Chapter 900
Trapped in Love
âThereâs no risk of infection as long as heâs not with me. Heâll have a happy and fulfilling family in the future, with adorable and healthy children.â
Evan sneered. âEveryone has the right to choose their own future. Your intention may seem good, but itâs actually selfish.â
âSelfish? How am I selfish? Iâm doing this for him!â Paige looked at him in astonishment.
âYou claim youâre doing it for him, but youâve never considered his mood and wishes,â Evan said with a sneer.
Paige sniggered. âIs he willing to live with me, surrounded by medicine for the rest of his life? Will he endure his familyâs opposition for me and choose me at all times? Can he guarantee that we wonât argue because of this issue once weâre together?â
Evan replied, âFirstly, your illness is not a result of your own actions. Alex is aware of that, so he wonât argue with you. In fact, he will take care of you because of it.
âYou may ask him in person for the other two questions. He is determined and willing to do so based on his answer to me.â
Evan played the role of a mediator for Alexâs sake. He did it for Caroline, too. After all, Paige was her best friend and the only female friend she could discuss private matters within Cheasia.
It would be good for Paige to return to Cheasia.
Paige looked at him in a daze. âYou mentioned that he is determined and willing?â
âDonât believe me?â Evan stared at her.
Paige looked away. âI havenât heard it myself.â
Evan grabbed his phone and dialed Alexâs number.
Paigeâs eyes widened in shock when she heard the ringtone. âYouâ¦.â
âHello?â
Before Paige could finish her sentence, Alexâs voice was heard.
Her heart skipped a beat, perhaps due to not hearing Alexâs voice for a long time.
She felt anxious yet stressed.
She clenched her fists tightly.
Evan put the call on speaker. âAlex, find someone and get married.â
âFuck, Evan! What is wrong with you? I thought I told you that Paige is all I want? Did my parents call you? Tell them that Iâll cut ties with them if they dare to force me to get married!â Alex sounded agitated.
Paige was stunned.
Evan looked at her and said calmly, âDo you think itâs beneficial for you to keep waiting for her?â
âIâm not counting on the benefits! I just want Paige! We canât be friends anymore if you say such things again!â Alex said angrily.
Evan sneered. âYouâll stop befriending me because of a woman who has AIDS and will burden you?â
âShe didnât ask for it! I wonât allow you to call her that! She is the cleanest woman to me, regardless! I donât think that Paige is a burden! Iâd die for her to come back to me!â Alex said in rage.
Paige shed tears upon hearing that.
She knew Alex cared about her but had no idea how much he cared about her.
Evan passed napkins to Paige and told Alex, âHave you thought it through?â
Alex said, âYes! I thought I made it clear at your office the other day. I just got home, and Iâm preparing to tell my parents about the matter. Iâm going to make Azure pay for what she did!â
âAlright, thatâs all. Bye,â Evan said.
âHold on! Are you calling because you found her?â Alex called out anxiously.
Evan looked at Paige, and she shook her head profusely, beckoning him not to tell.
