The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 245

The more Andrew looked at Paige, the more familiar she looked to him.

However, he couldn't remember where he had seen her before.

Joseph was unhappy at the fact that Andrew kept staring at her.

"Aren't you supposed to be fishing? How are you expected to catch any fish if you're not focused?" Andrew withdrew his gaze after hearing his words, "I just feel that Miss Anderson looks a little familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen her before."

He saw Ethan as he spoke, and a look of realization appeared on his face. He said, "I remember now! Miss Anderson looks like Ethan's girlfriend."

"She looks like Ethan's girlfriend? Are you sure about that?" Paisley did not know about Paige and Ethan, so she was quite shocked at his statement.

"I don't think I'm mistaken. I saw her once when I came back a few years ago," He stared at Paige again, "That's right, it is her. I remember very clearly."

"They broke up a long time ago!" Joseph replied.

"Broke up?" Andrew was stunned and looked at Paige, "Didn't she like him a lot? Why did they break up?"

"That's none of your business."

Ethan also came up to them as they spoke.

He grew stiff when he saw Andrew, but he still forced himself to greet him, "Andrew, when did you come back?"

Andrew glanced at him and said, "Last night."

"Why didn't you call me…"

"Why should he call you? Are you guys close to each other?" Joseph shamelessly interrupted him.

Ethan was embarrassed, but he did not dare to provoke Joseph. He excused himself and said, "There's someone I know over there. I'll go over and greet them."

Looking at Ethan leaving in such a hurry, Andrew could not help but glance at Joseph again.

Joseph sat there expressionless while looking in the direction of Hardy and Paige at the corner of his eyes.

Hardy kept tilting his head to talk to Paige, but she was sitting with her back facing him, so he could not see her expression. Abbie, on the other hand, was laughing uncontrollably.

He threw his fishing rod and stood up, "I'm going to smoke!"

Paisley was left in a daze as he left so suddenly. She opened her mouth to say something, but he had already left.

Joseph quickly walked to a vacant place and lit up his cigarette. He took a puff and heard footsteps come from behind him.

James walked over and greeted him, "Mr. Dawson!"

Joseph puffed out a smoke ring and looked at him, "I was just looking for you. Has Liam and Hardy's problem not been settled yet?"

"It's settled. I came over to tell you about it. Hardy will have some trouble to deal with soon!" Upon hearing his words, Joseph nodded.

Hardy would not be able to be by Paige's side anymore because of this.

"Abbie too. She keeps on getting in my way, so I have to get in her way too. Did you find Lauryn Reynolds?"

"Yes, I've found her and I've already told her to look for Michael," James replied, though he wasn't sure about the intentions in letting the model go to Michael.

"Michael and Miss Cook don't have much in common. She probably wouldn't mind if Lauryn were to flirt with him, right?"

"No! She will care about it!" Joseph said with a cold snort.

"Michael is a very important person to her. Since she's always playing the matchmaker for others, let me give her a taste of it this time! If she knows about Michael and Lauryn, she probably wouldn't get in

our way anymore."

"Uhm.." James was shocked.

Did Joseph mean that Michael and Abbie had an affair?

"Does Aiden know?"

"Yes!" Joseph nodded.

"Abbie even tried to commit suicide for his sake, but she doesn't remember anything."

"What? Did she lose her memory?" James looked at him in shock.

"I think it is just a temporary memory loss, so she'll remember some day."

"If that's the case, why is Michael still engaged to Miss Cook's sister?"

"It's a long story with some misunderstandings. Forget it, let's not talk about it anymore. Go and do your work. I have to talk to Bobby about something."

Paige had been distracted ever since Hardy called her and Abbie over to fish. Seeing her distracted even though Hardy was so patient with her, Abbie knew that she was thinking about Joseph. Other than Joseph's appearance, everything else that Hardy had was comparable with Joseph. Abbie didn't understand why she couldn't move on from him, and she pinched her arm in anger.

"Ouch," Paige said.

Hardy turned his head and said, "What's wrong?" NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

"It's nothing... I think mosquitoes just bit me."

"There are mosquitos out in the ocean?" Hardy looked around and his phone rang.

He took out his mobile phone and picked it up in front of them. Bevan Shaw, his assistant, said anxiously, "Mr. Anthony, our land has been taken back by the city construction!"

"What's going on? Why do they suddenly want to take back that land?" He answered in shock. The news came so suddenly, so he could barely control his emotions.

"They said that they had a change in plans. This is the government's decision, so we can't do anything about it. Our deposit will be returned fully, but we have to come up with another plan."

"That's absurd!" Hardy had a feeling that someone was playing tricks on him. For the government to change their plans with land that was worth billions of dollars was a serious issue.

Hardy anxiously stood up with his phone and said, "Tell me the details."

Seeing Hardy leave, Abbie glared at Paige.

"What's wrong with you? Why are you so distracted?"

"I'm not in the mood!" Paige replied gloomily.

"Look at you, it's Joseph, isn't it? Please be more careful so you won't fall for his tricks. That b*stard is never satisfied with what he has…”

Before Abbie could finish her words, a woman's voice rang in her ears, "Michael!"

Abbie turned her head and looked over. She saw a tall and beautiful woman sitting next to Michael.

Michael turned to look at the glamorous woman, "Lauryn!"

"Oh dear, I thought you didn't remember me. Didn't you say you'd contact me after going back? Why haven't you contacted me after so long?" The woman acted like a spoiled child and stared at him eagerly with her beautiful eyes.

"I've been too busy lately, It just slipped my mind!" Michael replied with a smile.

"Well, I guess I can only put the blame on you. Let me add you on WhatsApp so I can remind you next time."

The woman took out her mobile phone to add him, and it would be rude for him to refuse, so he also took his phone out as well!

Looking at the smile on his face, Abbie felt a stabbing pain in her heart. It was as if her heart were torn apart.

She couldn't help standing up, "D*mn it, how dare you hook up with another woman behind my sister's back!"
