Chapter 43

At 11:30 p.m., after Paige and her classmates left Mirage Hotel, Joseph went downstairs and took a taxi back home. When he arrived home downstairs, he saw Paige waiting for him by the car. He knew that she must have tons of questions to ask him, and he was also ready to reveal his identity to her, little by little. Smilingly, he walked to her and asked, “It’s cold outside. Why didn’t you go up? Or maybe you could’ve waited in the car.” With complicated eyes, Paige gazed at Joseph. His sudden appearance tonight and his slap on Leila to protect her made her heart flutter. In the past, she once hated him. However, after a few years, she only felt complex about his reappearance. Gazing at Joseph, she took a deep breath and uttered, “Thank you for what you did tonight…” Upon hearing that, Joseph was stunned. He looked at Paige with an extra intricate look and confessed, “If I tell you that I fell in love with you the moment you saved me five years ago, would you believe me?” Paige was puzzled. Then, after a long silence, she responded, “That’s not important anymore. What matters the most now is taking care of Chloe. You don’t have to do anything for me.(This novel will be daily updtaed at www.noveljar.com)  I don’t need it. We are Chloe’s parents, but we don’t need to be in love with each other. Before that, I also told you that you don’t have to be responsible for me. You have your life, and I promise I won’t intervene.” Following that, she turned around and left. While staring at her back, Joseph felt that she was a woman with a tough heart. No matter how much pain she felt, she would choose to bear it herself. However, in his eyes, she was so weak that she evoked his urge to protect her…

The next moment, Joseph no longer spoke. Instead, without warning, he grabbed Paige’s wrist, pulled her into his arms, and held her tightly. “Joseph! What are you doing? Let me go! Let me go!” In his arms, Paige was pushing him away desperately, trying to break free. But obviously, her strength was weaker than his. Hugging her tightly, Joseph whispered sadly, “I’m sorry. I can’t imagine how much you’ve suffered these years, but please believe me. I truly love you, and I will form a complete, happy family with you…” As soon as he finished, Paige stopped struggling. Then, her tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably before she leaned against him and sobbed. For these five years, she had held on all by herself. However, no one knew that she was exhausted long ago, living through her life like a walking corpse, soulless and strengthless.

dare to call him and asked him to come back. With that, she hung on by herself for five years. Having tears in her eyes, she looked at Joseph. “Do you know what you’re saying? I have nothing now, and you know how dense I am. If you truly mean that, I will take your words seriously. I really will.” At once, Joseph also burst into tears. When he saw how Paige reacted, his heart ached tremendously. Right away, he nodded hard and vowed, “I am serious. I swear. We will hold a wedding next month. In this lifetime, I will only take you as my wife!” Upon listening to what he said, Paige also nodded vigorously. “Well, I believe you, and I promise you, I will also work hard to be your good wife for the rest of my life…” After that, both of them fell silent. A flush crept on Paige’s face because, at this moment, she finally admitted Joseph as her husband. On the other hand, Joseph also knew that she was shy, so he didn’t say anything. Now that he was back, he had plenty of time to accompany her in the future. On that silent night, Joseph and Paige were still sleeping with their backs against each other. Chloe was between them as well. Nevertheless, whether it was Joseph or Paige, they stayed awake for a long time and only fell asleep when drowsiness consumed them. The moment they got up the next day, their eyes met, and Paige couldn’t help blushing again. Although she had admitted herself as his wife last night, she still needed some time to overcome her awkwardness. Later, during breakfast, Paige took the initiative to scoop some chowder for Joseph   and handed it to him, “Have more…” As Joseph’s lips curled up, he nodded. “Okay, you too. You have to work later, so eat more. Don’t forget to have some nice food during lunch as well…” “Okay…” Paige lowered her head and drank the chowder. Her face slightly blushed. Serena–who was sitting at one side-looked at the two of them strangely. Then, she laughed and said nothing. With that, Paige’s face became redder, and she pinched Serena’s hand. “Stop laughing and eat your breakfast!” “Alright, my dear sister. I am just envious at how affectionate you and Joseph are, hee hee…” Serena giggled. Hearing that, Chloe also clapped happily. “Yay! Daddy loves Mommy. Mommy loves Daddy. Daddy and Mommy love Chloe. We are a happy family,
