Chapter 395
When Hayden left, Paige sat on the sofa dazedly with tears streaming down her face.
She didn't believe that her mother would do such a mad thing to a pregnant woman!
She would not believe it!
What happened then must have been a misunderstanding. Lamont might know what really happened.
Paige wiped her tears and took out her phone. She dialled Lamont's number and he answered in a few seconds. Lamont's tone was soft as he asked, "Is there anything I can help with, Miss Anderson?"
"Uncle Saunders, I need to ask you something Do you know how Joseph's mother died? You must know the reason, right?"
Paige was sobbing as she said this, the tremble in her voice was evident. Lamont knew that Hayden had told her what happened.
He sighed and said, "Yes, I know the reason. Joseph's mother was pushed by President Garcia, and she died due to excessive bleeding."
"Impossible! Why would my mother do something like that to a pregnant lady? I don't believe it!"
"Yes, it's true that she wouldn't do that to a pregnant woman. That was just an accident, but it's true that Joseph's mother died from it. Miss Anderson, I advise you to let go of Joseph." Lamont sighed.
"I can't give up on him! Do you understand?"
"I understand! But I don't think Joseph is that simple-minded. Miss Anderson, I suspect... I suspect that he already knows the truth behind his mother's death, and the reason for getting close to you is because he wants to seek revenge."
"Do you have any evidence?" Paige did not believe it.
It was just ridiculous for Joseph to seek revenge like that!
Ever since she met Joseph, he had always helped her unconditionally without asking for anything in return. Not even once!
"The evidence is that he is the president of Wolf Group! He hid his real status from you! With that high and mighty status, how could he be true to you? Other than to seek revenge, I can't think of any other reason!"
"Is he really the president of Wolf Group? Are you kidding?" Paige asked.
Joseph had told her that he was the president of Wolf Group when he proposed to her at the villa by the seaside. But she did not pay any attention to that, nor did she think that it was true. And now, Lamont was saying the same thing. Was it true? Paige was shocked to the core.
"I'm not kidding. He's really the president of Wolf Group! James Field is his employee. Did you really think that Aiden and James lent him 100 billion dollars? Why would they lend him so much money if he were just a loafer?"
"Even so, he didn't do anything bad to me! He has always been helping me!"
"Miss Anderson, don't you feel any hurt and in pain? When you heard the truth, aren't you in agony? This is exactly what he plans to do. To make you experience this pain and make you feel as hurt as possible."
Paige's phone fell to the floor weakly. She had to admit it, if this was really Joseph's goal, he had succeeded.
Without Joseph, living would be worse than death. She could not live without him.
"God, why are you doing this to me?"
When Paisley saw Hayden leave to look for Paige, she went home too. On her way home, thoughts kept running through her mind.
She had suspected that Joseph's identity wasn't that simple. She had instructed someone to keep eyes on him for quite a long time, but she could not find anything fishy about it. But after listening to the conversation between Lucas and Hayden, she couldn't help but be sure that there was something more to Joseph.
Lucas told Hayden that Joseph did not use the money given to him for quite a while. He had no other sources of income, and he didn't use the money that Hayden gave him.
So how did he keep up with his expenditure?
She remembered how Wolf Group and Hattelo Group had helped Paige's company when she was in
trouble. If Aiden helped because she was Abbie's best friend, she could understand it. But for James to help Joseph, it was just hard to believe.
100 billion dollars was a large sum. Why would James take out so much money to help Joseph if he were just an idle loafer?
There must be another reason behind this.
She thought of the mysterious president of Wolf Group who had never shown his face in public.
Paisley's heart jolted. "Could Joseph be the president of Wolf Group?"
If that were true, then everything would make sense. James Field wasn't the one who wanted to help Paige, it was Joseph. He only helped in the name of James.
Having this thought in mind, Paisley was extremely excited. She had to get to the bottom of this. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
The president of Wolf Group had never shown up, so it was difficult to prove it.
She suddenly remembered the annual event that Wolf Group had held previously. The president had recorded a video and it was played for everyone to see.
Paisley's eyes lit up. Wasn't this evidence she was looking for?
She parked her car in front of the door and rushed inside.
Hardy was watching the financial news in the living room when Paisley rushed in like a breeze. "What
has gotten into you?"
"Bro, I may have discovered the most surprising news of the year."
"What do you mean?"
"I won't tell you now. I'll have to confirm it first!"
Paisley entered the study room and turned on her computer. She searched for the VCR that had footages of the president of Wolf Group and started comparing the voice and figure of the person in the video with Joseph.
The president's voice was very different from Joseph's, but the height was the same.
This was an astonishing discovery. Paisley started comparing the pictures one by one.
Finally, there was a picture of the president of Wolf Group wearing an expensive watch. It was a limited edition watch that was worth 10 million dollars.
There were only three of them in the whole world. Hardy and the son of Archer Saunders, Raymond Saunders, each had one. Joseph also had the same watch, so what did this say?
This meant that Joseph was the president of Wolf Group!
"Ah!" Paisley cried out in surprise. She was ecstatic about learning about this.
Hardy heard her scream and thought something had happened to her. He quickly rushed to her room
and opened the door.
"What's wrong?"
Paisley danced and waved her hands in excitement. "Hardy! I know Joseph's secret now! He is the president of Wolf Group! He is that mysterious president!"
"Did you get hit in the head?" Hardy sneered and said. He would never believe that Joseph, a rich second-generation loafer would be Wolf Group's president. This was a great joke!
"There's nothing wrong with me! Look at his watch. Do you see it? The president of Wolf Group is wearing the exact same watch as Joseph!"
Hardy looked at Paisley in disbelief as if he had seen a ghost. "Just because of a stupid watch, you say that Joseph is the President of Wolf Group!”
"No, there are only three of this watch in the entire world. One is with you, another is with Raymond Saunders, and the last one is with the president of Wolf Group. And Joseph is the one wearing it now. Isn't this proof enough? He must be the president of Wolf Group!"
Hardy stared at Paisley for a moment as if he were looking at a fool. He then slowly said, "Paisley, I don't want to ruin your mood, but I have to tell you something. Raymond Saunders is Joseph's nephew. You might not know this, but Raymond gave it to Joseph a long time ago."
"What?" The smile on Paisley's face froze.
