The CEO's Lovely Twins novel Chapter 155

There was dead silence in the conference room.

Chelsea could barely stand, holding the corner of the table and trembling.

She was overwhelmed with shame and rage, wishing to have Hayden murdered.

She couldn’t believe that Hayden had filmed these unpleasant scenes and also showed them to Freddie. Hayden used such a trick to threaten her, ruining her only chance to be together with Freddie.

“So, do you read or not?”

After a long moment, Chelsea gritted her teeth, “I’ll read it.”

Before leaving the conference room, Hayden unplugged the USB flash drive and brushed it off, “Besides, please let the Strong Wind Media and also your internet water armies to delete all those nonsensical remarks from the internet. Otherwise, you bear your own consequences.”

Chelsea stood at the entrance, with her back facing Downey, gritting her teeth, and she uttered, “I got it.”

Let’s wait and see, Hayden Downey.

The press conference ended successfully. Chelsea, as one of the litigants, the netizens sympathized with her, and they would believe whatever she had said. So, after explaining clearly that she and Hayden were just Freddie’s sisters, it had scorched the rumours.

All the reporters were disappointed as the media had got this wrong, and they had nothing to report about it.

“I couldn’t believe that this had something to do with her.” Freddie handed a glass of water to Hayden, “Why did she do this?”

“Are you pretending to know nothing about it?” Hayden glanced at him, “Didn’t you know that Chelsea always had me in her crosshairs back then just because she had a crush on you? Ironically, you ignored everyone in the Downey family except me.”

“Had a crush on me?” Freddie was stunned, “I didn’t even think of this.”

“That’s why she found a toy boy that looks like you too.” Hayden curled her lips, “Just that he’s hard-core.”

Hayden would not take this to threaten Chelsea if it wasn’t for her being out of line. After all, it was better to make friends than to make enemies. She wouldn’t want to have a stalemate between the two of them.

But then, it seemed that they had no turning back.

Strong Wind Media had announced that they were willing to apologise to Freddie and the other two parties and also compensated them for their loss. They had also fired the reporter and editor who were involved in this case to settle this case.

Joseph was back from his business trip, and the crisis was settled already.

“It worked out well, right?”

At the dining table, Hayden was resting her chin upon her hands, eager for praise.

Joseph looked at her, “Well done.”

“So, it didn’t cause any impact to you and the group, right?” Hayden’s words meant more than what she said.

Joseph didn’t respond to her, but he took a small square box out from his bag and handed it to Hayden, “Open it and have a look.”

Hayden froze for a moment, being confused.

She mumbled, “I’m not ready yet. You can put it away first.”

She was still hiding many things in her heart that she never told Joseph. And many things that she hadn’t found out yet. How could she just marry him like this?

Joseph was puzzled, looking at her, “What are you ready for?”

He opened the box after saying that, “I saw this in Italy. I think it fits you perfectly. So, I bought it.”

Inside the box was a pair of pearl earrings, white and highly lustrous.

Hayden’s face fell, feeling awkward, and said, “It’s a pair of earrings…”
