President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

“Who else knows about this?”

Viola clenched her fists and asked after calming herself down.

Her manager frowned and said concretely, “Those from the black market always do their job properly without leaving any trace, furthermore they have burned down the house and have blood on their hands, so I doubt that they have the audacity to tell on us. This means that Lachlan is the only one left who knows about this, and since it is their mistake, they promise that they will find him and finish off the job. Our concern now is that we will run out of time before someone else finds out.”

“That won’t be possible.” Viola’s face darkened as she analyzed further, “If that detective is safe and sound, he would have gone to the police station to make a report long time ago. The absence of any news to date means that he has most likely gotten into some trouble too. Remind them to check the nearby hospitals, refuge shelter or hospice just to be sure.”

It was impossible for someone whom had been rendered unconscious by drugs to survive and remain intact from the huge fire that had destroyed all the houses in the immediate vicinity.

She gradually convinced herself with the only plausible thought that there should not be any miscalculation on her end as she released her tight grip, revealing her reddened palms due to her fingernails digging into them.

Early the next morning, Hayden set off on her expedition to GX Town which was two hundred kilometers away from Nanking and the first location that had been selected for the purpose of survey for the Youth Hostel program.

The first homestay that she had to conduct her research on came out first on the Best Recommended ranking list on the internet, and it was named as Maple Sugar Inn.

“Your check-in procedure has been completed, and your room will be the first one on the right on the second floor.”

After the clerk had registered Hayden’s details for the check-in, she returned her identity card to her and added, “Please follow me as I shall bring you up to your room.”

“Thank you.”

The clerk was a young lady whom seemed like she had not even reached the age of twenty and was bursting with liveliness and briskness. She was dressed in a green T-shirt and shorts, and her demeanor was full of refreshing youthfulness that felt like a spring breeze.

“Are you looking after the homestay all by yourself? Is it very busy here?”

“There’s still our manager so it’s not just me. However, he has gone on a trip a while ago and it’s been two months since he has left.”

Hayden furrowed her brows in disappointment upon hearing the girl’s remark.

The furnishing of the homestay had exceeded her expectations which had directly strengthened her resolve to continue with her original plan to poach the homestay manager over to ST Hotel. She had deemed that it was more efficient for these experienced managers to participate in the design for the
