Hayden: “…”
If Hayden had known that Kevin would be so troublesome and noisy, she would have accepted the bouquet of flowers he sent and promptly tossed them in the trash after he left.
Perhaps that would have prevented such a commotion.
Kevin looked up at the sun blazing in the sky. The brightness dazzled his eyes, making it difficult for him to see. He quickly lowered his gaze and asked Hayden, “Mr. Queen, are you off work?”
“I’m sorry, but I have a lunch appointment and I’m not available,” Hayden replied firmly.
Kevin smiled and said, “That’s fine. Mr. Queen may not be free today, but he will always be free in the future. I plan to treat Mr. Queen to dinner every day and place a sea of flowers at the entrance of Mr. Queen’s company until he agrees to dine with me.”
Hayden felt a surge of anger that made her teeth grind.
Thanks to her self-control, she refrained from confronting Kevin.
She saw no point in continuing the conversation; he was clearly determined to manipulate her.
Hayden waved to the security guard at her company and instructed, “Please throw all these flowers in the trash for me.”
Then, she turned to her secretary and said, “Contact the owners of the flower shops in Jensburg. From now on, no one is allowed to sell flowers to Mr. York. Anyone who does will face consequences from me.”
Kevin responded, “Mr. Queen, you’re being too dictatorial. Their flower shop barely makes two dollars a month. It’s rare for them to have a significant client like me, but you’re preventing them from serving me. I’ll portray you as the villain and curse you never to marry a wife in your life.”
Hayden would never marry a wife in this lifetime.
She was female herself.
What kind of wife would she marry? She could only marry her husband, or…
Recruit a son-in-law.
Hayden coldly replied, “You don’t need to concern yourself with my matters.”
She intended to secretly provide financial support to those working in flower shops.
In short, Kevin could not be allowed to showcase a sea of flowers at her company’s entrance every day.
Kevin smirked, saying, “Well, I don’t mind, as long as you’re happy.”
Regardless, he had achieved his objective.
He was determined to declare war on Hayden through the vast arrangement of flowers, not to mention informing her that he genuinely wanted to pursue her.
This would surely become a hot topic in Jensburg.
Kevin gestured for his team to stop interfering, allowing Hayden’s staff to handle the cleanup of all the flowers.
Once Hayden saw that the sea of flowers had been cleared, she turned and walked back.
“Brother.” Hugh followed her.
Hayden paid little attention to her younger brother.
She was well aware that when she emerged, her brother had been chatting and laughing with Kevin, the very person who infuriated her.
It was all a joke at her expense, wasn’t it?
“Brother, Kevin confessed that he was just trying to create a buzz to distract the elders from pressuring him to marry,” Hugh explained as they walked.
