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.
Donald took Kevin to go fishing. The two of them fished for the whole afternoon. In the evening, they returned home with two buckets. Donald’s bucket had over ten fish, whereas Kevin’s had tens of fish. “Kev, you’re so good at fishing. We were both fishing with the same rod and the same bait, but why did the fish always go to your side and take your bait? This is the least I’ve caught since I started liking fishing.” Donald walked and complimented Kevin for knowing how to fish. Kevin responded with a smile, “Donnie, I was just lucky. Perhaps the fish came to my bait because I’m good-looking.” Donald laughed out loud. “Yes, yes, yes, you’re young and handsome. Even the fish are charmed by you. Kev, what else do you know?” “Donnie, I think you should ask what I don’t know. My brothers and I are multi-talented. My nana said it’s always good to have more skills. We learned everything we wanted to learn and those we didn’t want to learn. “In a way, we’re well-versed artistic
Hayden was mad, but she still called her brother and asked him to go home for dinner together. “Why did Dad call us back for dinner? Are we celebrating something at home?” Hugh asked. He and his sister normally lived in their respective villas and only went home for a meal with their parents during the holidays. “Kevin went to our house and went fishing with Dad the whole afternoon. Dad said he caught half a bucket of fish. Kevin wants to grill fish, so Dad asked us to go home to try some.” Hayden was resentful as she explained. Kevin was best at fawning over people. Hayden’s dad would not last more than three seconds in front of him and might expose her secret indeed. The same applied to her mom. Hugh smiled and said, “Kevin is really something to have made Dad so happy. Since Dad asked us to go back for dinner, let’s go then. I haven’t had drinks with him for a long time either, so I’ll have a couple with him tonight.” Hayden responded helplessly, “I have a social engag
Celine stood at the entrance of Queen Enterprise. She looked at the cars driving away and was so mad that she stomped her feet. It was too hard to pursue Hayden. She saw that Kevin was openly pursuing Hayden so brazenly, so she learned from him and began to officially pursue Hayden too. In the past, Celine liked Hayden but did not dare to make her move. This was because the Fishers had a rule that the family head could only find a live-in son-in-law. Hayden was the head of Queen Enterprise and he was outstanding. Unless Hayden loved Celine deeply, Hayden would not become a live-in son-in-law for the Fishers. Knowing that well, Celine did not passionately pursue Hayden as other admirers. Now, it was different. Celine was no longer the Fishers’ successor. As much as her adoptive mother loved her, their century-old family rule could not be violated. Everything that originally belonged to her would be snatched away by Caroline. Celine was not resigned to the outcome. The on
Little did she know that after spreading the matter, the outcome was not what Celine imagined? Everyone said that Caroline did well. Why should a fake drive a million-dollar luxury car? Even if it was taken back from Celine and sold for cash, it was better than letting her use it. Afterward, the conflict between Celine and Caroline became deeper. At this moment, when Celine saw Caroline getting out of the Maybach in a woman’s suit, she could not help but ask, “Sis, where did you go today? You’re wearing such formal clothes.” “I went to work. Don’t you know I have to go to work every day? Weren’t you like this too?” Caroline’s response immediately rendered Celine speechless and jealous. Yes, Celine used to be like Caroline. She had to go to work every day and followed their mom to learn how to manage the Fishers’ business. She had to meet with clients every day to talk about business and socialize, thus she was extremely busy. Although Celine was busy, she could enjoy the
Caroline heard Celine’s shout, so she stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Celine. After some thought, she walked back and went in front of Celine. She leaned slightly toward Celine’s ear and said softly, “What’s the use of them loving you? I’m the one who will succeed the family head!” Once she became the family head, the first thing she would do would be to make Celine change her last name. She would not let Celine be a Fisher anymore, and she would ask back all the money Celine got from the Fishers little by little. Lastly, she would kick Celine out of the family. Why should the person who harmed her still be able to enjoy glory and wealth in the family? Her parents and brothers had been with this fake daughter for more than twenty years and had affection for one another. However, she did not have feelings for Celine, so she would not show her any mercy. Caroline was able to establish her company after graduating from university. She spent many years stumbling along
Caroline’s words were extremely heartless, but they were the truth. Ever since the incident of the real and fake daughters, Celine’s status among the elites of Jensburg declined sharply and took a great fall. Those who used to befriend her and even fawned over her were now staying far away from her. Even if she could still be active in the upper class and was still the darling of her family, the people in this circle were sophisticated. As much as she was being favored at home, the people outside no longer showed her face. The rich guys she used to disdain only surrounded Caroline now. Caroline stood up straight and smiled with squinting eyes. “Are you happy now? Then I’m going back inside. Don’t be a b*tch in the future, and don’t think I’m a pushover!” Following that, Caroline turned around and walked toward the main house again. Celine was left standing there. Her face was red and her expression was dark. She gritted her teeth and muttered to herself, “Caroline, one da
