President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

Joseph’s statement instantly caused the atmosphere in the room to plunge to the freezing point.

Charlotte’s mother turned pale as fear crept up onto her, and she asked staggeringly, “What? You mean, I... I don’t understand what you are saying.”

Rita whom had stayed silent for a very long time finally spoke out in reluctance as she could not stand it anymore, “Charlotte’s mother, the reason why Stella has laid her hand on Charlotte is because he had pushed Noah earlier before. He laughed at Noah for not having a mother and ridiculed him as a wild child. Everything was recorded in the surveillance footage and I’ve been meaning to show you.”

“Why didn’t you mention it earlier?”

Charlotte’s mother went as white as a sheet and as if she was grasping at straws, she glared furiously at Rita and blamed her, “You intentionally hide the fact to try to make me look bad right? Why did you only talk about the fight between the two kids instead of bringing up Charlotte’s problem at first? When have you ever mentioned about Mr. Beckham’s little Noah?

Rita was rendered speechless by her nonsensical denunciation as she whined in an aggrieved manner, “You didn’t give me any chance to be able to tell you the whole truth.”

Charlotte’s mother looked at Joseph in a perturbed manner after the truth was brought to light as she apologised, “Mr. Beckham, I admit that it is my fault that this has happened, but my child doesn’t know any better since he is still young. I will educate him well so that he will become a better person in the future. His father will also bring him to visit little Noah soon to extend our official apology, is that alright to you?”

“There’s no need to.” Joseph darted a frosty look at her while he continued in a forbidding manner, “You have nothing to apologize to me for. However, don’t you think you should make an apology to Stella’s mother for all the inappropriate and harsh words that you have told her in her face instead?”

Charlotte’s mother’s face turned white as soon as she heard his request which had sounded more like a threat, and after fixating her gaze on Hayden for a while, she finally forced her apology past her teeth, “I’m sorry.”

Hayden did not have much to say to her anymore, so she just turned her head to ignore her, only lowering her head to inspect whether Noah was hurt anywhere.

Joseph was indeed a prominent figure who was very influential in Nanking. His words and decision would automatically dictate the outcome of any situation as he will always be the right one regardless of whether something was right or wrong in the first place.

It was apparent from the fact that the air of haughtiness of the stuck-up woman whom had mistreated her previously had tone down in an instant with just a few stern words from him.

After the incident had been settled, Hayden let go of Noah’s hand and said her farewell to him, “You should go home with your dad. I must pick Stella up now. Goodbye.”

Noah held on to her hand while his face was crawling with anxiousness as he was reluctant to let go of her. He seemed to have wanted to tag along with her.
