Chapter 354: Chapter 354
So all her current misfortunes were caused by Paige Sterling, why does Paige still get to be so glamorous?
Skylar Hughes planned to leave the country today. Once abroad, she’d start anew, and no one would know her past, Paige’s reach would not extend overseas.
She believed that in a broader world, with her talent, she would certainly be favored by more people.
By then she would marry a rich foreigner and, once things had calmed down at home, she would return in style and have a showdown with Paige Sterling.
But now, given that she’s seen Paige again, she must teach Paige a lesson before going abroad.
Otherwise, how could she justify the lengths Paige forced her to go, crossing the ocean?
Skylar Hughes thought carefully for a while before figuring out how to teach Paige Sterling a lesson.
These are all Paige’s students. As the teacher responsible for bringing them out to have fun, if anything happens to them, Paige would also be held accountable, right?
This time she’d make it big, directly causing several fatalities for Paige to see.
So many lives, pillars of the country’s future, but can anyone still save Paige?
Plus, Paige, aren’t you so capable? Why couldn’t you detect the impending student accident to save them?
In the end, enraged parents and netizens will show Paige what hell looks like.
Even if Paige finds out it was done by her, so what? She’d have long gone abroad, what could Paige do to her then?
Skylar Hughes smiled and walked out of the room.
At this moment, by the swimming pool, Paige Sterling was sitting by the side video-calling Julian Hawthorne.
Seeing the group of shirtless men behind Paige on the call, Julian’s face somewhat soured.
"I’m having an allergic reaction, feeling nauseous."
His tone sounded weak, pitiful.
Seeing his pale complexion and hearing him dry heave several times, Paige became concerned, "You’re in the office, how did you suddenly become allergic?"
Julian said, "Maybe I touched the cup Secretary Jones handled."
Outside, the blamed Secretary Jones sneezed harshly.
Paige said, "Secretary Jones is so inconsiderate, how could he give you a cup he handled?"
"Yes, he’s really not considerate."
Paige, "In an hour, I’ll come to the company to find you, okay?" Tʜe sourcᴇ of thɪs content ɪs 𝗻𝗼𝘷𝗲𝗹•𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮•𝕟𝕖𝕥
Not even thirty minutes, Julian couldn’t wait a minute, but as soon as Paige comforted him, he was happy, though he still bargained with her.
Paige, "Twenty minutes won’t do, the students are very enthusiastic."
Most importantly, these students were very dear to Paige’s heart; soon they’d enter society, and although they may pursue research paths, they wouldn’t be meeting as often in the future.
Moreover, Paige had promised them she’d stay with them for a group photo.
"Be good, I’ll definitely come earlier today."
Julian liked her pampering him, revolving around him, eventually agreeing reluctantly.
After hanging up, Paige glanced towards the swimming pool.
At the moment, a group of boys and girls were playing games in the swimming pool, the atmosphere was great.
If it weren’t for Julian’s strict order not to get into the pool in public, Paige would have wanted to join in.
Just as Paige watched the students play, an alarm on her body suddenly went off.
"Alarm, alarm, massive current detected 200 meters at southeast 35 degrees, for detailed data analysis please..."
Paige’s complexion changed immediately, she stood up and walked to the edge of the swimming pool.
The closer she got, the more urgent the alarm became because the current was continuously approaching the swimming pool.
A female student in the water saw Paige and said with a grin, "Teacher Sterling, what’s up? Come down quickly."
The girl reached out to Paige as if to pull her into the water.
Paige went along, pulled her onto the poolside.
The girl was startled and before she could speak, Paige shouted toward the swimming pool, "Everyone get up here, right now!"
Her voice was surprisingly loud, as if amplified, echoing throughout the swimming pool.
Moreover, her speech was rapid and weighty, with such a serious expression that it scared everyone in the pool.
Everyone looked towards her, confused.
Someone reacted and asked, "Teacher Sterling, what’s up? It’s fun in the water, come down."
"Get up here! Right now, no talk!"
Paige issued such baffling commands that no one understood why, so barely anyone moved in the swimming pool.
Time was running out, Paige was too lazy to waste words with them, she directly activated her rescue equipment.
Then the next moment, those in the swimming pool saw numerous tentacles suddenly sprout from Paige’s body.
These tentacles rapidly stretched and grew thicker, soon transforming into hands, almost within three seconds, lifting everyone out of the pool and tossing them onto the ground.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"Whoa, what kind of divine magic is this from Teacher Sterling?"
"My Teacher Sterling is a person ascending to the heavens!"
"Seeing Teacher Sterling every day keeps making me feel like I’m living in a sci-fi movie..."
They already knew Paige was amazing, after all, they’d witnessed so many of her high-tech gadgets, though usually through TV or phone screens, since Paige seldom showcased them at school, so witnessing it live, in a sci-fi scene, this was the first time.
It was simply too astonishing.
The place erupted in screams, everyone crowded around Paige.
Paige had just retracted her rescue device when, the next moment, she was lifted atop a wave of people, dropped down, and thrown up again...
Quite a while before everyone calmed down, recalling Paige’s strange actions earlier.
In their eyes, Paige was normally very serious and cold, although the impression of seriousness and coldness created a cute contrast effect, yet she was indeed very serious and cold.
She held the most dazzling aura but was also the most low-key person, usually not flaunting her high-tech in public.
So, Paige’s actions just now certainly weren’t merely to showcase her high-tech.
Someone asked, "Teacher Sterling, what happened earlier? Why did you suddenly get us all onto the shore?"
Paige’s expression was calm, "Go find the staff and have them bring a voltage tester."
The students looked at each other, then several other teachers came over, "Teacher Sterling, what’s up?"
Paige looked toward the swimming pool, "It’s leaking electricity."
Immediately, there was a sound of collective gasping nearby.
"Impossible, I was just in the water and nothing happened..."
"Yeah, this hotel’s safety measures are quite comprehensive; it’s unlikely for an accident like electricity leakage to occur, right?"
Some students didn’t believe it and wanted to test with water, but Paige jerked them up, "Want to die!"
Paige’s expression was icily severe, making people involuntarily believe what she said.
