President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free novel Chapter 61

In a café bar on the first floor of the ST Group, there were barely any people around although it was almost time for dinner.

The waiter served coffee to a table in a corner of the café while nodding in Hayden’s direction. He revealed a warm smile at her to show his familiarity with her.

Hayden always worked in the hall on the first floor, so she was very familiar with the employees working in all sorts of shops here.

“Dad, why did you come” She was stirring her coffee as she asked anxiously.

There was a man in his fifties seated opposite her. He wore brown suits which made him look well-bred, and his black sideburn was littered with some traces of silver hair. An expensive-looking watch which probably cost a million yuan was gleaming faintly as it reflected the lighting in the café bar.

“Your sister attended Michelle’s engagement ceremony this Saturday and she told me she had met you. It was her who told me that you’re working here.”

Hayden had long been anticipating that Chelsea would go back home and add several layers of fabrication to her story, so she instantly became cold and emotionless, “What did she actually say I’m sure she wouldn’t say anything nice, I suppose”

Bentley frowned and replied, “She had just told me about your workplace. Why do you think that she would badmouth you Hayden, have you misunderstood your sister somehow”

Hayden tightened her grip on the spoon in her hands and there was barely any colour on her face, “What kind of misunderstanding would I have with her We just have very different personalities that never mesh well.”

“I know that Chelsea is always ill-tempered, but she still cares about her little sister despite that. We are family after all, so she would be more sincere towards you than any outsider could be. Hayden…”

“Dad.” Hayden interrupted him, “Could it be that you’re here to mediate between my sister and me”

Upon hearing that, Bentley glanced at her briefly and replied, “I heard that you are now together with Mr. Beckham from the ST Group. Is this rumour real”

Her father’s inquiry was not surprising to say the least.

Seeing that Chelsea had brought up her encounter with Hayden in the engagement ceremony, she would definitely bring up the news about her and Joseph since this news had caused a ruckus at that time. Even if she didn’t mention this, her father would have most probably heard of this from his friends. Therefore, for someone as cunning and sly as Chelsea, of course she wouldn’t allow the chance to let her father learn of this news from her own mouth to slip by.

She must have considered the possibility that her father would have known about her antics of finding fault with Hayden in the ceremony.

“What if it is real What if it’s fake” Hayden looked downwards without denying anything and at the same time, she wouldn’t admit this fact so casually.

“You never have a lot of interest in how I have carried out my life all these years, so you should also turn away from this matter too. I will be able to handle this on my own.”

Bentley didn’t get angry because of Hayden’s cold shoulder, and instead he had a worried look on is face as if he was really worried about her.

“I heard that he has a son. If you are really with him, you should be prepared that there will a lot of things you have to consider thoroughly.”

Hayden slowly raised her head, “What if I told you that I have a child too”

Almost too slowly, Bentley’s expression started to transform.

Hayden was just waiting for the moment her father had lost it and gotten enraged. Ever since she was mature, she always wanted her father to vent his anger at her so that she could grab this chance and launch all of her confusion and dissatisfaction at him.

However, Bentley only let his expression freeze for a moment before taking a sip out of his coffee in an attempt to regain his composure. After putting down the cup, his face had returned to its gentleness, “When did it happen”

“The reason I went overseas five years ago was to give birth to that child. I didn’t want to bring him home.”

Hayden replied perfunctorily.

“Then… he is five years old now.”

Hayden furrowed his brows which indicated that he didn’t really calm the turbulence in his heart yet, but at the same time he didn’t look like he was overcome with anger too. After a moment of silence, he asked, “Is it a boy or a girl”
