Chapter 1987
“Mr. Hayden, since you don’t have vases in your office, I’ll send you a few in the afternoon. You can display the flowers I give you in them. Your office will look more beautiful as well,” Kevin said. Hayden did not want to accept Kevin’s bouquet, but he did not care if she liked it or not. He simply put it on her desk. Afterward, he returned to Hayden’s side and reached out to pull her but she evaded. “Kevin York, please behave yourself and don’t get handsy.” “Don’t you always stress that you’re a man? No one is at a disadvantage when a man pulls a man’s hand. What are you afraid of?” After saying that, Kevin forcefully pulled Hayden to the sofa in the waiting area. “I also bought you a set of clothes and a pair of shoes.” He picked up the bag with the dress and stuffed it into Hayden’s hand. As for the bag with the high heels, he took them out for her and put them on the floor, saying, “Sit down and try these on to see if they fit. I visually measured your feet and boug

“It’s almost lunchtime now. Let me treat you to lunch. I’ll send you back to work after that, and I’ll leave,” Kevin suggested to Hayden. “That’s not necessary. I’ll be grateful if you just leave. Kevin York, please just give me a break.” Hayden was going crazy. Kevin had only pursued her for two days, but she could not take it anymore. He had endless tricks up his sleeves and always had a way to restrain her, angering her and rendering her helpless. Hayden thought that she must have been Kevin’s enemy in the past life, which was why he was persistently seeking revenge on her in this lifetime. Kevin responded seriously, “Hayden, I truly like you. I’m serious about you, and I’m genuinely pursuing you. I might be shameless and thick-faced, but I’m trying to pursue my wife, so I must be shameless. “If I’m diffident and give up easily after being scolded and rejected by you, I’ll have to be single for the rest of my life. It’d be a pity for a man as outstanding as me to be sing
Chapter 1989
Hayden’s eyes flickered. She asked Kevin, “What do you mean by that? Your sister-in-law and her sister look like Caroline? Does your sister-in-law have lost sisters?” “I can be sure that Serenity only has an older sister, Liberty, and no younger sister. She has a cousin, but her cousin doesn’t look like Liberty.” Kevin continued, “I just found it strange how strangers can share such an uncanny resemblance, so I wanted to ask you if the Fishers have any displaced children—not recently, but decades ago. “Serenity and Liberty can’t be displaced children of the Fishers. I know about the Hunts very well. “However, their deceased mother was an orphan and seemed to have only been sent to an orphanage when she was a few years old. She was later adopted, but unfortunately, she was given to someone else to raise after her adoptive parents gave birth to their own child. She was later given to someone else again, and this was repeated several times. “This caused Mrs. Stone to put in a lo
Chapter 1990
“Hayden, I envy you. Your parents aren’t anxious about your marriage and don’t rush you at all.” Hayden pursed her lips. It was not that her parents did not pressure her, but they could not rush her. After all, she was dressed as a man. Her parents wanted her to go on blind dates with men, but if she did, she would probably scare the men away. Many people were pursuing her, but they were all ladies. She could not marry them even if she wanted to. As such, her parents were helpless. They could only urge her brother, but Hugh disregarded his parents’ pressure. Every time he was urged to get married, he turned a deaf ear to it. As long as he was out of the house, he would forget what his parents said. His parents were helpless in this. “Mrs. Stone’s maiden name is Fisher. My big brother’s mother-in-law is Mrs. Stone’s younger sister, so her maiden name is also Fisher. Given how Caroline and Liberty look so similar, it’s highly likely that Mrs. Stone is Madam Fisher’s nie
Chapter 1991
Kevin said to Hayden after some thought, “You can, but you have to be careful and leak the news to the Fishers with someone’s help. Don’t do it yourself, lest you get caught in their family’s strife. “Madam Fisher is old, but she’s still in good health. Besides, she has been ruthless since young, so she’s not to be messed with. He teased her as well, “Both the real and fake daughter of the Fishers like you.” Hayden responded, “Caroline only admires me. I made it clear to her that there won’t be any outcome between us, and then she let go of this.” As for Celine, who once thought she was above the rest and would be the Fishers’ future family head, Hayden disliked her since before, let alone now. Not to mention Hayden was a woman, even if she was a man, she would not choose Celine. “Hayden, how about you don’t interfere in this matter? I’ll arrange for someone to spread the word.” Kevin did not want his future wife to be involved in the Fishers’ fight. Hayden looked at hi
Chapter 1992
Hayden was speechless. “Grandma May, you know about me and Kevin?” “Of course. The internet is so developed now. Although it happened in Jensburg, as long as I surf the internet, I can also see it from Annenburg.” Hayden suddenly felt that her attempt to complain through this phone call would fail. Grandma May knew about it, and so did Kevin’s mom. Nevertheless, if Grandma May, who was known as the stabilizing force of the Yorks, did not react to it nor control Kevin, what could Hayden complain about? It would be futile. The outcome would probably be the same as what Zachary said. As long as Kevin was happy, they would not care about who he was pursuing. “Grandma May, I’m a man.” Hayden continued in a low voice, “I’m not homosexual, so it won’t end well if Kevin wastes his time on me. I do think that he’s treating me like this because he doesn’t want to marry the wife candidate you chose for him. “We’ve all heard about the wife candidates you chose for your grandsons,
Chapter 1993
Kevin said with a smile as he got out of the car, “Okay.” Donald saw that he brought many things over and told him, “Kev, don’t buy so many things when you come in the future. Our family doesn’t lack anything, but if anything at all, we’re lacking two people—my two children are still single.” Kevin giggled and responded, “As long as you and your missus don’t mind, I can take up one of those spots.” “Can you? Will your family agree to it?” “I make my own decisions.” Donald was relieved. He and his wife originally had their eyes on Kevin and wanted him to be their son-in-law. They only dropped the idea when Hayden told them that Kevin had a wife candidate. Who knew, he suddenly started pursuing Hayden passionately by sending her flowers and gifts every day. Well, it had only been two days. Nonetheless, to the Queens, the two days that Kevin pursued Hayden felt like two years. “Donnie, is Mrs. Queen not at home?” Kevin asked because Donald went out by himself. His

Donald was speechless. He could neither admit nor deny it, thus he simply kept quiet, not knowing that his silence was acquiescence, allowing Kevin to further confirm Hayden’s identity as a woman. “You’re not gay?” Donald asked on purpose. Kevin grinned. “If Hayden is a man, then I’m gay. Whether I’m gay or not depends on her.” Donald was lost for words again. He wanted to ask how Kevin knew his eldest “son” was a woman but felt that he would be admitting his daughter’s identity if he did. Hayden would be angry at him again if she found out. “You young people should handle your own affairs. We as elders won’t interfere.” Donald could only cover up like that. Kevin smiled and said, “Donnie, you and Mrs. Queen are open-minded like my parents. I’ll invite you to Wildridge Manor someday when you’re free. My parents can definitely get along with you.” Donald beamed as well. As the two continued to walk out, he said, “We haven’t seen your parents since Mr. Bucham’s wedding.
