President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free
âNoah, what did you hear just now?â Violaâs voice was very soft and was eerie like a ghost. It was as if she personified the fears of Noah. His face was pale and he broke out in cold sweat and was close to fainting.
Finally, he shook his head.
âGood boy.â Viola raised her hand and patted his head.
âVery good. You did not hear anything just now. If I find out that you mention anything to your father, I will be very angry. When Iâm angry, the consequences will be terrible.â
Noah trembled in fear when she touched Noahâs head. He was so gripped with fear that he almost cried. At that instance, it was as if it reminded him of a distant past. His eyes were wide open and he opened his mouth several times but didnât say a word.
Viola seemed to be pleased to see him so terrified. Her eyes looked at him with disdain and scoffed, âRelax, Noah, Iâll treat you well once I become your mommy. Donât be scared.â
...
That afternoon, once Joseph had finished with his work, he went to the hospital to settle the discharge procedures and brought him home. Viola continued to accompany him and eventually also got into the car as they left the hospital.
âThe doctor said that Noahâs gastric is weak and cannot eat at those roadside stalls.â Violaâs voice echoed in the car.
Noah huddled in Josephâs embrace and clenched his little fists but didnât dare to say anything.
Joseph nodded and said politely, âGot it. Thanks for your help today.â
âNo worries. Iâve known Noah since he was a baby and naturally Iâm worried whenever he isnât feeling well.â Viola answered.
Joseph heard Viola but began to be distracted as he looked out the window. Perhaps he was too harsh on Hayden that morning which resulted in her not returning to the hospital.
It would be Saturday in a couple of days. Joseph stayed at home with Noah as he recuperated. His vomiting and diarrhea had stopped when he was at the hospital but he still had a fever when he was home. Thus, Joseph didnât allow him to go out and wanted him to stay at home to rest.
Noah was very active and pestered Joseph although he was still unwell. He wanted to see Hayden and Stella. Noah continued to pester Joseph so much that Joseph couldnât sleep for several days.
Just as Joseph was coaxing Noah to eat his breakfast, the doorbell rang âding dong ...â
The maid went to the door and before long, the servant remarked, âStella?â
âHi.â Stella greeted politely and entered the house with the maid.
âYoung master, little Noah, Stella is here.â
âGood morning, Mr. Beckham.â Stella tilted her head and looked at Noah who was behind Joseph, âNoah, good morning.â
Joseph nodded and his expression warmed up.
The maid looked for a pair of slippers for Stella but Stella rejected. She held onto a large thermos and placed it onto the steps and sat down immediately as she exhaled, âItâs so hot outside. Iâm exhausted!â
Noah jumped off his chair, rushed to Stella, and started to signal to her with his hands.
Stella blinked and pondered for a while before she understood and explained, âMommy is at home but last night and this morning she made a lot of snacks and asked me to bring them over. So I brought them here.â
After she said, Stella opened the thermos and there were four segments. Each segment contained different delicious cakes and pastries.
âOkay, Iâve brought them here. Iâm going off now.â She dusted off her backside and was about to leave.
Noah quickly stopped her and turned to look at Joseph anxiously.
Joseph walked over and looked down towards Stella and asked, âYou came alone?â
Stella felt guilty and lowered her shoulders as she nodded, âYeah.â
âThen let me send you back. Itâs not safe for you to go back by yourself.â
âNo need. I can walk home.â Stella stared directly at Joseph and then suddenly became very serious as she said, âBut before leaving, I wish to explain something to Mr. Beckham.â
âGo ahead.â
âI ate a lot while Noah ate very little at the night market. I was fine even though I ate so much of the same things that Noah ate. You cannot hate my mommy just because of this. If you hate my mommy because of this, then you are not the Joseph that I like anymore.â
Joseph was stunned. Although what the kid said was simple, he felt empty as soon as he heard it. It was as if he had lost something dear to him.
Once Stella left, Noah glared angrily at Joseph. He carried the thermos off angrily and didnât even share a piece with Joseph.
Outside the villa, Stella pretended to be deep in her thoughts as she walked off. After she ensured that no one was around her, she quickly ran towards an awaiting car.
Once getting in the car, she high-fived a young man. The crisp clap echoed in the car and she said in her cute voice, âMission completed, Benjamin.â
The young man in the car raised his eyebrows, âWell done, Stella!â
âBut will this make mommy happy?â
âAs long as this Mr. Beckham who you like isnât a dummy, and has a magnanimous heart, then he should apologize to your mommy. Once he apologized to your mommy, your mommy wouldnât be sad anymore.â
âBut what if Mr. Beckham doesnât apologize?â
âDo you want a man who canât even lower himself to your mother to become your father?â
With such a question, Stella didnât hesitate and shook her head, âDonât want!â If that was the case, wouldnât her mother be bullied by him?
âThatâs right.â Benjamin patted Stellaâs shoulders and continued, âIf it wasnât for Hayden being so affected by that rascal, I wouldnât even bother to help push Joseph. There are so many men in this world.â
âMommy isnât concerned about the man. She is only worried about Noah.â
Benjamin was stunned when he heard her correct him and said, âDo you know why your mother is so concerned with that little kid? He wasnât even born by her. Even if she had started to like Joseph, there was no need for your mother to try to make up to that boy.â
âBecause Noah is the same age as my brother, not as you mentioned, trying to make up to him.â
Stella slipped and quickly covered her mouth and glared at Benjamin as she said, âI didnât say anything!â
Benjamin stared at Stella for a moment and said, âI heard it, you said that you have a brother?â
âNo!â
âOkay, then Iâll ask Hayden and Iâll tell her that it was you who told me.â

She was exceedingly anxious, âEach time mommy mentioned about my brother she would cry. You cannot ask her about this.â
âSo you really have a brother?â
When facing such a cunning fox, a small innocent rabbit like Stella could only surrender in defeat. The young eyes revealed a tragic sadness and lamented, âIt is complicated.â
