The Psychotic Girl’s Revenge

Everyone cheered each other up enthusiastically, and the atmosphere quickly returned to the camaraderie they had before the holiday. Nick stood there looking a bit glum and quietly retracted his own glass.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

“What are you doing?”

Paige looked at him.

Nick, hiding behind Rey and leaning against the buffet table, said, “Well, you’re all big shots now. I’m just the guy who makes fake certificates. I don’t deserve to clink glasses with you.”

“What are you talking about?” Rey put his arm around Nick’s shoulder and urged him forward. “Talking like that between friends? Not cool.”

“You’re unreliable sometimes, but there’s no ‘undeserving’ in Peak Club,” Carrie said, glancing at him.

Nick stood there, forcing a small smile.

“I haven’t managed you guys, but Nick has been running around for each of you. Carrie’s hot show? Nick ran for several days, tirelessly persuading the crew to review the audition video.”

Paige stood there with a serious expression, saying, “Rey was working on research, but due to limited resources, he wasn’t successful until joining the research institute where he could fully apply himself. While you were lost in your research, Nick took a temporary security job to deliver meals to you and ensure your safety.”

She listed out everything Nick had done over the past two months.

Carrie and the others looked at Nick with a new understanding; they hadn’t realized Nick had silently done so much for them in those two months.

He hadn’t mentioned a word about it.

They thought he had just been hanging around outside.

“Paige, why are you saying all this?”

Nick awkwardly scratched his head, “I don’t have the top-notch brains like you guys. I just make fake certificates and run errands.”

“You’re an indispensable part of Peak Club. Without you, there wouldn’t be these shining stars,” Paige said coolly, without much regard for others’ feelings, but it was the truth.

When she first brought Nick into Peak Club, it was because of his versatile skills-something Carrie and the others couldn’t match.

Carrie, upon hearing this, raised his glass to Nick and said sincerely, “I was wrong. I shouldn’t have said you were unreliable.”

“Nick is definitely indispensable. Without him, I wouldn’t be in Peak Club!” Rey chuckled as he hugged him.

Nick gave him a playful nudge, “You’re only staying here because of Paige. When you won your award and Paige didn’t congratulate you right away, you were sulking in the lab and got all red-eyed.”

“I was not!” Rey, caught out, was embarrassed.

“Alright, I’ve called you all back not only to celebrate but also to announce something.”

Paige’s tone turned serious, and everyone stood up straight, focusing on her.

“I’ve said before that establishing Peak Club and training all of you has a cost. Now it’s time for you to contribute.”

Paige looked at them with a cold voice, “I’m going to apply to become a legislator. I need your full support when that happens.”

Once she became a legislator, with domestic support and the Public Law Council’s influence, she could start pushing for the reconstruction of slums.

“A legislator?”

Nick’s eyes widened in shock, his voice almost breaking, “Paige, you’re not planning to become president, are you?”

Oh my god.

Paige is daring to dream that big.

“Who says being a legislator means becoming president?” Paige glanced at him lightly, “My goal is a seat on the Public Law Council.”

Everyone looked at her, dumbfounded.

This decision was unexpected for them.

“But Paige, don’t all successful legislators have backing from financial groups?” Bobby said, “Even Mr. Deleon has The Gustin Group behind him.”

What’s her background?

Heaven Hotel? But the Lautner family behind it is far from the border and unlikely to be involved.

“I don’t need any financial group support. My backing is Peak Club,” Paige said firmly.

Although Enrico had promised to support her, she had decided to rely on herself; his willingness to stay out of her way was enough.

Her calm words stirred a passionate response from the others.

Paige’s intention… is she going to face the pressure from financial conglomerates and fight for a cause for ordinary people?

The group exchanged looks, understanding the feeling.

When others don’t believe in you, and you don’t even trust yourself, Paige is telling them that they can.

And they did.

If Peak Club could support a legislator without financial backing, that would truly be something.

“Bang.”

Carrie stepped forward, gently clinking his glass with Paige’s, and said with full trust, “If Paige wants to be a legislator, then let’s do it. Peak Club will support you wholeheartedly.”

“That’s right. We have connections in all circles. We can get any votes you need.”

“Oh my god, I’m so excited. Paige becoming a legislator, and maybe even president in the future?” Mira’s eyes were full of hearts.

Peak Club is really reaching the peak!

Paige looked at them with rare pleasure; she had finally arrived at this day.

…

On the new day, after submitting her application for the legislature, Paige, with some free time on her hands, saw an advertisement for real estate by the roadside and went into the sales office.

The sales office was spacious and bright. The sales representative brought her a cup of coffee and smiled, “I’m not sure what kind of property you’re looking for. Our community is under The Gustin Group, with top-notch quality. You also know that The Gustin Group’s properties always appreciate in value. It’s definitely a great deal.”

“I know.” Paige nodded lightly.

She was in a good mood today, so she came to do some business for Enrico.

“Our community is expected to be delivered by the end of the year. There’s a building about to start pre-sales now. You need to subscribe first and then enter the lottery. Would you be interested?”

The sales representative asked with a smile.

“If I buy more, can I skip these procedures?” Paige asked.

“Uh?”

The sales representative was stunned by the unusual bargaining tactic.

Recognizing her as the prominent Capital University graduate who had once dominated the news, she wondered if founding a student organization could bring in a lot of money.

She looked at Paige’s attire, which, though not branded, seemed far from ordinary and looked customized.

Thus, the sales representative didn’t dare to be negligent and asked carefully, “How many units are you interested in?”

“I just looked. I want 100 units of the 70-square-meter ones, and also 100 units of the 100-square-meter ones. If villas are available later, I’d like to buy some of those too. For now, that’s all.” Paige said.
