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
“I heard that even his parents don’t know.”Hayden said in a low voice, “Mr. Zachary definitely knows. Kevin and his brothers revere him. They prioritize his opinions in every matter and would talk to him about anything. They might not tell their parents, but they’ll surely tell Zachary.”“Zachary’s mouth is sealed. It won’t be easy to get information from him. You can try getting information from Mrs. York. Serenity is Zachary’s beloved. She basically knows everything Zachary does.”Hugh said, “Aren’t Old Mrs. York and Mrs. York on a trip now? It might be difficult to find her.”Hayden went silent again. After some time, she said, “I’m not expecting you to investigate everything in a day. You can just keep this in mind. Of course, the quicker, the better.”“What if I can’t find anything?”Hayden’s expression and gaze darkened. She said icily, “Then we’ll have to adapt accordingly.”No matter what scheme Kevin had, he would definitely reveal his motives one day. “How about you
About ten minutes later…“Mr. Queen.”The driver suddenly turned his head and said, “Mr. Queen, Mr. Kevin is already waiting at the hotel with a bouquet of flowers.”Kevin was not at Fortress Hotel. With a big bouquet of roses, he went opposite instead, to the hotel belonging to Queen Enterprise. He stood at the entrance, awaiting Hayden’s arrival. She said she had a lunch appointment. Whenever she had a meal with clients, the venue would always be her company’s hotel. Kevin had chased her all the way to the hotel and even arrived ahead of time to wait for her. Upon hearing that, Hayden’s expression darkened. Hugh said puzzledly, “He was still at the entrance of our company when we left. How did he arrive earlier than us?”The driver replied, “Mr. Kevin must’ve taken a shortcut.”Hugh scolded him, “Then why didn’t you take the shortcut?”The driver was speechless. He did not know Mr. Kevin would tag along and be quicker than them. Hayden took a deep breath. She told
However, it was unfortunate that such a handsome man was shameless. Hayden snatched the bouquet over forcefully and threw it on the ground before Kevin. She raised her foot and stepped on the bouquet several times. After that, she walked past Kevin. “I’ve accepted the flowers. You can leave now, Mr. Kevin.”Hayden left cold words as she left. Kevin looked at the bouquet on the ground and watched as Hayden left. He chuckled. “She’s feisty. That’s interesting.”Initially, he was not interested in Hayden at all. However, the time Grandma May gave him was almost up. He had to make a move. However, he still had no interest in Hayden. After pursuing her, he found her reaction amusing and finally developed some feelings. Hugh saw the flowers on the ground. He walked over. Kevin immediately put on an embarrassed expression. “Mr. Kevin.”Hugh bent over and picked up the bouquet his sister had stepped on earlier. “Don’t be sad. My brother really doesn’t like men. If you prefer
