The CEO's Lovely Twins novel Chapter 333

The resistance in Hayden’s eyes made Stefan uncomfortable. Clenching his fists, he decided to confess everything to her after hesitating for a while.

“Hayden, come with me if you still believe. I’ll take you to a place.”

“What place?”

“You’ll know when you’re there. Everything I have done to approach the Beckhams is all there.”

The road was muddy after the snow, Hayden drove cautiously. She cruised in a community near the University of Public Security and entered a room on the fourth floor trailing Stefan when they got off.

There’s no decoration in the room, only a bed and a desk except for numerous books. Marked books and files filled a shelf.

“I lived here when I was a private detective.”

“But I haven’t been here for a long time.”

Hayden took a glance over the room. The room was dusty, it had to being long deserted.

“There on the shelf is everything I know about the Beckhams, I put them in a chronological order. My mom never told me anything about the Beckhams, so I have done some research.”

Hayden paused for a moment, then suspiciously, she walked to the shelf and pull out a notebook.

The date was three years ago, when Stefan just went to college.

It was a report cut from a newspaper on the first paper.

“Franklin Hawkins, CEO of ST Group resigns, Joseph Beckham, the only heir of the Beckhams takes over.”

Moving on were some records of the interviews Joseph had taken, along with Stefan’s notes, which included his own analysis on Joseph.

His analysis, at first, was limited to vocabulary such as “cold”, “shrewd”, “has a bias in business”. But later, words like “not so cold”, “kind of annoying” started to emerge.

All these were a teen’s self-talk, he shared them with nobody. For so many year, he had been focusing on his half-brother.

Hayden was deeply moved when she closed the book.

She put it back and whirled to study Stefan for a good while, then she asked.

“Why would you think of doing this in the first place? There’s gotta be a reason. You guys never met, what prompted you to do the research on him?”

“Because of my mom.” He replied instantly. “When I was a kid, she used to cry while holding a picture, yelling Joseph’s name in her dreams. I was confused at first. Then I knew she had another son called Joseph, and she was evicted by him.”

People see things differently.

Hayden could understand the grudge Stefan held for his mother. But at the same, she had to stand in Joseph’s shoes and think of the harms that Rebekah brought him.

“So you want Joseph to accept your mother again?”

“Right.”
