Chapter 90
Do You Like Martin?
At 11:30 p.m., Paige finally returned to L*rsen Villa.
“Paige, are you back?”
Patricia, who was about to go downstairs, saw Paige go upstairs. There was a gust of wind, and several h*ck*ys on
Paige’s neck were
reflected in Patricia’s eyes.
Patricia’s heart seemed to be hit by a blunt weapon, making her feel pain. She found it unbelievable.
“Paige, why are you back so late? Did you go out with Martin?”
Although Patricia knew that Paige was likely to be with Martin, seeing the h*ck*ys on Paige’s neck, she still could not
accept it!
Martin was celibate. How could he kiss Paige so passionately?
Paige must have seduced Martin!
“Paige, although our family hasn’t made a rule, you have to come back early. Otherwise, people will say that we
weren’t properly
brought up.”
“Do you like Martin?” Paige raised her eyes and asked lightly.
“I… Of course, I do not like him…” Patricia lowered her head and denied it, not daring to look into Paige’s eyes.
Patricia was not afraid of Paige. She was afraid that Paige would tell their parents. Even though she liked Martin, she
wouldn’t admit it in front of Paige.
“Then keep your distance from him.”
Paige’s tone was indifferent. Patricia didn’t know whether she was angry or not. “Mind your own business.”
“Paige…”
Patricia watched Paige go upstairs step by step and could not help but clench her fists.
Paige was just a rude girl who grew up in a small place. How could she talk to Patricia like this?

When Paige returned to her bedroom, her phone suddenly vibrated. It was Jairo.
“Boss, Snowbush Gang’s problems have been solved. In addition, I have got some clues as to the cause of the fire
at Sam Clinic on September 10, 18 years ago.
“The cleaner who picked up Abbigail and raised her is named Dolores Petersen. She once told her good friend that
it was raining that night. The roads were not good at that time. When there was heavy rain, many places would be
waterlogged.
“It was about 2 a.m. Dolores and a few cleaners cleaned the ga*bage on the roads and beside the manhole covers
to drain waterlogged fields. Not long after, they suddenly heard a deafening explosion.
“Then, the explosions came one after another. At first, Dolores did not dare to approach. When she was about to
save someone, she saw a few unlicensed black cars leave in the opposite direction.
“In that era, very few people had cars in that place… I think that the fire must have something to do with those
cars.”
“Who were they? Why did they burn the clinic?” Paige asked, narrowing her eyes.
“I also find it strange… At that time, Dolores was busy saving people, so she didn’t think too much about it. If she
saw the people in the cars or their characteristics, it would be easier to investigate.
“But Dolores is quite miserable now.”
“What?”
Paige raised her eyebrows.
Wasn’t Dolores Abbigail’s adoptive mother?

Although Abbigail had returned to the Tate family, Dolores had worked so hard to raise Abbigail. How could she
have a miserable life?
“After Abbigail returned to the Tate family, the Tate family gave Dolores 16 thousand dollars, but Dolores did not
take it. She just
wanted to see Abbigail when she was free, but Abbigail refused and did not want to have anything to do with her.
“Dolores went to the Tate’s house a few times, but she was driven away by the s*rvants. Now, her health is poor
and she has no
income. She has no children and no family to take care of her. She is quite pitiful.”
“Abbigail is ungrateful.”
Paige knew Abbigail well. Her past identity would only make her feel embarrassed. She would rather kick Dolores
away and go to the
upper society!
“There’s another strange thing. The higher-ups of the clinic are missing, and the archives room is ruined.
“Now we can only try to find some useful clues from Dolores and the other rescuers. But you have to be ment*lly
prepared. It may take a long time.”
“I see.”
When Paige said this, her phone vibrated. It was Martin. “I have to hang up.”
After chatting with Martin for a while on the phone and taking a shower, Paige went to bed.
In her dream, Paige seemed to return to the Tate family. She saw a little girl holding Lindsey’s hand and asking with
tears in her eyes, “M*m, when will you come back next time?”
“Paige, what do you want? Your father and I are busy every day. Do you think we have nothing to do? How could
you ask us to see you when you have a fever of 39°C?”
The young Paige felt wronged and sobbed in a low voice, “I didn’t…”
“You told your grandmother, so your grandmother called us and forced us to come back! Do you know that the
project was ruined after we came back?”
“Enough. She is still a child.”
Tyrell tried to smooth things over.
“Sh*t up!
Lindsey angrily said, “Have you ever seen a child who used her elder to deal with us at such a young age? Look how
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmyour m*m loves her! Paige, listen, the more you are like this, the more I ha*e you! Stop crying! It’s so annoying!”
Seeing Lindsey open the door and leave, Tyrell hurriedly followed her. “Don’t do this… Paige doesn’t know that her
grandfather left the company to us after he passed away. So many people in the company want to kick us out and
secretly make things difficult for us… Paige just missed us.”
“She’s such a jinx. She always ruins our plans. Give us a carefree life if she can. What else can she do except cry?”
The young Paige wiped her tears, as if she had made a decision. If she became more outstanding and helped her
family make money, then her parents wouldn’t need to work so hard, right?
And they would like Paige, right?
Paige became outstanding with the help of several grandfathers. Then, she knew that Cassie and Lindsey were not
in a good relationship, and they turned against each other because of the equity…
Lindsey didn’t like Cassie. Every time Cassie helped Paige, Lindsey would h*te Paige even more…
Chapter 90 Do You Like Martin?
What was worse, Lindsey felt that Paige was a jinx. Every time she came back, there would be something wrong
with her work, so she
did not want to return to this home.
These years, Tyrell and Lindsey had only returned home a few times. The feelings between them and Paige faded.
In the past, Lindsey did not like to see Paige cry. Slowly, Paige became a child who would not cry. In the eyes of
outsiders, she was
somewhat cold and unreasonable.
After an unknown period in her dream, Paige opened her eyes again. It was getting light.
Paige felt empty.
Paige picked up her phone and looked at it. It was only 6:30. There were a few unread messages from Martin on
Line.
“Paige.
“I miss you so much that I can’t sleep.
“I want to hug and share the bed with you.”
Paige’s empty heart seemed to be filled with something. The feeling of loss was gone and replaced by faint
happiness.
