The CEO's Lovely Twins novel Chapter 85

“No, I don’t want to go to that house…” Her intermittent sleep talk was heard and there was a sympathetic look on Joseph’s tense face. He was already thirteen when his father passed away. Although his mother was not there, he still had his grandpa who raised him since young.

His grandpa was still alive and healthy until today, he was energetic and had always enjoyed opposing him. Yet Hayden was different, she had lost her mother shortly after she was born. Although her father was still alive, he had started another family.

After having lived for a few years with her grandpa, her grandpa passed away. She was then accepted back into the Downey family by her father, yet no matter how, she was in an awkward position. She was supposed to be the rightful owner of the house, yet it turned out she was the one living under someone else’s roof.

His only best friend since childhood, Kevin Jackman had used to comment that he was stubborn. He once thought it was the environment that made one stubborn, yet in regards to the environment Hayden grew up with, she should have lived a more stubborn life compared to him.

However, it turned out she had lived so freely that she even rejected the identity as the second mistress of the Downey family and worked as a manager at a hotel. He used to think he had known her very well, that she was only an ordinary woman who was astute in her work, but was brainless in daily life. Yet as he got along with her for a long while, he realized there was so much he did not know about her.

It was raining more and more heavily. Joseph frowned. He gazed at the foggy ocean and asked, “How long could we reach the shore?”

“We’re almost there, please calm down, the rain here usually stops after five to ten minutes.” The guy explained while steering the boat. He was trying to use the highest speed to return to the shore. After bringing both of them back to the hotel, Joseph realized it was still stormy outside when half an hour had passed.

The weather station only then issued a rainstorm alert and all the fishing boats on the sea surface retreated urgently. Some small boats had capsized in the ocean and the rescue team was sent to rescue. “Mr. Beckham, you…” Several show runners of the Ray-Trace Media were waiting for Freddie’s news at the main hall of the hotel. Seeing Joseph bringing Hayden back, they were all startled.

“Get a doctor,” without any bullshit, Joseph said curtly. He carried Hayden upstairs with the mouth of the show runners all agape and eyes widened.

“She’s just seasick. Since she’s not on the boat now, she doesn’t have to take pills. I suppose due to getting wet by the rain, she has some fever. She’ll be alright after taking antipyretic and have a sleep.”

After being diagnosed that there was not much problem in her, the doctor was brought out of the ward by the show runners. Joseph followed them out too. After sending the doctor away, one of the show runners turned around and was shocked when he saw him. He then greeted him. Joseph nodded as a reply and said, “Get a nurse here to take care of her for the night.”

The show runner let out an awkward look when he heard that. “Mr. Beckham, you know, a rainstorm that was not seen for many years has occurred today, many things have happened. There are already not many medical facilities on the island, and since it’s said that a ferry heading towards the resort island has capsized, there are many casualties and the hospital is all occupied.

There’s a lack of medical personnel and it’s really hard to find a nurse now.” Having heard that, a nervous and gloomy look was seen on Joseph’s face. “Capsize? Which ferry?” He suddenly recalled the fact that Stella had not returned until now.

The show runner thought he was worried of something happening to Freddie and he quickly explained, “Don’t worry, Mr. Beckham, it’s not the one boarded by Freddie. Freddie and Miss Downey’s daughter have already reached the destined island safely now, it’s just that they couldn’t come back in the meantime.
