President’s Twins: Buy One, Get One Free

Chapter 278 Can I Study Design with You

The air in the room got pretty tense.

The owner of the manufacturer was a middle-aged man with small round glasses. He was tactful, but now he looked somber.

“Sir, the quality…the quality looks good enough.”

“Good enough?” Dante picked one clothes up at random, “The front flies are all in disorder and the stitches are an inch long. If this batch of clothes were sold, the goodwill to Green Lemon Clothing would dissipate with no doubt.”

“This...”

Watching the owner’s face full of embarrassment, Hayden tried to smooth things over. She pulled Dante, “You have a break, and let me have a talk with the owner.”

“This is?” The owner pushed his glasses up on his nose and looked at Hayden.

The designers often came to be the overseers and Hayden hadn’t come here before, so the owner had not met Hayden.

“This is the president of the Downey Group, Hayden Downey.” Anna, beside Hayden, timely introduced her.

“President Downey?” The owner was stunned, “I never thought that the president is so young a woman like you, and I am sorry for my bad courtesy just now.”

“Never mind.” Hayden gave a sign to Dante, and then she had a talk to the owner.

“Mr. Ellis, Dante is too worried about the goods, so he got his temper out of control. I hope you don’t mind. The batch of goods must be delivered within one month, and we cannot make any mistakes.”

Mr. Ellis was also embarrassed. “That’s all right. It’s our fault. I just came back from Guangzhou, and I am ready to oversee it personally. But It never occurs to me that something is wrong in the beginning.”

“You are a sensible person. I don’t need to repeat how important this batch of goods is. The more attention you pay to overseeing their work, the earlier the task of the goods can be accomplished”

Hayden extended a finger, “If you can accomplish one day earlier, I will increase the price by 5%; if two days earlier, by 10%...”

“If ten days earlier, by...” Mr. Ellissmiled at Hayden. It’s clear that he was calculating in mind.

When dealing with businessmen, it’s better to talk with money.

On the way here, she had decided to play a good cop, and Dante played the bad cop. Otherwise, the owner might think it’s easy to fool them.

The night fell. After the negotiations with the owner, Hayden drove Dante and Anna home respectively and then went home directly. She had a house empty in Summer Road, so she let Dante move in there.

When they arrived Dante’s house, Anna suddenly asked,

“Dante, can I study design with you?”

Hayden looked at the back mirror, and saw Dante frown.

“You want to study design? Why?”

“I like it.”

“If someone want to do something well, it’s not enough to be interested. Have you ever studied it?”

“I... No.”

In the mirror, Hayden saw Anna’s appearance of cringe and lowliness. It was the first time Hayden saw such a Anna, who used to be calm all the time.

Dante got off the car crisply and closed the door. He was a dull dog clearly, so he was still single in his thirties.

The car started, and Hayden said, teasing.

“It’s a good strategy to pursue Dante by studying design. After all, he got nothing in his mind but design.”

Anna was stunned and then came back to herself. She explained quickly, “President Downey, I don’t mean that. I really want to study design with Dante.”

“It’s harder than what I thought.” Hayden held the steering wheel, and watched the road through the windshield.

“You know that those who devote themselves in artistic creation are proud of their talents, and they might look down upon their peers who are less talented. Don’t mention whether he is willing to teach you. If he is supposed to teach you, you will be mocked and despised by him as long as you make a mistake. Can you bear it?”

“I will embrace gratitude if Dante is willing to teach me.” Anna sighed.

“So persistent?” Hayden was a little convinced that Anna really wanted to study design. “You really want to study design? Or I can talk with Dante about your sincerity.”All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

“No.” Anna refused hurriedly, “I will try to persuade him to teach me. If you recommend me, Dante will not refuse it, but he would not teach me willingly.”

Hayden said nothing more. After all, she herself was not sure whether queer-tempered Dante might give her face and promise to teach Anna.

Hayden went home with a bag of potatoes. The supermarket nearby was on sale, and the potatoes piled up at the door looked fresh, so she bought a bag of them.

When she got home, it was black in the house. She blindly approached the switch to turn the light on. The switch was close to the door, and she used to find it easily. But now she felt something soft and cold, and the door behind her suddenly slammed.

With a scream, Hayden shivered with scare and the potatoes fell to the ground.

The scream and the thud of potatoes falling on the ground reverberated, making it even more frightening in such a large room.

Hayden shivered to pick up her cell phone, and shouted, “Joseph, Joseph Beckham…”

Joseph should be at home at this time, but there was no one here obviously.

The moonlight reflected on the ground through the curtain. The faint sound of footsteps can be heard from the direction of the children’s room.

Hayden cried out in a nervous voice, “Joseph, is that you?”

As soon as the voice faded away, she saw a slender figure at the door of the room, holding a chainsaw in the hand, from which the scarlet liquid was dropping. In the moonlight, it was a horrific scene.

The plots in the horror films flashed in her mind, and anyhow the arrest warrant pasted on the notice wall occurred to her suddenly.

A serial killer escaped from prison. Recently, he was seen in Nanking City. Citizens please don’t go out alone and take measures for protection.

All of a sudden, Hayden murmured with eyes open wide.

“Stella, Noah...”

The figure gradually showed his whole body from the door seam.

Hayden picked up a potato in a hand, and grabbed the handle behind her with the other one. In a panic, she tried to keep calm.

Maybe, maybe Joseph and her two children were not at home. Maybe nothing happened. Maybe this guy just broke in.

The figure came out, and at that moment Hayden threw the potatoes at the direction of him. She then opened the door and ran away.

The guy seemed to be hit and groaned. But his groan was not heard for the sake of the thud, with which his weapon fell on the ground. The thud was so loud that Hayden was terrified and ran faster.
