Joseph was preparing to leave the hospital with Paige, whose fever had gone, when the maid that
Lucas had sent arrived with a bowl of ginseng chicken soup.
Joseph reached over for the soup and poured a bowl for Paige delightedly. It was obvious that she
needed it after having four IV drips just now.
However, Paige refused to drink as she disliked the bitter taste of ginseng. Joseph could only feed her
slowly while persuading her with gentle words until she had finished the entire bowl.
The maid was stunned as she never knew that Joseph was such compassionate and gentle.
When she left the hospital, she immediately gave Lucas a call to update him, "Sir Joseph is fine, he
gave the soup to Miss Anderson because she wasn't feeling well."
"Do you mean Sir Joseph is not sick?" Lucas was stunned as there would be trouble again.
"Yeah, he was just accompanying Miss Anderson to the hospital," the maid continued, "They both
finished the soup together though."
"Alright, thank you." Lucas sighed before hanging up his phone.
After some debate, Lucas decided not to report the truth to Hayden as he was worried about Hayden's
temper.
While he had just made the decision, Hayden came up to him to ask for an update, "How's Joseph?"
"H... He's doing alright," Lucas stammered in shock.
"Tell me the truth," Hayden narrowed his eyes on Lucas nervous expression.
Lucas couldn't keep the secret anymore, "Sir Joseph's fine, he was just accompanying Miss Anderson
to the hospital as she wasn't feeling well."
Hayden tried to control the rage that was churning inside him as his eyes burned in fury.
Seeing how Paige was still by Joseph's side after so long, meant that Joseph was actually serious
about his relationship with her. None of his previous flings lasted more than three months.
Hayden had been sure that he could convince Joseph to break up with Paige, but today's incident had
proved otherwise.
He leaned back on his chair deep in thought, before asking Lucas, "Do you think I've gone too far by
working with Liam to deal with Paige?"
Lucas smiled bitterly, "You wouldn't have colluded with Liam if you knew of another way to settle this."
"Working with Liam has ruined my reputation completely. I thought long and hard about it last night,
now that Joseph are Paige are in a relationship, has I been wrong from the start?"
"You're right..." Lucas paused, "Sir Joseph has a stubborn personality and he might go against you if he
found out that you had bought over Anderson Group."
Hayden agreed while nodding, "Do you have any suggestions for me then?"
"I think you should meet with Miss Anderson and advise her to break up with Sir Joseph. With his ego, I
don't think he would beg her to stay if she did. This would kill two birds with one stone as you would be
able to continue with your plans without Joseph going against you."
Hayden paused before agreeing to Lucas' suggestion, "Alright, you go and distract Joseph somehow
so that I can meet Paige alone."
When they left the hospital, Joseph had wanted Paige to rest at home but she insisted on going to work
as she was feeling better.
Seeing how persistent Paige was, Joseph had no choice but to drop Paige off at the Central South
Building.
He only drove off once he saw that Paige had walked through the main door.
Liam and Kyrie were both not in the company when she arrived, and the secretary in charge also
reported that Liam had not arrived for work today.
Paige knew that Liam had given up on the company now since he had transferred ownership of the
company to Hayden.
Unlike him, Paige would not give up.
Then, Paige sat down and started to go through all the documents in detail. She believed that she
would be able to run the company alone just like her mother did. She would not let her mother's
beloved company fall into Hayden's hands.
She had been working for about half an hour when she received a call from Lucas, "Hello Miss
Anderson, are you free to meet with our Master right now?"
"Sure!" Paige did not refuse his request.
After giving Paige the address to the coffee shop and reminding her to keep this meeting a secret from
Joseph, Lucas hung up.
While Paige arrived at the coffee shop ten minutes earlier than the agreed time, Hayden only arrived
right on the meeting time.
Paige had heard that negotiation experts like Hayden would arrive right on time to ensure that they had
an upper hand. She had to prepare herself for the tough negotiation that was about to come.
She stood up and greeted Hayden politely, "Nice to see you again, Mr. Dawson!"
"Have a seat," Hayden appeared to be in a better mood compared to yesterday as he gestured for
Paige to sit down. However, his strict gaze was fixed on Paige the whole time and he did not touch the
coffee that had been served.
"I'm sure you know why I wanted to meet you, right?"
Paige chose her words carefully before answering, "I have an idea, but please do explain."
Hayden chuckled coldly before explaining, "Alright, I'll get straight to the point. Please break up with
Joseph."
Paige disagreed as she shook her head, "I apologize, but I don't think I can agree to your request."
"Miss Anderson, Joseph is a useless playboy that won't help you in any way. If you dump him, you
could date someone better," Dawson advised.
"I disagree, Mr. Dawson. Joseph is a good-looking and kind boy who takes care of me very well. I don't
think I'II find anyone like him in this lifetime!"
"A relationship is all about helping and building each other into a better person. What do you think you
can offer to Joseph, Miss Anderson?" Hayden's tone was icy.
"I might not be his best choice, but I am willing to offer all that I am to him. Even my life." Paige
answered calmly, her determined gaze boring into Hayden's glare.
Hayden shook his head, "Look Miss Anderson, life is not a show. I'm not going to give up just because
you put on an act by reciting an oath in front of me."
"I'm not putting up on act, Mr. Dawson. Why don't you just leave us be instead of trying so hard to
separate us if you knew that it would be futile? Joseph and I are willing to do anything for each other!"
"Why should I leave you two be when all I want is to separate the both of you?" Hayden was confused.
"Miss Anderson, I'll be honest with you, I have plans for Joseph to take over the company and continue
to run it successfully even when I'm no longer around. Joseph is my precious son, and I came here to
discuss about his future with you. However, you're not included in what I have in mind for him, do you
understand?"
"Why can't I be part of his future, then? Joseph and I love each other, so why can't you be happy for us
instead of trying to separate us at every chance you get?" Paige retorted.
"The happiness that you both have won't last forever," Hayden sighed regretfully.
"You know clearly how the others in the Dawson family are picking on Joseph. I'm worried about him,
and I don't want Joseph to end up as their puppet. I'm old now, and I don't have much time left, but I
don't want to have any regrets when I leave. So please grant this old man's wish by breaking up with
Joseph, alright?"
