Chapter 403
“Granny, I’ll come visit you some other time,” Baillie said softly.
“Great,” Granny Owens looked at Baillie, very satisfied.
He was good-looking, polite, and seemingly well-off. If he was of good nature, he’d be an excellent husband material.
Paige quickly led Baillie out of the ward.
“Thank you for walking me out,” Baillie stopped walking.
“Alright, Mr. Scott, thank you so much for your help today,” Paige maintained her professional smile.
Baillie looked at her, his eyes inscrutable. “You’re welcome. Have you thought about what you’ll treat me to?”
Paige was momentarily stunned, recalling that she had agreed to treat Baillie to a meal earlier.
“What would Mr. Scott like to eat?” Paige asked with a grin.
She was actually quite nervous. There was definitely something off about this guy!
“Alright,” Baillie nodded.
Paige thought he would leave, but suddenly, he lifted his hand and tucked a loose strand of her hair behind her ear. His fingers were warm, gently brushing her cheek.
“Paige, next time someone does something you don’t like, you can fight back with confidence. There’s always someone to help you.”
Paige was taken aback.
Baillie smiled, raised his hand, and gently tapped her forehead with his knuckle. “I’m leaving now.”
“I just asked if that guy was Paige’s boyfriend,” Kelsey repeated.
Logan, wearing a cold expression: “No.”
“Well, I thought Paige had started dating.” Kelsey mumbled, “Aunty Peyton has always been worried about Paige’s love life. If that gentleman just now was her boyfriend, Aunty Peyton would be thrilled.”
Logan pursed his lips, not responding. He had just seen that guy help Paige fix her hair, looking quite intimate. And Paige didn’t avoid it.
Logan felt very anxious.
“Well, Paige still looks very angry. I wonder what she’s planning to do next,” Kelsey looked worried, “My mom just called, and I haven’t told her about this whole thing yet.”
“The surveillance footage is gone, so there’s no evidence, no matter what she wants to do. Don’t worry,” Logan quickly returned to his usual demeanor.
Kelsey nodded: “Logan, I’m so glad you’re here with me to deal with this. I don’t know what I would have done otherwise.”
