The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 916

She sat there for a while.

Her phone kept vibrating, all from messages sent by Peyton using a different phone.

Paige didn't read any of them; she didn't want to.

Seeing that texting didn't work, Peyton called her after a while.

Paige took a deep breath.

She answered the call: "What do you want? I'm working!"

"Sweetie, Mom is begging you!" Peyton cried out, her voice very low, "I've seen Grant's true colors now. If you give me the money, I'll divorce him right away!"

Paige was stunned: "Really?"

"Actually, this debt is under my name because of him. I wouldn't have come to you otherwise, honey." Peyton said through tears.

"Mom, Grant is not a good person. He's fine when there's money and no trouble, but once there's trouble and no money, he'll be the first one to push you out to take the fall!" Paige said solemnly, "If you want to divorce, I'll hire the best divorce lawyer for you!"

"Okay!" Peyton cried, "We'll give him the money today and divorce tomorrow!"

"Mom." Paige suddenly called her.

"What's wrong?"

Paige was silent for a moment: "I'm just thinking, you wouldn't be lying to me, would you?"

Peyton quickly replied: "How could I lie to you? He sent me to jail and forced me to ask my daughter for money. I've had someone as good as your father. I can see through him now!"

At the mentioning of her father,

Paige felt sad.

If her father was still here, how could they have fallen to this point?

"Alright, I'll trust you one last time." Paige said seriously, "But remember, if you use the divorce as a scam, you'll completely cut off the last bit of our mother-daughter relationship."

"I won't lie to you, Mom won't lie to you." Peyton hurriedly answered.

As soon as Paige walked in, Peyton immediately stood up, "Did you get the money?"

"Let's eat first."

Paige sat down and said, "Mom, the house you guys are living in now, I bought it. I've talked to the lawyer, and I can revoke my donations, including the money I gave you, and get it back."

Peyton was taken aback.

Paige looked at her and smiled, "During the divorce, I can get all this back for you. Then you can live a wealthy, unattached life without any restrictions."

Peyton lowered her eyes and smiled, "Alright, I'll listen to you!"

Paige continued, "I'm really busy lately, and your divorce case might take some time. After it's over, I'll take you skiing with Baillie."

Peyton's expression turned a bit sour when she heard about the name Baillie.

It was after meeting this man that Paige became the disobedient and rebellious person she was now.

"Sweetie, this young guy isn't living off you, is he?" Peyton asked with some dissatisfaction.
