely she can do it online?

Previously, Skylar Hughes used her identity as the Sterling Family’s daughter and subtly flaunted her wealth online, even openly discussing her charitable work, which helped her gain quite a few followers.

But after the news that Paige is Jared Sullivan’s biological daughter was exposed, she faced doubts. Some believed she was pretending to be the Sterling Family’s young lady for fame. Consequently, the microblog was filled with chaos, and she dared not respond.

Now, she can respond.

This was her first time standing up to explain the context and consequences after Paige’s identity was revealed.

Only then did everyone realize she was Jared Sullivan’s stepdaughter.

Calculating it this way, she’s also the Sterling Family’s daughter, no problem.

If there’s no problem here, then the issue of Skylar Hughes pretending to be the young lady is void.

Skylar Hughes deliberately or unintentionally revealed on her microblog that she’s contributed a lot to the Sterling Family and VastReach, but due to Paige Sterling’s unreasonable troublemaking, Jared Sullivan pampered his daughter and now has turned against her, chasing her out of the Sterling Family without mercy.

Paige even pressured her using her identity as the Sterling Family’s daughter due to jealousy over her talents.

She now wants to start a business, but everywhere Paige Sterling obstructs her.

In her narrative, Paige Sterling became a malicious woman who targets her out of jealousy for her talent and abilities.

Although this was only subtly expressed, not explicitly stated, her words were enough for netizens to wildly imagine.

After discovering that netizens misunderstood according to her intention, she compounded the situation with another explanatory microblog, stating that she and Paige Sterling had quite a good relationship in childhood, but Paige Sterling had too good a background, with family pampering that made her arrogant, always wanting to be first, valuing first place too much, and couldn’t tolerate anyone better than her.

Between the lines, it hinted that Paige Sterling would use other means to obtain the first place if she couldn’t achieve it fairly, portraying her as a woman who would stop at nothing to achieve her goals.

Paige Sterling genuinely didn’t take these postings seriously.

Saying that without the Sterling Family, without support, Skylar Hughes was at the end of her rope, completely lacking any legitimate means to deal with her, only resorting to unprofessional methods.

She treated Skylar Hughes as a spectacle every day.

However, those who knew Paige Sterling couldn’t stand Skylar Hughes causing trouble online.

For example, Summer Xavier, who was beyond furious when she saw these things online.

She directly used her main account to confront Skylar Hughes.

"Some people refuse to accept when they’re given face, and after their ugly deeds are exposed, run online to play the victim. Do I need to expose what you’ve done for you to understand what ’why the flowers are so red’ means?"

Skylar Hughes immediately cried out her grievances on the internet, portraying herself as someone insignificant and powerless, saying she wouldn’t dare speak carelessly in the future.

The truth on the internet is always mixed, she had a good grasp of the rhythm, making people clouded, and even if Summer Xavier revealed what she did, no one would truly believe.

This is the advantage of the internet; across a computer screen, the truth can be whatever you want it to be.

However, Skylar Hughes had calculated everything very carefully, but overlooked human hearts.

Melody Mercer was caught and interviewed by reporters in the detention center.

Skylar Hughes was waiting for Melody Mercer to denounce Paige Sterling, but instead, Melody Mercer sold her out.

Said she also liked Seth Shaw and, to get Seth Shaw, incited her to go against Paige Sterling, snatch Seth Shaw, and even to throw acid at Paige Sterling, all were instigated by Skylar Hughes.

Melody Mercer wasn’t foolish; she held onto backups during her cooperation with Skylar Hughes and now revealed all evidence, shattering Skylar Hughes’s carefully maintained charitable image online into ruins.

The blow came unexpectedly, and Skylar Hughes’s previous online victim act became evidence of her deceiving the masses.

This unexpected turn caught netizens off guard.

Then, a massive uncovering operation regarding Skylar Hughes started on the internet, leaving nothing untouched.

They said you aren’t truly the Sterling Family’s stepdaughter; you were entrusted to your biological dad, and had no reason to live with the Sterling Family.

They raised you out of kindness, not raising you is just right; now they’re letting you go back to your biological father, why are you complaining?

Moreover, previously packaging yourself as a wealthy beauty, doing charity work, it turns out the charity was funded by the Sterling Family! The real young lady is out there building her own venture.

Soon, someone discovered Skylar Hughes had always lived with the Sterling Family, while Paige Sterling moved out to live alone at fifteen. How did she bully Skylar Hughes?

Clearly it’s her own home, but Paige Sterling had to move out. Who was bullied exactly?

Skylar Hughes now doesn’t dare open her phone to look at the online comments.

She thought she could keep everything in her control, but ultimately found nothing was within her grasp.

Now even the advantage of online opinion, she’s lost.

Skylar Hughes is very desperate; the more desperate she became, the calmer she felt. She absolutely cannot be beaten down .

Fortunately, no matter how rumors circulate outside, her few brainless friends remain incredibly loyal to her, like Mona Wright.

Mona Wright was even afraid that Skylar Hughes might feel down because of these rumors, so she comforted her. Updates are released by 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵✶𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✶𝓷𝓮𝓽

"It’s all Paige Sterling’s conspiracy tricks; we all know you’re innocent. You absolutely can’t let Paige Sterling’s sinister methods defeat you. You must stay strong."

Skylar Hughes gave a resolute smile, "I understand, I won’t just fall , I will not admit defeat."

Mona Wright breathed out a sigh of relief, "Come on, I’ll take you out to relax a bit. Going out and having a walk will help you forget those unpleasant things. Let’s re-energize and embrace a better tomorrow!"

Mona Wright took Skylar Hughes to the club and found there was an outdoor banquet with many people, like someone was hosting a gathering.

Mona Wright glanced over and saw Angus Langdon, immediately saying: "Isn’t that Angus Langdon?"

Mona Wright shook Skylar Hughes’s arm, "Look, Paige Sterling is also there."

Along with Angus Langdon and Paige Sterling, there were also quite a few young people from high society circles.

Although Paige Sterling was also there, which Mona Wright disliked, thinking about the possibility of connecting with other people in this gathering, Mona Wright quickly said to Skylar Hughes: "Skylar, lots of people here know you, why don’t we go over and say hi?"

Skylar Hughes also felt she should go over and greet them.

Especially when she saw Paige Sterling among them.
