President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

Chapter 216: Where’s That Man

The rain was pattering outside the window. In front of the French windows at the duplex apartment, Hayden Downey brewed a cup of floral tea for Edison Godfery, "My family was chaotic, so I let someone to take care of Stella in the past two days. I'll pick her up and invite you to dinner when you're free."

"I'm free anytime."

The man on the smoke grey fabric sofa looked gentle with his glasses on. He had the characteristics of his age, being calm and confident, and even his behaviours gave others a sense of security, "It doesn't matter for the dinner. The important thing is that the death of your father, do you think it is so over?"

"The death can't be brought back, Edison. You knew that I don't like dwelling on things that were forgone conclusion." Hayden was exhausted, rubbing her temples.

She hadn't been able to get a good night's sleep for the past two days.

Hayden's father's death was suspicious, but she could not do much due to her status now. Otherwise, she would be inevitably accused of being discontented with the distribution of her father's inheritance unfairly and so picking a quarrel. It didn't matter to her at all, but she didn't want others to talk about Stella Downey behind her back.

"You deserve to have half of the Downey family's assets."

"This really doesn't matter at all."

Edison sighed, looking helpless, "You just don't want to put yourself in trouble. You won't move unless you're forced to a certain extent."

"There's nothing wrong with that. I just hope that my life was simpler."

"Is it simple now?"

Edison said in a deeper voice, "The Beckham is a large family, and it won't be simple with their family feuds."

Hearing this, Hayden was stunned for a moment, "You knew all about it?"

"It's hard not to know it."

Edison said faintly, "He always hogs the news headlines of Asia Finance and other titbits. Your relationship with him seems to be no longer a secret."
