CEO's Mysterious Fiancee (Paige and Martin) novel Chapter 58

Chapter 58

Take Great Pains

After the meal, Killian showed Parge around and finally took her to the top floor to look into the distance.

“It’s dark and we can’t see things too far away. It looks even better during the day. Beautiful flowers, plants, streams, and tall

mountains in the distance can all be seen. Paige, you must come and take a look when you are free.”

“Okay”

Paige looked at the time and said in a soft voice, “It’s getting late. I should go back.”

“No.

Killian somewhat didn’t want Paige to leave. “Why don’t you stay a little longer?”

“I will come to see you again next time”

Seeing Paige was about to leave, Killian hurriedly winked at Neil. Neil immediately got it and ordered people to get ready.

Led by Martin, Paige just got to the living room on the first floor when the lights of the whole villa suddenly dimmed down.

“What is going on?”

Killian pretended to know nothing and asked, “Why is there a sudden power outage?”

“It’s really strange. In all the years we’ve lived here, we’ve never seen anything like this! I will go and see what is wrong. Don’t worry. I

will be back soon.”

Neil pretended not to know anything and quickly went down

“Martin, take Paige to the sofa to sit for a while

Killian turned around and ordered the servants at the side, “Go and get some candles and emergency lights.”

“Mr. Stowe, don’t you have some beautiful emergency lights in your collection?”

A servant asked, in a pre-agreed manner

“Oh, yes! But where did I keep them? Let me go and have a look.”

Killian also found an excuse to leave.

Only Martin and Paige were left in the huge living room.

The corners of Martin’s lips curled up and he knew the villa clearly had a power generation assembly, so even if the power went out, it

shouldn’t be all dark

Martin thought, is Grandpa deliberately giving Paige and me a chance to be alone?

Paige waited for a long time and looked at the time. “It is half past eight. Let’s go.”

Paige was afraid that her parents would be worried if she went back too late

Martin took Paige into his arms. It’s still early. Stay with me for a while longer.”

“I have been with you for such a long time today, haven’t I?”

“It’s only been a few hours. It’s not enough.”

Martin held Paige more tightly. “I want to stay with you for a while longer”

Paige didn’t know what to say.

Paige thought, why is this guy so clingy?

He was clearly very cold in the past.

“Let go, your grandpa will see.

“He will be happier if he sees it.”

Upstairs

Neil, who was hiding in the comer, saw that Killian was being helped upstairs and hurriedly whispered, “Mr. Stowe, over here!”

Killian quickly walked over and squeezed into Neil’s side to look downstairs. “How is it? How is it going?”

“The two of them are just talking, but not making any real progress.”

“Martin, this blockhead! It’s so dark Why doesn’t he kiss Paige?”

Killian thought for a moment and said, “Could it be that it’s not romantic enough? Have someone take down those emergency petal

lights and LED candles.”

“OK.”

Soon, the living room was decorated with beautiful petal lights and LED candles were placed on other tables, creating a romantic

atmosphere.

“Wait a minute.”

Paige called out to one of the servants who was arranging the candles, “Tell Mr. Stowe I’m going back.”

The servant was suddenly at a loss when facing this sudden situation. ‘Miss, the power’s out. Why don’t you stay a little longer?”

“It’s too late.”

“But the gate is locked. You can’t get out.”

Paige went speechless.
