Kathryn said, “My mother was tired and wanted to go home to rest, so my dad offered to let me go to the hospital to accompany and take care of him.”

Kathryn was completely open with Hayden.

If she were not Kathryn, she would genuinely want to become close friends with Hayden.

The two got along well.

Hayden chuckled twice, albeit sarcastically, but she chose not to say anything further.

After a while, Kathryn finished her cup of tea and stood up to say goodbye.

Hayden accompanied her to the elevator entrance, where they coincidentally encountered Hugh, who was coming upstairs. After exchanging greetings, the siblings stood at the elevator entrance, watching as Kathryn entered the elevator and the doors closed behind her.

Once Kathryn left, the siblings walked back together. As they walked, Hugh asked, “Why did Kathryn come to see you again?”

Hayden glanced at Hugh and replied calmly, “She’s determined to fight for the Farrell Group, and she needs to prove that she is capable.”

If they truly cannot defeat Queen Enterprise, they will not hold Kathryn accountable.

Many large companies were eager to partner with Queen Enterprise, as the Farrell Group lacked strength. Moreover, it was widely known that Hayden had strong opinions about the Farrell family.

“Elder brother,” Hugh called out, before switching to “Sister.”

Hugh smiled and remarked, “Sister, now that everyone knows you’re a woman, why don’t you wear women’s clothes? If you dressed like a woman, I could justifiably call you my sister. But when you dress as a man, I feel like I might be addressing you incorrectly.

Oh, everyone keeps asking me about my sister. Who would have thought I’d be the saddest person? I used to have a brother to support me and shield me from life’s storms. I thought I had nothing to worry about. Who knew my brother would become a sister? Now I have no one to…

support.”

Hugh felt the weight of responsibility on his shoulders. In the future, he would remain Hayden’s steadfast supporter. He needed to perform as well as Hayden to uphold the Queen Enterprise and protect her from the York family’s bullying.

Reflecting on it, the York family wouldn’t dare to bully Hayden.

If Kevin fails to shield Hayden, Hugh would step in to take her back. He would ensure that she never faced injustice as long as he was there to care for her.

Hayden joked, “Who said you can’t change with me? I’m your sister; wouldn’t that be better?”

Hugh replied, “This isn’t a decision I can make alone. My parents raised me to be a man. What can I do? I wish I could be my sister’s sister.”

If Hugh were Hayden’s younger sister, with such a capable supporter, she would truly be carefree and free from worries.

“I’m still getting used to this,” Hayden admitted, revealing her identity as a woman primarily to protect Kevin from accusations of homosexuality and to maintain her own reputation.

It was a mutual decision between her and Kevin to advance their relationship.

The two elders were discussing the engagement date.

They would get engaged, marry, and hold a wedding when time allowed.

With a smile, Hugh said, “I know my sister isn’t used to this.”

After that, he pulled out a red brocade box from a hidden pocket in his suit. Placing it before Hayden, he smiled, “Sister, I bought you a necklace. Let’s see if you like it. You’re not only bare but also lacking in jewelry.”

Mrs. Queen has an abundance of jewelry, and as long as Hayden is willing to wear it, she can choose anything she desires.

Having interacted with many women, Hugh had a good understanding of their thoughts.

He presented Hayden with a

necklace, believing that she would be pleased to receive it.
