The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 39

It was Liam on the phone. In the morning, she called Liam, but he didn't answer. Now he called her on the phone. He must be calling now to scold her for driving Sophia and Isabella out of the house.

Paige picked up the phone and waited to see what Liam was going to say to her. But unexpectedly, there was no anger in Liam's voice on the other end of the phone.

"Paige, where are you?"

"What's wrong?" Paige replied coldly.

"I asked the nanny to prepare the dishes you like. Come back for dinner."

Did the sun rise from the west? Liam actually took the initiative to care about her.

Paige now did not believe Liam anymore.

She continued to answer coldly, "I'm eating outside."

"Will you come back at night?" Liam asked again.

"No, I don't want to go back." Paige refused.

"My dear, why don't you go home? What kind of animosity can there be between parents and children? You see, I have asked them to leave as you asked. You can come back and move back in."

Paige only felt disgusted about Liam words.

He said that he asked = the mistresses to leave according to her request? If she hadn't done something special this morning, how would mother and daughter had moved out?

They relied on Liam's support to be so arrogant and fearless.

She sneered and said, "I'm busy working to earn money to feed myself, so I don't have time to come back"

Liam was stunned when he heard her words. Was she reminding him that he had frozen her card?

Damn it! If he hadn't wanted to know what Paige had to do with the president of the Wolf Group, he wouldn't have lowered his voice and suppressed his anger.

Liam held his anger back and said, "I've already unfrozen your card."

"Really? Thank you, then. I'll have dinner first, and we'll talk about it later."

After hanging up, Paige snorted. She used to rely heavily on Liam.

But after these recent events, she found that Liam was not as nice to her as Young Master Joseph, who was sitting opposite her.

Joseph saw her unhappy expression and raised his eyebrows, "Your dad's call? He wants you to go home?"

"Yeah, there must be some conspiracy behind this sudden kindness. After all, I've just driven the mistresses out and made him so humiliated. There is no reason for him to be so nice to me."

Knowing that she used her brain to think about the problem, Joseph chuckled and said, "Then go back and have a look. You'll know what he's going to do."

"Well, let's leave it. Let's eat first. I am starving."

This hotpot restaurant tasted absolutely good, otherwise, it wouldn't be called The Returned Customers.

Paige couldn't stop eating as it tasted hot, spicy, and delicious. Seeing her nose was covered with sweat, Joseph took out a napkin to wipe it for her.

She was so happy with her own food that she didn't notice him. It was only when he wiped her sweat that she realised he hadn't eaten much.

She stopped eating. "Why did you eat so little? Is it not to your taste?"

"No. It tasted really good, but…"

"Then what are you dawdling about? Just eat it. Are you still a man?"

Joseph's stomach was not so good and he had been nourishing it recently. The doctor asked him not to eat spicy food, so he did not even eat spicy dishes. But now he was provoked by Paige, making him quite unhappy.

"Who are you saying isn't a man? Do you want to try at night?"

"If you are a man, eat up these dishes!" Paige put a lot of dishes into the plate in front of him.

Looking at the spicy dishes with fresh aroma piled up in front of them, Joseph darkened his face, "Thank you, you're so kind to me!"

"That's right." Paige lapped up the praise.

Joseph began to enjoy the dishes. It tasted good, but it was just so spicy that he felt his lips and tongue were not his own anymore.

Looking at the little woman who kept eating, Joseph thought of the question he had just been thinking about.

"Does she only treat me well, or does she always been so kind to others?"

He coughed and said, "I want to know whether you will help other people who is in such a big debt or not?"

"Are you out of your mind? I'm not a fool. Why should I help other people pay their debts?" Paige retorted without thinking.

"Then why did you help me?"

"Because you are also very kind to me." Paige said as she put down her chopsticks.

"You've helped me so much. You saved me. You saved me from the kidnappers arranged by Sophia. You also lent me money and provided me with a dwelling place. Of course, I'll be grateful and kind to you."

Joseph sighed slightly. The little woman didn't let him down.

"Why did you sigh? Am I wrong?"

"You're right, but I thought you were so kind to me because you fell in love with me at first sight. After all, I'm so handsome, aren't I?"

"You are so shameless. Are you handsome? I've seen men who are more handsome than you." Paige stared at him and said with a little guilty conscience. So far, she hadn't seen a man more handsome than Young Master Joseph.

So Joseph was not a narcissist. He could show off in front of her.

She could not help muttering in a low voice, "What's the point of being handsome? He has slept with so many old women."

Upon hearing it, Joseph was speechless.

After dinner, Joseph didn't go back to the hotel. He had to keep pretending. He sent a message to James and followed Paige back to the apartment.

Paige ate happily and was in a particularly good mood.

She kept telling Joseph, "If you don't work in Climax Space in the future, I'm afraid you won't be able to drive a luxury car or buy luxury brand anymore. Will you be able to accept it?"

"Not really, I'm already used to it!" Joseph replied.

He was telling the truth. It was common for him to drive a luxury car and wear top luxury brands.

Paige frowned when she heard his words. "Is he going to work in Climax Space again to earn big bucks?"

She was not happy, with her face sullen and her voice rough and crunchy.

"You have to hold back. You can't serve those rich women all your life, can you? You can drive my car, and it's not that bad. Also, you'd better not go out for the time being. When I go to work, I will see if there is any suitable job for you. Don't go out and look for it yourself, understand?" Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"I see. You're too long-winded." What an annoying but funny woman!

In the evening, the two sat in the living room and made an agreement before Paige returned to her room. Paige took a shower and quickly fell asleep on the bed.

In the middle of the night, she heard a voice outside in a daze. She thought that she had been hallucinating, so she turned over and went back to sleep.

Later, the doorbell rang, and Paige was completely awake.

She looked at her cell phone and thought, "It's two o'clock in the morning. Who will come to knock at

this time?"

At the same moment there was the sound of Joseph opening the door. He must have got up to open the door.

People who came knocking at the door in the middle of the night were not necessarily nice people. She had to stop Joseph from opening the door.

Paige got up immediately and opened the door.

As the door opened, Joseph appeared in her sight, holding on to the wall, with his face pale and shaky.

Paige was startled. She went up to hold Joseph and asked, "What... what's wrong with you?"
