Chapter 2304

Author: Gu Lingfei
Jacob returned the greeting. He looked at Kevin, then Hayden. There was pity in his gaze when he looked at the latter.

Hayden was the most outstanding young talent he had ever seen. He would have wanted to set his daughter up with Hayden if he had one of similar age to Hayden.

Jacob never thought Hayden was unlucky enough to be targeted by Kevin, someone so thick-skinned at that. Hayden had clearly expressed that he did not like men, yet Kevin kept bothering him.

One after another, Kevin’s love rivals gave up as they could not compete with Kevin. They were not as shameless as him, and Hayden did not give them any chances either. Though these women hated Kevin, they could do nothing about it.

“Yes. I’m waiting for Mr. Queen to get off work. We’re having dinner together.”

Kevin understood why Jacob looked at him one kind, but he could not care less about how others perceived him; everyone thought he was gay.

However, they had no idea that Hayden had deceived them.

    It was evening by the time Hayden and Jacob’s discussion ended. “I look forward to working with you, Mr. Rowling.”Hayden stood and they both shook hands. Jacob smiled and said, “Likewise.”“Let’s have dinner together, Mr. Rowling. My treat.”Hayden looked at the time and invited Jacob, but he declined apologetically, “Thank you, Mr. Queen, but maybe another day. I have to be home for dinner tonight to celebrate my fifteenth wedding anniversary with my wife.”“You definitely have to accompany your wife then. I’ll treat you to a meal another day.”Hayden did not force it and saw Jacob off to the first floor. “I’m good on my own here, Mr. Queen. Have a good evening,” said Jacob as he stopped at the building entrance, not letting Hayden see him off any further. Hayden remained on the spot until she saw Jacob’s car leave the company. “Mr . Queen.”“Mr. Queen.”It was time to get off work and Hayden was the only one heading back in while most people were walking out.Those w

    When Hayden returned, the secretary had not left and reminded her, “Mr. Queen, Mr. York’s still in the VIP lounge.”“Noted. Clear my schedule for tonight. You can get off work now.”“Okay.”The secretary could not repress his happiness upon Hayden canceling the night’s schedule. If his boss was not going to attend any business engagements, he could rest for the night and accompany his girlfriend. As Mr. Queen’s secretary, his days would always be busy. He had not been on a date with his girlfriend for a long time now and she had not been happy about it. After instructing her secretary to clear her evening, Hayden walked to the VIP lounge and pushed the door open. She saw Kevin sitting on the sofa with a cup of tea in his hand. He was reading the newspaper, taken from the coffee table. He looked relaxed and not a bit annoyed. When he sensed another’s presence in the room, he raised his head and saw Hayden. He put the cup of tea down and walked to her before asking concernedly

    Hearing Hayden’s words, Kevin felt sorry that she had to work overtime. He was worried she would tire herself out. He said, “Forget it. You can attend the wedding on the day itself. I initially wanted to bring you around Wiltspoon for some fun if you could stay for a few days.“I’ll be wherever you are. I can be with you in Jensburg too. We don’t have to be in Wiltspoon.”Hayden’s expression darkened. She scolded, “Don’t you have anything to do? To think your brother handed over the management of York Corporation’s F&B businesses to you. If those stores go out of business, it’ll be on you. You haven’t been doing anything for many days.”If Kevin were as tenacious in running his businesses as pestering Hayden, he could definitely be a business tycoon. Well, as if he was not already one. “The industries York Corporation is involved in are stable. Besides, I’m not being completely idle. I handle urgent matters of the hotel too.”Kevin was always smiling, making Hayden want to pinc

    Hayden ordered her driver to stop the car when she saw Caroline. “What happened, Ms. Fisher? Is there a problem with your car?” Hayden rolled the windows down and asked Caroline. Caroline turned around when she heard someone speaking to her. When she saw Hayden, she walked over. “My car suddenly broke down and I don’t know why.”“I’ll have my driver check it out for you.”Hayden instructed her driver to examine Caroline’s car. The driver was not only cool-headed and mature, he was also good at driving and repairing cars. Hayden got out of her car and her bodyguards followed suit. After the driver inspected the car, he told Caroline, “Ms. Fisher, I think you should get your car towed. I can fix cars, but I don’t have the necessary tools now.”“It’s okay. I’ve called for a tow truck to take my car to a workshop.”Caroline had already contacted the car service center when Hayden saw her. The driver seemed hesitant to voice his thoughts but Hayden and Caroline caught onto his

    Hayden saw Caroline enter the hotel before telling her driver, “To Queen Manor.”“Okay.”Hayden rested in the backseat and pondered Caroline’s issue. Those who meant her harm were obviously her family. Madam Fisher and her extended family were the ones who truly wanted Caroline to be the next matriarch. Celine used to be the heir of the Fisher family but she was not Madam Fisher’s biological daughter. It was unlikely her extended family would allow her to be the successor.If Caroline could not hold her fort as the true heir, then the daughters of her extended family would start aiming for the position too. Hayden supposed that those who tried to harm Caroline were her family, and while her extended family might have known about it, they did nothing to stop it. Although Caroline was the Fishers’ flesh and blood, she did not grow up in the family, and neither did she have much chance to interact with them. Her extended family was worried that she would be even more impartial

