After a passionate night, both of them fell asleep and woke up when the sun rose the next day.
“What time is it?”
Hayden turned her body on the bed and sleepily looked at the figure at the edge of the bed.
Joseph was putting on his watch when he looked back at her, “It’s eleven o’clock now.”
“Eleven o’clock?”
Hayden immediately woke up and sat up from bed, “Why didn’t you wake me up?”
It was her first time here at the Beckham family’s old mansion and yet she woke up so late in the morning. If Mr. Beckham had known about this, her impression would definitely be affected.
“The servants came to call you three times. You didn’t wake up at all.”
“That’s impossible.” Hayden refuted while wearing her clothes, “I didn’t hear anything at all. Don’t fool me.”
“That’s because you were too tired last night. You were sleeping soundly.”
“Who’s tired?” Hayden blushed and murmured, “Don’t be so full of yourself.”
“Really? Then, you should have heard what I said to my servant just now.” Joseph turned around and leaned against the edge of the table. Then, he slowly teased her, “I said you were too tired last night, so you couldn’t have breakfast with Grandpa today.”
Upon hearing that, Hayden raised her head up in an instant and became furious, “You scoundrel...”
How thick-skinned was this man? How could he say these words out while keeping a straight face?
“Are you angry?” Joseph looked at her and pretended not to understand, “So, do you still want to have lunch with Grandpa?”
Hayden was so pissed that she couldn’t say anything. She got out of bed and went straight into the bathroom.
Her cheeks turned red after looking at herself in the mirror. Her neck was covered with many hickeys, “Joseph!”
She opened the bathroom door and exclaimed, “Look what you’ve done!”
These couldn’t be gone in a few days’ time. How was she going to work like this?
Joseph was sitting on a chair and looking at the magazine when he heard Hayden’s words. He stared at her for a while. Then, he helplessly tilted his head and shrugged,
“Hayden, this is something beyond control, but you could take you revenge and do the same thing on me.”
“You...” Hayden gritted her teeth as she spitted out a sentence after a moment, “Bring my foundation here.”
“Okay.”
Joseph had a smile on his face as he raised his brows and opened her bag.
Hayden stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom. Her white blouse was all buttoned up, but the two hickeys were still visible. She didn’t know if the foundation could cover it up, so she could only give it a try.
After a while, Joseph walked towards the bathroom door.
“Could you find it?” She didn’t look back at all.
“What is this?” Joseph asked her back.
Hayden looked back and saw the purple satin box in his hand. She was slightly startled, “It’s an accessory? I told you to bring my foundation over, what did you take this instead? Someone gave this to me as a present. It’s quite expensive, so don’t lose it. Put it back.”
When Joseph saw Hayden’s nervous reaction, he felt a little tense and asked, “Who gave this to you?”
“Jen...” As Hayden said this, she suddenly felt a hint of jealousy in Joseph’s words. She turned her gaze and took the foundation in his other hand. Then, she faced the mirror and began applying it onto her neck.
She muttered, “It’s a friend, from abroad.”
Joseph pissed her off early in the morning, so she wanted to see him in a humiliating position too.
