Chapter 395

Paige thought she was in the way and tried to scoot back. Then she heard a pleasant voice say, “Paige.”
Paige looked up to see Baillie sitting in the backseat.
“Mr. Scott, you haven’t left yet?” Paige stood up, wearing a professional smile on her face.
Baillie looked at her and asked, “Have you been crying?”
Paige hesitated and wiped her eyes. “No…no, my eyes just get red easily when I drink too much. I’m fine.”
“It’s hard to catch a cab at this time. Get in, I’ll give you a lift,” Baillie said.

“In that case.” There was a hint of disappointment in Baillie’s eyes.
“Yes.” Paige’s face hurt from smiling
