Chapter 88: Chapter 88
Recently, everyone online has been talking about this matter, and Paige Sterling, who is associated with Penson, is almost constantly trending.
She originally had just over ten million followers, but in just these few days, her followers have increased by over thirty million. Many foreigners have even registered on V-Blog specifically to follow her.
Paige occasionally posts small videos on V-Blog of herself making little toys.
Someone suggested she start a livestream, so she thought about it and decided she could do it if she had time.
So, Paige started doing a livestream once a week, usually from the company.
The general content of the livestreams involves teaching viewers how to use materials around them to make electronic products that can be used in daily life.
After a few livestreams, the number of people online during her streams was the highest in the streaming arena, making her undeniably the queen of livestreams.
However, no matter how good you are in this world, there will always be people who want to criticize.
Someone openly mocked Paige online: If you’re really so selfless, why don’t you reveal your core technology in your streams? Why don’t you your core technology to the country to contribute to our national research? Why hoard it for yourself and make money on the internet, you profiteer...
Usually, at this point, Paige doesn’t need to do anything; there will always be netizens who shut down this kind of nonsense.
When Julian Hawthorne came down from the 38th floor, Paige was livestreaming.
This time she was teaching viewers how to make a simple electronic window cleaning product. Google seaʀᴄh 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝘯𝘦𝘵
Although Penson’s products are already quite cheap compared to others on the market, they are still a luxury of tens of thousands for most families.
And if you can make some small electronic products yourself, you can save money and also save time on housework to do other things.
Julian poured a cup of hot water for her and stood behind her, his face unseen in the livestream. He smiled and ruffled Paige’s hair.
Paige found her long hair bothersome and had just cut it to a short style a few days ago.
Originally naturally curly, now that it’s short, the little curls are even more pronounced and look very cute, but with her aloof and cool face, it turned that cuteness into a
Many female fans are crazy about Paige’s look now and even call her ’husband.’
Julian gets jealous too; he loves to go undercover and troll these ’wife fans.’ Even after being caught by Paige several times, he hasn’t stopped.
This man is capable of being jealous of anyone at any time, turning sour on cue, just like a lemon.
And yet, when he gets jealous, he can put on a nonchalant front.
At this moment, he’s standing behind her, occasionally handing her things, his eyes scanning the livestream chat where fans are screaming as ’wife fans,’ creating a sense of hostility that even viewers across the screen can feel, let alone the employees on the seventeenth floor.
After Paige’s livestream ended, she reminded Julian, "I think you should hurry back up to your 38th floor. You’re making my employees uncomfortable."
She didn’t have many requirements for her employees, as long as they did their work well, she didn’t mind a bit of casualness at work.
But every time Julian came, the employees became very restrained.
Julian slightly raised his eyebrows after hearing Paige’s words and glanced at the Penson employees.
"Am I disturbing you guys?"
"No, no, President Hawthorne, make yourself at home..."
Julian, "See, they said no."
Julian couldn’t stay at Penson forever, so an hour later, he went back up to the 38th floor.
And not long after he returned to his office, Helen Hale came again.
As soon as Shaun Jones saw her, his scalp tingled.
"Secretary Jones, please deliver this document to Julian."
Shaun Jones asked, "What is it?"
Helen Hale said, "It’s a project I planned myself. I think it would be beneficial for the Hawthorne Group’s development."
Bypassing her superior and sending the document directly to the chairman’s office, what was Helen Hale thinking?
But this is the daughter of Apex, and Shaun Jones didn’t want to offend her, "I’ll make sure President Hawthorne reviews it."
But it was just a review. When Shaun Jones handed the document to Julian, he didn’t specifically mention it was by Helen Hale.
So Julian just glanced at it and tossed it aside, thinking that the project department was becoming less competent lately, pushing such a terrible project up to him.
While her project was ignored without a response, Helen Hale came back to Shaun Jones for an update.
Shaun Jones politely said, "I’m sorry, Miss Hale, President Hawthorne did not approve the project."
Helen Hale’s eyes widened.
"Why wasn’t it approved? Doesn’t Julian see the potential of this project?"
Shaun Jones, "That... I don’t know, I’m just the messenger."
Helen Hale couldn’t believe it; her project was clearly so good, it could clearly impress Julian Hawthorne, making him see her talent and ability, so why didn’t Julian approve it?
Was it because she was the one who created it, and no matter how good it was, it wasn’t valued?
Helen Hale held back her tears, determined not to give up !
She planned to find Julian Hawthorne to explain clearly.
"Is President Hawthorne in the office now?"
Secretary Jones nodded, "But President Hawthorne doesn’t want to see anyone today."
Helen Hale pretended not to hear Shaun Jones’ words and rushed straight toward the office.
Shaun Jones held her back tightly, "Miss Hale, you can’t go in, President Hawthorne is busy!"
"Get out of my way, I want to discuss this project with Julian personally. He must not understand it yet, which is why it wasn’t approved. If you block me now, you’re delaying the Hawthorne Group’s future, do you even realize that? Can you bear that responsibility? Move aside!"
The secretaries here at Hawthorne, each more unaware than the last, even dared to block her, the future mistress of Hawthorne.
Shaun Jones, "Miss Hale, if you really believe in this project, you should talk to the general manager of the project department, not directly approach President Hawthorne."
Helen Hale scoffed, "I know Julian best in this company. How can I let others see such a confidential project?"
Shaun Jones, "...", You’re impressive, nothing more to say.
And then Helen Hale suddenly looked at Shaun Jones with suspicion, "Why do you keep stopping me from seeing Julian? Tell me, have you been bought by that Paige Sterling?"
The more Helen Hale thought about it, the more convinced she became, "What did Paige offer you, Secretary Jones? As the chief secretary by Julian’s side, you actually got bribed by a woman? You’re betraying Julian, you know? If Julian finds out, he won’t spare you, but if you’re honest now, I can plead for you with Julian!"
Secretary Jones was speechless, wondering if there was ever a time when Helen Hale was actually sensible?
He truly understood why Julian Hawthorne didn’t want to deal with Helen Hale.
With such a convoluted thought process, if you gave her an inch, she’d open a mile-long market.
"Miss Hale, please be cautious with your words, I’ve always been loyal to President Hawthorne."
"Then don’t block me!"
"It’s my job, please cooperate, thank you."
No matter how furious Helen Hale was, there was nothing she could do with Shaun Jones’s obstinacy. She had to leave angrily in the end.
When she becomes the mistress of Hawthorne, she definitely won’t let Shaun Jones off! Hmph!
