The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 28

Who walked into the hall was the one Liam had said was sick and unable to attend the party.

Ron clearly saw Paige enter the room, as did the others. Someone reminded him, "Mr. Anderson, didn't you say that your daughter, Miss Anderson, is at home convalescing?"

"I." Liam was speechless.

Everyone in the hall fixed their eyes on Paige, who was wearing a dirty white dress.

Her hair was also in a mess, which made her looked quite different from the well-off young lady of the Anderson family.

The ladies were furious at the sight of the poor Paige, and the flashy Sophia mother and daughter brought in by Liam and Ethan in their custom dresses.

"How can Liam be so shameless? He abused the daughter of his ex-wife, but doted on the mistress and her daughter."

"Yeah. Poor Miss Anderson. She's wearing old and dirty clothes. If Natalie found out, she would be furious and even come back to life."

"Such an ugly mistress even doesn't deserve to carry Natalie's shoes. How did Liam take a fancy to her? Was she great in bed?"

"It must be so. I remember that in ancient times, there was an emperor who didn't like his young and beautiful wife but slept with his wet nurse. Liam may be as sick inside as the emperor." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

Those rich ladies hated mistresses the most.

Who could be sure that their husbands were loyal to them? Maybe their husbands had kept mistresses just like Liam.

They all hated the mistress most, so they unanimously blamed Liam, Sophia and Isabella.

Isabella always thought she's beautiful and younger than her peers

Now these noble ladies said that she was old. They compared Liam and her to the Emperor and the wet nurse. She almost vomited blood from anger.

Liam's face turned into red as a pork liver.

He never thought these women would speak in such a vicious way, even calling him a pervert.

And all was because of Paige, the damn b*stard. If there weren't so many people around, Liam would give her a hard time But now, he knew that he couldn't. Not only he couldn't give Paige a lesson, but he had to think of a way to make it all work out.

Liam was also a big shot. He had to protect his own reputation. He immediately thought of a way to explain all this.

He suppressed his anger and strode to Paige, "Paige, why are you here?"

"Dad, are you questioning me?" Paige asked with tears in her eyes.

"Of course not. My child, is it necessary to make such a big deal of the misunderstanding between you and I?"

Liam sighed, "Your Aunt Isabella and I have nothing to do with each other. She is just my classmate. She came to B City to see a doctor. As a host, I just asked her to stay in our house for a few more days. She will leave when she's done."

"Really? But just now, Ethan stopped me and told me that she moved into my house to marry you. He also said you were going to make your relationship public here."

Paige put all blame on Ethan. It was Ethan who told her about Liam and Isabella.

It had nothing to do with her.

"Ethan must have been in drunk. Paige, I know you're upset that Sophia stole your boyfriend, Ethan. But this is between you, Sophia and Ethan. You can't blame it on me and Aunt Isabella, can you?"

Blame it on them? He was so sinister that he tried to clear him and Isabella by blaming everything on her jealousy of Sophia.

Paige thought he was very fond of Sophia, but he wasn't.

When his interests were violated, Liam selfishly chose to save himself. Paige gave Sophia and Isabella a mocking glance.

Liam did not dare to admit Sophia and Isabella in public because of his own reputation, which was within Paige's expectations. At this time, sure, she had to continue on as Liam's words.

"So father, you have nothing to do with them? I knew it! How could my father fall in love with such an old, ugly, and uncultured old woman. But father, since they have nothing to do with you, why did you bring them to attend the B City feast?"

It was not easy to attend the feast. Many people would come here by all means possible. Liam did not bring his daughter, but brought Sophia and Isabella. What did he mean?

Liam did not expect Paige to drop him a sarcastic hint. He was angry, but he tried to be a loving father.

"Sophia came with Ethan, it had nothing to do with me. As for Ms. Martin, she took the initiative and said she want to take a look at the grand occasion of the feast. I couldn't refuse her, so I brought her in. I would think more carefully in the future."

"Well? That's to say, I misunderstood dad. Why didn't you make it clear to me earlier, dad?" Paige seemed to believe Liam's words.

She turned around and looked at Sophia and Isabella with a scornful smile, "It turns out that my father really has nothing to do with you but that's not what you said."

"I remember Ms. Martin told me very clearly that you were my father's mistress that day, and you also said that Sophia was my father's daughter. Shame on you! Did you have a dirty idea of my father because he was rich and single? You moved into my house not because you have to see a doctor, but to seduce my father?"

"Paige, I never said that. Don't get me wrong. Your father and I are just classmates." Isabella refused to admit what she had said.

"Oh, you and my father are just classmates. So I misunderstood you? Then you might know that not everyone is qualified to come here, right? You said you are not interested in my father. Then why do you play up to him to come here? What on earth do you want?"

Being questioned by Paige, Isabella's face turned red, "I don't have any purpose. I'm just curious, so I want to come and have a look. Paige, don't get me wrong."

"Get you wrong? I do hope I have misunderstood you. Your daughter also tried her best to suck up to me at that time. She served me like a servant and pretended to be pitiful. I pitied her, and gave her a meal, but guess what? She seduced Ethan into bed. Are you having the same idea as your daughter?"

Paige glanced at the ladies and said, "It's said that if the upper beam was not straight, the lower ones would go aslant. Miss Martin must have taught her daughter to be so shameless. Since Ms. Martin is not related to my father, she must have other agendas."

Paige paused for a moment and continued, "Everyone came here is a big shot. Are Ms Martin trying to hook up with someone successful here?"

These words were both cunning and vicious, which made all the noblewomen presented change their faces. They looked at Isabella scornfully and started to scoff at her.

"She? Why didn't she look into the mirror? What does she have to hook up with? With that old face of hers?"

"Not necessarily. Maybe she is as profligate as her daughter. Everyone has seen the video just now. Her daughter is really shameless at such a young age, and she is even more profligate than the streetwalkers." Isabella's face turned totally black as others talking about her with disdain. She had never experienced such a shame in her life.

She and the little b*tch. Paige, were at daggers drawn!

She cursed and dug her fingernails deep into her palms before resisting the urge to rush in and strangle Paige.

When Sophia heard the discussion about her and Isabella, she were also fuming with anger. She stared at Paige angrily, "Paige, Ethan and I really love each other. It's not like what you said. If you're mad at me, take it out on me, leave my mother out of it."

"Miss Martin, don't worry. It will be your turn soon." Paige looked at Sophia with hatred in her beautiful eyes.

"Miss Martin, since you have nothing to do with my father, why did you keep telling me that you are my father's daughter? Why did you threaten me not to be insolent, or I would die without a burial place? Didn't my father just say that I moved out just because I got in a rage with him? I didn't move out, I was kidnapped. Miss Martin, don't you want to say something?"
