President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

Chapter 47: Touched? Impossible!

“Mommy, let’s go.” Hayden came to her senses and saw the car driving off from the complex and coughed awkwardly.

On the way home, Stella held Hayden’s hand, looked at her mischievously, and said, “Mommy, were you touched just now?”

“Who was touched?” Hayden immediately denied, “Touched? Impossible!”

“Then why did you stare at Joseph for so long after he left? Even I was feeling awkward.”

“Stella!” Hayden blushed and was speechless for a moment.

She suddenly thought of what Stella did as they exited the lift. Her expression changed and grabbed Stella’s collar and said, “I have not settled this with you. How can you simply invite others to our place? Did you even seek my permission?”

Stella struggled and continued to pester, “Mommy, release me, kindness begets kindness! This was what the teacher thought!”

“…” Whether it was taught by the teacher or otherwise, she had to teach her a lesson today.

The following day was Monday and Hayden met Joseph at the kindergarten after school. Joseph picked up his child and was about to leave.

“I’ll send you guys back, it’s along my way.” A black car was stopped at a nondescript old pagoda tree. Hayden agreed as it was difficult for them to hail a taxi and the subway was a distance away.

Once they arrived, she thanked him politely, “Thanks, Mr. Beckham. If you weren’t always so busy, I’d ask you to stay for dinner.”

The way she said it was so formal and polite as she was trying to hint to Joseph not to stay. But he intentionally ignored the hint and pretended that he didn’t understand her and said, “I’m not busy at all.”

“Just nice Noah said that he likes your cooking. He doesn’t eat well when he’s at home. Let’s go.” He got off the car after saying.

Hayden immediately regretted inviting them for dinner. Why did she say that? Couldn’t she just keep her mouth shut?

Putting her regrets aside, she led Joseph and Noah to her place and started to prepare dinner with whatever was in the refrigerator.
