Chapter 191
Once she received her father's call, Paige rushed to the office. She was prepared to get scolded once she arrived.
But instead of scolding her, he smiled when he saw her. He said, "You're here. Let's have lunch together."
"Have lunch?" Paige asked in confusion.
She looked at him and wondered if he wanted to have lunch or her head.
Liam was about to explode in anger as he was sure that Paige was behind this.
But judging by how the news had spread, he did not dare to scold her.
What he had to do then was to suppress the news. The online rumors had claimed that they had got into a huge fight.
So now, he wanted to make sure news of him and Paige being chummy again would spread online. He held in his anger and pulled Paige's hand as he walked out.
"Come on, let's have your favorite steamboat today."
What was happening? Paige was stiff as she was dragged out of the company. On their way to the restaurant, there were people taking pictures of them.
Liam was smiling the whole time, looking like he was in a good mood. He even took the initiative to put
vegetables on her plate.
Paige didn't understand what he was trying to do until she saw people taking pictures of them.
Such a big thing had happened and it even affected the company badly. Her father must be doing this to get rid of all the negative news.
Once she understood his intentions, her mouth curved into a mocking smile. After all, Joseph was the one who started this. Thus, she felt obliged to go along with him and let the news die down.
Paige too bit back her anger and acted along with him. However, they were not professional actors so they got tired after a while.
After a few pictures of them looking like they were on good terms were taken, Liam's expression changed and he stopped pretending.
"You caused this mess. Why are you so ignorant? Do you know how much money the company has lost today? Your mom and I built this company up from scratch. Even if it's not for me, you should think for your mom too. Do you want to see the company just being ruined like that?"
Thinking that it was Joseph who did this, Paige kept silent while Liam scolded her.
Even though she felt indignant, she could not refute him for the first time.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, he was sure that she was behind it. It made him hate her to the core. If it were in the past, he would have slapped her before saying anything.
But this was not the time to turn against her, so he could only hold in his anger.
"I’m not sure how long this will continue to affect the company. Tonight, I'm going back home and you should as well. From today onwards, come to the company as often as you can and we'll have meals together. You should also come with me to meet clients as well." Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
"I have no problem with that. But what are you going to do about your mistress and children? Are you going to ignore them?"
"That's not something you should be concerned about. The most important thing now is to cease this negative news, so you had better do as I say! I'm going for golf in the afternoon. Dress up nicely and come with me."
To go along with Liam's acts, Paige had to dress in golf attire and accompany him there.
She didn't know how to play golf so she just played for a while and went under the shade for tea.
Under the large shade, she read the news on her phone. Pictures of her having lunch with her father were already posted online.
Liam's company had also issued an official notice saying that their relationship was as good as before.
It also mentioned that the news yesterday night was just a fake rumour. It even announced that they would sue the one that spread that piece of news
