The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 85

After Michael left, Elizabeth and Liam were the only ones left in the room.

Elizabeth looked at Liam and said, "What's your plan, Mr. Anderson?"

"That wretch did such a shameless thing, and I really want to beat her to death. She should really be responsible for the apology."

"I'm talking about the compensation. Sophia is the one who caused this trouble. Mr. Anderson, you wouldn't be thinking of not paying for it, don't you?" Elizabeth reminded

"It's the Dawson family and Ethan who harmed Paige, so Sophia is just an accomplice. However, she's at fault for framing her sister with those evil tactics. Therefore, I didn't intend to let her out, just let her be put into prison then."

Liam was extremely miserly when it came to money. Hence, how could he pay the compensation for Sophia?

Elizabeth didn't expect Liam to be such an unbelievable niggardly on the money. Then, she looked at Liam coldly.

"So, you don't want to cooperate with the Dawson family anymore? I'd like to remind you that if Sophia is in jail, then she can't be with Ethan anymore. Why not just let her abort the baby!"

She was obviously threatening him.

Then, Liam thought for a moment. Since the money would be given to Paige, so he could still find a

way to get the money back from her afterwards.

"l'Il pay 50 million, that's all I can manage!"

"One hundred million! One fixed price! If you're willing to pay this amount of money, I'll be taking care of the collaboration between you and the Dawson Group in the future.

After weighing for a while, Liam nodded and said, "Okay, deal, I will pay it!"

After the successful payment made by Elizabeth and Liam, Ethan and Sophia were released after being locked up for 24 hours.

It was only a day, but Ethan was already looking haggard. Meanwhile, Elizabeth quickly got on the car with Ethan without saying a word.

Ethan sat in the car with a dispirited expression, "Aunt, I've caused you trouble. I'm sorry!"

Elizabeth was displeased after seeing Ethan like this. The four hundred million was basically all the savings that she had saved over the past ten years since she married Charles. Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Charles wasn't generous to her, and it took her a great effort to save the money.

However, she had lost all of it to Paige now just for Ethans sake, and she was very pissed off.

But she knew that it was not the time to get angry, so she had no choice but to pull herself together and start afresh.

"Ethan, don't worry. We still have the chance and sufficient time. Let's go home and have a rest first. We will be better after this matter is over!"

However, Ethan wasn't as optimistic as Elizabeth. After being locked up for 24 hours, he had been ruminating about tons of stuff.

He was regretful and angry. If only he hadn't cheated on Sophia and the dispute with Valaria never happened, things would definitely take a turn.

Suddenly, he was grossed out by the thought of how Sophia had peed her pants in the interrogation room. Just why in the world would he be willing to be with a disgusting person like her?

Sophia came out a few minutes later, and Ethan had been taken away by Elizabeth.

She was fatigued and took on a ghastly expression after being locked up for a day. There was also a strong odor of urine smell on her when she came out. After seeing Liam and Isabella, she cried out tearfully.

"Mom and Dad! They won't let me go to the bathroom and they're torturing me... You guys have to help me out!"

Liam was disgusted by her appearance. As the cold hearted person that he used to be, he immediately gave her a slap in the face when he saw her crying.

"How dare you still have the guts to cry? Do you know how much money I have lost because of you? You shameless brat!"

Sophia stopped crying and started weeping silently in the car. Then Liam started the car angrily.

"Let me tell you this, you take good care of Ethan. And if anything goes wrong with the cooperation with the Dawson family, I will never let you go!"

Liam, Sophia, Elizabeth, and Ethan felt extremely upset and uneasy at this moment, but Paige was extremely happy.

The Dawson Group immediately clarified the plagiarism issue on the apology statement and the five hundred million had also been paid. In the meantime, Sophia and Ethan's social media was pinned with the apology post.

Sophia also had to hold a press conference tomorrow to make a formal apology to Paige.

Paige had held back for such a long time, and she finally turned the tables. She was extremely proud and satisfied. Paige immediately called Joseph and expressed her excitement, "I'm telling you, we're getting rich now! You don't have to be a driver, got it? I'll take care of you from now on!"

Joseph was still in Hayden's ward. Upon hearing this, he quickly walked outside and chuckled. "Are you going to support me financially?"

"Yes, from now on, just stay at home and wait for me to pamper you. I'll take care of the family." Paige said haughtily.

"Are you sure? But I don't want to be a house husband, ugh." Joseph was in a distress.

"Anyway, I don't want you to be James's driver anymore. You always come back late every day and leave in the middle of the night. I don't want you to work so hard and I just want to be with you every day."

"Well, I'll consider your suggestion." Joseph smiled mysteriously when he hung up Paige's call. Was he such an easy person? Did she really think that 500 million was enough to support him?

Indeed, she was too naive and gullible. She simply believed that Aiden was the one who helped her. After that, he shook his head in disapproval and turned around.

Hayden staggered out of the ward with a walking stick in hand and stood behind him, "Who's calling?"

"It's a friend."

"Is it a woman?"

"Yes!" Joseph didn't intend to hide.

Then Hayden sighed, "Joseph, it's about time for a change of behaviour. Don't go on to be a player like this. Cut off your relationship with the women outside, alright? Dad will find a suitable match for you."

Joseph frowned, "Dad, I'll make my own decision. You don't have to worry about it."

"How can I not be worried? Look at your carefree and playful behavior. What can you do without a good wife?" Hayden was really concerned about him.

Suddenly, Charles came in at the middle of their conversation and smiled, "Dad, how are you feeling

now? Oh, is Joseph here too?"

"I'm doing much better!" Hayden gestured for Charles to sit down.

"I asked you to come here today because of Joseph. Didn't Joseph refuse to work in the company last time? But today I persuade him, and he finally agreed to it. So, he will be going to work tomorrow."

"Uh... Dad, this is too sudden. Why don't you give me two days for preparation?" Charles was shocked by his decision and turned down subconsciously.

"Do you need two days to arrange for employment?" Hayden asked.

"Of course, Joseph is different. He will be working for the management department and he can't join so hastily. I'll have to arrange for someone to welcome him and it's going to be a big ceremony."

"Well, you're right. Since you're doing it, make it grand! I'll give you a day to prepare then! Do inform all the members of the board directors and I'll accompany Joseph there personally on that day!"
