President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

“What do you want?”

Hayden thought that Joseph had released his grip on her, but before she could find her feet after she was freed from his constraint, she was dragged by him into the meeting room again, her head spinning like crazy due to the abrupt motion.

‘Bang!’ The thunderous door slamming sound reverberated around the room as she was pushed against the massive conference table in an instant.

Hayden looked up with a ghastly expression on her face and shrieked while being overwhelmed with shame and vexation, “What the hell are you doing right now?”

“Have some self-respect?” Joseph tugged at his necktie to loosen it and slammed his hands on both of her sides, imprisoning her in his enclosure on the conference table. His countenance fell as he looked at her in a condescending manner, “I’m curious now, do you always act nonchalantly and ask guys to have some self-respect after sleeping with them?”

He was perplexed by the fact that he was the only one whom was still brooding on the ‘accident’ that had happened that night after all these years.

Hayden turned her head to the side, pressing her cheek against the table to avert his intense gaze. His action had fueled her chagrin and aggravated her anger as she hissed, “I’m sorry if you have taken to heart the incident that night, or if it has rankled your mind since then. I’m afraid I have given you the wrong impression as I do not have any feelings for you, Mr. Beckham. I’m not playing hard to get here, so please let go of me now.”

“Alright.” Joseph’s hand slid down her waistline, snickering as he was fuming with rage, “Very good.”

A wave of shudder passed over her as his hand moved across her body, causing her to shiver uncontrollably. Hayden’s face turned pale as she was struck with horror, “What are you doing? Get off me.”

“Didn’t you say that you are not bothered by this kind of stuff at all? What does it matter to you then if it is going to happen one more time?”

Hayden was stupefied upon hearing his mind-blowing words, and she instinctively put up a last-ditch struggle to break free from his constraint right after his humiliating remark. However, she was kicking the pricks as her feeble strength was futile in front of Joseph’s overbearing force on her.

Her action had instantly ignited all the fury in Joseph as his self-esteem was trampled on by her in such a blatant manner. This was the first time that he had paid heed to a woman, but all he had gotten in return was ‘it was all an illusion’, and that itself had brought disgrace on his ego.

A swift wind suddenly swept across him and soon after, a loud ringing slap resounded in the meeting room. Hayden somehow had used her last strength to break free from his restraint as she glared at him after delivering the slap.

Joseph froze on the spot as his actions were halted abruptly while an extremely distinct handprint could be seen materializing on his cheek in just a few moments.

“You bastard!” Hayden pushed him away at once and fled the room in in a state of disorder and panic.
