The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 305

Paige's face suddenly changed at this thought. If that was the case, then Isabella and her daughter were the murderers who had indirectly killed her mother.

Lucian saw the change in her expression and asked, "Miss Anderson, did you think of something?"

Paige nodded. She didn't know why, but she trusted Lucian even though they were not very familiar with each other. She told Lucian about her mother's situation before she died.

Lucian was shocked, "So she did not fall sick gradually? It was a sudden illness? That's not normal."

"Yes, even though she was in poor health before, she was only weak and had no other symptoms then. My father asked her to hand over the company responsibilities to him to reduce her load, so that she would have time to take care of her sick body. She only handed over the entire company later."

Paige recalled, "I accompanied my mother abroad, and we stayed there for about three months. She became very healthy during that time. She used to be out of breath simply from walking, but when we were abroad, she could even climb mountains as well."

"However, she started to feel dizzy again once she had returned to the mainland." Paige frowned.

"The doctor couldn't find anything wrong with her. However, I realised that the relationship between her and my father became a bit abnormal. They had always respected each other before, but they began to quarrel, and I heard it even though they tried to do it behind my back. Later on, my mother suddenly gave me all the shares and property under her name before she passed away."

Lucian looked serious after hearing Paige's story. "Something's wrong. There must be a reason behind her sudden change. Your mother trusted Liam so much, and even she entrusted the company to him and let him inherit her property back then. Why did she suddenly leave all her shares and property to you? She must have found out something."

"What do you think she found out?"

"She had the capabilities to deal with Liam quietly when she found out that he had been cheating on her, but she chose not to do so. What was her reason?"

Natalie was beautiful and talented, and she hated evil deeds. She also had the capabilities to manage a company. If she found that Liam had cheated on her, she would not tolerate him and would definitely deal with him.

However, Natalie didn't do that. Instead, the first thing she thought of was to make a will and left her property to Paige. This was not her style of doing things.

Did that mean that Natalie had no idea about Liam's affair?

Lucian thought about it but she could not figure anything out, "Miss Anderson, we can slowly look for evidence later regarding your mother's matters. Let's talk about the current matters at hand, why are you looking for Lamont? What do you want him to help you-with?"

"Actually, I don't know what he can do for me." Paige told her about the phone number she found in the interlayer of the safe.

Lucian immediately replied after hearing about the string of keys in Lucian's safe, "Those keys are the keys to the bank safe!"

"I thought so too, and I plan to check my mother's safe box information in the bank. However, I don't know why she left Lamont's phone number behind as well. Lucian, you know him, right? What do you think he can help me with?"

She smiled and said, "Lamont can protect you from being bullied."

"Just that?" Paige didn't believe it. She could simply find a bodyguard herself, why did it have to be Lamont?

"I'm joking. Your mother actually wanted you to find me, because you can find me once you find Lamont. He's my man."

"Your man? You and Lamont are husband and wife?" Paige looked at her in surprise.

"We're not husband and wife," Lucian shook her head. "We have been together for a long time, and we have a daughter who is one year older than you, but we are not married. Lamont and I are not considered a couple, and we can't get married for a certain reason."

Paige was stunned. They were not a married couple, but they had a daughter that was only a year older than her!

The relationship between Lucian and Lamont was too complicated!

Lucian smiled when she saw Paige's reaction, "Your mother knows about me and Lamont. She knows that my daughter is his child. I think she left the phone number so you could look for me through him, and I would be able to help you this way."

Her explanation was reasonable. At this point, Paige no longer hid her purpose for coming and told her about Liam's plan to steal her shares and property.
