The Mysterious Billionaire

Paige rolled her eyes, "Danya is putting on a show. She was arguing with me up until you came back a moment ago."

"Why were you arguing?" Joseph asked.

"She said she picked fights with me because she wanted me to leave you. Apparently, Paisley has a crush on you."

Paige was answering truthfully. However, Joseph took it as a joke. He put his arm around Paige's waist and said, "Babe, not funny."

"I'm not joking," Paige pulled a straight face, "Danya said Paisley came here especially for you. She's here to seduce and steal you away from me."

Danya freaked out when she heard Paige complaining.

But she was sure that she didn't leave any evidence when she provoked Paige earlier.

So, she had nothing to worry about.

At the thought of that, Danya took a deep breath and began another round of howling as she headed downstairs.

"She's lying! Why would I say something so outrageous?!"

"Oh, now you deny it? Then who's the one that admitted it to me earlier?" Paige looked at Danya sarcastically.

Noticing that Joseph was looking at her in disdain, Danya wiped away the tears. "Why should I admit to things I didn't do?"

"Mr. Dawson, I'm very grateful that you have taken Miss Anthony and me in. Since Miss Anderson is your girlfriend, I'll close one eye to how she's been treating me."

Paige cocked her brows and scoffed, "Should I thank you for your generosity then? But I won't condone your behaviors. So, please, let's tell Joseph the purpose of your trip here and how you faked being robbed just to come to stay in the villa. You also told me that Paisley is going to steal my man, right? Why don't you elaborate that to Joseph too?"

"What nonsense are you talking about, Miss Anderson? I never said that!" Danya whined.

"Mr. Dawson, I don't know what she's talking about. Miss Anderson has been very wary of Miss Anthony and me since we arrived here."

Danya took a breath and continued. "And things went out of hand after Miss Anthony went on a business trip with you. Miss Anderson came to me and said things that I didn't understand, mainly about how Miss Anthony came here to seduce you... Miss Anthony is an educated lady! She wouldn't do things like this."

"How is being educated preventing her from stealing others' man? All that glitters is not gold. You must know how your lady is like," Paige sneered.

Joseph frowned and stopped her, "Paige!"

Danya's lips curled into a small smile when she saw Joseph's furrowed brows. He must have realized Paige was someone unreasonable and immature.

Striking while the iron was hot, Danya added, "Mr. Dawson, Miss Anderson suspected the relationship between our lady and you, so she targeted me at every turn. Look at the fingerprints on my face! Miss Anderson slapped me just because I defended Miss Anthony!"

Joseph glimpsed at the marks on Danya's face, and he turned to Paige to ask, "Did you hit her, Paige?"

Paige was quick to deny, "Of course not! Why would I? She's bluffing. She'll do anything for her lady, so I wouldn't be surprised if she slapped herself and wanted to frame me for it."

Danya stared at Paige with wide eyes, "Are you shifting the blame on me now?"

"Why should I admit to things I didn't do?" Paige rolled her eyes, fighting fire with fire.

Her attitude had thrown Danya off.

Earlier, Paige said that there were surveillance cameras everywhere in the villa. So, what happened earlier must have been recorded on the tape.

Danya wondered if Paige lied about the cameras earlier. Because Danya could have easily debunked Paige's excuse if she had asked to review the surveillance footage.

If she really was lied to, it wouldn't be wise for Danya to suggest looking at the footage for proof. She would need to explain why the surveillance system would come up in their conversation.

"Why would I hit myself? I'm not dumb."

"Of course you're not dumb. You're using tricks you've learned over the years of working with the Anthony family on me now. You are framing me because you're afraid that I'd expose your true color."

Upon hearing Paige's twisted fact, Danya was infuriated. Since she dared not ask about the surveillance, there was nothing else she could do other than emphasize how overly possessive and aggressive Paige was.

Danya had already said all that she could in hopes that Joseph would be upset at Paige. However, Joseph only frowned.

The war of words between Paige and Danya was starting to give him a headache.
