The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 253

Paisley felt very tired, so she hoped that Hardy would come back to console her.

However, he hadn't come back since he left.

She called him several times, but he didn't pick up.

Paisley called Bevan, Hardy's assistant, "Where's my brother? Why hasn't he come back? I'm so tired."

"Miss Anthony, something has happened to the company, so he might not be able to go back. Please deal with the guests for him," Bevan explained.

"What happened?" Paisley asked in surprise.

"It's not convenient to talk about it on the phone. He is still trying to solve the problem. Let's talk about it after it's solved," Bevan said vaguely.

It was definitely not a small issue if Hardy had to leave the party he had prepared so much for. Paisley did not expect it to be so serious.

She was even more depressed.

This party was thrown to make her happy, but she was not in the mood at all.

This was the worst party she had ever had.

She hoped that it would end soon so that she could have a good rest.

Hayden was pacing back and forth in the Dawson family's estate in his room with a dark expression on his face.

Lucas watched him nervously from the side.

With Hayden's current state, it would definitely cause some ripples with Joseph.

Lucas was afraid that they would fight again.

After thinking about it for a while, he persuaded him, "Sir, you must not get angry when Sir Joseph comes back later."

"How can I not be angry? Look at what he did today! He hung the Burtos family's daughter up to feed the sharks and even beat people up. What the hell is going on?"

He stopped in his tracks, "He committed all these evil acts just for Paige!"

"That daughter of the Burtos family isn't a good person either. You can't blame Sir Joseph for this."

"It's not his fault. I wouldn't blame him if he did it for Paisley's sake. I would even praise him for it! But he did it for Paige... What kind of beauty standards does he have? Paisley is better than Paige in both appearances and talents!" Hayden's heart ached with grief.

Lucas plucked up his courage and said, "Miss Anderson's looks aren't any less than Miss Anthony's."

"No matter how good-looking you are, it's just an external shell. What matters is what's on the inside."

"Yes, you're right. But Sir Joseph is at his peak right now, so you should not bring up Miss Anderson later. I'm afraid that he will go against your will."

Hayden listened to him, "I understand. I won't mention her name at all. I'II have him go abroad and stay far away from her."

The sound of a car engine came from outside, and soon Joseph appeared at the door of the living room.

Upon seeing Joseph's dirty state, Hayden's eyes widened, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look like you've just come from a battlefield?"

"I was barbecuing. It's normal to get this dirty," Joseph sat down casually.

Hayden looked at the dirt stains on his clothes in disbelief, "Don't you find it disgusting? Hurry up and take a bath. Speak to me after you've showered and changed your clothes."

"Let's just talk like this. Why do you care about that? I have other things to do."

"You have other things to do? What's that?" Hayden asked.

"Private matters. Do you care about my personal affairs now?" Joseph asked.

"I'm your dad. What's the big deal if I care about your personal affairs?"

"It's better if you don't care about it. Don't you have something to say to me? What's that?"

Hayden was furious, "The Burtos family complained to me on the phone. Why did you treat their daughter like that? How can you be so lawless?"

"The Burtos family? Ask them to come and find me!"

"Aren't you ashamed of yourself for saying this? Why would they look for you? They could've hired someone to deal with you directly. They came to me on behalf of my reputation. You should control yourself!"

"It doesn't matter. You can tell them to just come to me without taking you into consideration. I can take anything," Joseph acted as if he didn't care.

"Tell me, what are you going to do? Without the protection of the Dawson family, how are you going to deal with them?"

"I'll tell them directly that what I've done so far was considered a fairly light punishment. If they dare act like that again, I'll beat both their children up till they're crippled."

Joseph's nonchalant expression caused Hayden to jump up in shock. "Did you arrange for people to attack their son, too?"

"Yes, I did it! How dare he harass my woman! He's literally looking for death. I let him off easy by crippling his hands."

Hayden gasped for breath angrily, "You rascal! You're killing me with your viciousness! Why didn't you

learn anything good? You only know how to turn to violence!"

"You mean I should watch them bully my woman and not do anything? Am I still considered a human if I do that? I might as well die!"

Seeing Joseph's stubborn expression, Hayden suppressed the insults he wanted to say.

Lucas was right. He could not scold him. If he were to accidentally bring up Paige, they would have a bad fight.

Hayden suppressed his anger and said, "Well, let's not talk about today anymore. Let's get down to business. The company has something to deal with in Australia. You go and have a look."

"Me? You trust me to go?" Joseph raised his eyebrows.

"You'll need to learn, right? Do you want to live this kind of life for the rest of your life? What will you do if I die?" Hayden asked, only wanting the best for him.

"When there is a will, there is a way. Besides, you're also going to live till you're a hundred years old, right?"

Hayden was so angry at his words that he had nothing else to say, "Alright, I've already gotten someone to book a flight for you. You are leaving tomorrow!"

"That's so rushed. Is there anything else you want to say to me?" Joseph did not object.

"No, you will go abroad and learn something out of it. Don't mess around. By the way, I will arrange for

someone to go with you."

Joseph got up to leave after Hayden finished his sentence. Seeing how anxious he was to leave, Hayden was a little angry, "Why are you in such a hurry to leave? Stay and have dinner with us."

"No, I can't. I ate too much barbeque just now," Joseph refused, "I'm also very dirty. I have to go back to take a bath, and change my clothes."

He was already out of the living room when he finished speaking.

Hayden was so angry that the hairs on his body stood up.

Lucas lowered his voice and said, "Miss Anderson is in the car outside."

"That rascal! He had the audacity to bring her home? I'm furious!" NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

Joseph strode out of the villa and returned to the car.

Paige fell asleep in the back seat at this moment.

He gently opened the door before got in the car. He held her in his arms and ordered Bobby, "Go back to my villa."

Seeing that he had a sullen expression, Bobby asked with concern, "What did Sir Hayden say to you?"

"He's arranging for me to go abroad!"

"Now?" Bobby was a little surprised.

"Yes, right now. He wants to send me away again!" A trace of maliciousness flashed through his eyes.

He was not a fool. There must be some other reason why Hayden suddenly sent him, an ignorant playboy, to go abroad to be in charge of the administrative affairs.

This must be because of Paige. Hayden didn't want him to be with her.

The reason behind his objection was definitely not because of Ethan and Paige's past relationship, so there must be some other reason.
