President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free novel Chapter 113

The room full of roses and the apology in the card eased her worries over these couple of days. But after she composed herself and sat down, she remained troubled about the situation.

Joseph was a responsible person although he looked cold and lofty. He was always responsible towards his woman or his child. She was clear about this after spending so much time with him.

But this was not the reason that she could be assured of leaving Noah with him.

Hayden was worried about Noah’s condition and maintained contact with the hospital. When she found out that Noah did not have food poisoning and his condition was caused by a cold and fever, instead of being relieved, she actually felt worse.

From her point of view, although Joseph kept saying that he doted on Noah and taken good care of him, she felt that he was not detailed enough. From the first time they met when the lamp almost fell onto him and thereafter he fell sick several times, it looked like he had not taken good care of the child.

She intended to find some time to have a good discussion with him about the child.

As she was thinking about it, her assistant Jeff knocked on the door and entered.

“Ms. Downey, the head office called and wants to do a spot check. Mr. Beckham and several directors will be coming to the hotel for an inspection. Should we make any preparations?”

Hayden came to her senses and said, “No need for any special preparations. Just do as per normal. When will they arrive?”

“The head office said that Mr. Beckham is already on his way. He should be here in fifteen minutes.”

“Okay, inform Mr. Brown who is in charge of the main lobby today and a few supervisors on duty to go with me to receive them. All the rest will attend to their respective duties.” After she instructed Jeff, she straightened her professional attire and walked out of her office calmly.

Joseph didn’t like anyone to put up a show for him. Since he and the directors wanted to come for an inspection, then they would want to see the regular everyday condition of the hotel. She was confident of herself and had nothing to be nervous about the inspection.

Not long after Hayden arrived at the lobby, three black cars stopped in front of the hotel. Two men in business suits who looked forty to fifty years old exited the cars. Needless to say, they were the directors and walked abreast Joseph into the hotel.

Hayden looked directly at Joseph and then thought about the fresh flowers in her office. She smiled sweetly and then nodded as she greeted, “Mr. Beckham.”

Mr. Brown greeted the other directors and then introduced them to Hayden, “I don’t have to introduce Mr. Beckham. These two gentlemen are Director Davis and Director Garcia. I believe Ms. Downey hasn’t met them before.”

Hayden bowed gently and reached out to shake their hands.

The two directors looked very stern and did not smile nor did they say anything. They only said that they wanted to see the hotel’s environment. Hayden arranged for two managers on duty to bring them around while she followed behind as she felt rather uneasy.

When the directors were looking at the suite, they started to point and comment about the color of the curtains. Joseph listened on one side and nodded occasionally. Hayden started to note down their comments in a notebook. Although she didn’t know what it was for, she certainly knew that she should remember what they said.

After the inspection, the directors wanted to hold a meeting in ten minutes with the middle and upper management of the hotel.

Mr. Brown went to arrange for the meeting while Hayden returned to her office to take prepare some meeting materials. Just as she reached the door, she met Joseph who just came out from the restroom.

Joseph looked at her and appeared surprised as he said, “There will be some VIPs coming for discussions in a couple of days. If all goes as planned, they would be staying at this hotel. To prevent any incidents, we’ve come here to inspect the environment.”

Joseph had not spoken to her since he said those harsh words to her at the hospital. He didn’t expect that Hayden didn’t seem to be affected by it as if she wasn’t even bothered by it.
