President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

Hayden suddenly came to her senses, pushed Joseph off, and quickly sat up.

Hayden took a deep breath and forced herself to brace up, “I’m here. I didn’t hear you earlier. I’m busy with something and will be there in five minutes. You go ahead first.”

“What’s wrong with you? Do you need any help?”

Hayden was shocked to hear this and quickly replied, “No, I… I’m changing. My clothes were soiled after saving the person just now.”

Hayden heaved a sigh of relief after she managed to convince Jeff to leave. She turned around and saw Joseph looking sheepishly at her as he said, “You are great at lying.”
