The Headline Queen: President Hawthorne is Her Die-Hard Fan!
Chapter 1: He’s Your Boyfriend
CHAPTER 1: CHAPTER 1: HE’S YOUR BOYFRIEND
Bang! A loud crash, the driver suddenly braked hard.
Paige Sterling wasn’t wearing a seatbelt, and her whole body slammed into the back of the driver’s seat, then bounced back.
Beside her, Leon Lowell and Seth Shaw were also jolted, "What’s going on?"
The driver said, "There was a rear-end collision in front, luckily there was no car behind us."
Otherwise, this sudden brake would surely have caused the car behind to keep rear-ending.
Leon Lowell went to check on Paige Sterling, but found her bright eyes full of confusion.
"Paige, are you okay?"
Paige looked at Leon, "Leon?"
Isn’t this her agent on Earth?
"It’s me, are you alright, did you get hurt anywhere?", Leon looked at her worriedly.
Paige shook her head and looked at the other frowning young man beside her.
Seth Shaw?
Isn’t this her boyfriend on Earth? The guy who used her to climb up the ranks only to cheat with Melody Mercer, delivering a fatal blow to her?
So she’s back?
After traveling to the Star Empire two thousand years into the future, she has returned—carrying a mind full of advanced scientific knowledge, back to her former home planet, back to when she was Paige Sterling.
At this time, she was still the queen of popularity in the entertainment industry, with immeasurable topics and heat surrounding her.
However, months later, she would be notorious due to Seth Shaw and Melody Mercer’s plot, leaving the entertainment industry disgraced, only to discover Seth and Melody’s affair. During a physical confrontation with Melody, she was pushed from a second-floor balcony, her head hitting a stone, and died.
Even though living on an alien planet for decades, those emotions that should have faded long ago had indeed faded.
But now, seeing the murderer who once killed her, Paige’s hatred was reignited.
Her gaze as she looked at Seth was full of icy coldness.
Seth’s frown deepened; Paige usually had a high and cold queen demeanor, always carrying this aloof expression in public.
But since they got together, Paige had never faced him with this expression.
"Paige, are you okay?"
Paige suppressed the urge to kick him down and closed her eyes, beginning to organize memories from two lifetimes, ignoring Seth.
The driver shifted the car to another lane, bypassing the accident scene.
Seth kept babbling in Paige’s ear.
"Paige, the DR endorsement is hard to come by, but you’re a popularity queen; what kind of endorsement won’t you get in the future? Since we’ve started dating, our work has kept us too busy to spend quality time together. This time, I’ve finally found some time to be with you, so just turn down this endorsement, and let’s enjoy a sweet two-person world..."
"You don’t lack an endorsement, but the company’s juniors need opportunities. Give this opportunity to the juniors, they will be grateful once they become famous..."
"I’ve already made plans; I’ll go abroad for filming soon, and I’ll take you with me. After filming, I’ll accompany you to travel around..."
...
Leon smirked and glanced at Seth.
Seth’s words seemed considerate of Paige, but upon closer reflection, they were full of traps.
Despite both being busy and unable to spend time together, why isn’t Seth canceling his work to accompany Paige, yet wants Paige to turn down the endorsement?
Know that Paige is no longer who she used to be.
Previously, Paige was a popularity queen, Seth a small fry in the entertainment circle. Considering Paige’s future, he stopped them from making the relationship public.
Yet Paige never avoided suspicion in public, being quite close to Seth, while the company hyped up Seth and Melody as a couple, leading to many netizens accusing Paige of being a homewrecker.
Moreover, Paige and the company had disagreements, causing the company to focus more resources on Seth and Melody, leaving Paige in a precarious position.
Oddly, her spirituality was passive and non-competitive; she hadn’t had noteworthy works and endorsements for a long time.
Now, a DR endorsement has finally found her, but Seth wants Paige to abandon it?
This goddamn bastard is truly conniving!
Yet Paige seemed to buy into Seth’s words, and Leon had given up persuading Paige.
He sighed inwardly, convinced Paige would follow Seth’s advice.
Unexpectedly, Paige suddenly opened her eyes, fixing a cold stare on Seth.
At that moment, Leon felt an icy breeze blowing through the car.
"Are you done talking?"
Paige spoke, her voice frigid, carrying a bit of cool laziness.
Seth smiled, reaching to encircle Paige’s shoulder, "Paige, have you agreed? I knew you would..."
Before his hand touched Paige, she suddenly leaned forward and grabbed a handful of tissue paper.
Leon asked, "Paige, why are you taking so much tissue..."
The words ’taking so much tissue’ were stretched into a long tone by Leon.
Because he saw Paige ruthlessly crumple the tissues into a ball and stuff it into Seth’s sinisterly smiling mouth.
For a moment, Seth’s expression seemed like he had eaten dog feces.
Paige didn’t even look at him, telling the driver, "Stop the car!"
The driver dumbstruck stopped the car, then watched transfixed as Paige opened the car door and kicked Seth out.
Seth was kicked to the roadside, utterly embarrassed.
Paige’s whole movement flowed seamlessly.
"Drive!"
The driver absentmindedly started the car, taking a long time to regain clarity.
Not just the driver, Leon was also taken aback, staring at Paige as if he’d seen a ghost.
"Paige, the man you just kicked out is your boyfriend..."
Paige crossed her arms, like a cold-hearted player.
"From today, he’s not. This kind of trash, the sooner kicked out, the more peace of mind."
"Are you okay?", did she hit her head that hard?
Paige stopped speaking, putting on sunglasses with a cool facade.
Leon, seizing the chance, slammed Seth, "Actually, Seth is all about deception, never deserves you; better kicked him out."
"Paige, you’re so outstanding; in the future, what kind of young handsome man won’t you find?"
"Listen to me, focus on developing your career first..."
Paige’s chilly gaze pierced Leon from behind the sunglasses.
"Do you want me to kick you out too?"
Leon remembered Paige’s intense kicking of Seth and shut his mouth.
The RV slowly drove into the underground parking garage of the Stellar Entertainment Company. Paige pushed the car door open, ready to get off, but Leon held her back, "Don’t get off yet, seems like there’s paparazzi tailing us."
Leon kept a close eye on the car following behind, then heard a bang as Paige opened the car door, stepping down and slamming the car door shut.
Her whole cool aura startled Leon.
"Paige, what are you going to do?"
