Chapter 309
After Abbie hung up the phone, she immediately called Aiden to tell him about it. Aiden was very surprised when he heard Paige's request.
"Are you sure that Paige told you this?"
"I'm very sure! Bro, this situation is extremely urgent. Her father isn't a good person, so you have to help her. Otherwise, she'll be in deep trouble!" Abbie didn't know what was going on, but she knew that she had to help Paige.
Aiden laughed and replied, "Alright, I got it. You don't have to worry too much, and you should ask Paige to take it easy, too. It won't be a problem."
Abbie was relieved when she saw him agree to Paige's request easily. She hung up the phone and reported to Paige.
On the other hand, Aiden hung up the phone and immediately called Joseph, "Joseph, your wife wants me to freeze the company's assets for her. Did you know that?"
Joseph was very surprised. It seemed like Paige knew of Liam's plans as he had just given the same order. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
Why did she not tell him after finding out about it?
Did she not take him seriously?
Joseph felt annoyed, "I know! I've already arranged for someone to do it."
"So it's none of my business then? Joseph, you're such a coward. Why aren't you revealing your identity to her even though you've been together for such a long time? This way, Paige won't be so anxious whenever she's in trouble!"
"Do you think I don't want to? I told her yesterday, but she thought it was a joke!" Joseph was angry when he recalled the scene of Paige rolling on the bed as she was laughing with her belly in her arms.
"She doesn't believe your real identity?"
"Yeah, I guess I will remain a playboy to her after all," Joseph sighed.
"It's your fault for relying on your sex appeal to make a living when you can obviously do it with your capabilities instead. You deserve this!" Aiden took pleasure in Joseph's misery.
Joseph was depressed, "Don't laugh at me. Can you help me find out what she knows, and why she did she decide to freeze the company's assets suddenly? I think Hardy might have suggested this to her."
"Ask your own wife then! Why are you asking an outsider like me for help? Aren't you embarrassed about it?"
Joseph rubbed his forehead and said, "She would've told me the truth if she could. Now that I think about it, it's all my dad's fault."
"Liam met my father secretly last night. My people didn't hear any news because Hardy got in the way.
I suspect that he heard something and then proceeded to tell Paige about it, hence she's wary of me now."
"Your father is so cruel! What did Paige ever do to him? Why does he treat her like this?" Aiden was also very surprised.
"Honestly, Paige is a hundred times better than the flirty b*tches you were with previously. He ignored them completely, but now he's picking on her... There must be something wrong!"
"I know something's up. You should try asking Paige for more details first," Joseph answered with a headache.
"Do you think she'll tell me if she's hiding it from you too? Ask your woman yourself! I'm not going to ask her about it, so I can't help you!"
"Can't you ask Abbie for help? Paige tells her everything. You better figure things out right now, or else, don't blame me for something to happen!"
"D*mn, this is the first time I've met someone being so cocky when asking for a favour. Please, do I owe you anything?" Aiden hung up the phone while cursing and he called Abbie again, "Abbie, what did Liam do? Why did Paige decide to freeze the company assets?"
"I don't know the details either. I just received a call from her asking me to ask you for help."
"Go and find out about it now, but don't tell her I asked you to do so, alright?"
"Bro, what are you trying to do?" Abbie asked alertly.
"I need to know the reason why she needs my help, right? I'II be in trouble if I end up in jail because of something she did! This is a serious matter and it involves the court. You don't want to see me going to jail because of a fake contract, do you?"
Aiden exaggerated the issue so that Abbie would tell him what Paige said, "Let me know what she says, alright?"
Abbie was also worried about him, "I have a dinner appointment with her tonight, so I'll tell you what she says."
Paige had entrusted Abbie to ask for Aiden's help and Aiden had agreed to help as well. Therefore, she had to work out a plan to keep both of them safe as she did not want accidents to happen to any of them.
Liam had just met with Hayden last night, so he probably had no time to plan anything else today. She had to make a move to deal with the official seal of the Anderson Group before anything could happen.
She had wanted to steal the official seal so that Liam could not seal the deal in time.
However, she had thought of a better idea thanks to the news that she had read on her mobile phone just now.
Stealing the seal would alert Liam too much, so she would change the seal instead.
She would make a fake and identical Anderson Group seal and swap it with the real one.
This way, even if Liam signed the contract with Hayden, the contract would still be useless because of the fake seal.
Paige had been deep in thought when her phone rang. It was a call from Joseph.
"Honey, shall we have lunch together?"
"I think I don't have time this afternoon, and I have an appointment with Abbie at night. You can join us if you don't mind eating together with her, but you'll have to wait until tomorrow otherwise," Paige replied.
"Are you busy now?" Joseph asked deliberately.
'I'm a little busy."
"Can you tell me what you're busy with? I might be able to help you with it."
"You won't be able to help with my company's issues anyways," Paige replied as she was about to replicate the company seal, "I'll call you back later, honey."
Joseph reminded her, "I know a lot of people, and I have a lot of connections. I'll definitely be able to help you if you tell me about your problems."
"It's alright, I can deal with these minor problems myself," Paige wanted to tell Joseph the truth, but she couldn't do so as this problem involved Hayden.
She was still doubting Hardy's words, and she wanted to tell him about it only when she had found out
the truth.
Joseph felt upset as Paige was insisting on hiding the truth for him. It felt terrible as she did not trust him at all.
He put on a bitter smile and hung up the phone before rubbing his forehead as he felt a headache come in.
Bobby called him after a while, "Sir Joseph, I found Miss Anderson using the location on her mobile phone. She is now on the side of Fort Street."
"Why is she there?" Joseph asked.
"She seems to be looking for something. Wait, Sir, she has entered a store that makes seals."
"Store that makes seals? What is she planning to do there?" Joseph was stunned for a moment as a thought struck him. Did Paige come up with this idea on her own?
He did not expect her to be so cunning.
Women were dangerous animals after all Joseph chuckled and replied, "I know what she is going to do. She must have gone to replicate her company's official seal. Make sure you follow her and keep her safe."
"Yes, sir!"
