Chapter 55
Write Your Name
Abbigail was so jealous that she couldn’t help smearing Paige, “She was in there for so long. Who knows what they did inside? I hope it wasn’t something despicable.”
“Abbigail!”
Lindsey had a theory. Yet Killian’s bodyguards were in front of them, and the Tate family would be in trouble if they heard Abbigail’s words.
Abbigail bit her lower lip and looked at Paige’s back unwillingly.
Abbigail wished she were the one holding Killian.
Fifteen minutes passed.
The car arrived in front of a quiet and elegant villa.
It was Killian’s residence, occupying at least 100 thousand square feet.
The black undulating tiles were paired with whi*e outer walls, giving off a faint ancient fragrance. The wooden railings and windows looked grand, and the roof was cornice shaped. The whole villa had a symmetrical design, which made it look even and stable.
The villa was both a bit classical and graceful. Since it was surrounded by a clear stream, it was called
“Riverside Villa”.
“Paige, we are home!”
Killian was in high spirits and offered warmly. “Let’s go and sit in the yard. I’ll get someone to serve us some great tea. Do you have any desserts you like? I’ll have them cooked right now.
“I’m fine, Killian.”
Paige smiled and said obediently, “I have to go back to work, so I won’t go in.”
Killian was immediately dejected. “Are you leaving so soon?”
“Mrs. Stowe, you are already at the door. Why don’t you **the office today?”
Neil was also fond of Paige very much and tried his best to persuade her, “Why don’t you go inside and take a
break? You may have some tea and grab a few bites.”
“I have to deal with something at the company.
“I’ll take a rain check,” Paige said gently.
“When will you be getting off work? I will ask Martin to pick you up…” Although Killian was reluctant to see Paige leave, he did not want to delay her either. “Come here for dinner tonight and chat with me, OK?”
“Mr. Stowe has not fully recovered yet. Mrs. Stowe, it will be better if you can keep an eye on him…” While saying, Neil hurriedly winked at Killian.
“Ouch! My heart. “Killian started to act right away “Paige, maybe you should check up on me tonight I’m still feeling a bit uncomfortable here. He even coughed after finishing speaking.
Paige saw through his clumsy and exaggerated acting, yet she did not expose him. The corners of her lips curled up as she said. “Alright then.”
“Great! Then what do you like to eat? I’ll tell those in the kitchen to get them ready”
While saying that, Killian realized that he sounded too excited. He pretended to cough a few more times and continued in a weak tone, “Is there anything you aren’t supposed to eat?”
“No.”
“A simple meal will do. There’s no need to go through a whole lot of trouble,” Paige said while blinking.
looking stunning.
“OK.”
Killian was so happy that he looked like a child Then I’ll ask Ryker to send you to the company Come back together with Martin after work.”
“Alright.”
After Paige left, Killian was high-spirited again at once and asked with a smile, “Well? My acting was
flawless, wasn’t it?”
Neil stretched out his thumb and index finger and said, “It was just a little bit showy
“Really?”
Killian looked in the direction where the car had left. Then I’ll try to restrain myself more next time.
Killian then entered the villa.
He took out his phone and called Martin. His attitude was very unyielding.
“I don’t care what urgent business you have. You must pick Paige up from work tonight and come to dinner
with me.”
“OK”
To his surprise, Martin, who was on the other end of the line, said yes at once without thinking at all.
Killian was stunned
He thought, how come he says yes so readily?
Did I hear him wrong?
“I’m warning you. Paige is the only granddaughter-in-law I have my eyes on. Don’t think about playing any