    Even if Madam Fisher wanted Caroline to gain some experience in overcoming tribulations, she would not risk Caroline’s life. If the car had been hit by other cars when it broke down, it would be challenging to ensure that Caroline was unscathed. Madam Fisher might have seemed like she still favored Celine and mistreated Caroline, but she prioritized blood relations. Caroline was her biological daughter, who had finally returned to her. She would not risk Caroline’s life, no matter how ruthless she was. “That’s Caroline’s problem. We can just stand by and watch. Let’s not interfere.”If Kevin were the one who had met Caroline on the way, he would not have helped her. He supported Serenity. Caroline’s mother, Madam Fisher, was most likely the person who murdered Serenity’s grandmother. Hayden did not speak as she was aware of Kevin’s stance. “Is Hugh back?”“No.”Kevin added, “Donnie and Sophia aren’t home too. We’re the only ones having dinner tonight.”He would have a

    “Alright. I’ll make the plans. I’ll show you a good time tonight.” Kevin would do anything to get a date with Hayden. She looked at him and smiled. “I’m happy just to be with you. You’re a joy to be around.” Kevin chuckled gleefully. Hayden was the wife for Kevin. She was a reliable and practical person, so he did not expect her to be the type to say something sweet. Although there was nothing suggestive or lovey-dovey about what she said, Kevin still took it as sweet talk. He was so smitten with her words that he could develop a sweet tooth.During dinner, Kevin was attentive to Hayden’s needs. He would have fed Hayden if he could. She amusedly looked at the big plate of food in front of her and said, “You didn’t have to order so much food for me. I don’t know where to start.” Kevin proceeded to order dessert and another drink for her, apparently to help her wash down the food. Hayden had no words. She then did the same to Kevin, ordering additional appetizers fo

    “Yes, but I won. Well, now you had to place a bet with me.” Hayden’s heart went out to Kevin. “Alright. I mean what I said. I don’t go back on my word. I’ll take the risk with you.” Now that Kevin had her word, he jolted up and said, “Excuse me, I need to go to the men’s room.” With his hands over his stomach, Kevin ran to the washroom. Hayden burst out laughing. She could tell Kevin’s feelings for her were genuine. A while later, Kevin emerged from the bathroom. “Do you need to go to the hospital?” Hayden asked with concern. Straightening his back, Kevin said, “No. I’m okay. Let’s go for a stroll to help the food settle. Then, we can head out.” He had never eaten so much in his life. He was so full, he had an upset stomach. Fortunately, he won the bet. He won her promise of forever. She gambled on her marriage, but he did too. Hayden rose to her feet and docilely uttered, “Come on. I’ll walk with you.” The pair walked out of the main residence. Hayden took Ke

    Lilian often messed with the medicinal herbs her master cultivated, which led to her being chased and scolded by him.It seemed her son had inherited her restless nature.“How’s Sonny been lately?”Liberty had been on edge these past few days because Caroline had been preparing to lure her three brothers into a trap and had not had time to call her son.“Same as usual, but it seems like things have soured again with the Browns.”Serenity added, “Sonny still answers when Hank calls him, but he doesn’t seem happy when his grandparents visit. He doesn’t like going to the Browns’ place, and he doesn’t want to take their calls either.“Hank’s mother and sister are truly incorrigible. They must have been badmouthing you and Duncan in front of Sonny again, which is why he’s upset with them.”During the holidays, Sonny had stayed with the Browns for a few days and started to warm up to them.However, who would have thought that the mother and daughter would start spouting nonsense in f

    Once the baby was born, he would apply the knowledge he had learned over the past few months to care for the baby. He was determined to be a competent and responsible father.Serenity released her arms from around him and shifted to her side.Zachary let go, too, allowing her to turn.Then, she planted countless gentle kisses on his face.“Babe, with you here, the baby and I will be just fine. Don’t worry too much,” Serenity comforted softly after kissing him.“You are my rock. If even you are nervous, I’ll start feeling anxious too, and that won’t be good.”Hearing this, Zachary immediately said, “Seren, don’t worry. I’ll protect both of you. Alright, I won’t be so nervous anymore.”He gently touched her rounded belly again. “Lil’ Bun should be a calm kid. He’s not that mischievous.”He felt that the baby’s movements were not too intense.Serenity wanted to tell him that there were times when the baby kicked more vigorously, but she decided against it, knowing it would only m

    “Just hit the gym a few more times. Lately, you’ve been spending less time there.”Every day after work, he would come home and orbit around her. As a result, he had less time to work out.It was normal to gain a few pounds eating well and exercising less. Did he really think he could eat anything without gaining weight?The reason he could maintain a model-like physique before was that he exercised daily.“Ow.” Serenity suddenly cried out in pain.This startled Zachary so much that he nearly jumped up, asking anxiously, “Is it stomach pain? Are you going into labor? Let’s go to the hospital right away.”He was about to pick her up, but Serenity stopped him by pressing his hand.“Don’t be so nervous, Zachary. It's not time yet. It’s not happening so soon. It’s just the baby kicking again. His kicks are getting stronger.”As she entered the later stages of pregnancy, the little one inside her was growing stronger. Sometimes, a couple of kicks from the baby could actually hurt.

