President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

“Confess?”

Joseph was driving the car, “Medical history? You also have depression?”

His words made Hayden speechless. She simply asked him in a joking manner, “What if I have too? Maybe I knew Alayna from the patient group.”

“What if you have it too?” Joseph glanced at her, as if he was trying to confirm something, “Do you want to hear the truth?”

“Everything is nonsense, except for the truth.”

Joseph pondered for a moment and slowed down the car, “If you also have depression, I am not as troublesome as Kevin. I have no parents and my grandpa is almost 80 years old…”

“Touch wood!”

Hayden could not continue listening, “Hurry up and say ‘touch wood’! If your grandpa knows that you curse him like this, he will give you a kick.”

“Aging and dying are the common things in life.” Joseph said as if he was talking about the weather.

“Forget it, asking you is just a waste of time.” Hayden felt a little helpless. Joseph was a person who would not show any expression on his face even if the sky collapsed in front of him. He wouldn’t act like Kevin as if the world was gonna end. So, what was the point for her to ask him this?

“What were you trying to tell me just now?” Joseph sped up the car. There was still some distance to go before they could reached Hayden’s apartment. Looking at the speed dial, Hayden frowned, “It’s not very important, let’s talk about it when we get home.”

A sense of complexity flashed across Joseph’s eyes.

In fact, from the moment Hayden said that she wanted to confess something, he instantly related it to the man named Edison.

If Hayden could confess everything by herself, then the problem that was straddling between the two of them was not a problem anymore.

After 30 minutes of drive, the car stopped at the entrance of the apartment building. Joseph sighed lightly.

Hayden leaned against the seat of the car and fell asleep, showing no signs of waking up.

…

Joseph did what he had promised. He freed himself from his work for one whole week and took care of Hayden everyday in 24 hours.

However, from the third day onwards, Hayden started to regret that she had made this request.
