The CEO’s little ones

Chapter 37:.

What Violet never expected was that after Joseph also ordered Hayden to leave, Harrison interrupted to withdraw the order. “I think it’s a little more likely that Noah doesn’t need you.”

Harrison spoke coldly and glared at Joseph. He reprimanded Joseph in front of Hayden sharply. “I think what Miss Downey says is true. Look at you, do you look like a father? You drank so much and where were you when Noah rolled down the stairs? You were resting in your room, weren’t you? You were really careless.”

Joseph was already sorry for his actions and the more Harrison talked, the guiltier he felt. He no longer let Hayden leave, but merely frowned in annoyance, “Since he wants to stay, I’ll let him stay. If you want to stay, you can stay too.”

“What would I stay for?” Harrison snorted, “I’m already too old, I don’t have time to clean up your messes, I still want to live a few more years.”

He finished talking, called the butler and they left together. Before leaving, he secretly gave Stella an ‘ok’ gesture.

Stella reacted to that by blinking repeatedly. Now, it would be time for mom and her future dad to be together!

When Harrison left, Hayden grabbed a chair and sat down next to the bed. He used his hand to feel the temperature of Noah’s forehead.

Joseph frowned, “He doesn’t have a fever, why are you touching his forehead?”.

Hayden rolled his eyes and his expression couldn’t disguise his contempt. “When children are sick, they are very likely to get a fever, especially if it’s a post-surgical infection. If the fever is severe, it can lead to pneumonia and other complications, it’s going to be a big problem. What the hell do you know?”

Hearing this, Joseph’s face went rigid. He sat down on the couch and spoke sarcastically under his breath, “You talk about these things with such confidence, aren’t you a doctor?”

“My mom was originally going to be a doctor.” Stella suddenly walked to the spot next to Joseph, used both hands and legs to climb onto his lap, sitting directly on it.

Joseph did not detest this girl. On the contrary, he liked her very much, so he merely carried her to a higher position. Thinking it was nothing more than childish nonsense, he didn’t think too much about it and merely asked, “Then why didn’t you become a doctor?”

“Because after she had me in her womb, she didn’t have time to take care of the other children. That’s why she didn’t become a doctor.”noveldrama

Stella said with a tender, naïve attitude. But her explanation made Joseph think that Hayden was just bluffing and talking nonsense in front of his daughter. So he felt he somehow regained his dignity and snorted coldly.

“If I remember correctly, nowadays doctors need seven years to graduate from a medical college. Not everyone can be a doctor after saying they want to be one.”

The fact that Hayden had falsified his academic credentials was exposed during his interview three months ago. She was someone who hadn’t even graduated from a university, so it didn’t make sense that she could be a doctor. At best, she learned some nursing at a vocational school. Therefore, she was bragging in front of her daughter.

Hayden’s eyes darkened slightly. Surprisingly she didn’t retort and unexpectedly looked a little crestfallen.

Seeing this, Joseph’s heart suddenly clenched. He suddenly lost the humor to utter a series of mocking words that had been thought out in his mind. So he said nothing.

Hayden stayed by Noah’s side and covered him with the blanket from time to time. Without realizing it, her eyes grew darker and darker, and she fell asleep lying next to the bed.

In the morning, sunlight streamed in through the window. She woke up with a sore back and the scene before her caused her to be in a complicated mood.

With both hands holding a game console, Stella was sitting on Joseph’s lap as he played. Seeming to have encountered certain difficulties, she looked to Joseph for help.

“Sir, I can’t get past this stage, how do I get past this level?”.

Joseph then took the game console and patiently showed her how to play as he wrapped his arms around her. “Here, like this, you must be faster here…”.

After playing like this for quite a while, Joseph realized that Hayden was looking at him. At that moment, the soft smile on his face disappeared slightly, “Wake up?”.

Hayden regained his presence of mind. He massaged his waist and groaned, “I’m so tired, I have to go now, I have to work overtime to think about planning the anniversary project.”

“If you’re exhausted, I can let you go.” Stella had accompanied him to play all morning, so his bad mood from last night was completely gone.

“No need.” Hayden twisted his lips, “I never do anything, but someone keeps suspecting I have ulterior motives. If I keep not working, I’m afraid someone will say I’m trying to move up the social ladder. By the way, since I have spoken on this matter, Mr. Beckham, let me insist again, I only want to work. I’m only here because Stella has a good relationship with Noah. Don’t think he’s so attractive that every woman wants to chase him.”

Joseph’s good mood disappeared immediately. He frowned and stared at Hayden. His last shred of gratitude for her disappeared as well.

Seeing that the war was about to start, Stella hastened to say, “Mom, if you’re busy, go back. I’ll stay here to keep Noah company.”

Hayden frowned, “Don’t you want to go?”

“Why should I leave?” Stella treated Joseph to the bench, not even raising her head.

“Don’t you want to come deliver the snakehead soup to Noah at noon? It would be complicated for me to run back and forth, it’s Sunday anyway.”

Hayden was speechless, fearing that Joseph suspected she had ulterior motives again, since she gave him a head start for no reason.

But Joseph spoke weakly, “I’m not going to the company today, and I’ve already postponed all things. I’ll take care of Stella at the hospital, she’ll be fine, so you go do your business.”

“Huh?” Hayden was a little surprised. Did he mean he would help her take care of her daughter?

“Then remember to bring lunch for three people here.” Joseph’s next sentence made Hayden feel a relief in her mind, Joseph was indeed still the same. If he let Stella stay here, he would have Hayden as a free cook, what a great deal.

Because of the anniversary project planning, Alayna helped her by asking for consultation on how to do things from a friend who specialized in event planning, so she was in a bit of a hurry.

Therefore, she didn’t discuss further and simply left, leaving Stella there.

During the consultation, Hayden kept yawning all morning, so he drank several cups of coffee continuously.

At noon, he went to the market to buy a snake head and stewed it again to make soup. He also made two simple dishes and put them in a four-layer lunch box. Then he was taken to the hospital.

Noah had already regained consciousness. He had one arm in a cast and the other, which had been dislocated, had just been hooked up properly. Apparently, he couldn’t move his hands and just stared pathetically at the dishes in front of him.

“I’ll feed you.” Joseph used a spoon to scoop up the soup and sent it to the front of his face.

Noah, however, showed no respect whatsoever. He directly turned his head to the side, not even giving Joseph a glance. He only looked at Hayden, it seemed that Harrison’s words that Noah would also ignore Joseph even after regaining consciousness came true.

“I’ll give it to him.” Hayden held out his hand to Joseph, intending for him to pass him the bowl and spoon.

As expected, after Hayden was the one to help him eat, Noah immediately smiled and drank a large bowl of soup.

Joseph was a little jealous and told him sternly. “Noah, you have to be obedient, I am your father.”

Noah looked at him and suddenly stretched his little foot out of the holster and kicked Joseph’s leg hard. The features of his face twitched with rage.

“What are you doing?” Although it didn’t hurt, Joseph was still annoyed by the kick.
