The CEO's Lovely Twins novel Chapter 164

Hayden became silent.

Knowing that she had said something wrongly, Alayna quickly explained, “These aren’t important. The money that you hold in your hand is the most important. I told you last time to go back and see your father more often so that your father will not become stupid and think that he has only one daughter left and give all his property to Chelsea who is a bitch.”

“Just give, I don’t care about all that.”

“Hayden, make plans for the future. Don’t lack a man and wealth in the end.”

Alayna’s words instantly reminded Hayden that she needed a lot of money to ensure that even if she broke up with Joseph or had a quarrel one day, she would have a backup way to protect herself and it would be easier to get Noah back. She was too comfortable these days, so comfortable that she thought this backup way was no longer needed.

“I’ve understood,” She thought about it for a moment and answered.

At 1.30 p.m., Hayden took leave for an hour to send Benjamin to the airport.

“Let me know when the plane lands.”

Hayden looked at Benjamin in front of her who was in a casual suit. She was still a little worried.

“I’m an adult.” Benjamin was slightly helpless, “Don’t always look at me with a gaze as if you’re looking at a child. It will make me feel like you’re my mother.”

“Your mother?” Hayden looked surprised, “You’ve remembered your mother?”

“I mean, it feels like a mother.”

Benjamin looked down and sniffed, hiding the momentary panic in his eyes.

After seeing Benjamin entered the security checkpoint, Hayden left the airport.

The sky was filled with a roaring sound. When Hayden raised her head, she saw a long trail made by an airplane in the sky. She subconsciously glanced at her watch. It was two o’clock.

She suddenly thought in mind that the plane that Joseph was on seemed to be the one at two o’clock.

The words about his relationship with Addison that he said before he left kept lingering in her mind. By nature, women would habitually break down a seemingly simple word into many meanings. When men said lesser words, they thought more and when men said more, women thought even more.

Whatever!

In the end, Hayden got annoyed and stepped on the accelerator to go to the airport highway.

She took a leave for the whole afternoon and planned to go back to the Downey family.

It was not that she was going back to get her property back like what Alayna said. It was because some time ago, Brook called her and it sounded like he was not feeling well. So, she had to go back to take a look.

After arriving at the door of the Downey family, she pressed the doorbell and the housemaid came to open the door after a while.

It was an unfamiliar middle-aged woman. She was sizing up Hayden with a wary face.

“You are?”

Hayden smiled faintly.

“I’m Hayden, are you the new housemaid?”

“Hayden?” The housemaid frowned and was about to close the door, “I’ve never heard of you, you should have come to the wrong place.”

“Hold on.”

Hayden pressed the door, “It’s normal that you haven’t seen me. My father is Brook, the owner of this house. He isn’t here?”

“Your father was hospitalized half a month ago. When he came in, his eyes were already somewhat blind. Although it can be slightly controlled through medication, he’s basically unable to see anything now.”

“You mean that my father can’t see anything now?”

Hayden’s heart throbbed and she clenched her fists, “How can this be?”

“There are many specific reasons. According to the test results, your father’s liver is having deterioration. Your mother has said that he usually drinks a lot, in addition to the reason that he practises irregular diets. There are a lot of small and large diseases on his body. This time, it’s the complication of multiple diseases that result in his blindness.”

The doctor only knew that she was Brook’s daughter so he naturally thought that Sofia was her mother. Hayden slightly frowned and did not deliberately correct it and asked instead.

“Then can my father’s blindness still be cured?”

“Probably cannot.” The doctor shook his head regrettably, “This is irreversible. It can barely be controlled with medicine to try to maintain it. If it isn’t controlled, perhaps he will really be unable to see anything afterward. Furthermore, there is another point. I’m not sure whether your mother has told you.”

“What?”

“Your father may also face deafness.”

Hayden’s nails were embedded in the skin of her palm. The pain reminded her that this was a true fact, not a dream. The doctor said that her father would not be able to hear or see?

Despite her resentment towards her father because of her mother’s matter, the care and love he had for her were not fake. He was still the same father who loved and cared for her and would give her anything she wanted. In her view, her father had always been omnipotent.

After she came out of the office of the doctor in charge, she sat beside Brook’s hospital bed for a long time.

“Nurse…”

He suddenly woke up, holding the bedside while looking at Hayden. His eyes were cloudy and he was apparently having trouble getting his eyes focused.
