Chapter 1844
“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

Duncan questioned, “...is it Grandma May?”If this were someone else, with Zachary’s possessiveness, to whoever dared abduct his wife, he would have already wreaked havoc long ago and would not have the mood to see him.Zachary said with a wry smile, “Who else could it be? Only my nana dares treat me like this.”Even his parents would not treat him in this way.Duncan laughed. “You must have stepped on your nana’s toes for her to treat you like this. Grandma May knows how and where to hit to hurt us the most.”Like Zachary, his weak spot was the woman they loved, and for him was Liberty.Grandma May told him that if he really let go of Liberty, she would immediately help Liberty find a good man and make him regret his decision.Duncan did not dare to say anything after hearing Grandma May. It was because he knew it was not that he did not love Liberty anymore, it was just that he was disabled now. He was worried he could not give Liberty happiness, so he treated her harshly.

Duncan said, “I'll go to her new restaurant when it opens.”He could not walk, but that would not stop him from sending her a floral basket to wish her business success.“Liberty will definitely treat you for dinner.”Duncan sighed, “But Liberty doesn’t love me, she still sees me as a friend. She took care of me in the hospital because she felt indebted to me. She tried to repay the debt by helping me. Other than that, my mother also paid her a daily salary of ten thousand dollars.”“Mrs. Lewis paid Liberty a daily salary of ten thousand dollars, but she didn’t take a penny. She only said that to give herself a reason to argue with you.”Duncan was not surprised. He said, “She does not want to owe me a favor. She took this opportunity to repay me. If she took the money, she would feel like she was always indebted to me. I already knew she would not take it. She insisted on presenting herself as someone who works for money.”“Zachary, how about you accompany me to visit Liberty's

Callum casually asked, “Where’s Serenity?”Camryn answered, “She’s probably away on a business trip. Serenity said she had to go on a business trip these two days.”If it were not for her eyes, Camryn would often have to go on business trips too. Since Dalton would always come over now, she did not have to travel.Camryn wanted to go to the office very badly. Considering that she was blind, it would be troublesome for her to travel to a faraway place, unless she took a private jet. Neither did she have one nor would she want to use her future in-laws’ private jet.Zachary did not give an explanation.He let Camryn assume that his wife was on a business trip.When his wife was not at home, he felt miserable as time seemed to creep by. Even after a long time, the sky had not turned dark and the sun was still high in the sky. The sun was not even at its highest point.They say “absence makes the heart grow fonder”.This saying is absolutely true.Zachary was experiencing it.Whe
