Chapter 292 Stop Bothering Me

Evan explained nonchalantly, “With Caroline’s troublesome relatives.”

Alex said, “Huh? Do you mean those we encountered at the restaurant?

Evan smiled. “You have been very close with her recently. Aren’t you going to help her out?”

Alex was displeased. “Why aren’t you doing that?”

‘Why should I do it when Evan has a longer relationship with Caroline than me and Paige? Moreover, I was almost incapacitated by Paige’s kick this evening,‘ Alex complained inwardly.

Evan sipped his drink. Tm the most influential CEO of Southeast Rheasia, after all. I can’t get involved in a women’s fight.”

“You’re aware that you’re the most influential CEO now, but do you remember those five years of heavy drinking while searching for Caroline?‘ Alex mocked inwardly

Alex said, “If you can’t get involved, do you think I can get involved?”

Evan glanced at Alex. “You are a women’s advocate and know how to manipulate them.”

“Are you complimenting me?” Alex was furious.

A moment later, he heaved a sigh. “Alright, what would you like me to do? Tell me!”

Evan said, “Appeal to their emotions with understanding and convince them with reason. You

may get physically involved if you have no other choice. I’ll be your backer.”

Alex was astounded. “Are you asking me to fight with women? How could you, Evan?”

Evan put down his glass slowly. “Your father-”

Before Evan could finish his sentence, Alex stood up abruptly. I’m going now!”

Alex rushed to Bayview Villa just in time to meet Paige when she walked out of the house.

Caroline was surprised to see Alex and asked Paige, “Did he know you’re here?”

Paige was dumbfounded. “I didn’t tell him! What brought him here?”

Alex got out of the car in a rush after noticing them.

Caroline asked in confusion, “What brought you here at this time, Mr. Pierce?”

Alex frowned when he saw the injury on Paige’s face. He began to say, “I heard that you were-

He also had to avoid any mention of himself. Otherwise, they might think he was a pervert who watched over his best friend’s woman

It dawned on him that Evan had trapped him once more. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

After a brief pause, he came up with an excuse. “I came here to see Paige!”

“Why would you want to see me in the middle of the night? Go to your mother instead,” Paige quipped.

Alex diverted the topic of conversation after noticing that Paige believed his excuse. “What’s with

your face?”

“Scratched by a bitch!”

Paige was furious that she did not win the fight earlier.

Speaking of which, how would Alex know that she was at Caroline’s place?

Paige glared at Alex. “Did you plant a bug on me?”

Alex was rendered speechless.

“I went to the bar you often go to, but you weren’t there. So, I decided to give this place a shot,”

Alex fibbed.

Paige said, “You’re smart, but get out of here and stop bothering me!”

Alex asked, “Aren’t you even touched at all?”

Paige said, “Why would I be touched? Should I be touched that you used me?”

“Paige, you can’t keep punishing me for a mistake that I made, right?”

Paige grunted. “I will do it for eternity!”

Caroline was puzzled as they quarreled at her door. “Alright, stop quarreling. Go home first, Paige.

Paige nodded. “Call me if you need anything! I refuse to believe that I can’t deal with that shrew!”
