Chapter 187: Chapter 187
Paige Sterling, that bastard! Paige Sterling is about to go crazy with anger.
He realized he was being given the cold shoulder, being isolated. Thıs text ıs hosted at 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝓷𝓮𝓽
He also found that his former buddies were now becoming Paige Sterling’s followers just to pass their exams, and they all started to study seriously one by one.
The class position was originally determined by academic performance. He watched helplessly as his friends from the last few rows were moved to the front after one exam after another, leaving him alone in the last row.
Burt Chambers suddenly started feeling empty and confused.
Those who were once just like you are now trying to distance themselves from you to improve, while you’re still just a little nobody.
Maybe he should make an effort too.
However, this thought only flashed by.
He quickly told himself he mustn’t fall for Paige Sterling’s trick! No way he should exert himself!
He must take concrete actions to resist Paige Sterling! If he wants to sleep in class, he’ll sleep; if he wants to fool around after class, he’ll fool around. In short, he must not do what Paige Sterling wants!
He even tried to bring his misguided friends back.
But as soon as he spoke to them, they all looked at him despairingly.
"Brother Burt, please, don’t talk to me, don’t distract me!"
"Didn’t we agree to be slackers for life?"
"What slackers? I’ve thought about it carefully, even God Sterling is so perfect and still works so hard, what right do I have to slack off as a little nobody? So I have to work hard!"
To show their dedication, everyone tied a white cloth around their heads with motivational quotes written in red, and all they talked about was God Sterling.
Burt Chambers, "...!", Ahhhh Paige Sterling, that cult leader! Somebody get rid of her!
Burt Chambers was so angry that he fainted, his blood pressure shooting up.
The classmates were immediately flustered, "Ahhhh Brother Burt fainted, call an ambulance!"
The class teacher personally took Burt Chambers to the hospital. After the check-up, Burt Chambers was fine, but the class teacher found that no matter how he called, there was no response from him.
He stared blankly at the ceiling.
The class teacher said anxiously, "Doctor, he must have hurt his brain, should we check him again?"
The class teacher also called Paige Sterling,
Paige Sterling came and seeing Burt Chambers in that state, said, "Maybe his brain got waterlogged, why don’t we open it up and see."
Burt Chambers, in his stupor, was startled, "I, I’m alive, alive..."
What the hell! They even wanted to open his skull! Do they have to go that far?
The class teacher patted Burt Chambers on the shoulder, "Good child, your sister is really nice to you."
Burt Chambers, "...", Such a good sister, would you like her instead?
Before leaving, the class teacher also gave him a moral boost, "Child, be strong, life is more than just the immediate trivia, there are also poetry and faraway places!"
Burt Chambers, "...", Not only is he strong, he should be considered as one of the most inspirational persons of the year while being physically challenged.
Only Paige Sterling and Burt Chambers were left in the ward.
Burt Chambers said desperately, "Dear cousin, can you just treat me like a fart and let me go?"
Paige Sterling shook her head, "Since Uncle entrusted you to me, I must be responsible for you."
She looked at Burt Chambers, seemingly smiling, but Burt Chambers felt she was smiling with malice.
"Do you feel having a sister like me is a fortune accumulated over several lifetimes? Don’t be too touched, sister will treat you even better in the future, let’s make our whole family enviable geniuses."
Being a genius is too hard, I’m begging you, please do it yourself!
"Sister, I am naturally sluggish, this path destined for the strong, is not suitable for me."
"Why not? With my guidance, this path will suit you, don’t be modest."
Paige Sterling patted Burt Chambers on the shoulder, "Sister will take you flying."
Burt Chambers silently cried for himself in his past life.
After crying, he pulled back the blanket, only to find Paige Sterling still in the ward.
She was calmly sitting on a chair peeling an apple, and when she saw his eyes all red, she smiled slightly.
"Save your tears, there will be many more times you’ll want to cry in the future."
This ferocious female demon!
He really missed the good old calm days with his sister!
"I know," Paige Sterling said, "You are actually very motivated inside, just lacking a bit of perseverance, I’ll help you, don’t be discouraged."
Burt Chambers, "Cousin, I’m not as motivated as you think, actually I just want to be a traditional slacker!"
Paige Sterling interrupted him, "Alright, I understand, now get out of bed, we’re going home."
Burt Chambers, "... I still need to be hospitalized..."
"Home," Paige Sterling looked at Burt Chambers with a death-like stare.
Struggling with his fragile body, he got out of bed and followed Paige Sterling home in despair.
Back home, Paige Sterling took out a workbook, "Do it well, I’ll check it when I return."
Paige Sterling was going to a business banquet with Julian Hawthorne today.
The place hosting the banquet had a swimming pool downstairs, where a bunch of young people were playing around wildly.
At the banquet, Paige Sterling also saw Skylar Hughes—Angus Langdon brought her.
She walked up to Paige Sterling holding Angus Langdon’s arm, "Paige Sterling..."
Paige Sterling ignored her and began her usual explanation.
"Paige Sterling, I really don’t know how those rumors started online, I didn’t do those things, I hope you can be sensible and not believe those rumors and target me."
Paige Sterling didn’t even bother to lift her eyelids, Angus Langdon seeing her attitude, said angrily, "Paige Sterling, all those things had nothing to do with Skylar to begin with, ultimately it’s you who made too many enemies that’s why people are against you everywhere. Now Skylar is even apologizing to you, don’t go too far, be satisfied."
"Move aside, I don’t talk to fools."
After saying that, Paige Sterling walked away.
Some people came up at that moment, pulling a group of young people downstairs to play.
Some came over to drag Paige Sterling.
Paige Sterling was already annoyed seeing Skylar Hughes and Angus Langdon, so she went with them.
Going down, she realized this group was having a pool party, everyone was dressed very lightly.
At this moment, a group of people in the water shouted, "Aren’t you guys saying there’ll be a swimming competition? Start it!"
Angus Langdon and Skylar Hughes also followed down.
Angus Langdon had been learning to swim recently, and he was getting somewhat good at it, so seeing this, he also wanted to try, and looked at Skylar Hughes, "You change into a swimsuit too, let’s go together, there’s good fortune if we win."
Skylar Hughes slightly lowered her head and said softly, "It’s not over yet..."
Angus Langdon was dumbfounded, "Hasn’t it been a long time? How is it not over yet?"
Skylar Hughes explained, "The doctor said I’ve been overthinking, so my hormones are off balance, and my periods are irregular..."
"Oh, oh, oh," Angus Langdon scratched his head, "then drink more hot water."
Then, Angus Langdon went by himself.
