The Psychotic Girl’s Revenge

Paige stood with her hands on the edge of the conference table and turned her gaze to Enrico when she heard his words. “Do you think there’s a problem?”

Enrico raised his face to meet her gaze, his long, narrow eyes unusually deep. He didn’t speak because he couldn’t put his unease into words. He knew that every decision she made was flawless. They were already in River Town, and the force behind everything had to be caught. Letting them control Rachel in The Capital was not an option. Still…

His instincts-unease.

The room fell into silence. Nick and the others exchanged glances, wondering if there was some disagreement between Enrico and Paige.

Paige assumed Enrico was just concerned for her and said, “My teacher has lived in River Town for years. He knows it better than we do. Jeremiah’s family always goes out and returns at night, meaning their influence isn’t in River Town itself but certainly nearby. So, once we confirm it, the quicker we act, the better.”

Once they controlled Jeremiah’s family, no matter how powerful the force behind them was, she wouldn’t care. Nothing would stop her.

Nick scratched his head and spoke up. “Don’t worry, brother-in-law. We’ll be careful and make sure there’s no trace left behind.”

Hearing this, Enrico no longer voiced his concerns and simply nodded slightly.

Paige gave further instructions, and the others quickly left, leaving only Paige and Enrico in the large conference room.

Leaning against the edge of the table, Paige lowered her gaze to the man in front of her, who wore a blank expression. She gently cupped his face with her hands. “Don’t worry.”

“Wherever you go, I’ll follow,” Enrico said, his gaze serious, his youthful demeanor replaced with a resolute expression.

“Okay,” Paige replied with a smile.

Just then, the sound of bells rang from outside, one after another, resonating throughout River Town. After the bells, cheers and street vendors’ cries filled the air.

“There are a lot of activities during the wine festival. It’s going to be lively tonight,” Paige said, glancing out the window. “If everything goes smoothly, we might even have time to check it out.”

Since their last outing to the supermarket, they hadn’t had a chance to go out together properly.

…

At night, River Town indeed came alive.

A clear river meandered down from the mountains, flowing through the heart of the town. Along the riverbanks, people were competing in drinking contests, performing, and mingling. The streets were crowded with both tourists and locals. The lights shimmered, reflecting on the dark sky like a suspended black gemstone.

While River Town was buzzing with activity, the mountain top remained quiet. Sparse streetlights flickered dimly, casting a dull light. In the dim glow, the stone steps gleamed smoothly, and the trees and grasses on either side seemed caught between seasons. A gust of wind blew, sending fallen leaves spiraling off the cliff.

After a moment, a slender and sharp figure appeared on the stone steps. With neat, collarbone-length hair, a face as fair as jade, and defined features, her clear eyes gave off a pure look, but her aura was undeniably strong. The wind caught the hem of her coat, and in her hand, she firmly held a gun.

Beside her stood a tall man, his face chiseled with sharp features, casting shadows over his nose and eyes that seemed unfathomable.

Behind them was a group of stern-faced subordinates.

The wind stopped.

Paige walked steadily upward, stopping at last on the stone pavement. Ahead of her stood a tall stone-walled courtyard gate, no light escaping from inside.

Enrico stood beside her, his lips pressed tightly as he scanned their surroundings.

“Sister Paige.” Nick, Mila, and Rey emerged quietly from the woods, shaking leaves off themselves, followed by a group of their men.

Rey carried an open laptop. “Sister Paige, just a little more time, and I’ll have copied all the surveillance footage from inside.”

Earlier in the day, Nick and his team had achieved their goal. Rey hacked into the system, getting surveillance footage of every room. Jeremiah, his wife Stacie, their children, and servants were all there-fifteen people in total. Their positions were fully mapped, and it was time to act.

To prevent Jeremiah’s forces inside from contacting those outside River Town, the signals had to be jammed, and the surveillance altered to leave no trace.

“Understood,” Paige nodded.

Mila handed Paige a stack of papers. “Sister Paige, here’s a map I drew based on the surveillance footage. I’ve marked potential secret doors or hidden rooms. Be careful.”

Standing in the dark, Paige examined the paper, the details clear and professionally done.

“Thank you,” Paige said appreciatively and handed the papers to Angie for distribution. “Everyone, memorize this. Apart from capturing the people, be sure to secure and inspect any potential secret doors.”

“Yes,” they responded in unison.This is the property of Nô-velDrama.Org.

“Where are Bobby and Carrie?” Mila asked, puzzled.

“To ensure nothing goes wrong, I sent some people to guard outside River Town. Bobby and Carrie went themselves to oversee it since they were worried the others wouldn’t be thorough.”

Jeremiah’s influence wasn’t within River Town, so they needed to secure a line of communication outside.

Paige turned to Enrico, seeing him still frowning and scanning the area. He seemed even more anxious than her about this mission.

Nick stood beside Rey, watching him work on the laptop. Finally, Rey’s plump fingers finished typing, and he exclaimed excitedly, “Sister Paige, it’s done!”

Paige raised her hand, checking the time-8:33 PM.

She smiled, her eyes flashing with the cold glint of a predator. “Let’s move!”

Her enemies, who had schemed against her for years, would finally pay the price. The time for revenge had come.

At her command, the team rushed into the courtyard, swiftly surrounding Jeremiah’s home.

Paige moved forward quickly, but soon a tall figure stepped in front of her, matching her pace while staying ahead, always shielding her.

Watching Enrico’s silent back, Paige couldn’t help but smile.

As they entered the courtyard, Paige saw Angie swiftly subdue a nanny who had been playing with a child holding a lantern. Angie gagged the nanny tightly with a cloth, ensuring she couldn’t make a sound.

The child, no older than four or five, stared at the group in shock, sitting dumbfounded on the ground with wide, innocent eyes. He didn’t cry or scream, just stared at them.

Paige immediately spoke. “Unless absolutely necessary, don’t use guns.”

She approached the child, pulled him up, and handed him to Mila.

The child held onto his lantern, still staring blankly.

Understanding Paige’s intention, Mila quickly took the child aside, soothing him to keep him from witnessing what would happen next.

Inside, the house was designed in a traditional style, with wooden doors and windows still in place.
