Suddenly, the screen moved and got stuck.
Beinice got up to adjust it and was hit.
“How come you’re getting worse with age, you can’t even tune in a news?” Brangelina stood and looked at him unhappily.
“Big sister, it’s good to have some signal in this sea.” Beinice squatted down and continued to tune the screen, frowning as he did so, “These two launches concern Paige, I’ll get it right.”
“It doesn’t matter if the Presidency gives up on Paige or not, I’m worried that this girl is too responsible and willing to go into a cage, I don’t know how she is now.”
Brangelina said, turning her eyes to the side.
Blanca stood on the side, one eye looking out of the window, not knowing what she was thinking, her face stony.
The speedboat continued to rise and fall on the sea.
…
Across the country, inside one of the big, opulent families, the TVs were all turned on and the news cameras shot straight to the launch.
Pretty much the same conversation was going on within each family.
“What do you guys say, will Enrico and Rafael still bail on Paige this time?”
“Rafael needless to say definitely wouldn’t dare to bail her out, he worked with Paige before just to get reelected, now that his position is secure, how can he still bail her out?”
“Enrico it’s hard to say, Paige that’s his woman, a big plutocrat even dares to do such things as rebuilding slums, it’s hard to predict when this person is crazy.”
“Even if he’s crazy, he wouldn’t lose his mind for a woman, speaking of rebuilding the slums this matter, it seems crazy, he’s also raking in the benefits.”
“Then we’ll see, this Paige, how many of us can’t sleep at night, I don’t believe her life is that big, this time she’s still not dead!”
“In fact, truly speaking, Paige has no backstage whatsoever except for a bit of man-pleasing tactics, and I don’t know what she’s doing, daring to go against so many of us.”
…
While the outside was in turmoil, the manor of The Gustin family’s villa was unusually peaceful.
Paige had been cowering in her bed, not getting out of it or catching up on the state of affairs today.
Gabriel leaned over her and stayed quietly with her, drifting off to sleep and waking up busy soothingly patting her through the covers.
“Miss, Miss …” Olivia’s voice broke the silence in the room.
The door of the room was pushed open, Olivia hurriedly walked in, saw Paige shrinking into a ball sitting on the bed, suddenly a pain in the heart, and then said, “Miss, don’t stay in bed, get up, this person is sick, and can’t stay in the room all the time, you need to bask in the sun more to do.”
Saying that, Olivia is going to come and pull her quilt.
“Olivia, I don’t want to go out.” Paige clutched the covers.
She didn’t dare to do anything right now, she knew that everyone was waiting for her to go out and confess, but if she confessed, she would have to send back the three thousand people from Wind Island, she couldn’t do that; if she didn’t confess, the public grievances in the country would only get worse and worse, and along with that, the Ferris wheel virus would spread more and more.
She no longer knew what she was doing right, she just wanted to stay in this room and not go anywhere.
“Miss, you can’t be like this, it’s useless for you to lock yourself up, young master specially sent Jaden to fetch you out, just go and take a walk.” Olivia stood by the bedside and advised her.
Hearing this, Paige raised her eyes, “Doesn’t he have a press conference now?”
Enrico didn’t have time to take a walk with her.
“Then surely when the conference is over, he’ll take you on a walkabout, so go ahead.” Olivia advised bitterly, “Don’t let down the young master’s good intentions.”
“…”
Paige didn’t move.
Olivia thought about forcing the covers back, Paige saw this and tried to pull them back again.
Olivia grabbed her hand and exerted all her strength, “What are you doing staying in bed without eating or drinking, Gabriel, come on, pull your mommy up.”
Gabriel sat on the bed and looked around, finally making the choice to help Olivia pull Paige as hard as he could.
Paige was pulled out of bed by both of them.
Olivia carried one outfit after another to Paige and finally settled on a long white dress for Paige to change into.
When Paige didn’t move, Olivia reached out to change for her.
Paige had no choice but to change into a long dress, Olivia and carefully combed her hair, want to give her a makeup, but do not have the ability, can only for her to apply a little skincare, mouth explained, “nothing nothing, now go outside have to wear a mask, can not see to put on no makeup.”
“…”
After cleaning up, Paige was pushed out the door by Olivia.
Outside the door, Jaden stood in front of the car, waiting in silence, seeing Paige come out, he hurriedly pulled open the door, “Miss, get in the car, hurry up.”
Rush what time?
Paige looked over at him somewhat inexplicably, and before she moved, Gabriel jumped in front of the car first, threw his panda backpack inside, and climbed up on his hands and knees, “I want to go too! I want to stay with Mommy!”
The sad mommy was his to guard!
Paige followed and got into the car, and Jaden seemed to be in a real hurry, pulling right out of the driver’s way and getting into the driver’s seat herself to drive off.
The need for prevention and control was advertised everywhere, but The Capital didn’t make the streets any less crowded.
People were snatching up supermarkets everywhere, three parades on one street.
Gabriel peeked out the car window and when he saw Paige’s poster being held up, he immediately turned his head and jumped into Paige’s arms, blindfolding her with his little hand, “Mommy, we’re not looking.”
Jaden pulled the car to a stop.
Paige took down Gabriel’s hand and looked up with her eyes, only to see a crowd outside, many people sitting on the ground and shouting something.
It’s a place that looks familiar to Paige.
The square where the Public Law Society used to be.
Paige once chose this place to give a speech, wanting to open the first step to rebuild the slums from here and realize her ideal, but as a result, she was caught in Gangnam Hall on the same day.
“The launch of the Gustin Group consortium is about to begin.” Jaden said as he pulled open the car door.
Enrico put the press conference here? Why?
Paige got out of the car a little confused as Gabriel stood beside her with a mask on, gripping her hand tightly, her eyes glazed over, “So many people.”
“Don’t worry miss, we’re going this way.” Jaden led the two inside.
Jaden found her a seat in the media gallery, leaning to the side.
Once she sat down, she was surrounded by Jaden with bodyguards guarding her.
Gabriel stood beside her and plopped down into her lap, his eyes darting around.
Paige looked up and saw the old public law site in front of her, its walls broken and imposing, the launch stage was long and the microphones were set up in a whole row.
Suddenly, the room was silent.
Paige turned her eyes, and saw the Gustin Group’s top executives appearing one by one under the guidance of bodyguards, with Enrico at the forefront.
Enrico was dressed in formal attire, his body was long and stood out in the crowd, he walked towards the front with a cold face.
The executives sat down one by one, with Enrico in the center.
As soon as they sat down, the media raised their hands to ask questions, and the people who had arrived on their own behind them began to shout, “Accountability! Chase the blame!”
The shouts shook countless birds and flew away.
