Chapter 356: Chapter 356

"That’s right, it’s all your fault. Our Teacher Sterling never hits anyone lightly..."

The person saying this felt a bit guilty inside. Paige Sterling not only hits people lightly; when she hits someone, it often makes the news.

However, in front of outsiders, Teacher Sterling is, of course, perfect. They have to maintain Teacher Sterling’s image as a noble people’s teacher.

Those who have been hit know it well enough themselves.

Looking at this group of people who seemed brainwashed by Paige, only speaking in her favor, Skylar Hughes really felt like the whole world had gone mad.

"Are you all blind? Didn’t you see her suddenly rush over and hit me?"

Skylar Hughes now didn’t feel the urgency to leave anymore. She had to tear off Paige’s hypocritical mask in front of these students.

"Fine, since you all think I did something wrong, then Paige, let me ask you, what did I do?"

Seeing Paige not speaking, she pressed, "Speak up, what did I do that made you suddenly rush over and hit me?"

Paige’s eyes were still so cold, cold enough to make a person shiver.

"Are you sure you need me to explain?"

Skylar Hughes’s body shuddered uncontrollably.

Could it be that Paige really found out?

Impossible, Paige simply assumed all the bad things that happened were due to her, she definitely didn’t know she did it, so she couldn’t feel guilty, she couldn’t let Paige spot a flaw.

"Paige, are you trying to blame me again for the bad things happening to you, saying I harmed you? How do you have the nerve?"

Skylar said coldly, "My mom’s child was lost because of you, the marriage collapsed too. My child was lost because of you, the marriage also fell apart. I’m already , and you’re still not satisfied. How much worse do you want to ruin me before you will let go?"

"Your child and your marriage, what do they have to do with me? You feel the whole world owes you because of your own incompetence?"

Skylar shouted hysterically, "It was your sabotage that made me lose my child and marriage! Paige, you owe me in the first place!"

Paige retorted, "So that’s the purpose of everything you did today?"

She approached Skylar, her face frost-like.

"You blame your life’s misfortunes on people superior to you, thinking others’ excellence was stolen from you? No wonder your life turned out this way, no wonder you treat human lives like grass..."

"But let me tell you, there’s no one in this world who owes you, and no one naturally must bear your so-called revenge. I hit you just to tell you..."

Paige coldly uttered three words, "You’re finished."

She would no longer give Skylar Hughes any consideration; today was her last time hitting Skylar Hughes.

Skylar panicked a little, "Paige, are you out of your mind? Don’t you think of pinning today’s events on me, let me go..."

Paige didn’t let go of Skylar, but instead looked at the hotel general manager, "Since you mentioned it, the swimming pool’s electric equipment was tampered with, causing the leakage, so call the police."

Skylar struggled even more frantically, no, she had to leave the country, she already had her plane ticket.

If she could just get out of the country, she still had a chance; she couldn’t be taken away by the police...

But no matter how she struggled, she couldn’t break free from Paige’s grip. Skylar shouted, "Paige, let go of me! What right do you have to hold me!"

"Until the police uncover the truth, everyone in the hotel is a suspect, including you, so naturally, you can’t leave."

"You’re talking nonsense, what does this have to do with me? Paige, you have too many enemies, someone wants you dead, how can you blame me? Let me go, I want to go home!"

Before long, the police arrived.

The nature of this incident was particularly bad, and since it involved Paige Sterling, a top talent in the country, the police naturally had to investigate carefully.

So the police locked down the hotel, and now Skylar couldn’t leave even if she wanted to.

And a group of people waited in the hotel lobby for news.

Skylar’s heart was becoming increasingly cold.

Finished, she’s finished, if the investigation continues , she’s truly done for.

She couldn’t just sit and wait to be captured, she had to get away! Had to!

Skylar looked around; each exit was guarded by police, there was no way out.

Skylar gritted her teeth and stood up.

A policeman immediately asked her, "What are you going to do?"

Skylar said quietly, "I want to go to the restroom."

The policeman followed Skylar from behind because there were no female officers present today, so this male officer could only wait outside the restroom for Skylar.

Once inside the restroom, Skylar began checking for other exits.

But looking around, there was only a small window, and it was high up, making it difficult to climb up to.

The male officer waited outside for a long time, and Skylar still hadn’t come out. He called a few times, but there was no response, raising his suspicions. He entered the restroom, checking each stall, but found no trace of Skylar.

The male officer’s expression immediately changed, and he quickly took out his radio and called for backup.

Soon after, the police intensified their efforts to find Skylar in the hotel, eventually discovering through surveillance that she had already escaped.

The police quickly dispatched more personnel to pursue her.

The students in the lobby were angry upon hearing that Skylar had escaped.

"She claimed to be innocent, so why run if she’s innocent?"

"This woman is so vicious! She actually wanted to harm so many of us!"

"This time she failed to harm us, but next time she will certainly target Teacher Sterling. Such a person would even dare commit murder, so what wouldn’t she dare do? Now that she’s on the run, isn’t Teacher Sterling in grave danger?"

Previously, they had only heard about the things Skylar did, but hadn’t seen it firsthand, so they didn’t feel much about her.

However, today, they almost became victims of Skylar’s harm.

They had gained a deeper understanding of this person’s viciousness, feeling that leaving such a person outside would make Paige in danger, lurking in the shadows with eyes fixed on Paige.

Everyone was very worried, but Paige remained calm and composed.

Skylar running away rather than staying proves her guilt, and now she’s also fleeing justice, compounding her crimes.

The police were committed to the search, and eventually, Skylar naturally couldn’t escape.

She didn’t even make it to the airport before being caught by the police.

Nonetheless, Skylar strenuously denied any wrongdoing, claiming she was merely rushing to catch her flight abroad, worried about missing the plane, which was why she fled.

It was always , Skylar never learned her lesson, always thinking she was the smartest and others the dumbest, always thinking her plans were flawless, and no one could find anything out.

But in the end, the police discovered everything.

This time, however, it wasn’t Skylar herself who took action, nor did she hire someone else.

She used a child to do it.

This child was the general manager’s son, who often came to the hotel to find his father.

The child was ignorant, found everything amusing, and was quite mischievous. Given that he’s the general manager’s son, he could move freely within the hotel, and Skylar took advantage of this fact to coax the manager’s son into tampering with the pool’s power equipment.
