Chapter 227
Paige thought carefully. The only place she went to last night was Climax Space, and then she went home with Abbie after that, right?
Nothing happened on the way. How could the card disappear so suddenly?
She frowned and thought for a while.
Something was not right. She remembered calling Joseph when she came back, but she was so angry during the call that she might have thrown the card somewhere.
Remembering this, Paige began to look for the card all over the room. There were only two partitions in the bedroom. She searched everywhere, but she still couldn't find anything.
She sat down on the sofa with disappointment and said, "Abbie, I can't find the card. What should I do?"
"If you can't find it, then don't bother looking for it anymore. Tell him that you can't find it. It's his card, so he should go to the bank himself to re-apply for another card"
Paige thought that what Abbie said was reasonable, so she stopped looking for the bank card. Hardy called her when he arrived at their door, so they picked up their bags and left the villa.
Hardy got out of the car and waited for them. When he saw Paige and Abbie walking towards him, his eyes lit up in surprise.
"Paige, you look beautiful! Anyway, Miss Cook is also very stunning!"
"Thank you!" Paige and Abbie got into the car, and the driver started the engine and went straight to the venue of the cruise party.
They were quite early when they reached the venue. The driver stopped the car so that they could get off.
The parking lot was quite far from where the cruise ship was at, but they could see it when they got off the car.
The cruise ship was owned by a cruise company under Acma Corporation. It was 25 floors high and extremely luxurious.
Hardy took Paige and Abbie onto the cruise ship. The person in charge immediately came over and said, "Mr. Anthony, everything has been prepared and it is ready. Please check to see if there is anything else to improve."
"Okay!" Hardy nodded and ordered the people who welcomed them, "Take Miss Anderson and Miss Cook to their rooms to rest!"
"Miss Anderson and Miss Cook, please follow me!" The person politely led Paige and Abbie into the elevator.
Paige and Abbie's rooms were next to each other. Their rooms were both luxurious suites, which were as lavish as the presidential suite. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
When they entered the room, Paige's eyes lit up. "Wow! There's a terrace. You can enjoy the beautiful scenery here!"
"Yeah", Abbie threw her bag onto the bed.
"The room isn't bad. The last time I came here, the room was neither this big nor luxurious. Thanks to you, I get to enjoy myself this time."
"What are you talking about?" Paige glared at her.
"It's true. This floor is full of VIP rooms. All the rooms here are occupied by people of high status. I also stayed on this floor when I came last time, but the room wasn't as big. It seems that Hardy really cares of you, much more than Joseph."
With Aiden limiting her card due to what happened between her and Joseph, Abbie was hateful. So she immediately began to praise Hardy to attack Joseph.
Paige retorted seriously, "Joseph was also very kind to me before. At that time, he didn't expose his identity to me, but he knew that I liked to eat, so he asked people to send me the Wolf Group's breakfast every day."
"Wasn't he just trying to fool you? Why isn't he delivering the Wolf Group's breakfast to you now?"
Paige sighed and said, "Okay, let's stop talking about him. Let's go to the deck and enjoy the scenery!"
The two went to the deck to look at the scenery. As it almost turned dark, the sea was covered with a layer of fog and star-like lights were reflected onto the surface of the water. It was a unique and
wonderful scene.
Paige was lost in thought while looking at the sea. Suddenly, Abbie reached out and poked her. "Look, the b*stard and the b*tch are coming."
Paige turned her head and looked in the direction Abbie was pointing at. She saw Ethan and Sophia, one after the other, preparing to go on the ship.
The expressions on both of their faces were unnatural. Apparently, neither of them had expected to meet the other.
"What the hell? How did Ethan, that jerk, get an invitation here?" Abbie muttered.
"His aunt is Elizabeth Green. Hardy would definitely invite him on behalf of Charles, right?" Paige sneered.
"That's true. But hasn't that jerk been fired by the Dawson family? It's been a long time since I've heard any news of him. Why is he here today? To make a fool of himself, isn't it? Paige, should we teach these two a lesson?"
"No, I'm not interested!" Paige was really not keen on dealing with the unexpected couple.
She had no more interest or love towards Ethan at all, so how could she hate him?
There was only one person who could emotionally affect her, and that person was now standing tall and charmingly on the red carpet of the cruise ship.
Wherever he went, Joseph would attract the attention of thousands of people. But today, he did not look like a person who came to attend a party at all.
He wore a simple white shirt, black trousers, and a coat on his shoulder. Because of his good looks, the casual outfit worked out and he looked extra good in it.
Abbie snorted when she saw Joseph, "The one who called for the card is here! Strange, I thought he would be with Paisley, so I didn't expect him to be alone. However, even without a female companion, it's obvious that it's secretly Paisley, right?"
Paige forced a smile and said nothing.
Looking at him from a distance, she still felt attracted to him. No wonder she could accept him even as how he was back then.
Because he was the only Joseph Dawson in the world. No matter what his identity was, nobody could resist his charm.
She sighed and looked away, "Abbie, let's go eat something. I'm a little hungry.”
"That's a good idea!"
Abbie and Paige went to the dining room.
Since it was a party, the food was presented as a buffet.
The various kinds of delicacies made their stomachs growl. When Paige and Abbie entered the dining
area, they saw Aiden, James, and Michael.
"They came so early!" Abbie muttered.
Seeing Abbie and Paige, Michael beckoned them to go over.
Abbie was angry at Aiden who had cut off her card, and she didn't have a good impression of Michael either. So, she ignored them and took Paige directly to the other side to sit down.
Michael, who had noticed Abbie's reaction towards them, did not get angry. He turned to look at Aiden and said, "You haven't resolved things with her?"
"Well, she's stubborn. We'd better leave her alone for a few days."
"That's not good. No matter what, you should still give her some money. She even hates me now because of you."
"It's normal for her to hate you. Do you think she will like you?" Aiden gave Michael a faint look.
Hearing this, Michael suddenly stopped talking. James, who was beside him, felt that Aiden's words were quite direct and he could not help saying, "Why would Miss Cook hate Michael? Is there something I don't know of?"
"No!" Aiden and Michael answered simultaneously.
James could not help but stare at them for their suspicious reactions.
Aiden pointed at the door and said, "Hey, your boss is here."
