President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free
As the car drove in the July summer heat, the interior was filled with the cute and tender voice of a Lolita who explained the situation for about ten minutes, âSo thatâs the situation and itâs an issue which breaks my mommyâs heart. So please donât ask mommy about it.â
Benjamin rested his arm on the door and pinched his chin as he pondered, âYou said that your brother was lost just after you were born and he was lost here. Didnât you grow up in the United States?â
âYeah.â Stella blinked as she said.
âCanât my brother be lost here even though I grew up in the United States?â
âYes he could have.â Benjamin smiled awkwardly and continued, âThen what about your father? Didnât he get someone to look for your brother?â
âI donât know. I very seldom see my daddy.â Stella shrugged her shoulders and said innocently.
âYou seldom see your daddy?â
âYeah, daddy is very busy. I can count with my fingers the times that I saw him. I have not seen him yet this year. I almost forgot how he looks like.â
âWhy did your father divorce your mother? Doesnât he like you?â Benjamin was curious and suddenly asked Stella.
âWho said that my mommy and daddy had divorced?â Stella was upset, folded her arms, and said, âMy daddy loves me. He always brings me a lot of things when he comes to see me. Although I donât like most of the things, they were very expensive.â
âYour mommy didnât divorce?!â Benjamin remarked as if he heard a piece of explosive news and looked at her with his eyes wide open, âThen why are you trying to bring your mommy and Joseph together?â
âBecause I like Mr. Beckham and I want him to become my daddy.â Stella said it like it was, âMy mother only gets to see my daddy a few times a year and I notice that my mommy has more chemistry with Mr. Beckham.â
Benjamin couldnât help but be convinced by this reason.
On the other end, Joseph pushed open Noahâs bedroom door and saw that he was in a daze as he hugged the thermos of snacks as he sat on the bed. As soon as Noah saw Joseph, he intentionally showed that he was upset and didnât welcome Joseph.
Joseph noticed Noahâs cold attitude and could only sit down beside Noah as he said, âNoah, she was able to win over your heart with one container of snacks. Have you forgotten how many snacks Iâve bought for you over these years? Arenât you being unfair to your dad?â
Noah pouted angrily and started to write on the board, âThe snacks made by her are very nice. Those that you bought are not nice. She is very nice to me. Because of you, she doesnât even come to see me anymore.â
Joseph frowned when he saw what he wrote.
âI didnât allow her to come to see you because she didnât take good care of you and caused you to be hospitalized. So, Noah, she is unsuitable to become your mother. If you want a mommy, I can find another for you.â
Noah erupted as soon as he heard this and glared angrily at Joseph. His little face became red with anger as he wrote down another sentence, âItâs not her fault. I was in the hospital not because of food poisoning.â
Joseph took it as Noah was throwing a tantrum and said, âOkay, donât find excuses for her. You may eat the snacks but in the future, I wonât let you go out with her alone.â
Noah was so upset that he clenched his teeth and grabbed Josephâs hands and bit it.
Joseph grunted in pain but didnât dare to fling him off for fear of hurting him. He said angrily, âNoah! What are you doing?â
Noah released his bite and furiously pointed to the sentence that he wrote on the drawing board. Joseph didnât think further about this but felt that Noahâs temper needed to be controlled.
âTomorrow Iâll have Mark look for a few hobby classes. You may choose one to keep yourself occupied so that you wonât spend your free time thinking of useless things.â
Noah was so upset that his face turned red and then threw a pillow at Josephâs back and remarked angrily, âHmph!â Then he crawled under his blanket.
Stella stayed at home to monitor Haydenâs mood over the weekend.
She would become alert as soon as the phone rang. But the weekend was almost over and none of the phone calls was from Joseph.
Finally on Sunday night, Stella could no longer endure anymore. She hid in the bedroom as she made a call and said anxiously, âGrandpa, the situation between my mother and Mr. Beckham has become very bad.â
â...â
An old and steady voice came over the phone, âOkay, just leave this to me.â
On the next morning, Hayden felt that the atmosphere was strange when she arrived at the hotel.
âGood morning, Ms. Downey.â
âGood morning.â
As she walked to the office, she felt as though numerous eyes were looking at her. She didnât seem to attract so much attention when she came to work every day. She was wondering if she had worn the wrong pair of shoes or was there a smudge on her face.
âMs. Downey, youâre here,â Jeff said.
âGood morning.â Hayden frowned as she looked at him, âWhatâs the look on your face for?â
âIâm obviously happy for you!â Jeff squinted mischievously as he stood at the door to her office, âYou still donât know, come, donât be too surprised when you see this.â Jeff said as he opened the door to Haydenâs office.
The entire office was filled with roses of all kinds of colors. The fragrance immediately overwhelmed her nose. There were roses everywhere like her office was a florist.
Hayden asked with her eyes wide open, âWhatâs going on?â
âHavenât you seen it?â Jeff asked, âIt must be the surprise from your husband. Itâs going to be Valentineâs Day soon! The flowers are very timely.â
Hayden frowned and was even more doubtful.
The staff at the hotel all knew that she had a child so naturally they would expect her to have a husband. In order to prevent any misunderstanding, she had never tried to explain her situation. Thus, when she received so many roses, everyone thought that it was her husband who gave her the surprise.
But only she was clear that she didnât have a husband. Even if she had one in name, he could not have sent so many flowers to her from so far away.
Jeff pointed to a card on the table which said, âMs. Downey, with appreciation.â
âMs. Downey, the way your husband addresses you is very formal. How come he still addresses you as Miss after you are both married?â
When she saw the mischief in Jeffâs face, she quickly hid the card and deplored, âGo and do your work, itâs none of your business!â
âHmph, donât think that I want to be here.â Jeff sniggered and left.
Only Hayden remained in the office. She slowly opened the card and there was a simple message written in cursive, âI apologize for the days of silence.â

The fog that enveloped her over these days dissipated and she started to smile.
Suddenly she felt the warmth spreading throughout her.
