The CEO's Lovely Twins novel Chapter 180

Magnus had been standing guard at the door of the rest room, and from time to time he would check his watch.

The two of them had been inside for more than fifteen minutes.

Addison had approached him to pry into their meeting, but she was stopped short by him. Based on the flow of things, it was likely that the two of them would mend old wounds.

As he pondered this, there was a rustle behind him, and Hayden emerged from the room.

“Ms. Downey.”

“You don’t need to refer me as that. I am no longer a manager working in the hotel.” Hayden swept her gaze over Magnus. The look on her face was very distant and disengaged.

Just as Magnus was still in a daze, Joseph came out of the room too, and he was in an extremely foul mood.

He felt his heart go cold and bitter. This scene didn’t look like they were getting back together at all. Most likely they had gone through another scuffle, and it might be too late to mend anything.

The banquet had already started, and the members of the Sanchez family were carrying around some champagnes and greeting the guests.

After Hayden had come out, she immediately joined Freddie and Alayna, and they were joined by Cleveland shortly. They were all huddled up together, and Cleveland would introduce them to the other guests there from time to time.

“Since when did big brother become so close to those few?” Addison pulled her mother close and asked with confusion.

Cleveland’s mother, Elizabeth, was in her sixties, but she spared no efforts in maintaining her appearance. She still looked elegant and outstanding. After shooting a glance in the distance, her eyes lit up, “Oh? You are right, why is your brother so close to those few? Who is that woman? Is she married?”

Addison’s mother was Taiwanese, and there was a coquettish accent to her voice which was impossible to change after decades of using it. She called her family members weird names such as calling her eldest son big brother, the second son as little brother and Addison as little sister. The three siblings were helpless about that.

“Which one are you asking about? Addison looked into the distance with some wariness in her eyes, “There are two women there.”

“I am talking about that woman in a black evening dress. I seem to see her talking to big brother all the time. Judging from the fact that big brother never talks to any woman, could it be that she is his girlfriend?”

She was talking about Hayden.

Addison felt a secret rush of joy in her heart, “That woman is unmarried, and her name is Hayden Downey. She is one of the employees working under Joseph. Mum, do you like her?”

“She appears to look fine, but I wonder about her ability as a wife. You also know that your previous sister-in-law is not a family person. She has no problem divorcing big brother without a second thought.”

“Of course she would make a fine wife. She has a daughter, and she is raising her daughter well.”

“She has a daughter?” Elizabeth revealed a shocked expression on her face, “She looks so young. I can’t picture her having a daughter already.”

“Yes, I think she had a divorce long time ago. She has been raising that daughter alone, which is something difficult. However, based on the prestige of our family, it wouldn’t be appropriate to let someone who has divorced and has a child marry big brother, would it?”

Addison was testing her mother’s thoughts on this matter.

As expected, her mother didn’t mind one bit. With a wave of her hand, there was an innocent and pure glint in her eyes, “Why did that matter? As long as big brother likes her, there is nothing wrong with her already having a child. What’s more, big brother has a child too, and it would be nice to have an accompaniment for his child. Let me introduce myself over there, little sister.”

“Hey, mum…”

Addison pretended to stop her but that didn’t stop her mother. While snickering secretly, she followed her mother.

If her mother was able to put her big brother and Hayden together, wouldn’t it be the perfect chance to resolve one of the difficulties in her life?

Hayden was mocking Joseph for his previous question in front of Alayna in one corner, which made Alayna jump up in fury. Hayden had to suppress her so that she wouldn’t create a ruckus.

“What kind of stupid question is he asking? The two of them are both his own child. Is he a moron?”

“Just let it go, he doesn’t know anyway.”
