Chapter 1889
Hayden replied, “Does that mean you can only pursue the person chosen by your grandmother? Can’t you choose someone else?”Kevin nodded and said, “It can only be the person my nana chose.”Mr. and Mrs. Queen’s eagerness dampened completely.All that enthusiasm was for nothing!Hayden looked for her parents’ reaction while questioning Kevin. Seeing their enthusiasm drained, Hayden decided not to pursue the topic any further.Sophia was unwilling to accept this and asked Kevin, “Kevin, you and your brothers are all capable and outstanding individuals. Why should your grandmother make decisions about your marriage?”Donald chimed in, “Young people nowadays should pursue freedom in love and marriage. Unlike in the old society, parents cannot make decisions for their children’s marriages. They can only offer suggestions.“Your parents remained silent, but you let your grandmother decide for you. Marriage is not child’s play, it is a lifelong event and the wife you marry will be wit
Chapter 1890
Camryn was more envied than Serenity because she was blind.Callum was the eldest child to the second son of the York family and was also very outstanding in various aspects. Countless wealthy ladies had their eyes on him, hoping he would become their son-in-law. However, he was different from others and fell in love with Camryn, a blind woman.Hayden’s parents believed that Kevin would eventually become someone else’s son-in-law, and would not be related to their family. Their attitude towards him remained unchanged on the surface, but they actually lost a bit of intimate affection toward him.Kevin noticed this but he did not mind it.The point was to disappoint them, and then bring them hope and surprise.He could say that the Queens would never have thought that the bride chosen for him by his nana was Hayden.“Kevin, which family’s heiress did your grandmother choose for you?”Hayden’s mother asked curiously, “You said you came to Jensburg to escape the pressure of being fo

Kevin said with a smile, “I haven’t helped match Mr. Hayden with anyone yet, so you don’t need to thank me.” He looked at Hayden and said jokingly, “Mr. Hayden, you must work harder. When you get married one day, you must invite me to your wedding.” Hayden responded calmly, “If that day comes, I’ll surely invite you to the wedding, Mr. Kevin.” She had made up her mind not to marry anyone in her life. After having breakfast, Sophia asked the maid to help pack all kinds of food and drink for them. Although there was now little hope for Kevin to become her son-in-law, she still wanted her daughter to follow him to the ranch to ride horses and exercise instead of staying at home all day. Hayden said rather helplessly, “Mom, I don’t stay at home all day. I only have one day off a week.” Sometimes she would not even get to rest when she needed to attend parties and social events on weekends. It was not easy to be a member of the Queen family. Donald remained the nominal hea

“Bro, the more you’re wary of Kevin, the easier you’ll show your slip,” Hugh said very softly. He knew why Hayden was guarding against Kevin. It was because she was afraid that Kevin would find out about her identity as a woman. “I wonder who Kevin’s wife candidate is.” They enquired, but Kevin did not reveal who that was.Hugh chuckled and said disinterestedly, “Who cares who she is? It has nothing to do with us anyway. He’s from Wiltspoon, so Old Mrs. York must’ve chosen a rich heiress from Wiltspoon. Even if she’s not from a rich family, she must still be from Wiltspoon. “The first missus and the soon-to-be second missus of the Yorks are both from Wiltspoon.” Hugh looked at Hayden, who understood the look in his eyes. In any case, it would not be Hayden, so Hugh did not want her to be suspicious. Hayden would seldom be so wary of a man, much less suspicious of a man. She was behaving more like a man than a man would at the moment. All the old bosses who were acqua

Kevin rode on a high horse. When Hayden and Hugh came forward, he smiled and said to them, “Mr. Hayden, Mr. Hugh, let’s race.” Hugh smiled and said, “We came here just for horse racing.” “Mr. Kevin, we heard that you and your brothers have the brains and brawn. We’re here to learn a thing or two from your riding.” “I hope you’ll go easy on me, Mr. Hugh. I haven’t ridden a horse for a long time. I’m afraid I’ll lose to you brothers.” Hugh responded, “Mr. Kevin, you’re our honored guest, so I’ll give you a one-minute head start.” Kevin looked at Hayden. Hayden said coldly, “I also haven’t ridden a horse for a long time. If I give you a head start too, you’ll have an unfair advantage. Let’s have a fair competition.” “Okay.” With that, Hugh stayed where he was with his horse while Kevin and Hayden went ahead. Hugh was speechless. Why did he agree to it so quickly? Kevin and Hayden had gone far away, but it had not been a minute yet. Moreover, Kevin and Hayden said it

Hugh quickly slapped Kevin’s shoulder and whispered, “Mr. Kevin, you mustn’t let my brother hear this, or he’ll take this up with you. He doesn’t usually talk much and only nags me, his twin brother. “Look at my brother—he doesn’t look like a woman at all.” Kevin smiled and responded softly, “Your brother is just concerned about you.” Hayden did not look like a woman indeed. If she looked like one, Kevin would have taken action long ago. Even if he made a move now, he could not be impressed when he looked at Hayden. He would feel as if he was pursuing a man. When Hayden looked over, their eyes met. Kevin grinned, whereas Hayden’s gaze darkened. She looked away into the distance. When Hugh noticed that Kevin was always looking at his sister, he nudged and teased him, “Mr. Kevin, you haven’t fallen for my brother like those girls, have you?” Right after he said that, a snack was shoved into his mouth. Hayden scolded him, “There’s so much food here, and yet you can’t k
Chapter 1895
Hugh continued to ask, “Mr. Kevin, can you show me your wife candidate’s photo?” “That won’t do. What if you fancy her? Wouldn’t I be inviting a love rival for myself?” Hugh was speechless. “Once I manage to pursue her, and marry her, I’ll definitely invite you to our wedding. You’ll find out then who she is.” When Kevin married Hayden, Hugh would become his brother-in-law, so Hugh would definitely be present at the wedding. Since Kevin said that, as thick-faced as Hugh was, he could not press Kevin to show him the photo. Hugh could only say with a smile, “You must invite me to the wedding when you get married, Mr. Kevin. If possible, I’d like to be your groomsman so I can take a piece of your luck. I hope I’ll be the next person to get married so my parents will stop saying that I’m unwanted when they see me come home by myself every day.” Kevin grinned and neither promised nor refused him. He had to first find out if a brother-in-law could be a groomsman. If it was al
Chapter 1896
Kevin wanted to use the hot spring session to expose Hayden’s identity as a woman. It was worth noting that Kevin was scheming. If Hayden were to go in the water, she would be exposed. Men only wear a pair of pants in a hot spring. Hayden had fake abs on her body at the moment, so she would be exposed if she removed her clothes. She would not simply enter the hot spring. Who cared what Kevin would think? “Mr. Hayden, why aren’t you getting in?” Kevin and Hugh had gone into the water. Seeing as Hayden was sitting on the side and did not get changed, Kevin called out to her. Hayden sat there, and the expression on her good-looking face remained the same. She did not seem shy at all when she looked at Kevin and admired his strong body. It was clear that Kevin had a better build than Hugh. Hugh had been overly pampered. If he knew what Hayden was thinking, he would have thought, ‘...I’m still a boy!’ After hearing Kevin’s shout, Hayden responded apologetically, “I’ve be
