Chapter 422: Chapter 422
She just doesn’t believe that by insisting she didn’t poison, Paige Sterling could do anything to her.
"I say you did it, then you did it." Paige Sterling pressed closer to Nanny Sawyer, "Don’t say you actually did it, even if you didn’t, if I say you did, then you did."
Then Paige Sterling summoned a robot, issued a command, and the robot started scanning the dishes on the table made by Nanny Sawyer, spouting out a bunch of technical terms.
Nanny Sawyer’s face grew increasingly unpleasant.
Paige Sterling smiled at her, "It seems Nanny Sawyer understands these professional terms, so whether there is poison or not, I guess I don’t need to say anymore, right?"
To say she wasn’t afraid would be a lie, but Nanny Sawyer would never admit it, "I don’t understand what the young lady is talking about; I just heard the young lady often has insomnia, so I put a small amount of sleeping pills in there to help you sleep, that’s all."
"Don’t pretend to be stupid with me. I have little patience for old people. Although these things are in small doses, they are not easy to detect when inhaled in the body for a short period. But over time, it can lead to mental disorders, irritability, and easy anger. It seems Mrs. Hawthorne ended up like that because of you. Do you think if Mrs. Hawthorne knew, would she still defend you wholeheartedly?"
Nanny Sawyer’s eyes changed, then she sneered, "Didn’t the young lady just say? If you say there’s poison, then there is poison. Since everything is up to the young lady, what else is there to say? I’ll let the young lady decide. After all, for people like us, whether we live or die is up to the young lady, right? I just hope the young lady can spare the poor lady and not hurt her any longer..."
This performance, had it not been so shameless, Paige Sterling would have wanted to give her full marks.
"Alright, since that’s the case, I can only send you to the military department for a thorough examination. I believe with their methods, no matter what secrets you have, they will unearth them. For example... your son who has faked his death for many years, and your lover hiding away conducting some shady research..."
Julian Hawthorne found out that the young delinquent stabbed by Jared Sullivan was declared dead soon after being sent to the hospital, then quickly cremated, so even Mrs. Hawthorne never saw his body.
Normally, when a person dies, at least a funeral should be held, which would take four or five days before burial.
But the young delinquent died and was immediately cremated, how could that not arouse suspicion?
In addition, the military previously investigated Nanny Sawyer and discovered some suspicious movements, which led them to uncover some long-buried truths.
The young delinquent not only didn’t die, but now he should be living quite well. The military hasn’t found his exact whereabouts yet, but Paige Sterling thought he must be with his biological father.
Nanny Sawyer stared wide-eyed at Paige Sterling, her body involuntarily trembled, "Young lady, I don’t understand what you’re saying!"
At this point, playing dumb was the only option.
"No worries, at the military department, you’ll understand."
Nanny Sawyer’s body trembled again, she was still afraid, that was the military department, representing the nation’s highest armed force. Individuals naturally feel awe and fear in front of the state machinery.
Nanny Sawyer was no exception. After all, no matter how cunning and sly she was, she was just an ordinary person with low intelligence, how could she oppose the state machinery?
Nanny Sawyer tried to find any sign of casualness or evidence of bluffing on Paige Sterling’s face, yet Paige remained calm, giving nothing away.
Nanny Sawyer recalled that Paige Sterling had once sent Alisa to the military department, and Alisa was the heiress of The Tell Group, yet the military showed no mercy, let alone her.
Moreover, after Alisa was caught, more complications emerged, even implicating the chairman of The Tell Group.
One could imagine, if she really went to that place, all the secrets she had been hiding would be completely exposed.
Her son, her lover...
"Young lady, you can’t do this to me, I haven’t done anything! Mrs. Hawthorne had me by your side only to take care of you, you can’t treat me , otherwise, Mrs. Hawthorne won’t let you off..." now her only recourse was this empty threat, hoping that Mrs. Hawthorne would have some influence.

Paige Sterling laughed lightly, clearly not considering Mrs. Hawthorne.
"Don’t be , I’m quite courageous, ordinary people can’t scare me."
Nanny Sawyer cast a pleading look at Julian Hawthorne, "Young master, are you really going to stand by and watch the young lady frame me ?"
Julian Hawthorne replied aloofly, "Your son, I investigated him personally, this is the DNA test result."
Nanny Sawyer sat down heavily, "Even, even if he is my son, even if my son is still alive, it doesn’t prove anything..."
Paige Sterling said, "Since it doesn’t prove anything, what are you afraid of?"
Nanny Sawyer suddenly realized, yes, what is she afraid of?
Her fear was her biggest flaw.
Nanny Sawyer felt a chill all over her body, suddenly realizing that returning to the country was like walking into a trap, perhaps even from the beginning it was Paige Sterling’s trap.
Surely she knew what her son and lover were up to.
Even though Nanny Sawyer wasn’t clear on what exactly they were doing, she knew it couldn’t be anything good, or why would they be hiding?
If she fell into the hands of the military, it would be over.
"Young master, you can’t do this to me, I’ve been taking care of Mrs. Hawthorne since she was young, I took care of you when you were little too..."
Julian Hawthorne looked coldly at Nanny Sawyer, "Oh, I also know that your son doesn’t seem to be your ex-husband’s biological child."
Nanny Sawyer stared wide-eyed at Julian Hawthorne, not expecting him to find even that out.
In other words, if Julian Hawthorne could find it, wouldn’t the military department be able to as well?
Now Paige Sterling belonged to the military, everything she did was tied to the military, and she ran to Paige Sterling herself, it was simply seeking death.
Nanny Sawyer shivered in fear, "Young master, young lady, if you don’t like me, I’ll leave right away, just let me go, I haven’t done anything..."
Paige Sterling’s expression remained indifferent, looking at Nanny Sawyer in her utmost humiliation, not feeling any pity for her at all.
"I said, don’t play pitiful in front of me. For me to confront you, I have a complete understanding of all your details. Where your son is, who his biological father is, what they are doing, and where the medications injected into Mrs. Hawthorne by Julian come from, we all know. Originally, there were no witnesses, but you brought yourself to us, so there’s nothing we can do..."
Nanny Sawyer’s body trembled, realizing Paige Sterling and Julian Hawthorne already knew so much.
Paige Sterling stood up at this moment and walked to Nanny Sawyer’s side, squatting down to be at eye level with her.
"When Mrs. Hawthorne was young, you were the one whispering in her ear, inciting her to be rebellious and elope, weren’t you?"
Nanny Sawyer trembled, saying nothing.
Paige Sterling coldly said, "Speak."
Nanny Sawyer nodded tremblingly, "Yes, it was me."
