The CEO's Lovely Twins

Chapter 170 It Is Truly Serious?

When Hayden saw Joseph’s cold look, she felt as if a knife had pierced through her heart. At that

moment, the pain was so excruciating that she could barely utter a word.

“What do you say?” She could not believe her ears.

Even if she was not Noah’s biological mother, she would certainly not leave him behind after seeing

him in the dangerous fire scene, let alone Noah was born to her. They were lined together in the

bloodline.

Joseph was with a cold face, “You leave here. I’ll give you an answer in a few days. I’ll reconsider our

relationship, the compensation that should be given to you will be sufficient.”

‘Slap’.

The clear slapping sound sounded in the corridor. Several nurses in the distance poked out their heads

and glanced sideways.

There was a faint fingerprint on the right side of Joseph’s face. He slightly turned his head and kept this

angle for a few seconds. Apparently stunned, it took him a while to regain his presence of mind. An

angry frown creased his forehead and he was showing an embarrassed face. He stared at the woman

in front of him disbelievingly and surprisingly could not utter a word.

For the first time in his life, he was hit.

“I don’t need you to think about it. It’s over between us, Joseph.”

Hayden clenched her fists and her nails were almost embedded in her palm as if such pain would keep

her awake and rational to maintain her remaining self-esteem. She glanced at the woman in the ward

and said to Joseph word by word.

“You can be blind but if your blindness harms Noah, I’ll definitely risk my life to fight with you.”

Countless doubts could be listed regarding the matter that Addison could appear in the hotel at a nice

timing to save Noah. But someone chose to close his eyes, turned a deaf ear and lost his rational

sense in which he could only see what was in front of him.

He was really blind.

After uttering these words, Hayden left without looking back.

Sadness and anger mingled together and this was an indescribable feeling for her. Afterward, she

rushed back to the hotel to have the second half of the meeting and when the meeting ended, it was

already late at night. All the staff of the public relations department kept yawning from time to time.

“It’s finally over. It should be under control by next Monday.”

“By the way, the back kitchen needs to be renovated. Is it temporarily closed or we should do

something else?”

“Ms. Downey, what should we do next regarding the matter of the back kitchen?”

Someone asked about this matter. After asking a few times, Hayden, who had been lowering her head

to pack her thing finally became impatient. She put the documents in her hand violently on the table

and said coldly.

“Go and ask Manager Duncan, this isn’t my hotel. I’m not the executive manager, how come you guys

keep asking me everything. I’ll resign next Monday and the handover procedures will be done

tomorrow.”

The crowd looked at each other. They were so shocked that they could not utter a word.

Jeff was bewildered. After hastily announcing the end of the meeting, he followed Hayden and asked

continuously, “Boss, what’s wrong with you? Why do you suddenly want to resign, you’re joking, right?”

“Do you think I look like I’m joking?”

After returning to her own office, Hayden sat on the office chair and her fingers moved rapidly on the

keyboard. Two large and clear words that acted as a title appeared on the computer screen as if with a

full of anger – resignation application.

It was truly serious?

Jeff’s eyes widened and he was so scared that he did not dare to ask again.

This was not the first time that Hayden considered resigning. When she first learned of the relationship

between Noah and herself, she had the intention to resign. At that time, if it was not that the

relationship between Joseph and her was determined; she would not let herself continuously work in

ST Hotel.

Now, since Joseph said such words, what reason did she have to stay here?

It was late at night.

In the exclusive VIP ward of the hospital…

Noah had already hit the sack. Addison was also arranged to rest in the next ward.

Joseph was standing on the balcony. He did not feel any coolness in spite of his face being blown by

the wind at night. On the contrary, he felt even hotter and more frustrated.

He came back from Beijing on the morning flight and originally intended to come back to give Hayden a

surprise. He knew that Harrison had asked her and the children to eat together at the mansion in the

evening. But, when he was just off the plane, he saw the news saying that ST Hotel had a fire. Magnus

also quickly received news from the hospital.

Overwhelmed with fright and anxiety, he rapidly rushed to the hospital but when he arrived, he did not

see Hayden. Instead, the one who was accompanying Noah was surprisingly Addison. In order to save

Noah, Addison’s entire left arm was burnt. This was a pain in which an adult could hardly bear. Joseph

dared not imagine if this wound was on Noah's body, what would be the consequences.

Hayden, however, came to the hospital only when it was evening as if nothing had happened.

He could not contain his anger, especially when he knew that Hayden only cared about saving her own

daughter although Noah was also in the kitchen.

Behind him, Magnus opened the door and came out. He handed a pack of cigarettes and a lighter that

he had just bought back to Joseph.

Joseph had quit smoking for a long time but not knowing what was the reason, he suddenly let him go

to buy a pack of cigarettes back today.

‘Swish…’. A blue flame appeared in the air on the top of the lighter. His slender fingers were clutching

the cigarette and he slowly exhaled the smoke after taking a puff. His indifferent features gradually

became blurred.

Magnus stood for a moment and said hesitantly.

“Mr. Beckham, the manager of the personnel department just called me, saying that Ms. Downey wants

to resign.”

Joseph’s fingers that were clutching the cigarette suddenly stiffened slightly. His brow furrowed tightly

and his face became even colder, “Do the formalities for her.”

These words sounded cold but if one listened carefully, they were actually mixed with a lot of irritation.

Magnus carefully sized up Joseph’s face.

“Mr. Beckham, I think there are a lot of suspicions about the fire. It’s perhaps not a lie that Ms. Downey

said she did not know that Little Noah was in the kitchen. Everyone saw Ms. Downey carrying her

daughter in her arms out of the fire scene. She went in but she did not see anyone else inside, then

how did Miss Sanchez know this?”

As Addison was injured, no one asked her about the fire. As for how she saved Noah, she did not

mention it at all. The people in the hotel also said that instantly after Hayden left, Addison rushed into

the kitchen and brought Noah out within a short time.

“Also, Little Noah was found inside the cold store.”

Magnus once again reminded Joseph of the strangeness of this matter.

Since Noah was in the cold store, if Hayden did not know he was inside, it was indeed impossible to

find him even if she went into the kitchen. From this point of view, there was nothing wrong with

Hayden’s words.

All various doubts fell on Addison at once.

Joseph frowned tightly and after a long time, he coldly spoke.

“Go and find out.” Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

“What about the matter of Ms. Downey’s resignation then?”

Joseph’s expression changed. Seemingly dissatisfied with Magnus’s words, he glared at him and said

impatiently.

“Tell the personnel department to find a way to delay it.”

Early the next morning…

After Hayden woke up in the hospital, she received a call from the personnel department.

“Ms. Downey, we can’t approve your resignation application yet.”

“What? I can’t even resign.” Hayden had just woken up so she was a bit impatient, “According to the

regulations of the company, isn’t it just needed to have a 15-day handover period?”

“It’s originally like that but this time, there is a fire accident. An internal investigation is carried out to

find out the cause. All resignations are not accepted, we have to wait for the result of the investigation.”

“…”

“By the way, there is one more thing to tell you. You’re suspended from duty.”
