Hayden initially thought that Joseph just didn’t want to trouble her, so that was why he was standing on ceremony. Only when she had swung the swing a few more times did she realize that Joseph sounded like he was gnashing his teeth when he said, “Hayden, I said, let go of your hand.”

She hurriedly let go and ask while startled, “Wh...What’s wrong?”

Joseph stepped hard on the ground to gain control over the swinging motion of the swing. His expensive leather shoes grinded out two visible marks on the sand on the ground as the swing stopped its movement.

He turned around and glared at Hayden, “Did I say that I want to sit on this swing?”

“Didn’t you say that it is not safe? I thought you want to test this swing for Noah.” Hayden still didn’t realize her mistake as she answered nonchalantly.

“Besides, in order to get along with a child, you should get used to playing with their favorite toys. Don’t tell me you never spend time having fun with Noah?”

“Are those the reasons you think that I should sit on this swing here with you?”

There was a hint of anger in Joseph’s eyes as he glared at Hayden unhappily.

Hayden was still very oblivious as she studied Joseph. All of a sudden, the smile on her face seemed to freeze.

He was dressed in a smart-looking suit, yet he was sitting on a swing with colors very contrasting to his appearance. She was too focused on taking care of his feelings to the point that she had forgotten about his usual cold and aloof demeanor.

“About that… Ahem…Ahem… I suddenly remember that I need to rush to work now. I’ll… I’ll take my leave now.”

Hayden pretended to check the time on her watch before taking a few steps back and fleeing.

As he watched her scurrying away from him, Joseph felt his anger slowly dissipate, and an unusual warm glow appeared on his face. With nobody around him now, his slender fingers were hooked on the ropes of the swing, and he was all smiles at the moment.
