Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2707

Hugh smiled but returned after taking a few steps. He approached Kevin and asked cautiously, “You won’t tattle to my parents about me, right?”

“I won’t as long as you promise to do the same.”

They had some control over one another.

Kevin was afraid of Hayden getting mad, while Hugh feared his parents urging him to marry.

Even if Donald and Sophia did not urge Hugh to marry, they would give him a good scolding.

Kevin had become their new favorite person. He was more adored than Hugh, the couple’s real son.

Hugh often complained to Hayden that he probably was not their parents’ biological son. Donald and Sophia liked Kevin too much. He and Kevin might have been switched at birth.

Hayden’s reply was an ashtray flying toward him.

Hugh felt he was at the bottom of the food chain within the family.

Sigh. It was because he was never in a serious relationship.

If he were to bring a girl home, his place in his parents’ hearts would rise.

However, upon thinking about how much his parents looked forward to having a daughter-in-law, Hugh had a feeling that his position in the family would stay the same even if he brought his girlfriend home. His parents' adoration and attention on Kevin would simply be redirected to his girlfriend.

A son-in-law was still another family’s son, and he would be taking their daughter away. However, their son’s girlfriend would be marrying into the family, so naturally, Don and Sophia would favor their future daughter-in-law.

“Look at you getting all smug.”

Hugh muttered, “Once I get a girlfriend and bring her home, my parents will lose interest in you.”

Of course, he was only all talk.
