Chapter 158
Joseph did not say anything else and he just stared at Paige. Paige was flustered by his gaze. Did she go overboard?
But he had gone too far. Who did he think he was by setting her up like this? They weren't even a married couple! Who gave him the right to do that?
"I just can't be with you. Anyway, you don't lack women anyways, do you? Why are you holding onto me like that?"
"Alright. I will stop pestering you. Whatever you want to say, let it all out now," He took out a cigarette and lit it up.
Paige was a little confused by his attitude.
She paused for a moment and said, "So, you agree to break up?"
"Does it matter whether I agree or not?"
"Of course it's important. If you agree, that means you won't bother me anymore, right?"
"Sure, I won't bother you ever again." He nodded slowly.
He finally agreed!
But Paige didn't feel more at ease. Instead, she felt a heavy feeling in her heart. This was the outcome she wanted, but why wasn't she feeling any better?
"Remember what you said... That's all. I'm leaving!"
As she opened the door to leave, Joseph's voice came from behind her, "Your bag and phone!"
She turned around to take the phone and bag. When her fingers touched Joseph's, they were icy cold.
Paige could not help but glance at Joseph.
The man's face was gloomy and cold.
She had never seen Joseph like this, so Paige didn't dare to stay any longer. She took her pieces of stuff and hurried away.
Joseph stared at her as she left. He let out a mouthful of smoke and his eyes darkened.
The driver opened the door and got into the car, then he started the car and drove away slowly.
Along the way, Joseph kept smoking. The atmosphere inside the car was extremely uncomfortable due to the silence.
The car stopped at the gate of the villa and Joseph opened the door by himself. When he got out of the car, he suddenly asked, "Does she really hate me that much?"
The driver was one of the special forces soldier who had been following Joseph for more than eight years. He had never dated or understood women, so he answered honestly, "I think so."
After hearing his answer, Joseph slammed the door of his car shut. The bang was so loud that the driver was shocked.
He looked over and saw that Joseph had already entered the villa.
After working with Joseph for eight years, he had never seen Joseph so angry. Did he say something wrong?
But he was just telling the truth. Other women would jump on Joseph the moment they had the opportunity, but Miss Anderson was different. She always looked grumpy when Joseph was around.
Anyway, Joseph was definitely not happy.
The driver decided not to be so straightforward next time.
Ever since Joseph promised to not bother Paige again, he didn't call her nor text her.
Paige breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time, she became more irritated.
She found herself being too free, which allowed her to overthink everyday. So she decided to go look for a job.
It was very difficult to find a job. She had submitted a lot of resumes, but it all seemed useless.
Paige was extremely discouraged.
Although she was not a famous designer, she still had completed quite a lot of designs. How could
even a declining company look down on her?
Abbie said that they needed to go out to have fun more as Paige looked bad and it must have something to do with bad luck.
Paige was kind of traumatized after what happened at Climax Space that night, so she was afraid that the same thing might happen again.
She refused to go out. That night, Abbie's friend had a birthday party so she dragged Paige out of the house.
Abbie's childhood friend held the birthday party at a nightclub called Tango Pub. They reserved a very huge private room.
Paige drank two glasses of wine and she felt a little dizzy. She then got up and she went out to have some fresh air. She didn't expect to bump into Ethan at all!
When Ethan saw Paige, he immediately stopped her and said, "I’ll bring you to see someone."
"Who?"
"Joseph Dawson!"
