The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 5

In the other presidential suite next door, Joseph took a sip of his tea after getting his work done.

He asked James casually, "What is she doing now?"

"She? You mean Miss Anderson? She ate most of the food prepared for her. Later she was shown to the suite to rest. The butler reported that she is now taking a bath and seems to be in a good mood!" James replied.

Hearing this, Joseph was amused, especially when he recalled her standing in the lobby with tears streaming down her face.

Seeing the smile on Joseph's face, James knew that he was in good mood now.

"As for Ethan and Liam, they must feel uncomfortable after being treated like that. Will they vent their anger on Miss Anderson?"

"Definitely!"

"If so, why do you still stand by Miss Anderson?" James was confused.

"I love to. Is there anything wrong?" Joseph replied calmly.

What had happened last night involuntarily occurred to him. He remembered everything included the way Paige hugged him with a blush and the petal-like red mark on the sheet.

Thought of that, Joseph felt a little bit hot, and he was surprised about it. He was well-behaved usually,

but now he lost his control when thinking about her just for a while.

Wasn't it too strange?

In the suite beside, Paige had a tight sleep and did not wake up until nine o'clock the next morning.

After she washed up, the breakfast was ready for her.

And the breakfast was excellent. After finishing it, Paige was about to leave But she suddenly remembered that she had not paid yet.

She still didn't understand why she could eat and live without paying money.

Weren't they afraid that she would leave without setting the bill?

However, Paige would never do that. So she went to the reception and checked the bill.

It costed 168,888 dollars for one night in the presidential suite with food free.

Though the price was extremely high, Paige did not mind it too much.

She felt she had got her money's worth.

She took the card out of her pocket and handed it to the cashier. The cashier looked up with a smile after checking her card and said, "I'm sorry, your card is frozen!"

Paige paused for a moment, then she handed another card to the cashier, but it was frozen as well.

In the end she found all her bank cards were frozen.

She did not expect that Liam would freeze her cards as punishment. Paige was exasperated, so she called Liam immediately. But he did not answer.

The cashier kept smiling at Paige, and Paige felt ashamed for that.

Now she was afraid that they would regard her as a freeloader for enjoying all these fancy things without paying money.

She would be a laughing stock if she could not pay the bill.

When she was in a dilemma, the door of the VIP Elevator was opened and Joseph walked out elegantly.

At the same time, Paige was standing at the reception with an anxious look, so he walked over to her and asked, "What happened?"

"It's him again!" Paige was filled with resentment and wondered if this man had a grudge against her and was trying to laugh at her.

The night before he had ruined her reputation, the morning before he had seen her crying in the street, and now he found that she had no money to pay for the bill.

Why could he always catch sight of her hapless moments?

Seeing Paige keep silent, the cashier told Joseph, "This lady's card has been frozen, so it might be a problem for her to make the payment now."

The cashier's words made Paige so embarrassed. She lowered her head with a deep blush. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Suddenly, the fascinating voice of the man sounded, "I’ll pay!"

Paige couldn't believe the man would offer to pay for the bill for her.

She looked up at him and found that he was looking at her too. He was perfectly charming with his dazzling eyes.

Being stared at by him, Paige felt more embarrassed. Before that, she hated him to the bone, but now she seemed to have a good impression of him, for it was he who had helped her out of trouble.

"We're talking about hundreds of thousands of dollars, and that's not a small amount of money." Paige said.

"I know!" The man picked up the pen and scrawled his name on the bill handed over by the cashier.

For some reason, Paige thought he was so attractive when he signed that he didn't look like a pimp at all.

Then Joseph put down the pen and walked away. After a few steps, he found Paige stood still blankly. He was amused by the way she looked and asked, "Aren't you going?"

Soon Paige nodded and kept up with him.

But she felt strange and questioned herself why she would follow this man who had slept with her.

It didn't make sense anyway.

When she walked out of the gate, she stopped the man and stammered, "I... I'll pay you back the money."

"Sure!" Joseph answered simply and took out his phone, "Shall we swap our Face_book accounts?"

Guessing that it might probably be more convenient for him to receive money via Face_book, Paige did not think twice but agreed.

Her profile photo was taken during a recent trip to Egypt. Dressed in a red dress and veil, Paige smiled back at the camera in the vast desert.

And she looked gorgeous like a fairy. After taking a careful look at the photo, Joseph squinted his eyes and asked, "Do you need a ride?"

Paige couldn't reject him since she had realized that she was penniless now.

Then she followed Joseph to the parking lot.

Seeing Joseph's Maybach, Paige was shocked. How could he be so rich as a pimp?

"You're really rich," she said what she was exactly thinking about.

"Not mine!" Joseph replied.

If so, did he mean one of those rich women whom he served?

He was one in a million with his perfect figure and appearance. So there must be a lot of rich women willing to spend money on him.

Thinking that this man had slept with countless old ladies, Paige felt a bit sick somehow.

But Joseph did not know what she was thinking at present, so he started the car and asked, "Where are we going now?"

"The Central South Building, please." Paige had to go to Liam's company and asked him why he froze her cards.

Then Joseph nodded and turned on the GPS Paige was surprised that he needed to use GPS to get there.

The Central South Building was just less than three kilometers away from the Wolf Group Hotel, and there were many places for shopping and entertainment around. Paige felt strange for him to use the GPS.

Wasn't he a local? But Paige did not say anything. After all, she wasn't familiar with him.

If it had not been for Sophia, they might still be strangers now.

Thinking that Sophia had utilized a pimp to set her up, Paige felt annoyed and upset. She wondered if this guy cooperated with Sophia throughout the whole process, or he knew nothing about Sophia's dirty trick and just took her money to finish his job.

"How about asking him?"

Paige considered for a while before she questioned, "How much did Sophia pay you for that night?"

"Who's Sophia?" Joseph asked.

"I... I mean... the woman who paid you and asked you to sleep with me that night." Joseph turned his head and looked at Paige emotionless, "I don't get it. What the hell are you thinking about?"
