President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

Chapter 220: The Real Cause of His Death

“Wait a minute.”

She responded listlessly and tiredly went to the bathroom to wash up.

There were a lot of affairs waiting for her to settle in Downey Group which she never knew that her daddy had to deal with so many things every day before she took over the company. It had only been a few days since she succeeded her daddy as the president of the group but she already felt exhausted.

Thinking of the voting by the board of directors which would be held that day, she felt even more distraught.

The position of the president had been reserved for her by her daddy, but with her mother’s involvement, she felt like she had stolen the position and she was on pins and needles right now.

The rain finally stopped. Early in the morning, Hayden met Mr. Lionel, who was her daddy’s lawyer for a coffee.

Who would anticipate that they would die of a major illness in the first place?

Mr. Lionel said with a gloomy face, “The insurance was bought a long time ago, around the year before you went overseas. At that time, Mr. Downey was still very healthy and had a health certificate from the hospital. In fact, at that time I wasn’t sure why he thought of buying this insurance. But now it seems that Mr. Downey is a man with foresight.”
