Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 2790

Hayden said, “Drive carefully on the road.”

Kevin said, “Don’t worry, I’m an experienced driver. Just get ready. I’ll pick you up, and then I can accompany you to the banquet.”

Hayden hummed, “Then I’ll wait for you at home.”

Kevin: “Okay, see you later.”

Hayden said that Kevin would know why she took half a day off when he got there, but he did not ask further on the phone.

Let’s rush to the Queen family’s old house first.

After ending the call with Kevin, Hayden wanted to put down her phone, but when she saw Mrs. Queen sitting opposite, she retracted her hand and pretended to send a message to Kevin.

“Stop pretending.”

Mrs. Queen stood up and walked over, reached out, took away her mobile phone, and put it on the coffee table.

“Mom, I can’t leave my phone without my phone. If anything happens in the company, please contact me.” Hayden wanted to take her phone back as a shield.

Mrs. Queen said, “Didn’t you leave all the matters in the company to Hugh and let him handle them?” He doesn’t have to attend the banquet tonight anyway.

He’s not much younger than you, just ten minutes younger, but he is a boy, and he should be the one to shoulder the heavy burdens. Sons are preferred over girls. Of course, men should shoulder the heavy burdens.”

Hayden said with a smile, “Mom, what are you talking about about favoring boys over girls? That is the old feudal idea.”

“For others, it is an old feudal idea. In our family, the explanation is that men should bear the heavy burden and daughters should take it easy. This is our family’s preference for sons over daughters.” Mrs. Queen said this and then sat down next to Hayden.

Hayden didn’t want to argue with Mrs. Queen, so she responded: “Yes, yes, my mother is the most beautiful, and everything she says is right.”

Mrs. Queen stared at her.
