The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 267

Danya was tongue-tied. Paige's questions seemed genuine, but Danya was still mad because there was nothing for her to say.

She could have said the man was Joseph to provoke Paige upfront if Paisley really slept with him. However, it was only a story that Danya made up to irk Paige.

Danya, of course, wouldn't dare to put Joseph's name on it. But it didn't mean that her plan failed. Since they were the only ones in the villa, Danya dropped her act and sneered.

"Why won't you guess who's the man?"

"I can't. That's why I'm asking you," Paige chided.

"Well, not everyone is worthy of Ms. Anthony. She's sophisticated and talented. So naturally, the man is someone tall, handsome, and has a high status. Also, she doesn't like foreigners. So, the person is from our country."

Danya thought Paige would jump when she heard the answer. But Paige was undisturbed.

Paige nodded indifferently, "I see... Anyway, I've been wondering why Paisley came here. Is she here to travel, or is she chasing a man here? If she came here for a man, I wonder what he looks like to make her willingly fly abroad for him."

Paige's blunt answer left Danya gaped in disbelief.

"Just think about it, Miss Anderson! You're so smart. I think you can find out who Ms. Anthony came for on your own. Who is she with now?"

Paige pretended to think about it while frowning, "She is with... Joseph now right?"

"Tall, handsome, someone with high status, and he's from our country, you say? Wait, you're saying that Paisley came for Joseph? Well, indeed, many women fell for his good looks. Is it the same for Ms. Anthony too? Is she trying to take Joseph away from me? Oh my, isn't she a little too shameless?"

"Watch your tongue! Her appearance is god-given. Do you think she needs to try to make Joseph hers?"

"God-given?" Paige snorted. "I don't think so. So, tell your Miss that if she ever dares to make moves on Joseph, I'll make her pay for it! I'm not someone to be trifled with. If Paisley steals Joseph away, I swear I'll expose her. As a daughter of the Anthonys, I'm sure she'll be on the trending list in no time!" Paige gave Danya a contemptuous look.

Paige's threats silenced Danya.

Paige was unpredictable.

If she really did as she said, Paisley's reputation would inevitably be tarnished.

Naturally, Danya didn't want that to happen.

So, she immediately denied it.

"Have you heard yourself? Ms. Anthony would never do that! Men after men begged for her attention. She wouldn't stoop down to seduce Joseph."

Paige shrugged, "If you said so, then I'll take your word for it. But I'll have you know that I trust Joseph more than I trust your groundless promise. Joseph wouldn't possibly lay an eye on Paisley. After all, she knows nothing other than acting like she's innocent and better than others."

Danya was rendered speechless. She realized that there was no hope in having a peaceful and logical conversation with Paige. The more they spoke, the more upset Danya felt. Yet, Paige seemed so composed.

Danya fumed, "Just you wait and see! When the time comes, you'll know that Ms. Anthony is the best."

Danya stormed angrily back to her room.

Paige sneered as she watched Danya's back. Danya was being too cocky. It seemed like she still had something up her sleeves.

At around six in the evening, Joseph called, "Paige, I might not be able to come back tonight."

"Why?"

"Paisley fainted and we're now in the hospital. So, I don't think we can leave here now."

Upon hearing Joseph's words, the first thing that came into Paige's mind was how strange it was for Paisley to pass out right when they were about to head back.

Why was she acting sick?

Was it to allow Joseph to pamper her a little longer?

Paige pouted, "But it's none of your business. Leave Lucas there with her. She'll be fine."

"Babe, Paisley came here with me. I can't just leave her like this."

Paige heaved a long sigh, "Fine, forget what I said. But don't you dare to stay in the same room with her alone, am I clear?"

"Babe, are you jealous? I've explained to you countless times before, I love you, and only you. Why won't you believe me?" Joseph laughed.

"What's so funny? I'm not joking! Can't you feel that Paisley has feelings for you? I'm telling you, you can stay, but you can't stay with her alone. Paisley has ulterior motives when it comes to you."

Joseph didn't believe what Paige was saying. He softened his voice to coax her, "You're overthinking this. Ms. Anthony comes from a respectable family. She's well-mannered. Besides, she knows that we're dating. There's no way she'd still fall for me."

"Forget it, I'll make you believe me."

"Alright, alright. I won't stay with Ms. Anthony alone," Joseph promised.

Shortly later, they ended the call. Even though Joseph was trying to convince her otherwise, Paige still felt that Paisley was plotting something.

It disgusted Paige to think that Paige would try to make advances at Joseph in the hospital.
