Chapter 258
"Help! Help me, please!" She was shaking uncontrobly as she must be scared out of her wits.
"Ms. Anthony?" Lucas cried out in surprise.
Without hesitation, he opened the door and got out of the car.
Meanwhile, Joseph opened his eyes when he heard Lucas''s exim. Initially, he was going to continue
to doze through the minor ident.
It turned out that Paisley was the unkempt woman who had stopped the car. Shocked by the
realization, Joseph also got out of the car.
Paisley wasn''t looking like the decent and elegant youngdy as she should be. Her hair and her
clothes were in a mess, and even one of her shoes was missing.
When she saw Joseph, she lunged towards him and hugged him pleadingly, "Mr. Dawson! Please, help
me!"
"What happened?" Joseph asked stiffly. He didn''t expect Paisley to clutch onto him.
He wasn''t used to being held by other women like this. He wanted to push Paisley away, but she
tightened her arms around him as she was still trembling.
"Someone robbed me! They robbed me with knives... And they took all of my belongings! I escaped,
but mypanions are still there. Mr. Dawson, please save them!"
"Go and have a look!" Joseph gestured to Bobby, who immediatelyplied and he walked towards
the alley that Paisley had just run out of.
Around ten minutester, Bobby returned to them while carrying a passed-out woman on his back.
Once Paisley saw Bobby, she quickly let go of Joseph and ran towards him while shouting, "Danya!
Danya! Wake up!"
"Ms. Anthony, I think she''s passed out. We should bring her to the hospital first and let the doctor tend
to her!" Lucas said while he helped Bobby to get Danya into the car.
Then, everyone got into the car and they headed straight to the hospital.
On their way there, Danya regained consciousness. Still thinking that they were in danger, she began
yelling once she opened her eyes, "Help! Miss, run!"
"I''m here! Danya, I''m here!" Paisley said as she was grabbing Danya''s hands in an instant to assure
her.
"Are you alright, Miss?" Danya looked up and down at Paisley in concern.
"I''m fine. Thank goodness I ran into Mr. Dawson…. Danya, how do you feel? Hold on for a little more
while, okay? We''ll be at the hospital soon!"
"I''m fine... I''m only a little dizzy. That b*stard hit me in the head," After answering Paisley, Danya
suddenly remembered something, "Where is our luggage?"
"They took our luggage," Paisley sighed.
"What should we do now?" Danya was full of regret. "It''s all my fault..."
"At least both of you are safe. Let''s forget about the luggage for now and have a thorough checkup at
the hospital first," Lucas interjected.
"I''m fine. There''s no need to go to the hospital! It''s just that we lost our passports and our bank cards...
How are we going to survive in Sydney without money or a passport?"
Danya was worried sick, "Miss, you should call Sir Hardy right now. He can solve this."
"What can he do? Getting a new passport isn''t something that can be done in a day or two, Paisley
sighed. "Now, we can only find somewhere to stay for the night and go to the embassy to get a new
passport tomorrow. Oh, we also have to file a police report."
Indeed, requesting a new passport in a foreign country would take days. Besides, Paisley and Danya
were undoubtedly in dire need to get a ce to stay.
Lucas took a nce at Joseph and said, "Sir Joseph, it looks like Miss Paisley and her chaperone have
nowhere to go. Since there are so many rooms in the vi, why don''t we take them in? At least for
tonight? In that case, they''ll only have to worry about getting their new passports."
"Okay," Joseph nodded in agreement.
And thus, it was decided that Paisley and Danya were going back to the vi with Joseph. Meanwhile,
Paige had been ying games alone in the living room after she had dinner. When she finally heard
the engine of Joseph''s car, she got up and went to the door to wee him.
Not expecting that there would be guests,
Paige ran towards Joseph and threw herself into Joseph''s arms while acting cutely, Joseph, you''re
finally back! I''m so bored. I was going to call you if you were out any longer!"

Joseph wrapped his arms around Paige''s waist and pulled her into an embrace. He tapped lightly on
her nose and said, "I knew you would be bored. It''s okay, we''re going out tomorrow. Also, by the way,
we have guests!"
Upon hearing Joseph''s words, Paige turned to look at the car and asked, "Guests? Who''s that?" Then,
she saw Danya climbing out of the car awkwardly in the dim light.
Danya was Paisley''s butler. Paige didn''t recognize her, but she was stunned to see Paisleying out
of the car after Danya.
At first nce, she didn''t associate the ungroomed woman that she saw with Paisley, who was high
and mighty that she knew. She only felt that Joseph''s guest looked somewhat familiar.
Only at her second nce did Paige finally realized that she had been looking at Paisley.
It waspletely out of Paige''s expectation. She eximed, "Is that... Ms. Anthony?"
Paisley didn''t expect to see Paige here, and she was so ashamed to have Paige saw her in such a
state. She hoped that she could escape now.
However, Paisley had been through a lot of mishaps. So, she quickly calmed down and started to
exin, "Danya and I were robbed, Miss Anderson. Luckily for us, Mr. Dawson passed by and saved
us."
Joseph added, "I came across them on my way home from the office. Ms. Anthony and her chaperone
were robbed. They lost their passports and their other belongings to the robbers. But they''re
unscathed, for the most of it."
"Robbers? Oh my gosh, that''s scary! Ms. Anthony, are you all right?" Paige was baffled.
"I''m fine, although Danya is slightly injured," Paisley replied.
"Thank goodness! You must be so scared. Come in, quickly!" Although she was upset with Paisley''s
provocation previously, Paige still sympathized with Paisley''s misfortune in a foreign country. So, she
promptly invited Paisley and Danya into the house.
Paisley and Danya dlyplied and they went into the vi where the Dawsons'' maids hurried to
clean up a room for them.
When they were alone in the room, Paisley''s face darkened. She hissed, "I can''t believe Paige had the
audacity to follow Joseph here! Argh, I''m so pissed!"
Danya was also annoyed, "What''s Sir Hayden''s problem? Didn''t he arrange for you toe here to get
closer with Sir Joseph? What does he think you can do with Paige here?"
"Hayden probably didn''t know that Joseph would bring Paige with him."
"Well, what about Lucas? Is he dumb? He could have called to tell us!" Danya huffed.
"I don''t know. But I think Mr. Dawson is gonna give me an exnation," Paisley rubbed her temples in
exasperation. In fact, Hayden was the one who had nned the so-called mugging, hoping that Joseph
would bond with Paisley during her stay at the vi.
However, no one would have thought that Paige would be here.
And it upset Paisley to think that she even lost one of her shoes when she was running to make her
escape usible. However, she did manage to make a skin-to-skin contact when she threw herself into
Joseph''s arms forfort.
She remembered how good Joseph smelled, and it almost made her lose her mind when she was
wrapped in Joseph''s arms.
She was even thinking about ways she could get intimate with Joseph on their way back to the vi.
Since Joseph sought pleasure in women and she was so beautiful, Paisley was confident that she
would be able to get along well with Joseph once she made the first move.
However, Paisley realized that her fantasies wouldn''te true after seeing Paige. With Paige stuck
between Joseph and her, Paisley wouldn''t stand a chance to get close to Joseph.
She sighed in reluctance. She didn''t want to leave Sydney empty-handed like thest time they were
on the cruise ship.
Paisley was determined to turn the table. She wouldn''t just give up so easily.
Yet, regardless of what was going to happen next, Paisley could only take a shower for the time being.
Then, she would figure out how to deal with theing affairs.
