Baillie looked at Paige.
Tears filled her eyes, and her body trembled slightly.
Baillie took a gentle breath, ready to step forward.
Paige silently stopped him.
Baillie looked back at her. There were tears in Paige’s eyes, but she gritted her teeth and shook her head.
Peyton had to see who Grant really was. A person can only decide how they want to live their life once they see the sobering reality of their surroundings.
Baillie didn't step up after all.
He didn't want to get involved in the first place, but he was going to because he saw his wife feel sorry for that woman.
Now that his wife stopped him, there was no need to help them anymore.
After they checked the surveillance footage, everything was clear.
Baillie and Paige also went to the police station to make a statement.
When they came out, they ran into Logan who had rushed over.
Logan was panting and his steps slowed down, "Paige, I didn't know my dad would..."
Paige held Baillie's hand tightly, didn't even look at Logan, and walked straight away from the police station.
Logan stood still as if he was pierced by countless ice blades from all directions, his body cold but heart-achingly painful.
Today, when he saw Paige and Baillie in the cemetery, his heart ached so much that it was difficult to breathe.
He remembered that on one of Paige's father's anniversaries, he went to keep her company when she was abroad.
Paige once said to him, "When we get married, I'll take you alone to see my dad, and then tell him how good you are and how much I love and care for you as my husband."
Logan had never been to Paige's father's grave before.
