Chapter 244
President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free
After heading out from the garage, Joseph stepped on the accelerator, his usually peaceful and calm face was written with worry. This woman really meant it when she said to break up, and could leave just like that, but sheâs left so much trouble for him.
It was approaching 5 in the afternoon. After autumn arrived, the weather had started to cool down, nightfall also arrived earlier, hence the nursery was also dismissing earlier than before. When he arrived at half past 4, there were seemingly no parking spots anymore.
Joseph drove around the area looking for a spot, and saw a red car parked under a tree on the front, and a familiar silhouette got down from the car.
âHonk...â
Remembering the lady chefâs words, he slammed the car honk twice.
A pale purple silhouette turned around, seeing that it was Joseph, she frowned, âThis is a school, no honking allowed.â
There was still a car in between them, hence Hayden had to speak in a louder volume, appearing particularly formidable.
Smiling, Joseph said slowly, âDonât think thereâre any more parking spots here, Iâm going to park further, if Noah comes out, you help pick him up first.â
Regarding the matter of picking Noah up, Hayden obligated and agreed easily.
Ten minutes later, after Joseph parked his car, he found Hayden at the end of the queue at the school gate.
âI have something to tell you.â
âYes?â Hayden took a look at him, a wary expression on her face, âWhatâs that?â
If he was planning to talk about getting back together, this topic was not up for discussion now.
âNoah hasnât been eating rice recently.â Joseph cut straight to the point, âApart from what Stella sends him in the afternoon, he doesnât eat anything else. How do you think we should deal with this?â
Looking worried, Hayden asked, âHe really isnât eating anything at home?â
This reaction wasnât what Joseph expected. Since they broke up, Hayden wasnât responsible for Noah, she could actually not care about this, he hadnât expected her to show concern for Noah.
âYeah.â Joseph nodded his head, âWeâve changed our chefs three times, and he still refuses to eat.â
Initially he hadnât intended to tell Hayden this, in case Hayden thought that he was using some tactics on her, but he really had no other options now.
Noahâs health was not good, if it continues like this, the outcome would be terrible.
âFor breakfast and lunch, I can get Stella to bring to school. As for dinner, what about me preparing that and bringing it over, then you can bring it back to heat up.â
Seeing that Hayden was feeling conversational today, Joseph eyes deepened, âWe can do this on school days, but what about the weekends? He canât be starving for two days.â
Haydenâs frown deepened.
Looking at the side of her face, Joseph suggested, âHow about we do this? You come over to my place to cook on the weekends, just like in the past.â
âNo way.â
Hayden rejected this suggestion immediately.
She was doing that in the past and resulted in all these problems, if she still does that now, wouldnât she be sending herself to a tigerâs mouth? She couldnât do these things that would just drag things on and on.
âThen, do you prefer to see Noah starve himself for two days?â
Joseph was a little reluctant.
âHow about this.â Hayden thought of a compromise, âYou send Noah over to your grandfatherâs place on Saturday, I will head over there to cook for him. The place is nearer to my house, moreover there are more people over there to avoid suspicion.â
She knew that the old man had some issues with her lately. With this method, she could take care of Noah under the old manâs eye, which would be even more appropriate.
Joseph frowned, a look of annoyance crossed his face, âSo do you really want to hide from me?â
In his thirty over years of being on this planet, he had always been pursued by others. But when it came to Hayden, why did it seem that he always got caught in his weakness? He even had to entertain her hot and cold mood swings.
âNot hiding, but avoiding suspicion.â
Hayden reiterated, âLook at us now, we are just ex-es, your grandfather is also extremely against our dating. The housekeeper had already told me about this issue. If your grandfather finds out that we are still keeping in touch, what would happen if he seeks out revenge from me?â I am protecting myself.â
âHave you been watching too much television series?â Joseph rubbed his brows, âYou think my grandfather is so free to pick a fight with you?â
âWell, I canât be sure about that.â Hayden rolled her eyes, âSome people are worse than in television series.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âFor example, your childhood sweetheart. When she was asking me to leave you, she was only full of words. She didnât even offer to pay for my coffee. I think the people surrounding you are all lazy and love taking advantage of others.â
âYou...â
Joseph was rendered speechless once again by Hayden bringing up Addisonâs issue. He felt extremely frustrated.
They said those that cared more loses. Looking at Hayden, she looked like she couldnât care less about their relationship anymore, thatâs why she could come up with all this rhetoric.
âThen Iâll pick you up this Saturday...â
âNo need for that, Iâll head straight to your grandfatherâs place.â Watching the kids that were coming out from the school, Hayden waved her hand, âHere.â
Holding hands, Noah and Stella ran out from the school compound. Stellaâs face was flushed red, after waving goodbye to her teacher, she turned around and saw Joseph. Pouting, she let go of Noahâs hand, âMummy, letâs go.â
Joseph frowned, he had wanted to say hi to this little girl, but the words immediately got caught in his throat.
Hayden on the other hand, rubbed Noahâs head, âNoah, your dad said you have not been eating your meals properly. You canât do this.â
Noah tried his best to come up with a sentence, âItâs... itâs not yummy.â
Hearing this, Hayden sighed, âSo you like to eat what I cook?â
Noah nodded.
âIâve discussed with your dad, on Saturdays I will head over to your grandfatherâs house to cook for you.â

âBut my precondition is, if there are situations that I canât take care of you on normal days, you have to eat your meals properly at home, can you do that?â
âYes.â Noah nodded his head easily.
âOkay, pinky promise?â
Hayden extended her pinky finger, and a big and little pinky connected, âPinky promise that you will not go back on your words.â
âSo, Iâll see you on Saturday.â
Hayden left with Stella. Watching them leave, Noahâs sparkling eyes dimmed.
âNoah.â
Joseph ran up to them, helplessly adjusting his car seat at the back of the car.
Every day after school, this little boy would give him the cold shoulder. He was beaming so happily to Hayden just now, and the second she left, his face immediately darkened. This little boyâs face changed even faster than the weather.
âWhen are you patching up with mummy?â
Noah raised his little drawing board, his tender face accusatory.
