The CEO's Lovely Twins novel Chapter 243

“The words “I am his wife” felt like a thousand needles in Joseph’s ears till his eardrums hurt, his face paled immediately,

“What are you talking about?”

“A nominal marriage is also considered a marriage.” Hayden raised her eyebrows, boldly continuing, “In nominal terms, we are indeed legal husband and wife.”

“Hayden.” Joseph was seething with anger, “You’re doing this on purpose.”

She was definitely saying all this to provoke him.

Hayden took a look at him and feigned ignorance, “On purpose? What I’m saying is the truth. Or else, can you tell me what was wrong with what I just said?”

Joseph frowned, “Then what are we?”

“Us?”

Hayden crossed her arms and took a look at Joseph from top to bottom, “Is this unclear? We only have a normal relationship just like any other exes that broke up.”

Since he was back from Shanghai, Joseph had made a change to his previously cold behaviour. He had gotten someone to send food and flowers to Green Lemon Clothing’s workplace every day, regardless of rain or sunshine.

Nevertheless, Hayden was not someone that accepted sugar-coated time bombs. Joseph had already made a mistake, let alone he hadn’t even officially apologized to her. Even if he did, she hadn’t decided whether she intended to forgive him.

Hence as of now, they are indeed just ex-es.

However, Joseph seemed as if he does not think the same way, replied seriously,

“I think you recalled wrong, I’ve never broken up with you.”

“Oh really?” Hayden looked at him seriously, “But I seem to hear that you told the police officer the other night that we’re not in a relationship?”

After their argument and break up that night, she had made a police report in anger. When being interrogated by the police officer, Joseph had denied their relationship. If not for his special status, he would have already been charged with rape and remanded.

Things had passed, but she was someone that held grudges. Sulking, she said,

“A man should be held to his words, what you said was a nail in the coffin, you can’t retract it anymore.”

Joseph was rendered speechless, he clenched his fists and replied, “Magnus is getting bolder and bolder.”

“Hey, stop blaming Magnus, he didn’t tell me anything about this.”

Hayden took a look at him, and sarcastically said, “You can’t even tell who said this, no wonder your position got usurped, I think your brain isn’t as great as what people say.”

Joseph’s face was filled with embarrassment.

This woman, once she had gotten hold of my weakness, was she planning to use it to her advantage forever?

Looking at a speechless Joseph, Hayden stopped provoking him,

“I have something coming up, I’ll leave first.”

Joseph quickly replied, “I’ll send you.”

“No need for that,” Hayden declined politely, smiling in a distant and polite manner, “I drove here on my own, what’s more it’s not on the way.”

Both she and Joseph needed some time to cool down and think about whether they were indeed suitable for each other. What’s more from the current situation, the things that she needed to consider were definitely way more than Joseph.

The root of their arguments was all related to their kid and the secret in the past years. She needed to clarify what happened in the past, before deciding whether she can indeed continue their relationship.

Joseph was rooted on the spot, his brows were knotted while looking at the back of Hayden who never turned back.

He suddenly understood what Kevin had told him before he left.

Women held grudges and loved to talk about past mistakes. If she didn’t start talking about your past mistakes, this meant that she was definitely holding on to your weaknesses, and using it to her advantage at the right time, rendering you speechless.

This was exactly what was happening now.

What he had said at the police station in the midst of his anger was now being used by Hayden as a trump card to reject him.

Although he was unwilling to accept this, he had inflicted this on himself, death upon himself.
