President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free novel Chapter 21

Joseph heard someone calling him and took a glimpse. He was startled when he saw the little girl who was waving at him and he felt her familiar. Noah took the opportunity to escape from his arms and ran away, and he could only chase after him. Hayden was covering her face and she suddenly felt someone grabbing her calf. She looked down and met a pair of big watery eyes. The little boy was hugging one of her legs with a thrilled look.

“Mister! We’ve met each other before!” Stella stood near the table and blinked while staring at Joseph with a pair of big dark eyes. Joseph thought back for a while and only then he was able to combine the image of the reckless little girl that bumped into him back at the airport with the girl before him. A soft light appeared in his eyes.

“How did you know each other?” Hayden was still in a daze. “This is the mister that gave me chocolates that day, mommy!” Stella turned around and explained to her with her eyes gleamed. “What a coincidence to have met the mister here. Did you know this mister too mommy?” Having heard her question, Hayden’s look froze and she replied, “He’s…mommy’s boss in the company.”

Joseph stood beside the table and asked with little superiority, “So this is your daughter?”

“Yes.”

Having heard her reply, Joseph had an inexplicable feeling. She had actually gotten married and had kids? He then digressed from the topic of conversation and asked, “How’s your hand?” That question was exactly what Hayden was afraid of. She then braced herself and stuttered while dragging Noah out from under the table and moved him to her front as her shield, “It’s, it’s not yet fully recovered. I can’t quite use it now.”

“Then do have a longer break. You don’t have to come to work that soon.” Hayden was taken aback by Joseph’s words. When had he become such an easygoing person? “My mom’s hand has recovered now! She could go to work starting from tomorrow!” Stella suddenly chimed in.

“Stella Downey!” Hayden shot her a glare for exposing her. Yet Joseph did not take her words seriously and was treating it as a child’s nonsense. He then changed the topic. “I have to thank you regarding Noah’s matter. I didn’t have time to pay you a visit at the hospital back then. Now that I’m free, it turns out that you’re already discharged. I’ve always wanted to thank you in person with Noah.”

“It’s okay.” Hayden shook her head. “Now that you’ve granted me holidays, I’ll take that as a thank you. Plus, it’s my duty as an employee to ensure my clients’ safety.”