    Zachary, afraid that his wife might refuse to spend time with him at his office in the future, emphasized that he was not busy today.He had already cleared his morning schedule because he needed to accompany his beloved wife for her prenatal checkup.His secretary was well aware of Serenity’s checkup dates. Whenever he saw Serenity turn up at the office with his boss, his secretary would quietly adjust his schedule.Sometimes, on the day of the Serenity’s checkup, his secretary would not schedule any appointments for Zachary at all.Even if appointments were scheduled, Zachary would request they be canceled or rescheduled.Now, in Zachary’s eyes, his wife’s matters were the most important.With Alex now able to share the workload, Zachary felt that he, as the eldest of his generation who had shouldered the bulk of the burden for so many years, deserved a break.Plus, there was the elite team the company had trained; if not now, then when would they be put to use?Everyone was

    Tony turned around and left.Only after hearing the door close did Carrie dare to open her eyes.She had woken up while Tony and his son were on the phone, but she did not dare move, fearing that Tony might suspect her of eavesdropping.Just now, when that old lecher stood by the bed looking at her, there was definitely a murderous glint in his eyes. She could feel it.Sooner or later, he would kill her.Carrie was filled with panic. She wanted to escape but was afraid she would not succeed. No one was there to help her.For a moment, Carrie even considered running to Camryn to confess everything, but she quickly dismissed the thought. The reason she ended up in this situation was entirely due to Camryn.She and Camryn were sworn enemies. Their conflict would not end until one of them was dead.

    “You should have gotten rid of them all back then and cultivated a network of people loyal only to you.” Manny felt that his father should not have spared those people in the first place.Tony said, “There were too many of them, all relatives and friends with the same goal as us. We couldn’t eliminate them all at once.”Back then, he had incited everyone to join him in wiping out the entire main family, sparing neither the elderly nor the children.It was because they were all from the collateral branches, jealous of the main family’s long-standing control, and shared a common goal that his conspiracy succeeded.He had also spent over a decade waiting for the right opportunity.Who would have thought that even after wiping out the main family, he still could not obtain the family seal, token, or totem? Without these, he could not become the true head of the family and could only act as a proxy. Many of the connections loyal to the head remained inaccessible.Moreover, much of the

    It was his father. Manny composed himself and picked up Tony’s call as he walked toward his car.“Hey, Pops.”“How’s it going, Manny? Has there been any progress?”Tony was still in Carrie’s room at the moment, but had gotten up and walked to the balcony to call his son.Carrie was still fast asleep, though her face was set in a frown. She was obviously discomfited.Tony had pestered her for the majority of last night, so it would be weird if she did not feel any discomfort.Despite her begging, Tony would not let her go. He even forcefully drugged her to make her mess around with him while out of it. He was simply an old pervert.Before she passed out, she cursed him in her heart. However, she knew that Tony only treated her so roughly because she was just his mistress—a tool for him to vent his frustrations on.If she really was his wife, he definitely would not treat her like this.In the past, she had ambitions of taking Mrs. Longbottom’s place and becoming the real missus

    Tati also finished her plate of pastries.She followed Isabella out.“Isa, you’re always so busy and exhausted. If you’re feeling even a little unwell, you should have a good rest. Stay home for the day. I can handle the work you have on hand. It’s the same either way.”Tati wanted Isabella to take the day off so Isabella could spend some time with Austin and nurture their relationship.However, Isabella still declined Tati’s kind offer.She said, “Not today. There’s an important meeting today, and I have two important clients to meet. I’m fine, really. Don’t worry. From now on, I won’t touch alcohol.”Given her current status and position, no one would dare to force her to drink during social engagements.Many people also knew that Isabella would not drink outside her home, fearing that she might fall victim to someone’s schemes.However, Isabella would occasionally make an exception. When she was in a good mood, she would have a couple of drinks.Hearing this, Tati stopped t

    Austin still smiled gently and said, “It’s all thanks to Ms. Isabella’s guidance.”He felt that he had indeed improved a lot.Grandma May really understood him well. The wife she picked for him could actually help improve his culinary skills.“After eating the sweets, I feel much better.” Tati picked up another piece of pastry and ate it.Austin quietly retreated, not wanting to disturb their conversation and also to avoid overhearing their private matters.“Just ignore him. Are you really going to skip work because of him?”Isabella added calmly to Tati, “If you let him provoke you, he’ll only cling to you even more. If you act like he doesn’t exist and don’t respond no matter what he does, he’ll naturally give up once he sees that you’re completely unresponsive.”Tati said, “I’m afraid that he’ll go and bother Edith and Eleanor if he doesn’t get anywhere with me. They don’t have the same resolve as we do.”She, therefore, decided to bear the brunt of it.“Every time I see hi
