Chapter 301
After their bathroom adventures, Paige had to lie in bed to recover, while Jospeh went downstairs in high spirits.
She laid in bed for a long time before she was fully recovered.
She squinted her eyes and giggled when she saw the ring on her finger.
She was so happy! She never thought that Jospeh would prepare such a sweet proposal for her.
She couldn't contain her joy any longer and wanted to share the news with someone, and Abbie was the best candidate to do so.
Paige immediately picked up her mobile phone and called her, "Abbie, I'm so happy today!"
"Did something happen?" She asked.
"Good news! Jospeh proposed to me!"
"No way?" Abbie was silent for a few seconds as she was surprised at this news, "When did this happen? You said yes?"
Paige told her about the whole proposal process before asking, "How can I not agree to such a romantic proposal?"
"Jospeh... This guy is not bad after all!" Abbie sighed, "You and Jospeh are progressing so quickly, and I was too surprised by his proposal! To be honest, I did not have any high expectations for him, but I'm
glad that you've found your own happiness! Congratulations, I'll treat you to a good meal when you come back!"
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Paige asked.
She felt like she was in a dream as she had agreed to such a sudden surprise without even thinking it through. Jospeh must have been laughing at her when she was crying like a fool.
"You're not stupid. How many women dreamt of finding a man to propose to them like what you went through?" Abbie felt envious of her.
They chatted for a while before Paige hung up the phone. She giggled to herself in the bedroom for a while before she changed her clothes and went downstairs.
She could smell the aroma of steak the moment she reached the stairs. Was Jospeh really making steak?
She went down to the dining room curiously.
Jospeh had already prepared the steak, lit candles, and arranged flowers on the dining table.
The steak was fragrant as she had smelt it when she was coming down the stairs. She looked at the delicious dishes on the table suspiciously.
"You're the one who made these?"
"That's right."
"I don't believe you! Why have you never shown me your cooking skills? This must be the takeout you ordered," Paige knew that Jospeh had ordered the food with her intuition.
Jospeh pulled her to the table and said, "I really made these on my own. Sit down and eat, I'm really hungry!"
Paige sat down as Jospeh poured a glass of red wine for her. He raised his glass to her and said, "Mrs. Dawson, here's my toast to you!"
She looked at his handsome face under the candlelight and raised her glass with a smile, "Mr. Dawson, you've managed to impress me again today!"
"I'll try to impress you every day from now on!”
"I'll remember what you said! I'II keep reminding you if you forget about it!" Paige clinked her glass with his and took a sip of red wine. They looked at each other and laughed.
In the Dawson family's old estate, Hayden only drank some soup for dinner. He ate a few mouthfuls of rice before setting down his chopsticks and leaving.
The caretaker cast a worried glance at Lucas after seeing Hayden leave the dining hall, "What's going on with Sir Hayden today?"
"I think he's worried about Sir Jospeh, Lucas lowered his voice. "Sir Hayden gets super worried and loses his appetite when Sir Jospeh is rebellious!"
"He's worried about Sir Jospeh? Then you should call Sir Jospeh and ask him to come back home as soon as possible, The caretaker said "I did, but he ignored my calls," Lucas was also worried.
"How can Sir Jospeh make his own father unhappy? Sir Hayden has been worried sick!"
She said as she urged Lucas, "Hurry up and talk to Sir Hayden. Don't let him keep everything in! He might break down someday."
Lucas nodded and followed Sir Hayden into the garden. Hayden walked along the stone path of the villa with his hands behind his back. He sat down in the pavilion in the garden before asking with a sigh, "Where is Jospeh right now?"
"I can't find any news about him!" Lucas lowered his head. He had sent someone to follow Jospeh after the latter had left the company. The people who followed him reported that he had gone to the Wolf Group with Paige.
The person who was following Jospeh had lost him, so he only knew that Jospeh took Paige out of the city. His men had also been tracked themselves when they had lost Jospeh as well.
"A bunch of rubbish! What's the point of hiring them If they can't even handle such small matters?" Hayden was enraged when he heard this.
"Don't be angry, Sir Hayden! What happened today was an accident, I've already warned them that this kind of thing should never happen again. However, you'd better think twice about Sir Jospeh's matters. Even though he's fooling around right now, I advise you to leave him be so that he can calm down himself."
"Calm down? Do you think he'll be able to do that?" Hayden laughed coldly. "He has been going against me for the longest time. How could he calm down?"
Lucas took a look at Hayden's furious face, "Don't be angry... I've already sent Sir Jospeh a message to tell him that you're in poor health and that he should come back immediately..."
Lucas hadn't even finished speaking when he was interrupted by Hayden, "What are you thinking? You can't use the same trick all the time. Only a fool would believe it if you used the same excuse so many times!"
Lucas did not dare to speak anymore after he had been scolded by Hayden. Jospeh had been obedient when he first returned to the country indeed. He would visit Hayden in the hospital whenever the latter was sick.
However, he was not concerned that his dad would fall ill at all recently.
Jospeh had even gone against Hayden in the company openly today as if he wasn't afraid of angering him at all. Could it be that he had realized something?
Lucas thought to himself and reminded Hayden, "Could it be that Sir Jospeh knows that you're pretending to be ill?"
"It's possible!" Hayden sighed. "He's smart, and he's not a fool... He might have already guessed it, so the message you sent him just now was probably just a joke to him."
"I'm sorry! It's all my fault!" Lucas apologized.
Hayden waved his hand, "An apology won't change anything because Jospeh won't turn back himself. Let's think of a way to deal with Paige instead!" Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
"I'm afraid that Liam won't be able to change anything either. Liam's relationship with Paige is extremely tense right now due to the matter with his mistress' daughter," Lucas reminded him.
"I'II do it if Liam can't help me! I can't just stand by and watch her harm my son, can I?" Hayden laughed coldly.
"I'm just worried about Sir Jospeh... He has a stubborn temper. He might cut ties with you if you mess with Paige, and it would be too late to do anything then...."
"I can't watch Paige influence him like that! Natalie stole a lover and killed the woman I loved the most indirectly. How could I let her daughter continue to harm my son with such hatred?"
Hayden gritted his teeth. "I will separate them at all costs even if Jospeh hates me in the end!"
