The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 63

At 7 o'clock in the evening, Paige rushed to the rotating restaurant in B City. She went through the door of the box and saw Sophia and Isabella sitting there with Liam. Paige instantly turned dark.

Isabella had to maintain her good stepmother appearance in front of Liam. She stood up with a smile and said, "Good to see you, Paige. Come here and have a seat!"

Sophia followed Isabella to her feet and enthusiastically held Paige's hand, as if she and Paige had never had a problem.

Seeing Sophia feigning innocence, Paige felt disgusted. She avoided Sophia's touch and looked at Liam, "What do you want, my dear father?"

"Come in and sit down, Paige. I've order the dishes you like. We talked over dinner." Liam also forced a smile.

Paige knew Liam had bad intentions behind his smile. It was a challenge for Paige to cover up her disgust while dining with the mistress and her daughter.

Paige wanted to turn around and leave, but when she thought about Bob's words, she resisted the idea.

She would like to figure out what Liam was up to when he brought the mistress and her daughter to meet her.

After watching Paige sit down, Isabella offered to pour Paige a cup of tea with a smirk and cautious expression.

"Paige, I'm sorry for what happened before. It's our fault that you have such a cold relationship with your father. Sophia and I want to apologize."

Paige saw it through that Isabella was making amends hypocritically, so she did not take over the tea cup and looked at Isabella coldly.

"You must be kidding, Ms. Martin. You said at the dinner party that you had nothing to do with my father. How could my father and I be at loggerhead over an outsider?"

After being relentlessly rebutted by Paige, Isabella managed to keep a smile on her face despite the hatred in her heart.

"Paige, I'm sorry to make you uncomfortable. It's all my fault. You can do whatever you want to me, but your father is innocent."

Paige had to admit that Isabella was really good at hoaxing others. She knew when to be vulnerable and naive, and she took the blame for it all, which was sure to win Liam over.

Paige pursed her lips and smiled, "Sure. My dad is innocent. You shamelessly seduced my dad, didn't you?"

It was hard for Isabella to answer this question. Because if she didn't admit that she seduced Liam, that meant she admitted that Liam seduced her. Isabella now knew that Paige was more articulate than she thought.

Paige looked at Isabella with disdain, "Everyone knows what you're up to. You deliberately seduced my father into giving birth to an illegitimate daughter, so that one day you could become mistress of the house with the help of your illegitimate daughter, right?"

Isabella's face turned white because of Paige's unmasking her, "No, no. Paige, it's not what you think. I met your father before your mother and I never meant to disturb your father's life at that time..."

"Then you should never show up in front of my father if you didn't want to disturb him. So why did you show up? Don't pretend to be innocent. You really think we are fools?"

Paige's words made Liam's face change.

He was not a fool. Isabella kept saying that she didn't want to disturb him. Since so, why did she let Sophia get close to Paige?

Before Paige knowing Sophia's identity, they were on very good terms with each other, weren't they?

Paige knew that Liam had believed what she said, so she smiled sarcastically.

"You let your daughter approach me and hook up with Ethan to drive me away, right? As long as I'm thrown out, you and your daughter can do whatever you want in front of my father? One day, all property of the Anderson family will be occupied by you and your illegitimate daughter. I have to say, Ms. Martin, you've made a perfect plan!"

Isabella had no idea that Paige was so eloquent and everything she said pointed to her intentions. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Liam gradually showed a thoughtful expression, which made her panic. She couldn't let Liam know that

she had a purpose or all her plans would be destroyed.

Now she must dispel Liam's doubts about her. So Isabella immediately acted as if she was about to cry.

"I won't blame you for misunderstanding me. But we are not what you think. We just want to apologize, without any other purpose. Sophia and I won't enter the Anderson family. You can count on it!"

"Well, let's wait and see. Ms. Martin, please remember what you said today. If you want me to believe that you have no other agenda, please take your illegitimate daughter out of B City and away from my father. Only in this way can I believe in you!"

Paige pushed her so hard that Isabella hated her to the extreme. How could she possibly want to leave B city? But it was only for a moment that she came up with a solution.

"We can leave B city, but... Sophia is pregnant. You may not know. Because of the baby, the Anderson family and the Dawson family are about to start their partnership, which was agreed by Madam Dawson. If we infuriate the Dawson family by leaving, it will bring an end to the partnership."

Isabella was reminding Liam that it was Sophia who made the two families work together.

Liam knew it for sure. He looked at Paige unhappily,'

"Paige, don't mess around!"

"Mess around? You think I'm messing around? Do you have any idea of what they have done to me? They purposely smeared me, framed me, and even paid people to kidnap me. If you still treat me as your daughter, why don't you see they are so despicable and shameless?"

"Paige, don't talk nonsense! You need evidence. We never framed or kidnapped you. Don't frame us with unwarranted charges." Isabella denied it and turned to Liam for help.

"Liam, you know me well. I promise I never hurt Paige. Believe me!"

"A shameless mistress is not to be trusted." Paige looked at Isabella disdainfully.

Liam's asking Isabella and her daughter to apologize was just going through the motions. The purpose of bringing Paige here was to get her to end her relationship with the ordinary man and move back home. Liam frowned at Paige's aggression and looked at her disagreeably.

"Well, let bygones be bygones. Isabella and Sophia have sincerely apologized to you, so please don't bring up any of those unpleasant things. We're family."

"Family", the righteous word made Paige disgusted. She finally saw it through that Liam had never believed in her and never did he intend to help her.

"Being such case, better not to waste time." She thought with a mocking smile.

"Sorry, I don't want to feel how you feel. I will never be in a family with this pair of mother and daughter!"

Compared with the obedience of Isabella and her daughter, Paige was simply totally obdurate. With a stringy forehead, Liam could no longer pretend to be gentle. He stared at Paige fiercely. "Shut up! When will you be grown up?"

Looking at the livid Liam, Paige found that Liam had become very strange to her.

She was downhearted with no more other words, "So what do you want to tell me today? I got plenty of things to deal with and leave here right after your words!"

Her words made Liam angrier, "Good. Let's make it straight. Are you with a poor man? My daughter is not allowed to date with such a poor man! Break up with that man right now!"
