The CEO’s little ones

Chapter 321:

Franklin had already prepared the stock transfer agreement, so he just passed the contracts to Hayden and said, “As long as you can sign this paper, I’ll pretend nothing happened, including these photos and what happened today.”

Then there was a long moment of silence in the room.

Franklin acted as if he had controlled everything and smiled at Hayden dismissively the whole time.

After a while, Hayden tried to force down his tremor and signed his name stroke by stroke.

Taking two contracts out of his hand, Franklin quickly signed his name and placed one of them on the desk.

After tapping the table, he said, “I’ll forward this money to you as soon as I have sufficient liquidity. You won’t mind waiting, will you?”

He’s never going to give me that money. Hayden thought.

Then she said indignantly, “Suit yourself.”

Now that Franklin had her pictures while naked, Hayden really had no choice but to follow her orders.

“Well then, I hope we can have a successful cooperation.” Wrinkling the corner of his lips, Franklin grimaced.

As night fell, at the Beckham Mansion, Magnus placed a stack of files on the desk and said nervously, “Mr. Beckham, I have done my research and discovered that Poppy is not a child psychologist. Her entire identity is false.”

Joseph’s eyes turned cold and he said, “Go on.”

“Her name is Lola Holmes and she used to be an assembly worker in a clothing factory in N City, but two months ago she quit the job suddenly. Her coworkers said she seemed to have taken a lover, but when I met her, she was attending to her husband in the hospital.”

“Where is her husband?”

“She was also using a false identity.” Frightened to continue, Magnus’ face paled, “Both Lola and the guy pretending to be sick at the hospital ran away and disappeared, now I can’t find them.”

Joseph was livid with anger, and asked, “Why would she know about Noah’s birth?”

“Could…could it be that…”. Magnus sweating profusely, then stammered, “It could be that Caesar leaked this information, maybe he was killed for it. Since he had no enemies, I thought it was an accident, but…”.

Suddenly, Joseph threw all the papers on the desk to the floor. One of the folders even hit Magnus’ calf, but Magnus didn’t dare show it and could only try to suppress the pain with gritted teeth.

“Stop what you’re doing right now and investigate what happened six years ago, the cause of Caesar’s death and who’s behind it all. How come you didn’t see this coming.”

Joseph was always nonchalant, rarely losing his temper, so today he was really furious.

Magnus was quick to nod and said, “I’ll definitely get to the bottom of this.”

“Also, that guy named Leon, have you checked him out yet?” Joseph asked with a clenched fist.

“Yeah, he flew back to Melbourne this morning.”

Joseph’s eyes were bottomless, like an unfathomable abyss.

Then he said coldly, “Three days. Bring him to me.”

Magnus could only nod and didn’t dare ask more, even though he would probably need three days just to fly to Melbourne and back.

“Out.” Joseph said casually.

Magnus immediately left the studio, leaving Joseph alone.

Reading an anonymous email with only a few sentences, Joseph’s face darkened.

“[I know what I did is unforgivable, but I swear nothing happened between us at the hotel in N City. You should trust her and protect her].”

Seeing the word ‘Protect her’, Joseph felt incredibly distressed.

Joseph had a hunch that what happened last night was not as simple as it might seem at first glance. Remembering what had happened these past few days, Joseph’s eyebrows furrowed.

A lot of strange things had happened since Caesar’s sudden death in L-Town and they all seemed to target Hayden and him.

Then his phone suddenly rang, “Joseph…. Can you get in touch with Hayden?”. Dante said hurriedly through the phone.

“I was calling Anna and I heard the sound of the car crashing, I can’t reach her anymore. The news said there’s been an accident on the overpass that Hayden and Anna were on their way to sign the contract.”

“What did they say?”

“I’m not sure, but I can’t reach Anna or Hayden now.”

Joseph immediately got up and walked out without even grabbing his jacket.

As Magnus was about to start the car outside the mansion, the back door suddenly opened and he immediately saw Joseph’s horrified face. “Start driving.”

The hospital emergency room was crowded.

Because of the snow, there was a multiple car pileup on the overpass that injured many people.

“Live here at N City News. Due to the sudden snowstorm, there is a car accident on the flyover. The original cause is the brake malfunction of a van. We don’t have the full list of the injured, but three people are confirmed dead…”.

Magnus practically ran every red light on the way to the hospital. When they arrived at the hospital, there was quite a bit of chaos at the door.

Suddenly, Magnus heard the sound of the car opening up before he could even stop the car, which scared the hell out of him. Joseph got out immediately.

“I’m sorry. The number you have dialed cannot be connected at the moment, please dial again later.”

Anna’s and Hayden’s phones were unavailable. Looking hurriedly around, Joseph can only see stretchers passing by one by one.

“Excuse me, excuse me…”.

“Dr. Miller, the patient needs a cardiac pacemaker immediately. He’s about to…”.

“Tell the family members to prepare mentally. Let’s check on another patient….”.

“I’m looking for Hayden Downey.” Joseph asked aloud to the nurse at the on-call desk.

Flipping through the list of names, the nurse said, “I can’t find his name, but people who can’t be identified due to the severity of injuries are not on this list. Sir, you should check the operating room.”

As it happened, there happened to be a gurney next to him. The blood patches were especially striking to see amidst the white bedding. Joseph clutched his forehead and felt like he was about to faint.

A wave of panic suddenly washed over him. Clenching his fist, he ran toward the operating room.

“Is Hayden’s family here? He’s suffering a massive hemorrhage.”noveldrama

Hayden’s name echoed in Joseph’s ears, and he suddenly pushed the people in front of him aside and ran like a madman toward the operating room.
