President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free
She examined her own body in bath and then was relieved.
Although she had no memory of last night, her body wouldnât lie to her.
Nothing happened last night.
After her shower, she started collecting any possible evidence in the room. It was the watch that she first laid eyes on. It had to be Lyonâs if she was mistaken.
So it was Lyon who took her to the room last night, then her clothes...
The whole thing made little sense. She couldnât hesitate to call Lyon.
It rang for quite a long while before the call was answered. And the first thing Hayden heard was the announcement of the airport.
âWhere are you, Lyon?â she frowned.
âThe airport.â
Lyon sounded much more aloof than usual. He sounded like a totally different person. âIâm waiting for my flight. Iâm checking in in five minutes, Iâve been waiting for your call.â
Hayden paused a second.
âWhat do you mean? What happened last night?â
âNothing. Thatâs the only thing I can do now.â Lyon sounded conflicted. âI canât tell you much. But youâll find out soon. Iâm sorry, Hayden, really.â
âHello?â Hayden had more questions to ask but Lyon hung up. When she dialed him once again, she could only hear the machine.
In the airport, Lyon took a check on his phone. A message just came in, notifying him that a transfer had made into his account. He laughed, mocking himself. He took a long breath out when his assistant told him to line up. Turning his phone off, he toss his phone card into the trash bin.
He probably would never come back in this city again.
The plane left a streak in the sky above Nanking, a city where some leave in haste, the other stay to face their ordeal.
Hayden received a call from Anna after she left the hotel. Anna told her a contract they had long been negotiating over was finally concluded and asked her to sign the contact at the golf court downtown this afternoon.
So Hayden finally went back home and took another shower and changed.
When she was doing her makeup, looking into the mirror, she suddenly realized how tough she had become now. She wouldnât have stayed calm if it was a few years ago.
How she took it was simple. Itâs not a big deal if nothing happened.
2 p.m., Hayden found Anna outside the golf court looking for her.
âRight here.â
Hayden rolled the window down and beckoned at Anna.
Anna trotted and got in the car. The court was exclusive for members, Anna couldnât get in without Haydenâs company.
âSorry Iâm a little late.â
âItâs ok, I just got here a minute ago.â Anna buckled up. âThis program with HM Group Have been long negotiated. The team was going to throw in the towel but we got a call from HM Groupthis morning. They said theyâre satisfied with our new quotation and agreed to sign a contact.â
âThatâs it? They didnât say anything else?â Hayden was incredulous, âI heard that HM Group is a really tricky company to do business with, their assessing team in particular. Didnât they say anything about visiting our company?â
âNo.âAnna shook her head. âThatâs why Iâm surprised. If they do send a team to our company, itâs going to so long a process that I fear we wonât complete the contract by the end of the year.â
âWhat?âHayden took a sideway glance at Anna, smile in her eyes. âAfraid that I will make you work in the New Yearâs Eve?â
âThat I am afraid.â Anna smiled back. âIt wonât be so big a problem for me though. I just fear that the factory would be empty in the New Year holiday.
By then, who can we blame if we can supply the goods in time?â
âWhoâs in charge at HM Groupâs end this time?â Hayden asked.
Hayden didnât know the details of this case for sheâs scarcely involved.
âTheir vice-manager of the product department, Tomas.â Anna took a quick glance around and lowered her voice. âHe is tough to deal with, and kind of mean. What is he thinking to sign the contact here?â
QZ golf court was the top one court in Nanking. A vice manager who held no shares in HM Group shouldnât been able to enter. Itâs weird that he asked to sign the contract here.
But Hayden didnât dig deep into that, weird things happen all the time in this word anyway. Trailing Anna, she entered the clubhouse.
They spotted Tomas the minute they entered. Heâs tall and had a square face. Like Anna just told her, he looked like a mean person.
Anna introduced them to each other.
âMr. Johnson. Miss Hayden.â
âPleasure. Your reputation precedes you, Miss Hayden.â Tomas reached out his hand.
Hayden held his hand, said gravely. âIâm flattered, Mr. Johnson. I never contact you before but just let Anna do the talking. I felt bad for that. Could I invite you to our dinner tonight as an apology for my insolence?â
âYour gesture is appreciated.â Tomas smiled. âBut I have a friend with me here, I think it would be better not to bother you.â
âHe could come with us if he doesnât mind.â
Hayden would invite a dozen of his friends to dinner if the contract was signed, let alone just one friend.
Tomas nodded.
âThen I guess I should not refuse anymore.â
âAnd the contract?â
âDonât worry.â Tomas waved his hands. âItâs nice out there. How about taking a walk outside, this place is really perfect for golf.â
So long as a contract is not signed, the party A will remain a god. And you donât defy the godâs will.
Hayden had no choice but to go change in the locker room with Anna. After they changed, they went to the field with Tomas.
âAre you a fan of golf, Mr. Tomas.â Hayden asked.

âIs that so?â Anna smile, âMaybe he and Miss Hayden can have a match. Miss Hayden plays excellent golf.â
Anna saw Hayden played golf before. Though she didnât know much about golf, but she could tell from the crowdâs face that Hayden was a really nice player.
âThat would be perfect. My friendâs desperate for an opponent.â
Tomas waved at somebody in the distance and yelled. âMr. Beckham! Right here!â
Beckham. The name struck at Hayden.
