The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 289

Paige looked at Joseph in surprise and said, "How is that possible? Are you playing around?"

"I'm not kidding. What if it is true? You should be prepared for any outcome, right?"

"Joseph, my mother isn't the kind of person you think she is! How could she cheat on my father?" Was Joseph implying that her mother had cheated on him behind her father's back?

Paige was unhappy.

Her mother was so gentle and noble, she knew how her mother was. How could she do such a shameless thing?

"I'm not saying that your mother cheated. I mean.." Before he could finish his sentence, she interrupted him.

"Enough! What you're insinuating is pissing me off!" She was very furious. Her face was flushed and her voice was as high-pitched as it could be.

When he saw her agitated expression, he shook his head and said, "Forget it, just treat what I said as nonsense."

"Indeed! If you dare to say those ridiculous things again, I won't talk to you!" Paige was extremely angry.

She turned her head away and ignored him out of anger.

Joseph sighed internally when he saw how angry she was.

He had asked James to send the two samples that Liam used for the test when he was on his way to pick Paige up.

One of them was indeed Paige's sample, and she really didn't have a blood relationship with her dad, just like the fake sample.

Joseph didn't know what went wrong. Had Liam's test sample been replaced by Isabella and her daughter from the very beginning?

Since the test results showed that Paige and Liam were not related, they had to make a new plan.

After Liam brought Kyrie to the hospital to get his eye treated, he immediately made a beeline home.

At home, Sophia and Isabella were anxiously waiting to hear about the outcome. When they saw that Liam was back, they immediately said, "You're back! Why are you so late?" This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

"Don't even mention it. I have the worst luck today. Kyrie got into a car accident and the other party was rude and unreasonable. They punched him after a few words. His eyes were even injured in the process! Then I was caught up in some trouble in the police station for two hours. I only came back after I dropped Kyrie at the hospital."

Isabella and her daughter were not interested in Kyrie's injury. They were only eager to know about the contract, "Then did the plan succeed tonight?"

"Partially", Liam sat down and told the whole story, "She might have taken too much of the drug. She fell asleep, so I could only get her fingerprint. Her signature might have to wait."

"So, we'll have to meet up with her again? What if she sees through our plan the next time?" Isabella asked worriedly.

"Thinking about this is giving me a headache, but what can we do?" Liam's head was pounding.

"Dad, let's find someone to imitate her signature and sign it, shall we?" Sophia proposed.

"How are you going to have someone imitate a signature? Do you think this is a joke? With so much property, the court will have to examine the handwriting. What if they see through us?" Liam was not in a good mood.

"There is no one to help her. Even if she is in court, she would lose", Sophia was not angry even though he snapped at her. She was busy thinking about the shares. As long as she could get the shares from Paige, she and her mother would have the ability to get these shares under their names.

"No, this is not a small decision. We have to make sure our plan is foolproof," Liam shook his head and rejected the idea.

"Liam, where is the contract? Let's have a look at it", Isabella proposed.

"It's in the bag. Take a look at it yourself," Liam said as he got up to take a shower.

After a few steps, Isabella's voice came from behind, "There's nothing in here."

"How is that possible?" Liam turned around in disbelief. Isabella emptied the briefcase and showed it to him, "It's true, there's nothing is inside."

"What... What's going on? I literally put the contract in the briefcase with my wallet too. Why is the bag empty now?" Liam's heart sank, "The contract and wallet in the bag must have been stolen!"

"It makes sense to steal your wallet but who would steal a contract?" Isabella asked, "Could it be that Paige took it away?"

"It's not her."

"Paige had been unconscious the whole time. When she got off the car, she was empty-handed. It would most definitely not be her."

"Who did it?" Liam frowned and thought about it. When they got into the accident, he and Kyrie were surrounded.

Someone pulled open the car door to check on Paige and called the police. The wallet and contract were probably taken away at that time.

"It must have been taken away by someone when the accident happened. D*mn it, who did it?"

"What should we do now?" Isabella asked with disappointment.

"What can else can we do? We have no choice but to make a new plan," Liam said resentfully, "This time, I have to come up with a more comprehensive plan. I have to get her signature and fingerprint at the same time."

After Paige and Joseph returned home, Paige kept silent and stayed angry. Joseph coaxed her for a while with his warm and soft voice until she was no longer angry.

It was getting late and Paige was so tired that she fell asleep in the blink of an eye.

Joseph tucked her into the bed and gently kissed her face.

After tonight's ordeal, Joseph knew Paige's sensitive spot. He couldn't mention anything negative about her mother.

If he could, he would rather not talk about the past at all.

However, he had no choice but to bring it up now. If Paige was legitimately not biologically related to Liam, Liam would treat her like scum.

Paige would definitely have a soft spot for Liam if she didn't hear of the truth. She had always been soft-hearted and kind, so she was easily taken advantage of by Liam.

Paige was lucky to have met Joseph. He made a promise to himself that he would not let anyone bully her.

He was not in a hurry to learn about Paige's true identity. He would wait until he got Paige and Liam's DNA sample to go through a new test.

Joseph picked up his phone and went to the terrace to call James, "Make a copy of that contract and send it to Liam. Mess with him for a bit."

"Mr. Dawson, what do you mean?" James did not understand what he meant.

"He seems to be very free recently. We'll just give him something to keep him busy," Joseph said with a sneer.

"Arrange for someone to copy the contract and send it to Liam tomorrow. We'll mess with him. Hopefully, we'll get to scare him off his guts. This way, he wouldn't have so much time to plot something against Paige."

"I see. I'II do it now," James immediately understood what he meant.

Liam's blood would be boiling soon.
