Chapter 1053
On paper, he’s Paige’s dad, and he’s a Sutton.
To the Scotts, they were small fry, not worth the time of day.
The Scotts must look down on Paige before.
With the way things were now, there’s no way Paige could turn it around!
“Well, if you’ve made up your mind, then I’ve got nothing else to say!” Grant put away his phone, ready to make a
move.
“You’re going to see my parents, aren’t you?” Bailie asked nonchalantly.
Grant was taken aback.
“…I’m not…”
“Cut the crap; your acting sucks. Only Peyton would fall for it.” Bailie said, taking out his phone, “If you’re looking
for my parents, I can save you the trouble. I’ll call them for you.”
Grant was dumbfounded. What was he getting at?

better? Maybe I’ll just head to H City and take her to R Country for a shopping spree! Or maybe…the A Country?
Yeah, let’s go buy some mines! I heard there’s a new ruby mine!”
Kate just kept going.
“Mom, is Dad there?” Bailie asked very softly.
Grant sat back down.
“Honey, it’s Bailie.”
After a beat, Blake Scott’s deep voice echoed, “Did you finish the medicine? I’ll have someone send it over
tomorrow!”
“Why send someone? I can go myself; I want to see Paige!”
Bailie glanced at Grant, cutting off the impending argument with, “Mom, someone’s here to badmouth Paige.”
The argument halted.
“Who?” Kate’s tone was instantly hostile.
“You know, Paige’s ex–stepdad.” Bailie replied.
Kate raised her voice: “The one who cheated, beat his ex–wife, and drove her to death?”
“That’s him.”
“I didn’t hit her!” Grant felt wronged: “I just accidentally pushed her.”
“Oh boy, he’s there with you?” Kate was surprised.
“Yep, he came to badmouth her to me, but I saw through it. I figured he was going to try it with you guy’s next, so I
just called.”
Grant felt helpless.
This family was…off.
“What’s he badmouthing her about?” Blake asked, his voice heavy.
Grant clung to his words like a lifeline. Blake, being the head of the Scott family, was surely reliable.
Bailie beat him to it: “Apparently, Paige dated his son for a few years before.”
Grant felt like he’d been struck by lightning.
Blake just grunted, “They’re not blood related; dating isn’t a big deal, right? Your mom even…”
“Blake, I told you not to bring that up!”

What was he trying to pull?” “You’re overthinking; he and his wife were just matching! You’re bringing up stuff from
when I was fifteen; what’s wrong with you?”
“Mom, Dad, we’ll talk later.”
Bailie cut the call as an argument was about to break out again.
Grant was at a loss.
The Scotts‘ acceptance of Paige was beyond his expectations.
They were so protective of her…
This was something Grant had not anticipated at all.
“Are you happy now?” Bailie looked at him.
He’d seen it at the funeral home. Grant wanted a private chat with Paige, probably to use her past with Logan
against her.
That’s why Bailie wanted to see Grant.
Always going back and forth was a waste of time, and Grant wasn’t worth it. So, he decided to nip it in the bud.
