The CEO's Lovely Twins

Chapter 189 Alayna, Let'S Get Married

In the mailbox, there was an email from the assistant, Magnus.

There was an electronically scanned copy of marriage certificate, with two signatures and notarized

time on it. Another thing was a copy of the current marriage status for US citizens, and followed by

some family photos. It also came with an attachment about Edison’s resume.

He graduated from St. York University, started a business by his own. He then became a leading

designer and in just three years, he started from a small clothing company and it eventually grew into a

listed company. Now, he owned a global top 500 listed company. Hence, his resume was quite good.

Even Joseph had to admit that he was an excellent guy.

And what made Joseph couldn’t accept was that Edison had nothing when Hayden got together with

him. On the Valentine’s Day four years ago, they registered their marriage in the US. He couldn’t find

any other reason to explain why she married this man who had nothing at that time. The only reason

would be because of love.

Plus, they did not divorce until today.

The room was terribly quiet. It was so quiet that it seemed to be possible to hear the water dripping

sound in the bathroom, where the faucet was not tightly closed.

After a long time, a loud sound was heard. “Bang!”

The large office computer was smashed on the floor and created a loud sound, followed by a variety of

dark coloured folders and heavy books. The red wine glass was smashed on the wall, leaving a bloody

red mark. The glass shattered into pieces at the corner of the wall and reflected cold beams of light.

Almost in an instance, the entire study room turned into a ruin.

“Sir…”

The housekeeper, who came because of the sounds, stood at the door and saw the scene. Her face

turned white out of frightening, “This is…”

“Get out…”

“Sir, your hand…”

“Get out!”

His furious voice rushed into the eardrums of the housekeeper. All of a sudden, thunder clapped loudly

outside the window, and rain started to fall heavily on the window pane. The flash of the lightning shone

on Joseph’s face like an abyssal ghost, he looked extremely gloomy. The housekeeper was so

frightened that her face turned pale. She stumbled and closed the door hurriedly, and then she left in

haste.

In the centre of the ruin, Joseph held a gloomy face. Pieces of crushed glass were still in his flesh. His This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

slender fingers had blood dripping from it and onto the ground, drop by drop. Soon, the blood clotted

and turned into black blood stain.

“Hayden’s father is awake, right?”

Kevin held an umbrella and sent Alayna to downstairs, “How about that camping trip we mentioned

earlier? Let’s arrange a time for it. We’ve been dragging on for a long time.”

“I’ll ask Hayden tomorrow. There should be no problem. After all, the doctor said that her father’s

condition is quite stable now. If he recovers properly, it won’t be a problem for him to live for another

few years.”

“Live for another few years?” Kevin looked at her in astonishment, “Are these words used to comfort

people? Hayden had been listening to these words from you all this time?”

“What’s wrong with it?” Alayna gave him a disdainful glance, “Haven’t you heard before that the good

or bad will get what they deserve in the end? Her father did not take care of his family when he was

young. He was out there getting into trouble and caused Hayden lost her mother since birth. And if her

grandpa had not died, he wouldn’t have taken her back to live with him.”

"Her father was good to her, wasn't he? You can't make a statement based on the past, it's all about the

previous generation."

"Stop it, I dislike hearing this.” Alayna said with an indignation face, “The problems from the previous

generation can only be considered the end if it didn’t affect the next generation. Based on the fact that

Brook clearly knew that the woman was the one who killed Hayden’s mother but he still married her, he

is not worthy for the sympathy.”

Kevin was not surprised.

He had heard about the things about the Downey family. Initially, he knew nothing about it. But because

Hayden was a friend of Alayna, he did some investigations, so that he had some preparations in his

heart. Moreover, this case about the Downey family had appeared on the news at that time. In the era

of paper media, the things that sent out were physical newspapers and magazines. There was no way

to retract the news.

The case was about a pregnant mistress came to the door of the Downey family. She caused the wife

to give birth prematurely, and before the wife was sent to the hospital, she died. At last, the child was

finally delivered by Caesarean section and stayed alive. This incident had become a hot topic in the

public.

This matter had happened until this extent, it was impossible to say that Brook didn’t know or suspect

anything at all. However, he still married the mistress and left his daughter, who fortunately stayed

alive, to his deceased wife’s mother house. He only took her back after many years.

“Everything he did was because of guilt, he wanted to compensate and released himself from guilt.

Although he compensated, the damage he caused to Hayden’s childhood was irreversible. He made

Hayden’s childhood and teenage life like a pawn in a game.”

Alayna had a cold face, she snickered, “They’re all bad guys.”

Hayden’s eldest aunt, who was the wife of her mother’s elder brother, was her mother, Florence’s best

friend. Florence was a soft and weak tempered woman, but her aunt’s temper was tough. After

Florence died, everyone thought that she would treat Hayden as her own daughter. However, who

would have thought that she had coldly left Hayden to her grandfather for many years. After her

grandfather died, she drove Hayden out of the house.

Hayden then understood the meaning behind her aunt’s action after many years. Her aunt was not

willing to let Brook lived his own free life and forgot about his tragically died wife, who had been going

through ups and downs with him back then. So, she deliberately sent Hayden to him to remind him

about his wrongdoings.

Her aunt clung on it for many years. Now, she had learnt to let go. She no longer forced Hayden to live

with Brook. Then, she started to give Hayden the long awaited sense of belonging.

Alayna was not involved, she even didn’t witness all the pain and struggles that Hayden had been gone

through, but she knew and understood more than anyone else in the world. She pitied Hayden as if she

went through all that.

Her stubbornness and firm expression fell into the eyes of Kevin, which made his heart fluttered.

What a good girl she was. He believed that he wouldn’t have the chance to meet another girl like her

for the rest of his life. His heart was attached to her and he couldn’t wait to hand his heart over to her.

“Alayna, let’s get married.”

The night was pouring with rain. Under the umbrella, there came Kevin’s calm and firm voice.

The ring was in his suit pocket for half a month. He was waiting for the right moment, the moment that

made his heart fluttered so that he could show all his passion to her without any reservation.

Alayna froze for a moment. She subconsciously took a step back, and rain started to hit her back.

Kevin immediately reached his umbrella over to block the rain behind her, and his other hand reached

into his suit pocket.

“Don’t take it out.”

Alayna spoke suddenly, her voice stopped his movement.

“Kevin, if you take it out now, we will not see each other ever again.”

Kevin looked stunned, as if he did not believe what he had heard.

“Alayna, you…”

“It’s too late now, we talked too much today, and you also think too much. I’m going home, you should

leave earlier too.”

Alayna spoke quickly, like she was in a hurry to end something. She was about to leave after finished

talking, but her wrist was grabbed by Kevin.

“Let go of me.”

“ALAYNA COLE!” Kevin used a stern attitude towards her and refused to let go of her wrist. “What are

you hiding from? You clearly know that I love you. I quit smoking, drinking, girls and fighting for you. No

matter what you want, as long as you tell me, whether I can do it or not, I will go and do it for you

without another word. But I only have one request, please marry me.”
