Chapter 1802
Hayden had a team of bodyguards, so she could ask one of her bodyguards to act as Kevin’s driver and take him back to the hotel.Thinking of this, Hayden responded in a low voice, “Sure, Dad, but don’t drink too much.”“We’ll just have a few drinks. Your mother is watching us, and she won’t let me get drunk.”If Mr. Queen got drunk, Mrs. Queen would have to take care of him. Mrs. Queen was also worried about his health, so she usually would not allow him to get drunk.Hayden stopped talking.Since her parents wanted Kevin to stay for dinner, Hayden, who just wanted to drop by for a short while to see her parents, also had no choice but to stay. However, it was still too early for dinner, so Hayden got bored and a little uncomfortable just sitting there.The main reason was that Kevin would look at her from time to time. Hayden did not know if she was overthinking it or if it was a fact, but she felt like Kevin was looking at her strangely.“Hay, this is Kevin’s first time visiti

After a while, Hayden could not help but laugh. “I didn’t expect your parents to rush your marriage, Mr. York. You’re an outstanding man, so I assume you would have many admirers.”“I do have admirers, but I don’t like any of them, so in the end, it’s none of my business.”Kevin admitted that he had many admirers. In fact, all of the York brothers had many admirers. Even the youngest among them, Rowan who was not yet an adult, often received love letters from girls at school.Hayden agreed with Kevin.She also had many admirers, but she did not like them because she did not like women. Thus, she would never accept those girls’ confessions.Hayden just rejected an actress’s confession before she came here.“You’re just too outstanding, Mr. York.”Hayden praised Kevin honestly. Kevin was indeed a remarkable man. There was nothing wrong with the York brothers. All of them were excellent and independent. Even if they did not rely on their family, they were all entrepreneurs and coul

“I heard from my grandma that my great-grandfather was a womanizer. People in that era had multiple mistresses. Although my great-grandmother was his first wife, she suffered a lot and made sacrifices to keep her marriage and protect her children’s interests.“My grandpa and his siblings also saw how much my great-grandmother suffered and felt sorry for her. Therefore, after my great-grandfather passed away and my great-grandmother took charge of the household, she established that family rule. My grandparents abided by that rule and were all loyal to their marriage.“My brothers and I will do the same. If we get married in the future, we will be absolutely loyal to our partners. Marriage is a once-in-a-lifetime event, so we must be cautious. We can’t be impulsive and should think twice about it.”Kevin admired the courtyard scenery in Queen Manor while they walked. Although it was not as nice as his family’s Wildridge Manor, it was still beautiful and vast. Kevin still preferred Wi

Hayden stood still as she turned her head to look at the handsome face that was right next to hers, and met Kevin’s smiling eyes. She thought for a moment that Kevin knew that she was a woman.On second thought, it seemed impossible.No one in Jensburg knew that she was a woman. She had disguised herself as a man for more than twenty years, and she was very experienced in doing so. No one could know her true identity unless she took off her pants.Kevin had been to Jensburg several times and had interacted with her many times, but they did not spend much time together, so it was impossible for him to know that she was a woman.“Mr. York, are you interested in men? Will your elders accept it if you bring a man home?”Kevin was leaning in so closely to Hayden yet she remained calm.He praised her for her composure and thought that she deserved to be the young owner of Queen Enterprise.“I’m not interested in men. If I bring a man home, my elders might not accept it for a while, bu
Chapter 1806
Donald had overdrunk. Kevin, who had good alcohol tolerance, indulged in drinking.Mrs. Queen scolded her husband, “Kevin is a generation younger than you. He could be our son, yet you called him ‘bro’. This form of address isn’t right. There’s an issue with seniority.” At first, it did not concern Kevin. At the thought that his nana wanted him to marry Hayden, Kevin felt there was indeed an issue with seniority if his future father-in-law called him “bro”.He laughed without saying a word. He left Mrs. Queen to scold her husband.Donald burst into laughter and said, “Kevin and I regret not having met earlier. Kevin, I treat you as my friend. We’re good friends despite the great difference in age. You can come over for a meal or drink whenever you’re available.”“Alright. No matter how busy I am, I’ll put my work aside and come over to drink with you as long as it’s your treat, Donnie.”Hayden’s mouth twitched.“Dad, Mr. Kevin is busy with work, unlike you who takes a hands-off
Chapter 1807
Hayden turned a blind eye to her parents’ act.She initially wanted her bodyguard to disguise himself as Kevin’s chauffeur to send Kevin back to the hotel.Donald said, “Hay, send Kevin home since he drank quite a lot. I’m worried that he’ll feel sick and have no one to look after him during the journey.”Hayden replied, “I got it.”She must be adopted. Her parents were not even this thoughtful and concerned about her and her brother.Under her parents’ request, Hayden had no choice but to let Kevin get into her exclusive car. One of the Queens’ bodyguards drove Kevin’s Maybach back to the Yorks’ hotel.After the car drove out of Queen Manor, Hayden tilted her head and looked at Kevin, who was resting with his eyes closed while leaning against the seat.“Are you drunk, Mr. Kevin?”“I’m not, but the after-effects of the wine are strong. I’m feeling a bit dizzy. Even so, I’m still able to think clearly.”After keeping quiet for a moment, Hayden said, “My parents are very fond of

“Look at what industry Kevin is in charge of. F&B isn’t York Corporation’s main business. Ever since Kevin started to manage the business, it has emerged as a leader in the industry.“How wonderful it would be if this outstanding kid becomes our son-in-law.”Donald sighed. “Hay is already twenty-eight, yet she refuses to revert to her female identity and isn’t interested in anyone. She’s planning to be a man forever and, worse still, a single man.”Sophia said, “As I said, she has always enjoyed disguising herself as a man since she was young. I let her be when she chose to be a brother to Hugh. When they were young, they looked cute and so much alike. It was hard to distinguish their gender.“Now that she’s all grown up, I can’t leave her to continue disguising herself as a man, but you said it was up to her. You even said she has an aura of an elder brother, so it’s okay for her to act so. Look. She has been a man for over twenty years now and is reluctant to switch back to her r
Chapter 1809
When they were close to the hotel, Hayden woke Kevin up and said to him, “Mr. York, we’re almost reaching your hotel.” Kevin sat up and glanced outside the window. It was a familiar sight.He said apologetically to Hayden, “I’m sorry for sleeping throughout the journey.”“No worries.”Hayden thought it was good enough that he did not pass out completely. Otherwise, she would have had to look after him the entire journey.“Mr. Hayden, where do you usually stay?”Hayden kept quiet for a moment before she answered, “I bought a villa in Lake Edge, and I usually stay there since it’s close to the office. It’s about a ten-minute drive.”If she had stayed with her parents in the manor, it would have taken her one hour of drive to return to the office. She would not be able to sleep longer.Hayden had a disciplined lifestyle. She would never be late to work. By half-past eight in the morning, she would have arrived at the office, which was considered early among the senior management.
