The Psychotic Girl’s Revenge

Paige covered her mouth with her hand and lowered her voice, “We have a bet, don’t we? Asking you would violate the bet.” Of course, it wasn’t really about the bet; she simply preferred to handle things herself wherever possible. Besides, in her view, his non-interference was the biggest kindness he could show.

“You-” Enrico was clearly choked.

The next moment, his tone turned ominous, “Paige, don’t test my limits.”

“Joss?” The principal and professors were looking at her, waiting for her to speak.

“I’ll talk to you later,” Paige whispered, pulling out her earphones. She looked up at the school leaders, “Is there a problem?”

“I have a problem,” Carl said coldly, “Principal, professors, are the sponsorship documents really complete?”

“They are very complete,” the principal said, nodding reluctantly. He and Professor Hodge both didn’t want to approve Peak Club. First, because Paige was too troublesome as a student, and second, because approving a club to compete with Elite Club would offend the wealthy families behind Elite Club, which wasn’t worth it.

“I heard Nick’s family is in the business of making fake documents. Leaders, please check carefully so you’re not fooled,” Carl said mockingly.

“Paige was right. Elite Club is Elite Club, even their dogs bark louder than others,” Nick retorted.

Other students couldn’t help but laugh at his words.

Carl’s face turned icy, ready to retort but held back by Rachel.

The school leaders meticulously checked the documents but were unsure what to do. “We need time to verify the authenticity of these sponsors…”

Paige’s voice cut through coolly, “Sorry, I don’t have time for you to verify them. I’ve invited all the heads of the sponsoring organizations here. You don’t need to check the stamps, just check the people.”

“What?” The school leaders were taken aback.

“Bang.” The door was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a group of formally dressed men and women walked in. Leading them was Manager Cole from Heaven Hotel. Many people recognized him; there was no way this could be faked.

As the group walked in, they bowed respectfully to Paige as they passed, saying, “Miss Lautner.”

“Miss Lautner.”

“Miss Lautner.”

Paige nodded slightly.

The eight top students sat to the side, looking at Paige in astonishment. Wasn’t she just an ordinary student? How could she command such respect from these people?

Rachel frowned slightly, looking at Paige in confusion. How had she managed this?

“Mr. Principal, long time no see. Need to verify my identity?” Manager Cole smiled as he stepped forward to shake the principal’s hand.

The principal quickly stood up and smiled, “Manager Cole, you’re joking.”

Professor Hodge stood up as well, “Quite a surprise. Why would the Lautner family sponsor a student organization? Does this Joss have a significant background?”

This was a loaded question. If Paige had a significant background, then she wasn’t just an ordinary student, and the other ordinary students wouldn’t believe in or admire her anymore.

“You’re overthinking it, Principal. Miss Lautner has nothing to do with the Lautner family. I just admire her for her courage and determination, so I wanted to support her,” Manager Cole said.

Professor Hodge was defeated by this answer.

The authenticity of the sponsors was unquestionable. The principal politely said, “Please, everyone, have a seat.”

“Alright, continue with your meeting. We’re looking forward to seeing a dynamic new student organization,” Manager Cole said as he and the others moved to the side.

The students whispered.

“That’s the CEO of DataMap. Their president is extremely secretive, never even visits the company but still runs it successfully from behind the scenes.”

“And that one, isn’t she the top buyer for Memory Art Gallery? Any painting she buys skyrockets in value. She says her boss instructs all her purchases.”NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.

“It’s strange, all these big shots are so secretive. How did Joss get their sponsorship?”

Nick, hearing the discussions, was extremely pleased. He shouted, “Principal, can we get approval now?”

The principal glanced at the Elite Club members before saying, “Joss, the nature and purpose of your proposed student organization are identical to those of the Elite Club. Technically, only one organization of this nature is allowed.”

“It’s different. Peak Club doesn’t require three generations of family background. Intelligence is enough,” Paige said coolly, twirling her earphone cord.

“If there are issues with the membership rules, we can have the Elite Club refine them. There’s no need to create another identical student organization and waste resources,” Professor Hodge said, frowning.

The principal looked at the sponsors sitting on the other side and said with a smile, “How about the school and the Elite Club discuss revising the membership rules? If we can’t reach an agreement, we’ll then decide on Peak Club’s establishment.”

“Principal, are you trying to delay things?” Paige paused her fiddling with the earphone cord and gave a mocking smile.

“How dare you speak to the principal like that? What do you mean?” Professor Hodge glared at her.

“If the membership rules for the Elite Club could be changed, they would have been by now. Discussing it for another month, then discussing for another month or two…”

Paige sat there, her gaze icy as she stared at the school leaders, “Do you really think students’ time is so worthless?”

Seeing her aggressive stance, Professor Hodge slammed his hand on the podium, “Stop being so arrogant!”

Paige remained unfazed, “There must be a resolution for Peak Club in this meeting today.”

“Stubborn and ungrateful!” Professor Hodge was so furious he stood up, “How can we allow a student with such a lack of decorum to manage an organization? Get her out of here!”

The principal was about to agree when Paige sneered, “Once I leave this room today, how the public opinion will turn is no longer in your control.”

“Are you threatening me?”

Paige stood up, walked forward, and slammed both hands on the podium in front of Professor Hodge.

“Bang.”

The sudden action made Professor Hodge jump in surprise, instinctively stepping back.

“Hmph.” Paige gave a scornful laugh, “If the proper channels don’t work, then I’ll…”

Professor Hodge pointed at her, “Look at her Such a student… We absolutely cannot approve Peak Club!”

“Fine. Then you personally throw me out and tell the thirty thousand students that you refuse to approve Peak Club, that Capital University has never been about equality,” Paige said with a smile. “Do you believe that the students will go on strike tomorrow?”

“Trying to incite a student strike?”

“This isn’t incitement; it’s protest. Protest against the lack of fairness at Capital University,” Paige continued.

“You…”

The principal was deeply troubled. This troublesome student was causing more and more unrest. From Senator Clarke’s departure to the shock caused by ‘The Pyramid’, now almost all the ordinary students at the school supported her. If a student strike really happened, his career would be over.

As the principal was unsure how to proceed, Paige slid a document across the table and said with a smile, “Principal, let’s save some time and approve Peak Club.”

“But…”

“If you believe that only one student organization of this type can exist, then let the two organizations compete and dissolve the loser.”
