The Secret Heir's Return to Wealth and Love novel Chapter 971

Actually, Paige wasn't even sure herself.

Her subconscious complaints were actually a test for Baillie.

After marrying, he slowly pulled her out of the mess she was in before.

He showed her what it meant to be loved and made her realize that she was good enough.

Today, she took Rosalynn's words to heart.

But she was too worried to tell Baillie the truth.

So, when she heard Baillie's words, she couldn't react in time, and then an unprecedented sense of grievance flooded her heart.

Maybe she should let her relationship with Baillie become stronger.

Paige buried her head in Baillie's chest, hugged his waist with both hands, and cried, "I'm sorry, I lied."

Baillie was a bit flustered for a moment.

"Don't cry, don't cry, just take your time and tell me, okay?"

Later, Paige told Baillie that Peyton brought someone to the company to demand money, but after being refused, she took more than seven million under the pretext of divorce.

Baillie sat across from her, wiping her tears with a tissue.

He knew that Paige had given the money but didn't know that Paige had given it because Peyton said she wanted a divorce.

"Actually, I knew she was lying to me, but I just couldn't help but want to prove something." Paige choked up, looking pitifully at Baillie and sobbing, "We're married, does this seven million count as our marital property?"

Baillie looked at her with a mix of heartache and helplessness.

"Firstly, the money was earned prior to our marriage, so it does not fall under joint assets. Secondly, upon our marriage, you signed a marital property agreement acknowledging that the money you earned remains solely yours," Baillie explained.

Paige had no idea about this.
