President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

Chapter 177: We’re Acquaintances

“Keep an eye on this guy and keep investigating to see who’s the mastermind behind him, or see who does he help to do things and who does he take orders from as well as what has he done.”

“Alright.”

Magnus nodded, “By the way, Mr. Beckham, Ms. Downey’s flight is on today. She should be arriving at the airport in the evening, are you going to pick up her?”

Joseph frowned.

“No need, I’ll go to the hospital tonight to see Addison.”

Magnus froze for a moment and sighed silently in his mind. He suddenly felt slightly sympathetic for Hayden.

She had become a scapegoat for nothing due to the fire and now, the investigation was almost done. It was certain that she had nothing to do with her and it was also certain that she did not know that there was someone else at the scene. But, Joseph’s heart seemed to be not on her anymore.

“Mr. Beckham, there is a lot of gossips about Ms. Downey in the hotel recently, should we control it?”

Most people felt that Hayden and Joseph had already broken up. There was a variety of gossips and of course, being an employee, they did not dare to say what was right or wrong about the boss. So, Hayden became their target.

When Magnus went to ST Hotel to do something that day, he personally heard Hayden’s subordinate employees discussing.

“Time will reveal all things. I really haven’t seen a stepmother sincerely treat a child nicely. At the most critical moment, her own child is still the most important. It’s good that Mr. Beckham has found out this

early, I think Hayden has worked hard but to no avail.”

“Yeah, it’s all done for Mr. Beckham to see.”

“…”

It was clear that she had not resigned yet and was only temporarily suspended from duty, which was a delaying tactic used by Joseph to keep Hayden from leaving but it had been misinterpreted to this extent. Magnus worried that if these words were heard by Hayden, it would lead to an irreparable contradiction again.

A clear and cold voice reached Magnus’s ears.

“Let them talk, don’t need to bother.”

His tone was indifferent. Hearing these words, Magnus sighed silently in his mind.

…

It was already night when the plane landed. Hayden pulled her suitcase and left the luggage carousel. Many people were picking up outside the airport. After looking around, she saw Alayna’s car.

“Where is Stella?”

As Hayden did not see her daughter, she casually asked. Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

“She’s at home. She should be sleeping right now.” Alayna helped to put her suitcase into the car boot and then winked at her.

“Rather than Stella, I think you should get in the car first and see who has come.”

Puzzled, Hayden opened the car door and saw a face with sunglasses smiling at her while revealing white teeth, “Sis.”

“Freddie?” Hayden was surprised and delighted. She hurriedly got in the car and closed the car door, “How come you come here, you’ve finished the variety show?”

“It’s over temporarily. I’ve been in a trouble lately.”

Freddie leaned on her shoulder and slightly rubbed, “So I want to come to you to lie low until everything is over.”

“Hey, let me say in advance.” Alayna’s voice sounded from the front, “You can lie low until everything is over but please find another place. If you attract the reporters to come, do you think that we can still go back home?”

“It isn’t because of the reporters this time.”

Freddie wrinkled his brow and seemingly found it difficult to say, “Anyway, it’s a little trouble and it isn’t reliable for me to find others so only Hayden can help me.”

“What is it?” Hayden looked at him worriedly.

“It’s the same shit that always occurs in the entertainment industry.” Freddie was a bit annoyed and he even showed a look of disgust, “Half a month ago, my agent took me to a dinner with the investor of the new drama. The investor kept touching me here and there, I felt really disgusting.”

“It’s a good thing!” Alayna unkindly laughed, “Isn’t the rich woman is going to make you her kept man? Why don’t you secretly accept and enjoy it, you can shorten the years to strive.”

“Will I have such a big reaction if the person is a rich woman?” Freddie’s face turned blue, “It’s a man.”

Instantaneously, the space in the car became silent.

After a few seconds, they burst into laughter.

Freddie looked at Alayna and Hayden who could not stop laughing and said angrily, “How can you guys still laugh? If a woman says she has a crush on you guys now, don’t you guys feel disgusting?”

“I’ve been telling Hayden that you have a tendency to become gay but she doesn’t believe. See, what I’ve said is correct.”

“Hey, I’m not, I’m straight, I…”

“If a person has homophobia, he must be secretly hiding that he is actually a fag.”

“I believe it this time.” Hayden agreed also.

Freddie was so angry that his face turned blue and red, “I’m looking for you guys to help me but you guys still make sarcastic comments. I want to get out of the car.”

“Fine, fine.” Hayden pulled him and finally stopped laughing, “We’re just kidding with you, don’t take it seriously. Tell us how do you want us to help you?”

“There is a party two days later and the pervert has invited me. One of you go together with me and say that you’re my girlfriend. It’ll be enough to let him know that my sexual orientation is normal.”

“It’s just that simple?”

“Yeah.”

Looking at Freddie’s simple-minded look, Hayden and Alayna glanced at each other as shown by the rear-view mirror.

He was indeed still too young. You thought that others would give up after you told him about your sexual orientation? In the entertainment industry, many straight men were turned into gay.

“I won’t go.” Hayden directly refused, “This matter isn’t that simple. I think you should delay it first. When you’re really going to get married to a woman, that person won’t pester you anymore.”

“You really don’t want to go?” Freddie raised his eyebrows, “I hear that you’ve had a war with Joseph’s ex-girlfriend recently? What if I tell you that this pervert is Vivian’s elder brother?”

Hayden was stunned.

The world was really small. Addison stole her man and her elder brother stole her younger brother. What the hell were all these things?

The party that Freddie strongly invited Hayden and Alayna to attend was the 100th day banquet of the son of Addison’s second elder brother. Many people went there, including socialites, celebrities and all kinds of people.

Hayden walked arm in arm with Freddie into the venue. She was in a low-key black Hepburn dress, revealing her fair and thin neck like a piece of flawless white jade.

Alayna came together with them. She looked around.

“Oh, this occasion is quite big. Freddie, I think you should agree with the man’s request. I hear that the eldest young master of the Sanchez family controlled the entire group. If you get married to him, you’ll be the boss’s wife of the group.”

“Boss’s wife?” Freddie’s face turned blue, “Alayna, stop it. I’ve repeated many times, I’m straight.”

“Okay, okay. You’re straight. You’re straighter than steel.”

Alayna was naturally teasing him. Hearing this, Hayden was helpless.

“He has come.”

Her arm suddenly tightened. She raised her head and looked at the place where Freddie was gazing and saw a figure in a black suit walking towards them. She was stunned and was revealing a slightly shocked look.

The world was really small.

“Mr. Sanchez, this is my girlfriend.” Freddie introduced her this way.

“Is it?”

Cleveland was with some intention of teasing in his eyes. He looked at Hayden and said, “Ms. Downey, we meet again.”

“How do you know her surname is Downey?” Freddie frowned, stared at Cleveland, and said.

“You guys know each other?”

“Slightly more intimate than just knowing.” Cleveland looked at Freddie.

“After all, Ms. Downey has told me that she already has a fiancé.”
