Hayden pursed her lips and said, “Go with me to the dinner banquet tonight.”“Sure.”Hugh did not refuse his sister. He asked, “Are you getting off work now?”“Yeah.”“Then so will I. I’ll head home and eat with you.”The siblings usually lived separately in their respective houses, but they would occasionally go back to the old residence together.Many times, Hugh would go to his sister’s house to eat. His sister was a picky eater, so the food the chef she hired made was exceptionally delicious.Hayden did not say more and hung up the phone.After walking out of the office, she asked her secretary, “Mr. Kevin isn’t waiting outside the gates again, is he?”There were several hotels in Jensburg that belonged to York Corporation and were under Kevin’s administration. However, since those hotels were operating normally, there was actually nothing important for Kevin, the managing director, to deal with.Thus, he had plenty of time.Hayden was different. She was the President of

“If Mr. Hayden was a woman and stood beside Mr. Kevin, they would look like a match made in heaven. Even though they’re both men, when they stand together, it’ll give people the feeling that they’re husband and wife.“It’s no wonder Mr. Kevin liked Mr. Hayden after just meeting him a few times. Say, do you think Mr. Hayden will accept Mr. Kevin’s pursuit in the end?”Her colleague said, “How could that be? Mr. Hayden is a straight man. There’s no way he’ll accept Mr. Kevin. Besides, Mr. Kevin might not really like Mr. Hayden. I heard Mr. Hugh say that Mr. Kevin was urged to marry by the elders of his family. He didn’t like the noble girl his family arranged for him, so he came to Jensburg on the pretext of business trips.“Furthermore, he’s using Mr. Hayden to create a sensation by saying that he likes men.”The whispered discussion between the two receptionists was not heard by Hayden.When she walked out of the office building, she instinctively looked toward the entrance first.

Kevin was much more cunning than Zachary.Kevin’s car was parked horizontally at the entry of her villa.Hayden’s motorcade was forced to stop. They could not proceed further.When Hayden’s car appeared in Kevin’s sight, he got out of the car while holding a large bouquet of roses.It was different from the bouquet that morning. This time, he had someone make a money bouquet with 50- and 100-dollar bills.That was because Hayden gave an order that no florist in Jensburg was allowed to sell roses to Kevin.Kevin called Wildridge Manor to help, but there was no way they could send the flowers so quickly.Since that was the case, he had to use a money bouquet instead.Besides, he already bought out all the roses in the flower shops in the morning. His men cleared out the flowers even from shops located in the suburbs.They had not replenished their stock yet.Kevin leaned against his car, holding the money bouquet in both hands and looked at Hayden’s car with a smile.He was dr

Hayden’s bodyguards got out of the car.They went forward, but they could not deal with Kevin.Kevin’s identity was different. Back then, all Hayden’s fans could do was persuade her, but they could not be directly dragged away.“Mr. Kevin.”A bodyguard said politely, “Mr. Kevin, please move your car so that our young masters can drive their car in.”Another bodyguard requested respectfully, “Mr. Kevin, please stop pestering Mr. Hayden. He’s not interested in men.”Even if Hayden were interested in men, Kevin would not be the one.Seemingly, Hayden was not interested in women either.The bodyguards had stayed by Hayden’s side for many years. From their observation, Hayden had not shown interest in any women.Kevin acted as though he could not hear what the bodyguards said. He knocked on Hayden’s car window, signaling her to either get out of the car or press the window button.“Mr. Kevin, Mr. Kevin.”Hugh scurried over. He stretched out his hand and grabbed Kevin by the shoul

“Exactly, Mr. Kevin. My brother isn’t interested in you, but I am. Why don’t you settle for me? My brother and I are twins, and we look alike. Being together with me is the same.”Hugh came over with a cheeky grin.After receiving a glare from Hayden, Hugh touched his nose and stopped laughing.Kevin fixed his dark eyes on Hayden’s handsome face. He pictured her having long hair and wearing a female outfit. No doubt, she would be stunning. She would be the most stunning woman he had ever met.“Mr. Hayden, everyone has the right to love. I think you’re my future partner. I’m interested in you and would like to woo you. I know you can’t accept my love instantly. It’s okay. As time passes, you’ll be used to it.“I’ll let time and action do the talking. I’m serious about our relationship. My love for you won’t change, and I’ll remain loyal.” Kevin darted a glance at Hugh and said meaningfully, “Even if someone bears a strong resemblance to you, he won’t be able to replace you in my he

Upon entering the house, the housekeeper offered Kevin a seat on the couch.“Mr. Kevin, what would you like to drink?” the housekeeper asked courteously.As Hayden said, Kevin was a guest. Therefore, the housekeeper had to treat Kevin as a VIP. “Please give me a glass of warm water. Thank you.”“Alright. Please wait a moment, Mr. Kevin.”The housekeeper turned around and walked away. She poured a glass of water for Kevin.When Hugh came in, there were already fruits and pastries on the coffee table. Hugh did not need the housekeeper to serve him. He took a bottle of drink from the refrigerator on his own. After that, he uncapped the bottle and took a sip, which cooled him.“The weather is warm. After taking a sip of the cold drink, it feels refreshing.”The housekeeper said, “Mr. Hugh, Mr. Hayden is going to criticize you when she sees this.”“But why did she put a few bottles of my favorite drinks in the refrigerator? Aren’t they for me? I don’t drink much anyway. I only n

“I’m absolutely clear about Hayden’s preferences. Having said that, why should I let you know? If I do, it means I betray him. I won’t betray him.”Kevin burst out laughing.He was not expecting to fish for Hayden’s preferences from Hugh.It might be easier to get the answer from Donald and Sophia.Hugh might seem cheerful and simple, but he was very protective of Hayden.“Mr. Hayden went upstairs once he came in, huh?”Kevin placed the money bouquet by his side. He took the glass of water and took a sip. Then, he raised his head and looked toward the second floor.“Hayden will be attending a party later. He’s used to taking a shower and getting changed before going out. Then, he’ll eat something and bring along two bottles of wine.”Kevin said, “Why would she bring along two bottles of wine? Are the locals here in the habit of bringing along two bottles of wine when they go to parties?”Kevin thought it was normal for Hayden to take a shower before she went out. She might be

Kevin tilted his head and looked at Hugh before he asked, “What benefit do I get for buttering you up? Are you going to matchmake me with Hayden? If so, I’ll butter you up nicely.”Hugh responded, “Even if I would like to help you that way, I don’t dare to do it because Hayden will beat me to death. In case you didn’t know, I grew up being punched by Hayden a lot. He bullied me every day. He might seem educated, but it’s just a facade.“He has a tendency to act with violence. Beware of being domestically abused by him.”Kevin said, “Coincidentally, I have a tendency to violence too. I’m looking for a partner who can fight with me. When we have conflict in the future, we can get into a fight regardless of who’s right and who’s wrong. The party that loses is the one at fault.”Hugh was at a loss for words once again.Kevin’s mind was different from those of Hayden and Hugh.Seeing Hugh’s speechless face, Kevin patted Hugh’s shoulder and said with a laugh, “Hugh, I won’t buy it.
