The coldness in Joseph's eyes disappeared for a moment, and his hands gradually warmed up. The dissatisfaction in his heart gradually dispersed. Then he held Hayden's hand.
"I'm sorry." Hayden shook her head and thoughtfully said. "It's okay. I know you're not blaming me." Joseph pulled her into his arms, and he felt very tired. "Hayden, in fact, for so many years I have thought about when and how she would come back to see me. I am her son after all, but for twenty years she has not come back once." When he saw her in Lanxi town, he had many complicated feelings. Who could understand it?
Hayden had some words to say to him, but it didn't seem to be the right time. If she spoke for Rebekah and Benjamin, she was afraid it would be counterproductive, so she didn't mention it again. And she still had some questions in her mind..
She picked up the two little kids in the evening to go to the hotel for dinner. Because it was to discuss the wedding date, Aurora Cook's family was also invited. Harrison was sitting on the main seat facing south. When he saw the two children, his majestic look became soft and asked the two children to sit over.
"We've been waiting for half a day. Hayden, why did you come so late?" The person who spoke was Hayden's aunt, who was not yet fifty years old, with her fur coat hanging on the chair. Her eyes became shrewd when Hayden entered the door.
"It’s because I just picked up the kids." Hayden faintly explained. She was not familiar with Anna. As a child in the Barnett family during those years she was always with her grandfather. She occasionally saw Mrs. Zack and she only could meet Anna when the New Year came.
This time Mr. Beckham called them to come to discuss the wedding date was also because he thought they were her families. And Nanking’s custom was that uncle was important. In the wedding, uncle was to sit on the main table seat. That was why they were invited.
"I heard that both children are in one kindergarten--the Blue Castle Kindergarten, aren’t they?" Anna smiled enthusiastically. "It’s time for my two kids to go to school. I have visited many schools for the two children in Nanking but none is suitable. I hear that Stella is in that kindergarten so I go to visit that school. It’s really nice. I want to know whether you can also let my children get admission. They will be good friends with Stella."
Hearing that, Hayden frowned, "Mrs. Zack, you can just apply for the kindergarten by yourself." Hayden was speechless since they were even not familiar with each other.
"If I can apply directly, why do I ask you to do that? Hayden, you can just help me."
"What help do you need?" Blossomt couldn't stand it anymore and coldly said, "Are you here today to talk about your grandsons?" Blossomt had a high status in the Barnett family. Although some people did not want to listen to her, they had to respect her. Anna immediately closed his mouth and she felt annoyed.
Blossomt looked at Mr. Beckham and said lightly. "I'm sorry, Mr. Beckham." Harrison was as usual, as if nothing happened, "Nothing, Joseph, let Hayden sit down. We are just to eat together. There is no need to be too formal. You can just say what you want." Hayden glanced at Joseph, who sat down next to Harrison and Hayden sat next to Blossomt.
The room had a big round table. It was enough for twelve people to sit. The Beckham family came with two people, Harrison and Joseph. The rest were people from the Barnett family.
