The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 304

Paige did not expect a text from Lamont.

She thought she misread his name. Why did he contact her in advance even though there was still another day till their appointment?

Could there be something else?

Paige stared at the text message for a while. She had to go and see him no matter what had happened, so she replied to the message immediately, "I'll be right there."

"I need to deal with some issues, so please don't alert anyone else and come alone, Miss Anderson," he sent another message.

She frowned and thought for a moment before agreeing with his request, "Okay, I'll go alone later."

She immediately rushed to their meeting point after leaving Joseph. It took her a while to find the exact address, but it was just an ordinary two-story house.

She stopped the car and rang the doorbell.

Paige was shocked to see the person that had opened the doorbell, "Are you Aunt Lucian?"

The one who opened the door was Lucian Barnbook, who used to serve her mother.

Paige didn't have a deep impression of her, but she had been helping her mother with things before she turned eight, so she was equivalent to being her mother's assistant.

Lucian had helped her mother manage the company as well as her personal affairs. However, she had left due to unknown reasons later.

Her appearances had not changed much even though a decade had passed, so Paige recognised her immediately.


She welcomed Paige with a gentle smile, "Miss Anderson is here, please come in!" Lucian was not surprised to see her. Did she know that she was coming?

But Lamont was the one who sent her the message, so did they know each other?

Paige followed her into the house with doubt.

She was invited to sit on the sofa while Lucian poured her a cup of tea, but she did not drink it. She put the cup of tea on the table and said, "Aunt Lucian, do you Know Lamont? I came here because of his text message."

She smiled and said, "Miss Anderson, I sent the text message."

"You sent it? Why did you pretend to be Lamont?" Paige asked in surprise.

"I didn't pretend to be him. He called me and asked me to send you a message," Lucian explained.

"You know him?"

"Yes, I know him, and I even know why you are looking for him, She did not hide anything.

"Are you in trouble now? Did Liam reveal his cunning plans and hurt you? You were isolated and helpless, so you remembered Madam Natalie's words and looked for Lamont with the clues she left for you, right?"

"How did you know?" Paige was extremely shocked.

"Because I know that Liam is not a good person. I know that he would reveal his evil character sooner or later. I know that he would do horrendous things to you and Madam Natalie!"

She gasped for breath and continued saying, "Miss Anderson, I know that you will be very unhappy when you hear how I talk about Liam, but I have to tell you some things. You won't know how terrible he is if you haven't experienced it yourself."

If Liam didn't have a mistress and an illegitimate daughter, and if he had not taken actions against her, Paige would have been furious at Lucian for running her mouth and ruining their father-daughter relationship.

Instead, she listened calmly to her scolding without any emotion now.

She looked at her very calmly and replied, "I'm not unhappy. So, can you tell me what you know, Aunt Lucian?"

"Of course. Let's start with why I left Madam Natalie. Miss Anderson, you were still young then, so you probably don't know why I left the Anderson family, do you?"

Paige nodded. "Yes, I don't know, and my mother never mentioned it either."

"This is all Liam's fault. He set me up! I was already following your mother when he and your mother first got together. Your mother was a beautiful and noble person who was gentle and kind, but Liam was nothing compared to her. He was a cunning man who wanted her for her status and wealth, and he could do nothing other than being mean and shameless! I was highly against their relationship, but I was in a low position, so I could not control your mother's decisions. Therefore, I could only watch your mother marry him without being able to do anything."

Lucian sighed, "I had been secretly observing him after your mother married Liam. I always felt that he was evil and had some ulterior motives. At that time, your mother had always been in charge of the company and I was the one assisting her. He couldn't interfere with the company, so he schemed against me instead."

"How did he scheme against you?"
