The Mysterious Billionaire

Chapter 382

Joseph asked such a direct question, and Liam was taken by surprise. He wiped the sweat from his head.

"I don't know who else schemed against Natalie, but I'm guessing that Savannah has more incentive to do so. Your father should have been aware of it as well, and Gavin probably participated too."

Joseph looked at him expressionlessly and said, "Is that so? Tell me about the situation at that time."

Liam began to tell the story, "In the past, Natalie and Archer were deeply in love. Your eldest sister, Savannah, also liked him, but he didn't like her back. Gavin and your father wanted them to marry, but Archer never agreed and always wanted to be with Natalie. In order to resist the pressure from the Saunders and Dawson family, they left for the capital." Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

"Oh? That happened?" Joseph did not know about the fact that they went to the capital.

After all, he had not been born when Archer and Natalie fell in love with each other.

"After they left, Savannah didn't give up and followed them to the capital. However, they were inseparable and even lived together. Natalie also got pregnant!"

"Natalie got pregnant? Are you sure?"

Joseph was extremely shocked. He did not know that Natalie had another child with Archer before they had Paige.

"Yes, because of her pregnancy, Archer was ecstatic. He thought that Gavin would agree to their

relationship for the sake of her baby, so Archer told him about it. After hearing that Natalie was pregnant, Gavin was very surprised, and he asked Archer to come back with her to discuss it. Archer did not know that it was a trap, so they went back to Ruthorham."

Liam took a breath and continued, "After Archer came back with Natalie, the Saunders family seemed to be opening up to them, but in fact, they were planning something else. They didn't intend on letting her marry into the Saunders family at all. The eldest daughter of the Saunders family and Savannah framed Archer together, which led to him having drunk sex with your sister." Archer and Savannah got together because of this, and Joseph had heard about it.

Savannah got pregnant from that incident.

The Saunders and Dawson family used these cunning tricks to force Archer to marry Savannah, but Joseph never knew about Natalie's pregnancy.

"Wasn't Natalie pregnant? What happened to her child?"

"Savannah's pregnancy was kept a secret for a long time. Natalie didn't know about it until she was seven months pregnant. She was depressed and gave birth to a premature baby, but the baby didn't make it!"

Liam continued, "After their baby died, cracks started to appear in their relationship, and they started ignoring one another. Natalie broke up with Archer, but he refused. At that time, I liked Natalie so I stayed by her side to take care of her. In order to end their relationship, I volunteered to be her boyfriend to make him give up, and she agreed."

Joseph frowned. "Since you were pretending, why did you marry her?"

"Archer did not believe that Natalie would fall in love with another man. He was unwilling to give up and kept bothering her. However, he suddenly agreed to marry Savannah. After they got married, I thought that my fake relationship with Natalie was going to end, but she felt guilty for using me and let me work at her company. After Savannah married Archer, she gave birth. However, Archer never had eyes for her. She was worried that Archer and Natalie would get back together, so she kept an eye on them. When Savannah was on her third year of marriage with Archer, she set us up shamelessly! After that night, Natalie got pregnant, so she had no choice but to marry me."

Listening to his story, Joseph basically knew what happened after. Natalie was forced to marry Liam

because she got pregnant.

Why did Archer suddenly agree to marry Savannah? Liam said that he did not know about it, but Joseph had already guessed the reason. It must be the situation he had been investigating recently. Hayden made a deal with Archer using his mother's death. Archer chose to compromise for the sake of his beloved.

But how were they set up later on? Liam had reproductive disabilities, so how could Natalie be pregnant with his child? There must be something wrong with her pregnancy.

Liam sneered and said, "I know now that I can't have children. In this case, the person who got Natalie pregnant is not me, but someone else! Natalie must have known long ago. I can't believed she deceived me for so many years. If it weren't for Julie's reminder, I wouldn't have known that Paige is not my child!"

Looking at his angry face, Joseph sneered, "You've also hidden your intentions for so many years, haven't you? So, it's not because you're smart and Natalie is easy to fool. It's because she didn't take you seriously at all!"

When Joseph left the interrogation room and came to the parking lot, Paige immediately got out of the car. "Joseph, what did he say?"

"He told me about things that happened in the past." Joseph sighed and pulled her into the car.

"Liam told me that when he pushed your mother down the stairs, she wanted to divorce and leave him, so he knelt to beg for mercy. Your mother did not agree, and it ended up with her falling down the stairs and ending up in a coma."

"That's what he said?" She asked with suspicion.

"Of course not only that, he also told me something about your mother's previous conflicts with him."

There was no way to hide the relationship between Natalie and Archer, so Joseph planned to tell Paige about their relationship first.

"Liam also told me why he married your mother. Before that, your mother and Archer Saunders were a couple. Since the Saunders family objected to their relationship, Archer married my sister and broke up with your mother. My sister was worried that they would get back together, so she set up Liam and your mother. After she got pregnant, she had no choice but to marry Liam."

After hearing his explanation, Paige was speechless. She had a feeling that he was hiding something from her. However, if he didn't want to say anything, she would not pester him about it.

So far, she believed his story. He had his reasons for not telling the full story. However, what she was going to do now was convict Julie and Paxton of their crimes so she could get justice for her mother.

It was already noon, and Joseph knew that Paige was hungry. So, he took her to have lunch.

Although she was starving, she had no appetite and her chest felt heavy. There had been no progress in Paxton's interrogation.

He was determined to remain silent. With no other evidence, the police had no way to deal with it.

Paige was worried that they would not be able to find evidence. After all, a long time had passed since

Natalie's death. If Paxton did not admit it, it would be difficult for her to take revenge.

Joseph forced her to eat a few mouthfuls of rice and drink some soup.

After they left the restaurant, Joseph's phone rang. James called and said, "I've found proof. Paxton's men bought the poison. We have that person in custody!"
