The Psychotic Girl’s Revenge

Upon hearing these words, all nine people were stunned. Bobby looked at her in a daze, “Paige, are you going to divide up Temple in Heaven and let us manage it?”

“Why, is there a problem?” Paige glanced at him and asked calmly.

“Paige, we’ve just joined. It’s not about whether people will respect us; our abilities might not even meet your standards,” Cynthia said, her timid nature showing. Though she had improved over the past three years, the weight of such responsibility still made her feel uneasy.

Shouldn’t this be a gradual process? Instead, they were being handed such a major task right from the start.

They all had their own areas of expertise, but suppressing major corporations sounded unbelievable.

“Are you scared?” Paige raised an eyebrow.

“…” Cynthia looked at her weakly, silently admitting it.

“Three years ago, when you entered Peak Club, you were the same. You hesitated, unsure if you should try or not. If I hadn’t pushed you, you would have backed down a long time ago.”

Paige, who had previously urged them to think things through, now displayed a particularly tough stance. “There are no guarantees in this world. You’ve entered Temple in Heaven, and since I’ve given you a task, you must complete it, no matter what! I don’t accept failure.”

“…” The group fell silent, but then one by one, they stood up and replied, “Understood, Paige.”

“Derrick, David, you two are experts in pharmaceuticals. Artisans have been investing heavily in medicine to regain their position. I don’t believe they have so many miracle drugs, there’s definitely something wrong. Keep an eye on them, and strike when the opportunity arises.”

Paige pushed two thick files across the smooth surface of the meeting table towards the twins, then looked at Carrie, “The Smiths family and the Grissom family need to be further suppressed. You’ve already helped me understand these two major corporations. Tiffany from the Grissom family is also involved in the entertainment industry. You’ll monitor both families.”

Paige slid another file across the table.

Carrie quickly grabbed it, nodded seriously, and joined the twins in responding, “Understood, Paige.”

“Rey, in theory, your chip research is a top priority for the country, and I shouldn’t be bothering you. But I know many corporations are eyeing the patent. Your identity is too valuable,” Paige said, glancing at the chubby Rey.

Rey, already sweating profusely despite sitting still, wiped his forehead with a tissue and smiled sheepishly, “Paige, I can’t guarantee anything else, but if we manage to develop the chip, I won’t let those corporations get it. If they try to approach me, whether through threats or bribes, it’ll be my chance to gather information.”

In turn, Temple in Heaven could continue to suppress them.

“Smart.” Paige liked talking to smart people. She slid several files over to Rey. “These corporations have been using despicable methods in recent years. Be careful.”

“Understood, Paige!” Rey’s chubby hands held onto the files.

Paige handed out more files, assigning tasks to each person.

Nick sat to her right, waiting eagerly. But as he waited, his excitement turned into disappointment, and he lowered his head, silently fidgeting with his fingers.

In Peak Club, he had always been the most unremarkable. Everyone else had an S+ IQ, while he had barely made it into The Capital University.

Suddenly, a thick file was thrown in front of him with a “thud.”

Nick looked up in shock, only to see Paige standing there, staring at him. She simply said, “Nick, just like in Peak Club, when I’m not around, you’ll be their leader.”

Nick’s eyes widened in disbelief, and he pointed at himself. “Me?”

Angie, standing beside them, also glanced at him through her black-rimmed glasses. With his laid-back, streetwise demeanor and his silver-dyed hair, it was hard to take him seriously.

Nick nearly jumped out of his seat. “I’m not capable, Paige, stop joking. I was just an errand boy in Peak Club, and in Temple in Heaven, I’m only fit to run errands.”

Leading people? He didn’t have the qualifications.

Paige acted as if she hadn’t heard him, nor did she look at him. She only addressed the others, “I acknowledge that all of you are incredibly capable and have more prestige than Nick. However, he was born and raised on the streets. Together, you haven’t faced as many dangerous people as he has. That’s something you all lack.”

“…” Nick was dumbfounded. Was he really that strong?

“Any objections?” Paige asked.

The group exchanged glances and shook their heads. Paige nodded. “Alright. Although I’ve assigned you each your tasks, you can collaborate when needed. If you can’t resolve something, consult Nick, or come to me.”

“…” Nick suddenly felt a heavy burden on his shoulders. How had he become second-in-command of Temple in Heaven?

“The file in front of you contains the names of all Temple in Heaven members, including yours. I’ve noted everyone’s personality traits,” Paige said, looking at Nick. “In addition to helping the others complete their tasks, you’ll also need to teach them how to survive in society, how to speak to people, and how to appropriately intimidate when necessary.”Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Her people were loyal and skilled, but they lacked Nick’s street smarts.

Being adaptable was often key to survival, and that was crucial.

Nick blinked at her. “Paige, I feel like you’re complimenting me, but for some reason, it sounds a little strange.”

It felt like she was scolding him.

At this, Mila, Rey, and the others couldn’t help but burst out laughing. The atmosphere around the table lightened, reminiscent of their time together three years ago.

Angie, watching Nick’s streetwise manner, shook her head. That mouth of his…

Paige ignored Nick and simply said, “Alright, today’s meeting is over. Be careful not to be tracked. Don’t come to New Rose Estate again, or this place will be exposed.”

“Paige, even Rachel doesn’t know about this place. Did you… intentionally let us find it?” Carrie asked, voicing her suspicion.

Paige smiled faintly, her answer unspoken but obvious.

Paige was, after all, Paige.

Everyone was in awe.

“Wait, Paige, isn’t suppressing the corporations the most important thing for Temple in Heaven? You’ve assigned it all to us, so what are you going to do?” Nick asked curiously.

“Me?” Paige glanced at them, her dark eyes flashing with coldness. “I’m going to focus on finding the person behind Rachel. I’m going to find my enemy.”

This mysterious figure hadn’t shown themselves yet. Until Paige uncovered and dealt with them, she wouldn’t feel at ease pushing forward with the plan to rebuild the slums.

Just like three years ago-if she hadn’t let Rachel go, she wouldn’t have ended up in such a mess. It was clear that enemies… were best dealt with swiftly. Leaving them behind only brought trouble.

“How are you going to find them?” Bobby asked, confused.

“I have my ways,” Paige replied.

Once the nine from Peak Club further suppressed the corporations’ power, and she dealt with her enemy, the rebuilding of the slums would be within reach.
