The Psychotic Girl’s Revenge

Upstairs, Jaden watched, perplexed. “Boss, could she really be?”

“The current generation of the Lautners has no daughters,” Enrico replied coldly. His father had once considered a marriage alliance with the Lautners, only to find out there were no daughters in this generation.

Shocked, Jaden asked, “Then why would she dare to lie like this?”

Enrico snorted, “If she dares to lie, she’ll have to face the consequences herself. None of my concern.” He turned and walked away, clearly in a bad mood.

Jaden couldn’t understand why Enrico was so displeased. Was it because the woman had dared to tell such a monumental lie without invoking his name for support?

Silently, Jaden followed.

Suddenly, Enrico stopped in his tracks, glancing back at Jaden with a cold stare. “Why are you following?”

Jaden was puzzled.

“Keep an eye on her. If she gets hurt, you won’t need to appear before me again.”

With a stern expression, Enrico walked away.

Jaden felt an unprecedented sense of confusion. Wasn’t the boss upset because of her? Why was he now asking him to help?

In the glamorous hall, the atmosphere of the birthday banquet had completely dissipated. People stood together whispering, speculating whether Paige was truly a descendant of the Lautners.

Paige stood casually, indifferent to the whispers around her.

Molly, however, remained confident.

Jaden discreetly mingled among the guests, observing the situation.

After a while, someone hurriedly entered from outside, followed by a large contingent of security guards who swiftly took control of the entire venue.

Next, a middle-aged man in a suit emerged from among the guests. He appeared to be the person with the most authority at the Heaven Hotel. His expression was stern as he spoke, “I received a report that someone here is impersonating a descendant of the Lautners. Who is it?”

Molly smiled and stepped aside, casting a glance at Paige. “Manager Cole, take a good look. Is this person a Lautner?”

Upon hearing this, Manager Cole looked at Paige and replied coldly, “Don’t joke around. The Lautners are accustomed to living in the south and would never come to the Capital. If you dare to impersonate a Lautner, you’re asking for trouble.”

Paige stood there, twirling the bracelet on her wrist, her voice cool and deliberate. “Indeed, I am not a descendant of the Lautners. I am the savior of Kevin Lautner.”

Kevin Lautner, the current head of the Lautner family.

Manager Cole laughed upon hearing this, “Your tall tales are getting more and more outrageous. You dare claim to be Mr. Lautner’s savior. Guards, take this fraud away!” Several security guards immediately moved forward upon his command.

“You dare touch me and see what happens,” Paige said calmly, giving him a dismissive glance.

“Stop acting!” Manager Cole glared at her and moved to grab her.

Jaden watched from the crowd, about to intervene, when he saw Paige calmly pick up a delicate princess Barbie doll from the six-tier cake nearby and throw it onto the floor in front of Manager Cole.

“Bang!” The Barbie doll’s head separated from its body upon impact.

“Why did you smash my doll?” Molly screamed, forgetting her elegance. It was a doll made in her image, and Molly felt like her head was exploding. Paige had done it on purpose!Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Manager Cole was about to explode. Paige stood there, looking at him, “Manager Cole, if I were you, I’d call Kevin just to be safe, to avoid ruining your future over this.”

“You’re ruining my future over a…” Manager Cole started to retort, but suddenly froze.

The Lautner family was always shrouded in mystery. Outsiders didn’t even know which generation of the Lautners was current, let alone the names of people within the family. How could this girl casually drop Kevin’s name like that? He hadn’t even realized it until now. Could it be…

Manager Cole stared at her in disbelief. After a moment’s thought, he picked up his phone and dialed. He didn’t have the direct number for the head of the Lautners, so he called a senior assistant within the Lautner family.

“Tell Kevin that I’m here to ask him repay the life-saving favor,” Paige glanced at him, calmly twirling the bracelet on her wrist.

Manager Cole relayed the message over the phone. His expression changed drastically after a brief wait. Eventually, the call was transferred, and he found himself speaking directly to Kevin.

He turned to Paige, his eyes filled with disbelief, and stuttered, “Miss, Mr. Lautner requests a video call with you.”

The entire hall erupted into murmurs of astonishment.

Molly couldn’t make sense of the situation. Why did Manager Cole actually believe Paige’s blatant nonsense?

“Okay,” Paige said curtly. She glanced at Molly again, “But no one here is allowed to leave.”

“Understood, I’ll immediately instruct security to surround the venue,” Manager Cole replied hastily.

What was happening? Molly was utterly perplexed. How did Manager Cole end up believing Paige’s fabricated story?

Paige was escorted by Manager Cole into Molly’s dressing room. A large screen was pulled down, and a video call was initiated. Once the setup was complete, Manager Cole and his team exited the room.

The lights gradually dimmed. The projection screen lit up slowly, revealing a luxurious and imposing study. Sitting at a mahogany desk was Kevin, the current head of the Lautner family, a handsome man in his thirties.

Upon seeing her, Kevin smiled warmly, “Paige, I knew it was you. You actually left Wind Island.”

The Lautner family was extremely mysterious to the outside world, yet internally fraught with continuous power struggles. Last year, Kevin was pushed into the sea by his own uncles, Paige rescued him.

The slums were practically filled with people who were incapable of self-care, without any resources. If not for Paige’s assistance, he would have died long ago. Later, on Wind Island without network coverage, Paige had assembled a satellite phone to contact his trusted aides, allowing him to return to the Lautners, sweep aside his enemies, and take the place as the head of the family.

Therefore, he owed Paige a life-saving debt.

Paige stood before the makeup mirror, surrounded by cosmetics that belonged to Molly. She absentmindedly picked up a lipstick, broke it in half, and tossed it into the trash. Without even glancing at the man on the video screen, she casually remarked, “I told you, I would leave Wind Island sooner or later.”

Upon hearing this. Kevin rose from his desk, respectfully bowed to her, “Paige, you saved my life, but I couldn’t rescue you from the slums. I feel ashamed.”
