Chapter 16
Sophia was startled by Liam's sudden appearance, and she subconsciously took a look at Isabella.
Isabella didn't expect Liam to suddenly come over. Looking at Liam's unfriendly face, she squeezed out a smile and said, "Why are you here at this hour? Aren't you dealing with your company business?"
Liam did not answer Isabella's words and sat down on the sofa with a gloomy face. He looked at Sophia and said, "Do you know where Paige is now?"
"I have no idea!" Sophia was a little flustered.
Why did Liam ask where Paige was when he arrived? Did he suspect anything?
Isabella was much calmer than Sophia. She said with concern, "Liam, what's wrong with Paige?"
"She packed up her things and moved out yesterday. This b*stard actually left without telling me. I called her, but I couldn't get through. What does she mean?" Liam was a little uneasy. He was angry and worried, "Could something bad happen to her?"
Isabella's heart skipped a beat. She had thought that Liam would be angry for several days before asking about Paige. She did not expect Liam to worry about her after only ten hours.
Paige was dead and would never come back. Since Liam asked, she had to put the blame on Liam.
She thought, "Even if Liam finds out about Paige's death in time, he will have only himself to blame."
Isabella thought to herself and gave a sign, "I told you not to blame her, but you didn't listen. Now,
Paige must be very angry. She has a bad temper, and I'm afraid something bad will happen. Why don't you ask someone to look for her?"
"No way! She is so spoiled that she is unruly. If I go to find her, would she run wild? Sophia, help me to pay attention to the situation of that b*stard. Let me know if you have any news!"
"Okay, dad, I will pay attention to it." Sophia immediately agreed.
Liam sat for a while, asked about Isabella's situation, and then left.
After sending off Liam, Sophia quickly returned to the ward and said, "Mom, what should we do now?"
"D*mn it, anyway, the little b*tch has already dead, and your father will be sorry for what he has done! Then we'll put all the blame on him. It was he who beat the little b*tch, frozen her bank card, and drove the little b*tch out. Everything was done by him. What does it have to do with us?"
Looking at her mother's calm look, Sophia began to feel relieved.
At the clinic at the foot of the mountain, Paige felt refreshed after eating some food.
The doctor opened the door and gave her an anti-inflammatory drip while Joseph went out for a smoke.
After skillfully helping Paige hook up the drip, the doctor instructed Paige in a thick accent.
"The bruises on your body are very serious. The ointment I gave you is good for your bruise. Your boyfriend has already helped you apply it once in the morning. I will ask him to apply it for you later."
Boyfriend? Who was her boyfriend? Did the doctor refer to him?
He had actually applied ointment on her.
Didn't that mean that he had seen her naked?
Paige blushed and the doctor left. Lying in bed, she felt uncomfortable all over.
Half an hour later, Joseph pushed the door open after smoking a cigarette and came in.
He walked to the bed with a leisure look.
"It's about time. It's time for you to apply the ointment! It's not convenient for you to move. Let me help you!"
Paige's face turned red, "How can I bother you? Let the doctor help me to do it."
Joseph held the ointment and looked at her with a faint smile, "Are you sure you want the doctor to help you apply it?"
"I'm sure!" Paige answered firmly. Although she had slept with him, it was when she was unconsciousness. She couldn't bear being seen naked by him when she was awake. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"Well, I'II call the doctor right away." Joseph turned around and walked to the door.
Suddenly, he stopped and looked at Paige, "There's something I need to tell you. The hospital you're in is not a big one. It's just a private clinic at the foot of the mountain. There are only two male doctors
and nurses in the clinic who had just given you a drip. Are you sure you want him to apply ointment to you?"
