The Rise of Dragon Temple

Chapter 7

The current Paige was very different from what he remembered. At the time, she was wearing a pair of

old jeans. Even though they were far apart, Joseph noticed the fatigue in her. Of course, ‘Paige’s

beauty remained unchanged. Otherwise, she would not be the cause of this incident. Joseph watched

silently with his heart aching. At the gate of the villa, Bethany took Paige’s arm and almost pleaded,

“Paig, wait for a bit more. Soon, my father will be back!” “Please trust me. I’ve already told him about © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

your situation. He’ll definitely help you.” “Don’t be impulsive, okay? If you go with that scum, Jaylah,

your life will be ruined! Please wait for a bit longer.” Bethany did not expect her best friend to be so

stubborn. Ever since Paige arrived at Apren City, she would rather work in the restaurant as a waitress

than go to Bethany for help. Why would she choose to suffer like this? If not for the fact that Chloe had

been kidnapped, Paige would not have sought Bethany’s help at all. Paige’s eyes were red and

swollen, while tears kept flowing down her cheeks. She seemed exhausted at the time. “Beth, you saw

the video sent by Jaylah as well… He made Chloe eat pig food. How could he do such a thing? As her

mother, I feel sorry for her…” Paige continued crying. “Please thank your father on my behalf, but I

really can’t wait any longer. I can’t watch my daughter continue suffering!” “Tonight… Tonight is the

deadline he gave me. If I don’t go over, Chloe may not survive tonight…” “Are you going to submit to

your fate?” Bethany said angrily. “Perhaps… This is my destiny…” “Paig.” Bethany continued with a

serious tone, “You still refuse to tell me who Chloe’s father is. Now that both you and your daughter

suffered so much, why hasn’t he show up?” Paige trembled, with a flash of pain in her eyes, and then

smiled: “I don’t know where he is… Perhaps he doesn’t even know that he has a daughter…” Bethany

was in disbelief.

“He doesn’t know anything. In fact, he also doesn’t remember anything… Besides, he has suffered

enough. Why should I trouble him?” Bethany had no words to describe her feelings at the moment. The

only thing she could do was to stop Paige from having silly thoughts. At this moment, three black

sedans stopped in front of them. A group of men dressed in black walked out of the car. Amongst them,

the leader was a young man who dressed fashionably, but his head was wrapped with a bandage at

the time. His arrogant face was full of viciousness and resentment. Indeed, this person was Jaylah

Kennedy! After getting off the car, Jaylah said coldly to Paige, “If you knew this would happen, why did

you have to suffer so much? Even if I did not father that b*stard, I would spoil her for your sake. In fact,

she would not need to worry about food and clothing! Do you have to go this far?” At the sight of

Jaylah, Paige’s eyes were full of hatred and killing intent. She was so angry that her whole body was

trembling. “Get your *ss over here!” Jaylah frowned. Angered by the look in Paige’s eyes, he shouted,

“If you don’t listen to me, I’ll kill your daughter!” No one knew that Jaylah was, in fact, incredibly anxious

at this time. An hour ago, he received news that someone had already rescued Chloe. To avoid getting

into trouble, he came here personally and issued a final ultimatum. Sure enough, Paige chose to yield.

Breaking free from Bethany’s grip, she gritted her teeth and walked toward Jaylah with resentment.

Bethany wanted to stop her, but she did not know how to persuade Paige. “Bethany, you’d better not

interfere with my matter. If you annoy me, I’ll cause you trouble as well,” Jaylah threatened. After all, he

was afraid that Bethany would stop Paige from leaving with him. Under Jaylah’s pressure, Paige

eventually got on the car. Thus, Jaylah left with his men. Looking at her best friend being taken away,

Bethany cried regretfully. After all, she knew that Paige’s life was over! In the car. Glancing at Paige,

who held a cold expression, Jaylah warned, “Don’t forget what you promised me.”

Paige’s eyes were fixed on Jaylah. For a moment, she wanted to murder him. After all, this scum

tortured her daughter! However, she dared not scold him. Feeling desperate, she slowly closed her

eyes. Since she could not resist, she had no choice but to face it silently. “Joseph… Are you still alive?”

Paige thought with sadness, “Perhaps you don’t even know that you have a daughter. If you are still

alive… Maybe you can still meet Chloe… Joseph, where are you? Chloe and I both need you…” Deep

down, she knew that she was being rather hopeful. After all, Joseph did not know that she had given

birth to a child, so it would be impossible for him to be in Frogua! “F*ck, who the h*ll is this?” Jaylah

cursed angrily. “Crash him to death!” Jaylah ordered furiously. Someone was standing in the middle of

the road in the middle of the night, and it seemed that he was trying to stop the car. How could Jaylah

not be angry? With the accelerator reaching the floor, the car instantly sped forward. Looking up

subconsciously, Paige saw the figure in front of her getting closer and closer. In that instant, the figure

in her mind suddenly overlapped with the person physically in front of her. Before she could react,

Jaylah’s car had already arrived in front of the man. Just when everyone thought that this person would

die immediately, the person standing on the road raised his hand and clapped. Then, the whole car

stopped and its rear was already tilted up. After recognizing the face of the person who stopped the

car, Paige was instantly shocked. He was… Joseph! “How is this possible?” She was thinking about

him moments ago. How could he suddenly appear? Was this an illusion? Paige was staring at the

person who stopped the car with one hand, while Joseph was also glancing at her at the same time.

Although they were separated by a car and a layer of glass, they looked at each other
