Flash Marriage to a Stunning CEO (Alistair and Richard)

Chapter 195 The Reason to Keep Going Paige sat opposite Leo and poured herself a cup of coffee. A sneer appeared on her face. "I'm not gonna accept a woman who loves to cause a ruckus and turn our family upside down. Sure, our family might not be top-tier, but we're not letting just any hick into the family!" Leo fixed Paige with a cold, piercing stare. He enunciated each word deliberately. "I've never even brought Miley up to you. How cyou not only know she exists but also know all about her background?" Paige was taken aback.

Suddenly, she realized it was fishy that she knew so much about Miley. She should've had no clue about Miley.

Cold sweat broke out on her forehead.

But she was no fool. Her eyes darted around for a moment, and then she quickly cup with an answer. "Um, it was..." "Did Ezra tell you?" Paige nodded frantically. "Yeah, yeah. Ezra told me." "You planted Ezra beside me. You made him watch my every move as my assistant, noting who I talked to and who I was Signup to claim 1 MEXC $8,000 Future Bonus!

How could she ever be good enough for you, the son of a professor? I went out on a sudden errand. Oh, I remember! I said I wanted to go hthat day, and you askedto get your favorite sandwiches from that shop early in the morning." As Leo talked, he attempted a half-hearted smile, but it twisted his face into a grimace that was far more pitiful than a sob. "I got out of the hotel bed at six in the morning. Drove for almost an hour round-trip to that sandwich place to get you those sandwiches. I was even planning to pick up Miley around seven and take her back to meet you." Paige just sat there, mute as a fish, not a single word coming out of her mouth. "When I got back to the hotel, Miley was gone. She took off so fast that she didn't even leavea note or anything. I was left there, totally confused." Leo fixed Paige with a mocking stare. "Then, later on, I found out the truth. You were the one who told Ezra to go to her and say that there were a bunch of women all over me, and that I was only with her because she was this pure, fresh-faced girl."

I've always been a good guy. There've been loads of women trying to get with me, but I've never given them the tof day.

"Miley's the only girl I've ever fallen head-over-heels for in my entire life! "Why did you break us up so cruelly? Why did you makelook like a heartless jerk?" Under Leo's increasingly blood-shot gaze, Paige felt so guilty that she hardly dared to look him in the eye.

Even at this point, she still hoped to shift the blame. "Did Ezra tell you all this? He's lying. I have no idea what you're talking about! That brat is trying to drive a wedge between us. Don't be fooled by him!" Leo laughed sardonically, "Don't you remember? You just praised Ezra for being honest and hard-working. Would such an honest and hard-working guy lie to me?" Paige had shot herself in the foot.

She regretted her actions. She never thought this would ever cto light.

She had overestimated Ezra's loyalty to her.

In fact, Ezra had been loyal to her. If it hadn't been for Alistair 3/7 FORGET OF EMPIRES PLAY X Close 13:23 Chapter 195 The Reason to Keep Going 8 min left and Caroline, Leo would still be kept in the dark, flying like a kite with the string in Paige's hand.

Did Alistair and the others do wrong? Whether it was out of their own self-interest or for Leo's well-being, they were right! Leo was an adult who needed freedom and independence! How could he break his own wings, give up his freedom, and bid farewell to his previous happiness just to satisfy his mother's sick sense of control? Before he even woke up to the truth, his happiness had already been brutally snuffled out by his mother! Leo felt as if he were living in hell.

"Leo, Leo! I know I was wrong. It was my fault. I shouldn't have been so prejudiced against that girl. How about this? Where is she now? I will go and apologize to her right away. I won't stop you two from being together. I'll treat her like my own daughter. I promise!" Seeing Leo turn around and walk away in despair, Paige was completely panicked.

Caroline might ignore her as an aunt, Mabel might give her ti cold shoulder as a daughter, and Gordon might turn a blind eye 4/7 FORGET CAT MPIKES PLAY X Close 13:23 Chapter 195 The Reason to Keep Going 8 min left to her. But Leo was her son, the pride of her life. He couldn't ignore her! After his fit of rage, Leo slumped back into the sstate of dejection that Alistair had seen before.

With empty eyes, he let out a cold, sarcastic laugh. "Fine, then go ahead and bring her back from down there." "Alright, alright, son. I'll send someone to fetch her right away. No, wait, I'll go get her myself. Where is she? Down... down..." Paige suddenly trailed off, her eyes widening in terror.

Leo turned his head and stared at her blankly. "Yeah, down there. She's gone. She died five years ago. Are you happy now?" Paige, who usually held herself so gracefully, staggered and crumpled to the ground.

Little did she know at that moment, Leo's arrival was just the start of this horrible day.

"Hey, sir! This is a private property. No trespassing. If you try to cin again, I'll call the cops!"

Outside the house, as Leo walked m away apathetically, he heard the butler trying to stop someone at the courtyard gate.

He just kept moving forward, like a walking ghost.

All his past achievements now seemed utterly meaningless.

The only thing that stopped him from ending his life after being struck by ve the triple blows of grief, a shattered worldview, and deep disappointment in his mother was the news that Miley had left him a daughter.

That little girl was the sole reason he kept going.

Leo searched for his daughter like a madman, forgetting to eat or sleep.

Ezra was horrified by his state and pleaded with him through tears. "Con. Eat something, or at least have a drink of water. You'll drop dead otherwise!" Ezra felt incredibly remorseful.

Although he wasn't the mastermind, he was an accomplice, and the guilt weighed heavily on him.

Finally, Leo's perseverance paid off. He got the exact information that his daughter had been adopted by a young woman.

He wanted to stay and make amends for his mistakes, but Leo didn't need him around.

As he made his way back, Leo's mind was in a whirl.

He'd heard that the girl who adopted his daughter was stunningly beautiful, a city girl, and quite well-off.

For sreason, he couldn't help but think of Caroline.
