President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free novel Chapter 272

Most of ST Group’s staff clocked off at 5, so did Hayden. But the company’s financial affairs were really a mess, prompting Joseph to work extra hours.

“Are you sure that you don’t want to leave with me?” standing at the door of Joseph’s office, Hayden knocked, smiling.

Joseph shifted his focus from those numbers onto Hayden right away when he heard her. Her smile revitalized him. “It’s OK. I’ll go home soon as I finish this category. I t won’t take me long.”

“You make me feel so bad. How about I give you a raise in your wage?”

“Is that so? You’re feeling bad? I doubt it.”

He squinted, beckoned at Hayden, “come here.”

“Change your mind?”

Casually, Hayden walked in, stopped right in front of his desk, her body slightly reclining forward.

“It’s not too late to change your mind, I’ll be here with you if you say yes.”

In response, Joseph said nothing but pulled Hayden close to himself, leaving a peck on her lips before she could react.

The kiss made Hayden squirm. She broke away from Joseph and looked backward. Nervously, she muttered, “the door’s open, what are you doing?”

Joseph working here had already unleashed a storm of rumors. The board would not go easy on them if they got caught flirting in the office.

But Joseph was calm, as if nothing had happened. His eyebrows raised slightly, he said.

“Alright, you could leave.”

“Why? Are you mad?”

Joseph glanced over her with an ambiguous smile, “I just think that a kiss would be enough to recharge my batteries. Or, do you want any further actions?”

“No, I don’t,” her face reddening, Hayden understood what Joseph meant by recharge instantly, “I’m leaving.”

She fled out of the office without hesitation.

The smile in Joseph’s eyes deepened as he looked at her back.

In the garage, Hayden confronted Mark when she’s trying to start her car.

“Miss Hayden.”

“Mark?”Surprised to see him, Hayden asked, “What are you doing here? Are you looking Joseph?”

Mark nodded kindly, “indeed.”

“He’s on the tenth floor, you could take the elevator right there.”

Pointing at the elevator, Hayden said politely.”

“Thanks. But before that, I wonder if Miss Hayden has any odd moment? I’d like to have a talk with you?”

“Sure. You haven’t had dinner, right? I know a great restaurant in the neighborhood.”
