Chapter 341
CEO's Mysterious Fiancee
Chapter 341 Make a Call It was said Carroll loved chess a lotâ¦.
When he bought the chess at a high price, he also spent a lot of money on an exquisite box to store the chess!
How could Paige have the chess? Was it the real deal?
âSorry to keep you waiting.â
Paige placed the gift box in front of Rosa with both hands and smiled faintly, âI wanted to bring the chess to you next time, but I didnât expect such an episode to happen. I want to take this opportunity to give it to you, Rosa. I wonder if you like it.â
Rosa didnât expect Paige to think that. She had long wanted to give the chess to Rosaâ¦
She smiled and asked Killian to open it for her. Inside was more translucent and beautiful chess and chessboardâ¦
âHow canâ¦â Ashlyn was shocked. âHow can there be two identical sets of chessâ¦â
It seemed the color and workmanship of Paigeâs chess were as good as Adriannaâs. Now the fake looked so real?
Diana couldnât believe her eyes. She couldnât find any flaws in Paigeâs chess.
Scottâs face looked sour. He did not expect Paigeâs chess to look so authenticâ¦.
âI bought this chess from the granddaughter of a collector. It canât be fake! Where did you get this?â
Paige looked up and said casually, âCarroll doesnât have a granddaughter.â
When that was said, everyone was shocked!
It was well known Carroll had a granddaughter, but Carroll kept it secret, so few people had seen his grandchildrenâ¦
âYou were cheated,â Paige said confidently.
âNonsense! I have friended Mr. Schultz on Line! I can also see her Instagram posts! There are many photos of her and Mr. Schultz!â
Some photos were taken in Carrowâs yard. If she hadnât been his granddaughter, how could she have been in Carrollâs house in pajamas and taken pictures with him?
âOh, then I am sure she isnât Mr. Schultzâs granddaughter. You must have been cheated.â
Hearing Paige say that, Adrianna became furious. âDo you know Mr. Schultz? How do you know if he has a granddaughter? You havenât answered where you bought your chess! If you lie today, not only will you ruin the friendship between the Stowe family and the Hart family, but you will also ruin. Mr.
Schultzâs reputation!â
After all, she said Carroll did not have a granddaughter!
âMr. Schultz gave me the chess.â
When Paige said that, everyone was shocked!
No!
Impossible!
Carroll loved chess so much. How could he give his beloved treasure to a little girl?
His granddaughter had to pester him for more than three months to get the chess.
Scott laughed out loud, apparently taking Paigeâs words as a joke!
He knew Carroll was a strange old man with a bad temper. How could he value a little girl and even give her his beloved collectionâ¦.
It was simply a big joke!
Paigeâs lie sounded *****!
Adrianna also laughed, âMs. Lusk, your lie is laughable⦠You said you knew Mr. Schultz and got the chess from him. Do you have evidence?â
âOh, I have friended him on Line.â
âGirl, let me tell you. I know Carroll, and I know his voice⦠He doesnât friend strangers on Lineâ¦â
Scott was amused and said.
Scott had been rejected by Carroll mercilesslyâ¦
At that time, Scott had wanted to buy the chess and sweetened Carroll up, but Carroll had refused.
Could Paige make Carroll give her the chess for free?
Hilarious.
Paige took out her mobile phone and made a call.
After a while, the call connected.
âPaige, did I see it wrong, or did you tap it wrong? You actually called me! How strangeâ¦
Carrollâs voice sounded, and everyone was stupefied.
When Killian and Rosa heard that, they immediately confirmed it was Carrollâs voice. They instantly felt they would emerge victorious.
Scottâs expression changed. It was indeed Carrollâs voice and tone. It must be him!
But, how could this be possibleâ¦
Carroll sounded like he really knew this girl!
Who exactly was this girl?
Why was she valued by Carroll?
âMr. Schultz, are you resting? Did I disturb you?â Paige remembered he usually rested early.
âHey, save it. Even if I am lying in a coffin, I will immediately get up when you call me! How about it?
When will you play chess with me?â
There was a lot of new information. Paige also knew how to play chess.
From the sound of it, she seemed to have played chess with Carroll beforeâ¦
Could it be she was great at playing chess?
âI will come another day.â Paige cut to the chase. âI heard you had a granddaughter today. Itâs nothing. I am just curious.â.
âWhat granddaughter? Why donât I know about it? Oh, I know⦠You must have heard the rumors and thought I have a new granddaughter. Impossible! I only think of you as my granddaughter. How about it? Have you changed your mind? There are many girls who want to be my granddaughter. You canât miss this great opportunity!â
Paige did not expect him to talk about it again and changed the topic, âLetâs talk about this later. Do you still remember the jade chess?â
âI do. Didnât I give it to you! Do you want to return it to me? I know you are a considerate and lovely girlâ¦â
âYou think too much.â Paige interrupted his fantasy, âI want to tell you I gave it away.â
âWhat? What? I love that chess! I gave it to you because I adore youâ¦â
âAre you sure you adore me?â
Hearing Paigeâs question, Carroll stuttered again, âYes, I doâ¦â
Because everyone could hear the call, Paige did not expose him but said, âOkay, I have my answers. If there is nothing else, I will hang up.â
âHey, hey, hey, you havenât told me when you will comeâ¦â Before Carroll could finish his words, Paige ended the call.
Everyone was stupefied!
Scott didnât expect Paige really knew Carroll, and Carroll admitted he gave her the chessâ¦
Adriannaâs face turned even sourer!
If Paige had the real deal, what was the chess Adrianna had bought with 30 million dollars?
âNo, impossibleâ¦â Adrianna shook her head in disbelief.
âAdrianna, have you been cheatedâ¦â Diana quickly said, âHavenât you friended Mr. Schultzâs granddaughter on Line? Hurry up and call her to ask what happenedâ¦â
âSince Paige has friended Mr. Schultz on Line, she can ask him to confront his so-called granddaughter,â Ashlyn said.
Everyoneâs gaze fell on Adrianna.
Adrianna was extremely embarrassed. She took out her phone and was just about to send a voice. call to the so-called granddaughter when Adrianna suddenly realized she had been blacklisted!
Noticing Adriannaâs expression was sour, Diana quickly asked what happened and learned Adrianna was blacklistedâ¦
The truth was revealed!
Adrianna was cheated of money. After the swindler received the money, she blacklisted Adriannaâ¦
âSo, she was cheated of moneyâ¦â
Rosa looked at Paige with a loving gaze. âI didnât expect you to even know Mr. Schultz⦠When Killian wanted to buy the chess from him, he refused⦠It seems he thinks highly of youâ¦â
Needless to say, Paigeâs chess skills must be superb!
