The CEO’s little ones

Chapter 40:.

Although he knew Stella was very clingy with him, Joseph never thought this girl intended to pair him and his mother. He froze for a few seconds before regaining his presence of mind. He stroked Stella’s head, but she didn’t answer anything.

“Noah really likes my mommy too.” Stella made a killer move and winked as she spoke, “You can ask Noah, I’m sure he sincerely hopes my mommy can become his mommy.”

Joseph’s gaze landed on the hospital bed. He asked hesitantly, “Noah, is it true?”

Noah nodded his head vigorously.

Joseph frowned and heard Stella’s voice again.

“Sir, Noah doesn’t like superstar at all. If you want to get a wife, you should consider his opinion! My mommy has always told me that she will ask my opinion if she wants to get a husband.”

What she meant was that, if Joseph agreed, Hayden would agree, too.

Puzzled, Joseph wanted to laugh and cry at the same time, asking. “Stella, don’t you have a father?”

“I have, but since I grew up, I haven’t seen my father more than twice in a year.” Stella sighed like a bitter-faced young adult, “It’s sad, isn’t it?”.

As she spoke, she secretly gauged Joseph’s expression as well.

Joseph somehow could understand her mind. No wonder Stella followed Hayden’s last name. It was probably because her father and Hayden didn’t have a close relationship so they parted ways a long time ago.

Worse she still dared to criticize him, she also didn’t have enough care for her daughter since she didn’t even know what her daughter really wanted.

As Joseph analyzed the relationship between husband and wife, the children looked at each other slyly. In the eyes of both of them shone lights that signified ‘goal accomplished’.

…

“Are you sure no one saw what happened there that night?”.

In the golf course cafeteria, Violet, who was dressed in a casual suit, was quietly sipping coffee. As she smiled an extraordinarily pleasant smile, she waved occasionally to the producer swinging the golf club on the other side of the window overlooking the roof.

But as soon as she turned her head to look at the agent, her face abruptly stiffened.

“Don’t worry, Violet.” The agent had a relaxed look on his face.

“I questioned them all with indirect questions. That day, those maids were very busy distributing the gifts among themselves, so there was no one in the place. When they arrived, the child had already been lying on the floor for a while.”

“It’s not hard at all to hide it from those fools. Even if someone has seen it, I’m not afraid, as a large amount of money can allow a person to do anything. I’m only afraid of the matter that Harrison has asked them to go and investigate the villa, are you sure they won’t find out anything? Harrison is very smart.”

“I’m sure they can’t find out anything. When I send people to question the maids, do you know what they said?”

“What?”

“They say that, for so many years, they’ve never seen their young master bring a woman home, but they’ve seen you in his bed. In this case, do you think they will continue to suspect you?”.

When this matter was brought up, Violet felt instantly triumphant: “I definitely have great skills. Do you really think I have learned nothing but to accompany Joseph these six years?”

The fact that Joseph was not a womanizer was known to almost everyone in N City, that apart from Violet, he had absolutely no women around him. Many people even suspected him of being gay.

Regarding this point, Violet’s agent suspected that too, but Violet didn’t take it seriously.

“I don’t care if he likes men or women. What I want is not for him to like them, but for the title of young owner of the Beckham Family.”

As they conversed, a figure in the distance stopped for a few seconds. After the person clearly saw that it was Violet, she excitedly approached, “Violet, what a coincidence, are you here too?”.

Hearing a familiar voice, Violet raised her head and made a surprised face. “Chelsea? Why are you here too?”.noveldrama

Chelsea was dressed in an elegant beige suit and carrying a limited edition Chanel handbag. She took off her sunglasses and showed a well-groomed, smiling face.

The agent just nodded in greeting.

“I just got here.” Chelsea put her bag aside, “I was supposed to come to play with a friend here but when I arrived, suddenly my friend said she has something to do so she can’t come. I was about to leave, but then I unexpectedly bump into you.”

“It’s been more than a year since we’ve seen each other, right?”.

“Yes, you’re busy since you’re still acting in a play every day, unlike me, who’s very free.”

“Can I be compared to you? You are the daughter of the Downey Family, so you don’t have to run to make a living as an entertainment industry person like me.”

“…”.

The two met during a business reception a few years ago. They maintained a close relationship, only lately they hadn’t been in touch.

After an exchange of pleasantries, Violet asked Chelsea how she was doing lately. Chelsea sighed.

“Everything is going well. But I’ve been having some problems lately.”

“Problems?”

“Did I ever tell you that I have a younger sister, but we only share a father? She’s recently returned, so my father is starting to pay attention to her again. Last time he had agreed with my mother that he would leave the company to me. But recently he hesitated again, saying he needs more time to think about it. Is it possible that he doesn’t know her intention? Actually, she is considering someone else.”

“Younger sister?” Violet was slightly surprised, “How could you possibly have a younger sister? I’ve never heard anyone else say it – don’t tell me she’s your father’s illegitimate daughter?”

Chelsea frowned and said vaguely.

“Apparently, there is such a thing. Her name is Hayden Downey, since she was young she doesn’t get along with us. Then he went to college to study medicine and always stayed in the school dorms. He has never participated in our circle events, so it’s normal that others don’t know of his existence.”

When Violet heard the words ‘Hayden Downey,’ her face changed. Hayden Downey? Chelsea Downey? Why hadn’t she thought of that?

“I loathe her so much.” Chelsea’s face suddenly darkened. “If it weren’t for her, my mother’s and my life should be so easy. But with her around, my dad worries about her being treated badly, so he always has her on his mind in every way. I get very irritated every time I think about this.”

“Anyway, she’s not your biological sister.” Said Violet coyly, “You and your mother don’t like her. Besides, she’s an illegitimate daughter, she can never replace you. Find a way to kick her out, isn’t this kind of thing very common?”.

Chelsea didn’t explain the illegitimate daughter thing. Hearing Violet criticize Hayden like this, it felt great. At that point, she also told Violet some of the past.

“It’s not like I never did anything about it. I did six years ago, I managed to set her up to disgrace the Downey Family so that my father would safely give up on letting her inherit the family business. But unexpectedly, she disappeared at the most important moment. She was really capable, as she disappeared for half a year in the country and then went abroad, even stayed there for five years.”

Hearing this, Violet’s heart skipped a beat. She sensed that something wasn’t right.

But Chelsea kept chattering, “It didn’t matter to me because she’s already gone, but why is she coming back after five years, what does she want to do, does she plan to fight for the family fortune with me and this is the reason she came back?”

Violet remembered the little girl who was always near Hayden, pondered for a moment and asked, “Is your sister married?”
