Chapter 195 The Reason to Keep Going

Paige sat opposite Leo and poured herself a cup of coffee. A sneer appeared on

her face. "I'm not gonna accept a woman who loves to cause a ruckus and turn

our family upside down. Sure, our family might not be top-tier, but we're not

letting just any hick into the family!"

Leo fixed Paige with a cold, piercing stare. He enunciated each word deliberately.

"I've never even brought Miley up to you. How come you not only know she exists

but also know all about her background?"

Paige was taken aback.

Suddenly, she realized it was fishy that she knew so much about Miley. She

should've had no clue about Miley.

Cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

But she was no fool. Her eyes darted around for a moment, and then she quickly

came up with an answer. "Um, it was..."

"Did Ezra tell you?"

Paige nodded frantically. "Yeah, yeah. Ezra told me."

like her? How could she ever be good enough for you, the son of a professor?

I went out on a sudden errand. Oh, I remember! I said I wanted to go home that

day, and you asked me to get your favorite sandwiches from that shop early in the

morning."

As Leo talked, he attempted a half-hearted smile, but it twisted his face into a

grimace that was far more pitiful than a sob. "I got out of the hotel bed at six in the

morning. Drove for almost an hour round-trip to that sandwich place to get you

those sandwiches. I was even planning to pick up Miley around seven and take

her back to meet you."

Paige just sat there, mute as a fish, not a single word coming out of her mouth.

"When I got back to the hotel, Miley was gone. She took off so fast that she didn't

even leave me a note or anything. I was left there, totally confused."

Leo fixed Paige with a mocking stare. "Then, later on, I found out the truth. You

were the one who told Ezra to go to her and say that there were a bunch of

women all over me, and that I was only with her because she was this pure,

fresh-faced girl."
