Chapter 345 Dear Husband
Chapter 345 Dear Husband
Just after Zed finished speaking, Benjamin took the chair beside him and threw it to Zed.
“Daydream!”
“Bang!”
The huge thud awoke many customers.
“What’s wrong?”
“What’s that?”
“Please be quiet!”
“Huh, who are you?”
At this moment, a heavyset man smashed the glass door with a tube. His fierce behavior scared the receptionist. Those customers also ran back to their rooms.
“Let him go.”
Rebekah’s voice was hoarse. She tightly grabbed Zed’s clothes.
Zed covered the wound on his head with a towel. He shrugged off Rebekah and said virulently, “I wanted to have a peaceful conversation with you, but your son disagreed. I’ll invite your son to live with me for some days. He’ll come back when I see the money after one week. If I can’t see the money, Rebekah, your son will never be back.”
Rebekah was frightened, but her voice was full of hatred, “Zed, you old bastard!”
Zed seemed to get used to such words. He snorted, “You should have known this earlier.”
Then he ordered some strong guys to take Benjamin to leave.
They smashed as they left, almost making the whole inn ruined.
It was snowy this morning, so the road was also covered with snow.
Thus Hayden was late this day. It was almost noon when she got to the office. She was not busy, but she still needed to come here today, to announce the plan for the holidays.
“We’re having a holiday in about half a month.”
Her announcement surprised everyone.
“Really? Then there will still be days before the holiday!”
Hayden smiled gently, “We should avoid the travel rush. I want you guys to be energetic after you come back from the holiday. I’m gonna give you a holiday of twenty days. Come back on time and work with your full energy.”
“OK, we will work with energy when we’re back!”
The long holiday motivated everyone. All of them promised to work hard after the holiday.
“Alright, go back to your work, everyone. It’s not holiday yet.”
Dante said this. He was always the one who chilled those excited guys.
On the way back to the office, Hayden quipped, “You are more like a boss than I am. I think I should sell the company to you.”
“I have no interest in it.”
Dante said, “I don’t want to do anything except for designing. I don’t want it even if you just give it to me.”
“Give it to you? Stop dreaming.”
Hayden smiled, “I have no reason to give the company to you.”
Dante looked at Hayden, “So what’s your reason to give the Downey Group to ST Group?”
Hayden was stunned as she heard this. She frowned, “When did you know that?”
“Is it hard to know this? Everyone knows the news that ST Group is preparing to acquire Downey Group.”
“What’s your opinion?”
“I have no opinion.” Dante looked expressionless, “I just think you’d better take charge in Downey Group if you want to develop well the Green Lemon. You have got the biggest share, so it’s easy for you to get control of it.”
“Really?”
Hayden sat on the seat in the office and smiled.
“I don’t think it’s easy. It’s corruption around in the company. I’ve worked there for some days, and felt tired even though Joseph helped me a lot. There is no shortcut for everything. We should develop the Green Lemon step by step.”
Since Hayden had made up her mind, Dante didn’t say anything else. He handed the document to Hayden.
“I won’t say anything as long as you know what you’re doing. It’s the last agreement you need to sign. You can focus on preparing your wedding after this.”
“Nothing I need to prepare.” Hayden said with a mixed feeling, “I’m gonna go to Lanxi Town these days. Please don’t let Joseph know about my plan.
Dante never liked Joseph, so he definitely agreed.
“Don’t worry. I’ll never let him know.” © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

After Rebekah and Benjamin left the hospital, Hayden couldn’t get in touch with Benjamin. She had asked his classmates at his university, and know he had finished his final paper. There seemed to be nothing serious, but Hayden was still worried.
There must be some other histories that Rebekah didn’t tell her, and they're also must be reasons for Benjamin’s firmness.
Hayden had heard the words Benjamin said to Joseph that day at the gate of the hospital. Benjamin said Joseph would be regretful one day. It was not like a warning, but a kind of caution.
At night when Hayden got home and opened the door, she was surprised by the scene inside.
In the corridor beside the door of the bedroom, Joseph was on a ladder. There were several pink wind bells on the ceiling, beautiful and cozy.
“I think I didn’t ask you to do this.” Hayden came over and raised her head to look at those wind bells. “What are you doing there?”
Joseph had finished his work. He came down from the ladder and explained, “I saw them from the video. Such wind bells exist in all those bride’s homes. Oh, and balloons. I’m gonna make it later, since they don’t last.”
“It’s my great fortune to find such a considerate boyfriend.”
Hayden was amused. She smiled and held Joseph’s waist like a koala. From bedroom to the kitchen, she refused to let him go even when he was washing his hands.
“I just help you do this.” Joseph said, “I’m afraid you may get hurt when you climb high. I will leave the rest to you.”
“I’m busy.”
Hayden blinked, “Help me, please.”
“Busy? Too much work in the company?”
“Yeah.” Hayden moved her eyes away and didn’t dare to look at Joseph’s eyes, “I’m busy. It’s the end of the year, so I have to work overtime every day. Huh...maybe I have no time to meet you these days.”
“I’ll wait for you at home.”
“No.” Hayden refused, “My aunt said, you can’t stay with me before the wedding. Go back to your home.”
Joseph frowned, “I’ll go back the day before the wedding.”
“No, it’s the custom.” Hayden held Joseph’s hand and explained, “I also can’t let you go, but it’s the rule. We have to obey it.”
Joseph wasn’t moved.
Hayden had no other way. She twisted her waist and shook Joseph’s hand.
Then she said with a baby voice, “My dear husband...”
