Listening to Sonny’s words, Grandma May laughed and said, “That’s right! Why would Sonny think of you when he’s having fun?”Kevin said, “Sonny, can’t you just sweet-talk me? I’ll feel sad if you always tell the truth.”Sonny blinked his big eyes and said, “My mom and aunt taught me to be an honest child, so I can’t lie!”Sonny was obedient and remembered his mother and aunt’s teachings.Serenity smiled and said, “Yes, yes… Sonny is an honest boy. A good boy can’t lie.”Sonny snuggled into his aunt’s arms.Serenity picked him up and let him sit on her lap. She smiled and said, “Kevin, you are ranked very low in Sonny’s heart. I think Rowan may be above you. Sonny often asks about Uncle Row, but he never mentions Uncle Kevin.That was because Kevin seldom met Sonny, let alone play with him.Rowan played with Sonny before, so the little guy remembered Rowan and would ask Serenity from time to time when he could play with Rowan again.Kevin got into the car and said while driving
Hayden shook hands with Kevin and asked him to take a seat again.The secretary went to the desk and brought over the unfinished cup of coffee and gently put it in front of Hayden. He said respectfully, “Mr. Queen, I’ll go out to do some work first.”Hayden nodded.After the secretary left, Hayden looked at Kevin. The two of them looked at each other probingly.“Mr. York, did you buy a house already?”Hayden took the initiative to start the conversation. She asked in concern, but her attitude was still distant and indifferent.She did not know why Kevin suddenly came to her office to look for her. The two of them did not have a friendship. Strictly speaking, they were even business rivals.Hayden could not figure out Kevin’s reason for coming over, but she did not ask him bluntly. Instead, she talked about his house. Otherwise, it would be very awkward for them to just stare at each other.“Yup.”Kevin retracted his gaze and stopped looking at Hayden.He picked up the glass o
Kevin’s black eyes flickered. He asked with a smile, “If you went there a few times, it means Fortress Hotel is not bad.”Hayden admitted it and said, “Before you took over Fortress Hotel, it was inferior to my hotel in all aspects. After you took over your family’s catering business, Fortress Hotel only took three months to become as famous as my Jensburg Hotel. Now, we’re tied.“I am the CEO of Queen Enterprise. Although I’m not in charge of the catering business, as the CEO, I will also pay attention to how the various businesses under my group are doing. A hotel that wasn’t as good as Jensburg Hotel suddenly caught up to us, so I ought to go there and check it out.”Only by knowing oneself and the enemy could one win the battle.They knew everything about Fortress Hotel, but they could not defeat it.The general manager in charge of the catering business at Queen Enterprise was also under a lot of pressure. The Jensburg Hotel was an old brand in the city that was established d
“I got it for ten grand cheaper than the price that you bought it at.”Hayden was speechless and thought, ‘Well, I guess ten thousand is also money.’“Mr. Queen, there’s something else I would like to ask for your help.”Kevin stared at Hayden’s handsome face and thought, ‘If I were a woman, I would fall in love with Hayden too. She is really charming. I wonder how beautiful she will be when she has long hair and puts on women’s clothes and makeup…’“Mr. York, please tell me. If I can be of help, I will definitely lend you a hand,” Hayden said politely.However, she thought Kevin was a bit troublesome.Although this was Jensburg, which was not the York family’s territory, York Corporation also had a lot of businesses here. Kevin had also worked in Jensburg for several years and had plenty of connections. Hayden did not believe that Kevin could not find anyone else to help him.“Since I bought the house, it needs to be renovated. So, I need a design company to help with the inter
Hayden immediately took out her phone and wanted to call Kevin. However, after some thought, she gave up and put her phone on the table.She had not gone out for a long time to relax, and it would be nice if someone accompanied her to go horse riding.After sitting quietly for a while, Hayden picked up the phone again and called her twin brother. When Hugh answered the phone, Hayden said, “Hugh, help me find out the real purpose of Kevin York’s visit to Jensburg this time.”Hugh instinctively said, “What other purpose could he have to come to Jensburg? His family also has businesses in Jensburg. Isn’t it normal for him to come here?”“It seems normal, but I have a feeling that it’s not.”Hayden felt that Kevin was deliberately approaching her.“How is it not? Hayden, is he plotting against us?” Hugh was still convinced by his sister’s words. They were twins, and his sister was ten minutes older than him. However, Hayden seemed to be ten years older than him because she was much m
“However, you’re so good-looking and even more imposing when dressed up as a man. Those young ladies in Jensburg who have seen you in person will be mesmerized and look at you in admiration. Who knows, maybe Kevin is a homosexual that has a crush on you, thinking that you’re a handsome guy.”Hayden bore an irritated expression.“Can you help me find out Kevin’s intentions right away? Oh, and can you inquire about his personal affairs to see if he is a homo, Hugh?” “Okay, I’ll go and find out now. Don’t think too much about it. Maybe Kevin just wants to establish a good relationship with our family. You are the head of the Queen family, and all problems can be solved if he forms a good relationship with you.”After a moment of silence, Hayden said, “There are not too many conflicts between our companies. It’s normal for conflicts to occur between rivaling businesses. Kevin won’t try to please me or get close to me because of it.”“Anyway, Kevin won’t suspect your gender, so just r
“Where’s Duncan now?” Zachary asked with concern. “I’ll go see him.”“Mr. Duncan is alone in the backyard, and he doesn’t allow anyone to go there. He said he wants to be alone for a while and doesn’t want to be disturbed.”Zachary hesitated for a moment but still followed the housekeeper into the house. After greeting Duncan’s parents, he stood up and said to them, “Mr. and Mrs. Lewis, I'll go find Duncan."Derek nodded. “Go ahead. You’re his best friend. He might be willing to see you.”“Zack, please talk some sense into Duncan, and tell him to calm down. As soon as he was discharged from the hospital, he wanted to stand up and walk by himself. He couldn’t do rehabilitation yet, but he was anxiously eager to start.”Distressed, Corey felt worried and added, “I’m afraid that if he’s so impatient, it might backfire on him.”Zachary agreed. “I’ll talk to Duncan.“I'm going to look for Duncan in the backyard.”Zachary walked out of the main house toward the direction of the backy
Zachary had no choice but to push Duncan to a cool place and told him, “You can’t be here alone, Duncan. It’s getting hotter, you’ll get heatstroke in this scorching sun.”Duncan wiped the sweat off his face and replied, “It was still shady when I got here.”However, as time passed, the sun gradually moved toward a spot that exposed Duncan to direct sunlight.“I have water and napkins in a bag attached to my wheelchair,” said Duncan.Zachary quickly unhooked the bag behind the wheelchair and took out a bottle of water, along with some napkins, and handed them over to Duncan. Zachary nagged, “You have to pick a better time to practice your walking. Preferably at dusk or dawn, when the sun is not scorching. It’ll be cooler and more suitable for your practice.”The trees in the backyard made a pleasant shade, which made it a cool and refreshing place to hang around.“Also, you shouldn’t come out alone. No one will know if something happens.”After Duncan wiped off his sweat and dra
