The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 1087

After hanging up the phone, Paige's face turned rosy, just like a ripe red apple. Rosalynn held her tall cup, giving her a suggestive smile. "It seems like I can rest assured now."

"Rest assured about what?" Paige asked, puzzled.

"You truly care about Baillie," Rosalynn said, her biggest concern being Paige's ability to move on from the pain Logan Sutton caused her.

"He genuinely cares about me, and it wouldn't be right for me not to respond," Paige replied seriously.

Rosalynn smiled and said, "But I have a question. You mentioned earlier that you got to know Baillie through a land deal. He proposed smoothly after meeting just two or three times, but from his perspective, it seems like he went through many difficulties to marry you. Is that true?"

Paige blinked her eyes and said, "Maybe he presents it that way to others? To make me seem more precious?"

Rosalynn shook her head without hesitation. "If it were someone else, that could be the case, but when Baillie says it, he truly means it."

"Really..." Paige pondered for a moment and nodded.

"You said before that you met Baillie because of a land purchase," Rosalynn asked.

Paige nodded.

"He was doing fine, so why did he sell the land? It was such a prime location. What was the price he offered?" Rosalynn continued her questioning.

"Market price, but the middleman said it was negotiable."

Rosalynn found it incredible and said, "For that location, a price above the market value would be normal. How could he still negotiate?"

"The middleman said he needed the funds for liquidity..." Paige said, even she found it unbelievable. The Baillie family might lack anything else, but they would never lack liquidity.

"Needed liquidity, and then after smoothly marrying you, he gave it to you as a betrothal gift," Rosalynn raised an eyebrow.

Paige looked puzzled. "Are you suggesting that he knew from the beginning that I wanted to buy the land, so he came to me on purpose?"

"It's quite obvious," Rosalynn nodded.

"But I asked him if he had secretly liked me for a long time and finally got the chance when I broke up with Logan... and he said no," Paige said.

"Hmm... It doesn't seem like you had many opportunities to meet before," Rosalynn shook the wine glass in her hand, lost in thought, then slapped her thigh. "We're just speculating now. When he comes back, just ask him directly!"

"That's true!" Paige checked the time. "I have to go back to sleep. Today, because of Kelsey Sharp, a lot of things got delayed. I have many things to do tomorrow."
