The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 2

Paige's eyes glistened with anger when she saw Sophia, "Here you are. I was about to get even with you. So, why did you set me up last night?"

"What are you talking about? Who set you up?" Sophia pretended to be innocent cheekily.

"Paige, you can't slander Sophia. She's such an obedient girl. How could she frame you?" Isabella said.

"You deny it? You think I don't know what to do with you two?" Paige was totally infuriated by the shameless mother and daughter. So, she raised her hand and slapped hard on Sophia's face.

However, Sophia did not avoid the slap.

She felt a burning pain on her face and tears soon streamed down from her eyes.

Viewing such a scene, Isabella grabbed Paige's wrist and asked, "Paige, why did you hit Sophia? She did nothing wrong!"

Then she showed no mercy and pinched hard on Paige's wrist secretly.

Paige felt extremely painful and pushed Isabella away at once. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

This was the moment Isabella had been waiting for. She hit her head on the tea table as she fell, and blood began to flow from her wound.

"Mom! What happened? Paige, how can you do this to my mother?" Sophia screamed loudly.

After getting dressed, Liam opened the door and saw Isabella lying on the ground. He was startled, so he ran to check, "Isabella, are you all right?"

"I'm fine, but Sophia.." At Isabella's words, Liam turned his head to Sophia and saw five distinct fingerprints on her face.

Liam asked angrily, "What's wrong with your face?"

"Liam, don't blame Paige. She was just too emotional." Isabella, the scheming b*tch, was pretended to plead for Paige.

She glanced at Sophia when she spoke.

Sophia knew what to do next and looked at Liam with tears, "Daddy, it doesn't matter that I was hit by Paige, for this isn't the first time anyway. But don't leave my mother alone, please. Would you let Paige keep threatening her?"

Paige was even more confused and asked Sophia, "What did you say? What do you call my father?"

"I said ‘daddy’." Sophia replied.

"Ashely, don't!" Isabella stopped her immediately.

"Dad, how long are you gonna keep this secret? Even if you don't consider for my mom, you have to think about me, right? Do you want me to live with the shame of being an illegitimate daughter for my

whole life?" Sophia did not listen to Isabella this time and she continued to cry and complain.

Under this circumstance, Liam was very angry but had no idea. In fact, the truth could no longer be concealed, and it was time for him to tell Paige.

Then he said to Paige, "Paige, actually Aunt Isabella and I have been together for a long time. And Sophia is also part of our family. She is your sister!"

"What?" Paige was completely dumbfounded. She looked at Liam in shock.

A trace of guilt appeared on Liam's face, "Paige, it's all my fault. Isabella was pregnant when Your mother and I got married. I didn't know that she gave birth to Sophia. And I owe them too much. I didn't tell you because I was afraid that you would be unhappy. Now that we've talked about it today, we're family from now on…" Paige listened to Liam and angrily interrupted him, which was totally unacceptable to her.

"Dad, how could you say that? A family? I'm telling you, I'm at daggers drawn with them, now and forever!"

Paige had pissed Liam off for what she said.

Liam stared at her and said seriously, "Paige, call them Aunt Isabella and Sister Sophia from now on! And I don't want to hear any rude words coming out of your mouth anymore!"

Isabella continued to pretend to be gentle and virtuous in front of Liam, so she said, "Liam, don't force her if she doesn't want to. Sophia and I have already suffered for all the past years and it's okay for us to suffer for a bit longer. I know that you had been through tough time these years…"

Her words touched Liam's heart indeed.

For a long time in the past, he had behaved like a good man, obediently obeying Paige's mother, Natalie Garcia. Now he could finally act on his own since Natalie had past away already.

Thinking of this, Liam glared at Paige and said angrily, "Whether you are willing or not, you have to accept the fact that Sophia is your sister. And I tell you now, they will live with us in no time!"

Hearing Liam's words, Isabella and Sophia looked at each other with joy. Moving into the Anderson's villa was what they had been dreaming of all the time.

Paige was furious for what Liam said. It was definitely intolerable to see Liam take his mistress and illegitimate daughter to live with her.

So she retorted, "My mother owned the villa. You have no right to let them in. Don't you feel ashamed?"

What Paige said made Liam extremely mad. He did not think twice and slapped Paige, "How dare you talk to me like that?

Paige felt her face burning with severe pain. She covered her face and looked at Liam in disbelief. "You hit me? For this shameless mistress?"

Being stared at by Paige, Liam felt a bit guilty. But he was indignant when he thought how she embarrassed him.

"So what? Why can't I hit you? I'll kick you out if you are still arrogant!"

At first, Paige came here to get even with Sophia, not expecting to spot her father's affair. What's worse, she found out that her father actually had an secret love affair over the years.

Not long after Natalie passed away, Liam began to stand up for the shameless mother and daughter and hurt her. Paige could not accept it at all and ran away in tears.

Witnessing Paige beaten by Liam, Isabella and Sophia looked at each other with complacency.

They thought that this was just the beginning, and there was more to come for her.

Paige was wailing sadly when walking along the road, attracting attention from the passers-by.

A limo came slowly and the bodyguard who was driving the limo felt surprised to see Paige crying on the road, "Young Master Joseph, look, isn't that the woman last night?"

Hearing this, the exalted man in the back seat opened his eyes and looked over. When he noticed Paige drowning in tears, he frowned and ordered the driver to stop the car.

A white handkerchief was delivered to Paige when she was crying her heart out down the street.

She lifted her tearful eyes and found the man who had slept with her last night was looking down at her condescendingly with a handkerchief in his hand.

Realizing she was facing the dirty pimp again, Paige felt irritated and roared, "Get out of my way!"

However, the man turned a deaf ear to her scolding and reached out his hand to wipe the tears for

Paige. He asked her in a very gentle voice, "What happened?"

"It's none of your business! B*stard!" Paige grabbed the handkerchief, threw it on the ground and ran away with tears.

The bodyguard was very worried when he saw what Paige had done to his boss. So he got off the car and walked to Joseph, "Young Master..."

Joseph wasn't angry at all. He calmly picked up the handkerchief and ordered the bodyguard, "Let’s go to the company!"
