Chapter 969


    Baillie grabbed a mint from his bedside table, peeled it, and threw it into his mouth. The coolness


    couldn’t suppress the anger and annoyance in


    his heart.


    He thought, maybe he should just silently get rid of those people.


    Their bodies wouldn’t be found by anyone.


    Seeing that he didn’t reply, Paige sent another message: “I’ll have a week free after mid-next month,


    wanna go stargazing again?”


    Property belongs to N?vel(D)r/ama.Org.


    Baillie sighed softly.


    Life is so long, how could he guarantee that Paige wouldn’t find out he’d gotten rid of those people?


    If she found out, she’d be scared of him….


    He replied with an “OK.”


    Paige was distracted tonight.


    After replying to Baillie’s message, she continued to lie in bed staring at the ceiling in a daze.


    A momentter, her phone rang.


    She subconsciously thought it was Baillie calling.


    When she picked it up, it was an unfamiliar number.


    She didn’t even think about it and just hung up.


    But the other party quickly called again.


    After thinking about it, she decided to listen to what the other person wanted.


    As soon as the call connected,


    She didn’t say anything, and the other person was also silent.


    Perhaps this silence was somewhat familiar, Paige suddenly realized who it might be on the other end.


    “Don’t hang up!” Logan’s voice rang out, with a hint of urgency.


    “What’s up?” Paige asked coldly. “I thought I told you not to bother me anymore.”


    “I know, this time it’s about Aunty Peyton Logan said in a low voice.


    “What happened to her?” Paige asked, her tone somewhat cold.


    They had just talked on the phone today, and she sounded fine.


    Logan sighed, “My dad has the other woman, and he had an argument and scuffle with Aunty Peyton


    tonight…”


    Upon hearing this, Paige immediately sat up.


    “She fell and sustained a head injury, but don’t worry, I’ve already apanied her to the hospital. The


    wound is not severe, and it has been stitched up,” the person reassured.


    “Has Grant lost his mind?” Paige scolded angrily, “He’s letting my mom scam money from me while


    cheating and being abusive? Does he want to die?”


    “Calm down.” Logan’s tone was very gentle as he coaxed Paige, “I called you not to make you angry…


    I tried to persuade your mother to divorce, but she doesn’t want to, so I thought…”


    Paige was stunned, “When did you try to convince her?”


    “Just now…” Logan replied helplessly


    “She still doesn’t want to divorce after being hit and finding out her husband has the other woman?”


    Paige asked.


    Logan remained silent


    Paige’s anger faded in an instant.


    She licked the tip of her tongue against her canine tooth andughed, “Well, let’s respect her choice


    then You don’t have to call me to tell me how she’s doing. I don’t care.”


    With that, Paige was about to hang up, but Logan didn’t want to.


    He felt like he hadn’t talked to Paige in a century


    “Wait!”


    “What else do you want to say?” Paige asked coldly


    “You just said, my dad asked your mother to scam you for money? Logan asked seriously, “What do


    you mean?”


    “It means exactly what it says” Paige answered.


    “How much did she scam? When did this happen?” Logan continued to inquire


    Paigeughed. “Over seven million. Why are you asking so many details? Do you want your dad to pay


    me back?”


    Logan was stunned for a moment.


    “If he refuses to repay, then we have nothing more to discuss Goodbye, Paige tersely responded


    before abruptly ending the call. Without hesitation, she proceeded to block his phone number.
