Paige distort the facts, he retorted in a gruff voice, “So what? As long as it’s my business, Loraine has free rein!”
Taken aback, Paige stammered, “Mr. Bryant, your staff acted on
Loraine’s command to evict guests. Doesn't that concern you? You are the CEO of the Bryant Group, and Loraine
is simply a partner group of yours!”
Looking her up and down with a furrowed brow, Marco retorted, “Who are you, anyway? Do we know each
other?”
Paige's face blanched as she yelled out in disbelief, “You don’t remember me?”

“Why should | remember you?”
Paige was left speechless, tears of resentment welling up in her eyes.
She had been standing in front of Marco for a considerable time, yet he didn’t have the faintest memory of her!
Her pride stung. At least Loraine could recognize her at a glance. And
Marco? What an annoying man he was!
The sight sent Loraine into fits of giggles.

Paige was as clueless as ever, despite their long separation.
A warmth seeped into Marco's icy expression as he watched Loraine’s smile.
Paige, misinterpreting the warmth as being meant for her, felt a rapid flutter in her chest.
Did he recognize her?
Given her stunning looks and influential background, forgetting her was out of the question for Marco. Perhaps

Due to her recent financial constraints and being kicked out of her family’s hin Bluhm, Paige's life had
becmiserable. If she could charm Marco, her father would surely pardon her and she could return home,
back to her Life of opulence.
Fueled by the desire to reclaim her past life, Paige plucked up the courage and fixed her hopeful gaze on Marco.
“Mr. Bryant, I'm Paige. I'm the daughter of the Johnathan family in
Bluhm. You were a guest at our tech expo, remember?”
Her reference to the technology exposition turned Marco's warm facade into a frosty mask.
In that instant, he recalled the identity of the woman standing before him.
He was astonished that Paige had the audacity to show up in Vagow and even bring up the technology
exposition.
