On paper, he's Paige's dad, and he's a Sutton.
To the Scotts, they were small fry, not worth the time of day.
The Scotts must look down on Paige before.
With the way things were now, there's no way Paige could turn it around!
"Well, if you've made up your mind, then I've got nothing else to say!" Grant put away his phone, ready to make a move.
"You're going to see my parents, aren't you?" Bailie asked nonchalantly.
Grant was taken aback.
"I...I'm not..."
"Cut the crap; your acting sucks. Only Peyton would fall for it." Bailie said, taking out his phone, "If you're looking for my parents, I can save you the trouble. I'll call them for you."
Grant was dumbfounded. What was he getting at?
After a few rings, Kate Scott picked up and said, "Son, are you off work already? Is Paige there? Is she feeling any better? Maybe I'll just head to H City and take her to R Country for a shopping spree! Or maybe...the A Country? Yeah, let's go buy some mines! I heard there's a new ruby mine!"
Kate just kept going.
"Mom, is Dad there?" Bailie asked very softly.
Grant sat back down.
"Honey, it's Bailie."
After a beat, Blake Scott's deep voice echoed, "Did you finish the medicine? I'll have someone send it over tomorrow!"
"Why send someone? I can go myself; I want to see Paige!"
Bailie glanced at Grant, cutting off the impending argument with, "Mom, someone's here to badmouth Paige."
The argument halted.
"Who?" Kate's tone was instantly hostile.
"You know, Paige's ex-stepdad." Bailie replied.
Kate raised her voice: "The one who cheated, beat his ex-wife, and drove her to death?"
"That's him."
