The CEO's Lovely Twins novel Chapter 107

Joseph became more relieved after Magnus pulled Benjamin away. He looked at Hayden and said, “Let’s go, you’re not his mother. Magnus will take good care of him.”

Hayden came to her senses, looked into the room, and then rubbed her nose and smiled awkwardly, “It’s a habit. Benjamin is about the same age as Freddie. I miss my brother and that’s why I felt like caring for him. Perhaps others will find this strange.” It was better that she didn’t mention Freddie but once she did, Joseph’s expression turned even darker.

“Do you treat brothers and sisters as trash that you can pick up anywhere?” Joseph scoffed.

“Trash?” Hayden glared at him and demanded, “What trash? I accidentally hit Benjamin, how many times must I say this?”

“Then what about Freddie?” Joseph glared at her and continued, “Was he hit by you as well? Looks like you are fearless since young. To think that you went to the underground fight club when you were fifteen!”

Hayden was stunned, “How do you know about this?”

From Joseph’s tone, he had already done a thorough background check on Freddie. Joseph even found out that Freddie was a fighter at the underground fight club before he was adopted by the Downey family.

“Are there very few people who knew about this?” Joseph’s expression became rather stern and continued, “He wanted to become a celebrity but his pasts were liabilities and if they weren’t cleansed, who knows when it will resurface and deal him a massive blow.”

What he said sent a chill down Hayden’s spine and then she realized that she had not contacted Freddie for a while after she came back from the Maldives.

Hayden also heaved a sigh of relief when she went along with Joseph’s suggestion to let Benjamin stay at the hotel. That night she packed Stella’s luggage and planned to take her to the office the next day before sending her to Joseph’s place after work.

“Noah!” Stella released Hayden’s hand and ran towards the main lobby. Hayden looked over and saw Mark holding onto Noah’s hand and looked like they had just arrived.

“As soon as little Noah woke up, he kept insisting on seeing you, Ms. Downey. Since today was a weekday, I figured out that you would be working and so I brought little Noah here.”

Mark looked and saw Hayden pulling a kiddie suitcase. His eyes lit up and said, “This must be little Stella’s suitcase. I’ll put the suitcase in the car first and I can take them back together later.”

It looked like Joseph had informed his servants about Stella going over to his place for the summer holidays.

Hayden didn’t reject and gave the luggage to Mark. With one kid on either side of her, she led them towards the reception room and arranged for someone to bring them some fruits and snacks. She told them tenderly, “I still have to work and cannot stay with you. Just play here and don’t run about, can you do that? Stella must look after Noah, okay?”

On hearing, Stella immediately jumped down from the sofa, saluted, and said, “I guarantee that I will complete the mission.”

Hayden smiled warmly and left the reception room.

She could stay with the kids on a regular day but today there was a group of film crew that would arrive to stay at the hotel. She looked at the name list and noticed that Viola was on the list. Thus, she felt that today could be tricky and she must not be distracted.

She just arrived at the office and before long, the phone rang to inform her that the group had arrived.
