President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free novel Chapter 173

"I don't want to go against you. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Don't you think so? Miss Sanchez."

She vaguely felt of herself falling into a trap by Viola as she heard the female voice from the other end of the call. There would be big trouble if she didn't quit in time.

Addison took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "The reason you did this is to get back at Hayden and Joseph just because you feel yourself losing everything that you could have. Isn't it just money? How much money do you want to end this? I can give it all to you."

The person at the other end snorted, "I hope that you can say the same thing in front of Joseph."

"You…"

"Do you still think you're a kind person, Miss Sanchez?" Viola's voice was oppressive, "Don't you think I have helped you on getting yourself back with Joseph?"

Addison was baffled as she recalled Joseph's caring attitude during her stay in the hospital.

Before she got married, Joseph treated her well, but she just took everything for granted back then. She could feel it only after being wronged out there. And now, he would only show such caring after she saved his son.

Thinking about it left a sour taste in her mouth.

"What else do you want from me?"

Viola sneered on the call, hearing this, as if she had expected it, "Don't worry. I won't ask you to do anything. You just go according to your plan. Try to get Joseph back to you."

Addison was speechless.

After hanging up the phone, Addison was in a daze as she sat cross-legged on the hospital ward bed. Viola's gloomy voice was lingering in her mind.

…

Jeff retrieved the dim sum chef, Arnold's exact address from the company's staff profiles. Hayden followed the directions given, but she was to a locked door.

A young graduate couple lived here for more than two months. According to them, they only knew that the landlady was a middle-aged woman, but her surname wasn't Bevis. They didn't know who Arnold Bevis was.

Three days later, after searching a few places, Hayden got to inquire after Arnold on an island in Zhangzhou City, "Arnold Bevis, the one that makes pastries, right? I know him."

A dark-skinned fisherman just came back from the sea, carrying a bucket of oysters pried out from the reef wall. He was wiping his sweat off as he observed Hayden, "We live in the same village and I heard that he just came back recently. What's the matter?"

"He is one of my colleague. He left something in the company when he resigned. So the company sends me here to return it to him."

"You're from the same company?" The middle-aged man's eyes lit up, showing his admiration to her, "I heard that Arnold Bevis worked as a chef in a high-class hotel, and it's well-known globally. Are you from that hotel too?"

Hayden nodded, smiling.

"Come. Follow me." The man was delighted and led Hayden into the village enthusiastically.

After walking along with the sparse village houses for about ten minutes, they stopped at the door of a well-kept whitewashed courtyard. The gate was opened wide, and there were talking sounds coming from the inside.

"This is it. The Bevis family is huge. Arnold 's brother lives in this building in the front. Walk in and say hello to his brother. Walking further is where he lives."

The fisherman who led the way spoke in detail. They chatted about a lot of things in the village along their way. And Hayden probably had an understanding of Arnold's family status in her mind.
