– Donald: “Hayden is my daughter. What I desire is a son-in-law, not a daughter-in-law.”
Naturally, Donald would not give false hope to wealthy women or lead them to believe that pursuing the “in-laws” path is futile.
Kevin took the elevator directly to the top floor.
Upon exiting the elevator, he saw Hayden escorting a client, accompanied by several young women who appeared to be the client’s secretaries, as indicated by their professional attire.
Neither the client nor Kevin recognized each other.
To avoid interrupting Hayden, Kevin quietly stepped aside.
Hayden personally led the client downstairs.
Familiar with Hayden’s office and lounge, Kevin walked directly to her office and pushed the door open after the group entered the elevator.
Once inside, he made himself a cup of coffee. Just as he settled onto the sofa, Hayden returned.
“How did it go last night?” she asked softly as she approached him.
“The family of the bodyguard from the Farrell family, who died in place of Sister Liberty, has come to handle the funeral arrangements. The Farrell family will compensate his family, and the insurance company will also provide a payout, as all the bodyguards in the Farrell family have high-value insurance.
I’ll inform Sister Liberty later that we’ll go visit them this afternoon. Even if the bodyguard was a victim of the Farrell family’s schemes, we will present ourselves as merely offering support to his family and provide them with some financial assistance.”
Currently, the car accident is tentatively classified as accidental.
Without sufficient evidence to prove that the Farrell family acted maliciously, they must take enough precautions to avoid being blamed.
The deceased bodyguard of the Farrell family can only affirm that he…
was unfortunate due to her boss, Matriarch Farrell, who was exceptionally cruel. The first time she invited Liberty over for dinner, her intentions were lethal. If Liberty hadn’t been so defensive and claimed she was too drunk to drive, she, Jim, and others might have lost their lives.
“Um.”
Hayden hummed thoughtfully. Once she sat down, she leaned in close to Kevin and whispered, “I heard that Holden committed suicide. That elderly couple is quite cruel. However, men who are capable of cheating often stop thinking about it once they’ve acted on it.”
Her gaze dropped.
With a charming smile, Kevin crossed his legs. “Hayden, don’t worry; I will never cheat. If you marry me, I will be completely loyal to you. All the men in our York family are committed to their marriages, love, and families.”
Hayden chuckled softly. “Don’t all men say this before they get married? After the vows, many break the promises they made during the ceremony. Kevin, I actually agree with Mrs. Farrell’s actions this time. If you dare to cheat in the future, you’ll either end up divorced or become an eunuch.”
Kevin’s expression turned serious as he replied, “Hayden, I won’t have to choose between those options.”
Hayden reached out to touch his face, a gesture she rarely made. “I still believe you,” she said quietly, leaning in to kiss him on the cheek.
When she tried to pull away, Kevin wrapped his arms around her and kissed her on the lips.
After a lingering kiss, Hayden found her breath slightly unsteady. She gently pushed him away, stood up quickly, and sat down on a single sofa.
Hayden asked, “Sister…”
“Liberty, is she alright?”
