Chapter 1910
Hayden did not want the shameless man to turn around halfway. The secretary respectfully invited Kevin out. Kevin smiled at Hayden as he brought the bouquet out. When he followed the secretary out, Hayden heard him asking the secretary, “Are the flowers not beautiful enough? Why doesn’t Mr. Hayden accept my flowers?” Hayden slammed the door shut. She returned to her seat and then her other phone rang. It was from her brother. “Hayden! I missed the great show today! I should have come back for the meeting! D*mn it!” Hugh received the news of Kevin giving flowers to her sister in front of the executives. Someone close to him informed him right away. Hayden’s expression turned gloomy. She said coldly, “Hugh, one more word and I will cut your tongue off and feed it to the dog.” “Alright, alright. Don’t be mad, brother. With that face of yours, men and women will fall for you. Even my friends don’t dare to spend too much time with you because they are afraid they would f

Hugh received information quickly, but so did Josh. Josh knocked on the door to Zachary’s office with a big smile. “Zachary, let me tell you something. I almost died from laughing about it.”Zachary raised his head to glance at Josh, then continued to peruse his documents. He said, “What’s so funny that you’re dying from laughter? You should take care of your health. Your wife is pregnant with your child.”Josh said, “What nonsense. Are you cursing me? I’ll live a long life and grow old with Jasmine until I'm a hundred years old. Wait, I have to live longer than that. I’m several years older than her.”They would share a bed while alive and rest in the same grave when they died. They would be connected in life and death. No. It was not a good time to talk about those ominous things. “You’re so greedy. I think living till ninety is enough. There aren’t many people who can live as long as a century.”Zachary might have said that, but he hoped to live with Serenity until they

“Even the Queens’ relatives think Hayden’s a man.”Some distant relatives of the Queen family even wanted to play matchmaker and introduce women to Hayden. “Everyone’s used to Hayden being a man. I forgot about it for a moment there too.”Josh did not admit that his intelligence had dropped. “I admire Kevin for pursuing his wife while risking being called a gay.”Zachary said, “Kevin knows what he’s doing. Gay or not, he’s approaching the matter directly. There’s no need to waste so much time and effort to reveal that Hayden is a woman.“Hayden herself is aware of whether she’s a man or a woman. Even though she has been dressing up as a man since she was young and for over twenty years at that, she didn’t undergo any surgery to change her gender. Disguising as a man for the rest of her life won’t change the fact that she’s still a woman.“She’ll return to being a woman if she can’t handle Kevin’s advances. Even if she can, Kevin will have a way to make her admit that she’s a w

After a moment, Josh said, “I wish I could go to Jensburg to get first-hand gossip.”Zachary told him, “You can still get first-hand information even in Wiltspoon. Kevin had only given Hayden the flowers an hour ago, yet you’ve learned about it. Do you even need to go to Jensburg?”Josh smiled and said, “Although I can get intel in Wiltspoon, it’s still quicker if I were in Jensburg.”“There are twenty minutes left until we can get off work,” Zachary suddenly said. “So? I’m going to have a meal with my wife after clocking off. Oh, right. I have to tell her about this big news. She loves gossip the most. I’m not afraid of you laughing at me, Zachary, but I feel like Jasmine only married me to obtain first-hand gossip.”Zachary said, “It seems like you have some self-awareness.”Josh said, “It can’t be. It must’ve been because I was excellent, treated her well, and our personalities complemented each other. We got together because she had fallen in love with me and not to become g

It was almost time to clock off. Many people were going in and out of the company. If they saw Kevin’s bed of flower arrangement, Hayden would not be able to explain herself. She did not expect Kevin to start pursuing her like a possessed man overnight. Did he want to pursue her?Hayden was a man now. Was Kevin announcing to the world that he was gay by publicly pursuing her? “Mr. Queen, Mr. Kevin had called many people over. I think it’ll be difficult to destroy his flowers,” the secretary said in a dilemma. Kevin was no ordinary man. He was a young master of the York family and the person in charge of Fortress Hotel.Although Jensburg was not the Yorks’ territory, they still held quite a bit of influence here. “Many passers-by are taking pictures.”Hayden’s expression darkened. She said coldly, “I don’t care how many people he brought with him. Just destroy the flowers.”The secretary heeded her instructions and informed the security to ruin the flowers. Hayden could

Soon, the head of security of Queen Enterprise brought a team with him to destroy the flowers. Kevin’s men naturally stopped them. The scene started to get rowdy. Kevin was not flustered. He even had the mood to take a picture of the fruit of his labor with his phone. He then spotted Hugh in the crowd and walked toward him. Hugh bent down and took a flower from the bed of roses. When Kevin approached him, he passed the flower to him with a smile on his handsome face. He told Kevin, “If you prefer men, Mr. Kevin, why don’t you pursue me instead?“I think I’m a better match for you. My brother isn’t the right person for you, Mr. Kevin. He’s a straight man. He won’t like you.”Kevin caught the flower between his two fingers and leaned forward to smell the flower. He said, “It smells fresh.”Next, he pinched Hugh’s chin and raised it flirtatiously. He eyed Hugh and said with a smile, “You’re handsome but still slightly lacking compared to your brother.”Hugh chuckled and pull

Hayden was speechless. If she knew Kevin was so difficult to deal with and would create such a mess, she would have accepted his bouquet and thrown it away after he left. Such a mess may not have occurred. “Are you done with work?”Kevin raised his head to look at the sun in the sky. He could not open his eyes because of the sunlight, so he quickly lowered his head. He asked Hayden, “Will you let me treat you to a meal, Mr. Queen?”“I’m sorry. I have a lunch appointment in the afternoon. I’m not free.”Hayden rejected him right away. Kevin said, “It’s okay. You may not be free today, but you’ll have time in the future. I’ll come to invite you for a meal and arrange flowers at your company’s entrance every day until you agree to have a meal with me.”Hayden was exasperated. She did not hit Kevin only because she was well-mannered. She could not be bothered to continue talking to him too. He had already decided to use her. Hayden waved her hand and said to company secur

Hayden did not say a word. She walked to her car. Hugh gestured to the secretary not to follow them anymore and followed his sister to the car. Soon, Hayden got into the car. Hugh squeezed into his sister’s luxury car as well. The driver watched Hugh and silently started the car engine. “Bro, I asked Kevin just now, and he admitted that he’s using you to escape his parents’ nagging about marriage.”Hayden watched her brother coldly. “Do you believe him?”Hugh choked briefly and said, “Based on my investigation and the information we obtained, I do. If I don’t, could he possibly be gay? Even if he is, he won’t publicly pursue you after only meeting you several times.”It was Hayden’s turn to be speechless. She did not believe Kevin was only using her to create a scandal and that he was actually gay. If he liked men, Wiltspoon was filled with young talented men. He already had someone he liked. Why did he have to come to Jensburg to bug her?What was Kevin’s motive if it we
