Kelly instantly frowned, obviously unhappy.
Anna took out her phone, dug out some photos, and passed her phone to Kelly to see.
Kelly did not want to look at them, so she turned her head away and leaned back in her seat.
Anna started seriously, "Kelly, the person introduced this time is actually quite good. He's tall and gentle, and I hear he's quite decent in private too. Lydia has tried her best to find the best match for you."
"I don't like him." Kelly opened her eyes and stated unhappily. She continued coldly, "Tell her to stop trying so hard to find someone for me. No matter who it is, I don't want it." The next moment, Kelly turned on the computer in front of her and continued to work.
Anna was silent for a moment before concluding, "Kelly, you just haven't seen Aiden right now. If you did, you would fall in love with him."
When Kelly heard his name, her mouth twitched. She blurted, "In Zentiscape, Brayton sounds like beaten."
"Huh?" Anna was stunned, but then it dawned upon her. She did not understand at first, but once she did, she was surprised. She thought, 'Does the name Brayton sound that bad?' She really wanted to laugh. "Okay, sure. If you want to beat him up in the future, you can do so any time. I'll probably be happy to see it happen," Anna gloated.
She smiled and teased, "Kelly, seeing that you like Zentiscape so much, I heard that there's a saying in Zentiscape called 'tough love.' If you can hit Brayton so often, it means you love him very much right?"
Kelly was speechless and ignored Anna.
Two days passed quickly, and Hayden arrived in the blink of an eye. Charlie rushed to the airport early in the morning to pick him up. He couldn't wait anymore.
Looking at Charlie's anxious face, which he found a little funny, Hayden still comforted him. "Don't worry too much."
Charlie replied, "I can't help it."
"I understand," Hayden said with a smile.
Charlie took Hayden back to the hotel. He knew that Hayden would be coming back, so he booked a suite that had several rooms in it. Once Hayden arrived, he could just stay in one of the rooms.
That was settled in the morning. In the afternoon, Hayden took Charlie to the headquarters of Jones Group. As they had made an appointment in advance, they went in smoothly this time.
Kelly also arrived not long after. When she stepped into the conference room and saw the man standing beside Hayden, she stopped in her tracks.
Charlie was also excited. He almost wanted to go over immediately, but Hayden gently grabbed him.
Charlie instantly realized that he could not be too obvious, as there were outsiders present.
Hayden walked over and greeted politely, "Ms. Jones."
"Mr. Hoggard, please take a seat." Kelly quickly reacted and immediately extended her hand to invite him.
They soon arrived at the conference room.
Hayden sat down and asked with a smile, "Would you mind if we talked alone?"
Kelly's heart was beating quickly, but she appeared composed. She glanced at Charlie calmly and suggested, "Let's go to my office."
The reception room had company surveillance cameras that many people could access. However, in her office, the surveillance cameras could only be viewed by the direct lineage of the family, preventing monitoring by those with ill intentions.
Hayden nodded and said, "Okay."
Charlie was anxious, but he knew that Claire's current status was special, so he couldn't casually pull strings.
Kelly quickly got up and led them to the office. Once they entered the office, Kelly closed the door. Almost immediately after closing the door, Kelly looked at Charlie.
Charlie was also nervous, or rather, aggrieved.
