Kevin embodied the essence of brown sugar as he chased after Hayden.

Everyone watched the two of them, and no one dared to interfere in the matters of these two powerful individuals.

Hayden’s admirers despised Kevin, seeing this audacious man harass Young Master Queen all night.

Hayden approached the organizer to apologize, stating, “Mr. Miles, I’m sorry, but I have other commitments.”

Everyone’s patience regarding the ongoing situation had worn thin.

Miles understood and replied, “Mr. Queen, your matters take priority. You should attend to them first.”

He concluded, “I completely understand, Mr. Queen.”

Hayden nodded in gratitude and then exited the hotel with her bodyguard team.

Hugh was hesitant to leave, so he hurried to his sister’s side and asked, “Brother, are you going back now? The banquet isn’t over yet.”

Hayden replied, “If you don’t want to leave, you can stay until the banquet concludes. I’ll arrange a car for you.”

After a moment’s consideration, Hugh said, “Alright, brother, you go ahead. Just make sure I have a car.”

With that, Hayden departed.

Under everyone’s gaze, Kevin also exited.

Miles finally realized that the Third Young Master of the York family had requested an invitation not to help him, but for Hayden’s sake.

It appeared that the third young master of the Zhan family was indeed interested in men, as was Young Master Queen.

Consequently, those who had once considered Kevin as a potential son-in-law completely dismissed that notion.

Even if Kevin wished to marry their daughters, they would not allow it, fearing their daughters would end up widows by marrying into the York family.

were dishonest.

What Kevin didn’t anticipate was that his open pursuit of Hayden would inadvertently affect his younger brothers.

“Hayden.”

As soon as Kevin exited the hotel, he hurried after her and stopped her as she was getting into the car.

Hayden waved her hand dismissively.

“Mr. York, please have some self-respect!”

Hayden warned him coldly.

Kevin apologized, saying, “Hayden, I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to take advantage of you; I just wanted to hold you back.”

Taking a few deep breaths, Hayden felt her temper easing.

“What else do you want, Mr. York?”

Hayden asked, exasperated.

If she had done something wrong, she believed God could punish her, but she didn’t want Kevin to torment her.

Kevin responded, “Hayden…”

Hayden interrupted, “Don’t call me that!”

Seeing her angry expression, Kevin’s heart softened slightly, and he smiled: “Alright, I’m pursuing you, but I haven’t caught up yet. Since you can’t accept such familiarity, Mr. Queen, I’ve had too much to drink and shouldn’t drive. We’re both in the Yuvinn villa area; could I accept a ride from you?”

Hayden pointed diagonally across the street at the Fortress Hotel and coldly replied, “Mr. York, it won’t take you more than five minutes to walk back to your hotel.”

His house hadn’t been renovated yet, so he was staying in a temporary accommodation.

Hayden added, “Besides, Mr. York, your house isn’t ready yet, so why not go back to Yuvinn Villa Area instead?”

Kevin smiled, “I can’t sleep, but I would love to go to your house for a bowl of hangover soup. I feel awful.”

“No!” Hayden flatly refused, “I don’t have hangover soup at home.”
