The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 344

Paisley did not expect to hear news about Joseph today after arranging for people to investigate him yesterday.

She was shocked. "What's abnormal with him?"

"Joseph also went to the Halcyon Hotel last night and stayed there until ten o'clock in the evening. He was with Paige when he left. Early in the morning today, he took her to the hospital and waited there for less than an hour, then they went to the detention center."

"Why did they go to the detention center?" She asked.

"I don't know. They were there for about three hours, but I didn't dare to follow them too closely. After Joseph and Paige got off the car, I saw Gary and Gunnar welcoming them at the gate."

"What? You didn't see wrongly, did you?" Paisley was shocked.

"I'm not mistaken. I've known Gary and Gunnar for so many years. Although I can't say that I can recognize them anytime, but I can say for sure that I saw them yesterday,"

They continued, "Not only did they welcome Joseph and Paige, they were also very respectful towards them."

Paisley felt that it was impossible.

How could Joseph let the Branch Director and the Director of the Department of Justice welcome him?

This made no sense. She had only suspected him of hiding his skills and knowledge before. Was he also hiding his identity?

Paisley felt that she was out of her mind.


She pondered for a moment and said, "Why do you think they went to the detention center?"

"I don't know. There must be something wrong. However, criminal suspects are always locked up there. Did they go there to see suspects?"

"Suspects? Could it be..." She paused for a moment. "Do you know where Declan is locked up now?"

"I think he's in the detention center at the east of the city. A large number of media reporters are guarding there in order to get something for their headlines. What's wrong, Miss?"

"Nothing, I was just curious. You just made an important discovery. Good job! If you find any more useful information, I'll give you a great reward!"

Paisley hung up the phone and saw Hardy staring at her from the sofa. "What are you investigating?"

She did not hide anything from her own brother. "I sent someone to investigate Joseph. His behavior is a little abnormal."

"Do you have nothing else to do? Why did you send someone to investigate an incompetent and useless playboy?" He looked at her unhappily.

"Hardy, you can't be so snobbish. He's actually a good person." She was unhappy to hear what he said about Joseph.

"If he's a good person, why would he play around with women?" Hardy sneered.

"Paisley, I don't want to criticize you, but what else can Joseph do except exploiting women with his good looks? Don't be fooled by his looks! He's not a good man!"

"Hardy, I don't understand what you mean. If I follow your logic, then what is Paige? Any rich family's daughter is comparable to her! Why did you fall for her then?"

In the face of her questioning, he frowned.

"Women are different from men. Men need to feed their families. Are you sure that he can shelter you from any troubles if you marry him?"

"I don't need someone to shelter me from troubles. I can solve my own problems by myself."

Seeing that he could not agree with her, he shook his head and said, "Well, I don't want to talk about this anymore. What do you mean by 'the detention center'? Who went there?"

"Joseph and Paige went to the detention center, and the director of the sub-bureau came out to welcome them in casual clothes. Bro, what do you think of this?" He was also shocked to hear this. He frowned and thought for a moment. "Did they go to see the Declan?" Paisley immediately denied it, "Isn't he locked up in the east of the city? They did not go to that part of the city."

"That's not right! There must be a reason for this." Hardy shook his head.

"Yesterday, Declan made it clear that he wanted to plot against Paige, but why was he the one being set up in the end? She didn't have the ability to go against him, so there must be someone helping her. There's no way that Joseph is that powerful... Maybe he asked other people for help? He could have persuaded James and Aiden to help for his sake. But yesterday's incident was too weird! I have to arrange for someone to acquire information about it first."

In the Dawson family's estate, Hayden sat down on the sofa and read through the newspaper. He shook his head and sighed, "Declan is dead meat!"
