Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2817

“Let me know if you need my help, Hugh. Don’t hold back. Whatever other people can do for you, I can do the same.”

Hugh desperately wished to bury himself in a hole.

Kevin’s words felt like bullets hitting his body. Nevertheless, he had to continue smiling.

“You two can continue at that side of the room. Don’t disturb me working,” Hayden said after downing half a cup of coffee. She wanted nothing to do with this.

“I’ll leave right now. I won’t disturb you any longer.”

Hugh quickly sat on the sofa in the lounge area, and Kevin followed suit.

They continued flattering each other, which made Hugh utterly awkward.

After some time, Hugh hugged Kevin’s shoulders and said with a smile, “I admire you a lot, Kevin. I think you’re great and the only one who’s good enough for my sister. Everything I said just now was out of jealousy.

“Hayden and I have been siblings for almost three decades, but she has always been more of a brother to me. She had never worn women’s clothing for me, but she did it and revealed her true gender to everyone for you.

“Everything she did was for your sake. I couldn’t help but be envious of you. However, I was also useless. I’ve been protected under my sister’s wing for over twenty years. I love her a lot. I only spewed nonsense because I love her and can’t bear the thought of her getting married to you too soon.

“Please have mercy on me and let me off the hook. No one else can replace you as my brother-in-law.

“I heard Hayden say you recorded my nonsense with your phone. Why would you do it for such a trivial thing? You should delete it. Don’t let my parents hear it. You know they’re already annoyed with me. If they hear the recording, they’ll surely beat me up.
