Hayden released an inward sigh of relief now that he knew she was not Tammy's relative. "You should focus on your career. I'm sure you have a bright future ahead," he said.
Lina was a smart woman and instantly noticed the message hidden in his words. "Hayden, is it my looks that you don't like, or my career? I don't have to be a dancer..." she said.

Sometlater, a waiter brought over their coffee, and after finishing their coffee, Hayden glanced at his watch and paid the bill. When Hayden and Lina arrived back at the church, they saw Tammy and Avery chatting and laughing.
As soon as they spotted Hayden and Lina, the two stopped laughing.
"Why are they back so soon? Are they not happy with the date? Is Lina not satisfied with Hayden, or is it the other way around?" Avery wondered.
Tammy, on the other end, was certain that Hayden was the one who was not happy with the match.
On their way here, Lina had looked Hayden up on the inte and was absolutely satisfied with him to the point that she was willing to give her career up for Hayden.

Avery glanced at Lina regretfully. "Lina, why don't youe and have lunch with us later?" "Thank you for asking, Aunty, but it's fine. My mother already has lunch prepared, so I will go home," Lina said politely as it would only be awkward for her to join Hayden's family for lunch.
"I will send you home." Tammy immediately walked out of the church with Lina.
Once they left, Avery turned to look at Hayden. "The two of you didn't have anymon interests?" "We didn't even talk much." Hayden looked away sheepishly. "Mom, don't you think her voice is a little hard on the ears?" Avery was shocked. "Her voice? I think her voice is sweet!" l.ne "I get goosebumps listening to her." It was the first the ever felt chills when listening to someone. Still, he did not make any negativements in front of Lina, as he knew that Lina was a brilliant young woman and that they simply were not suitable for one another. "I get it. You don't like that sweet type of girl," Avery said. "I will let the others know." "It's fine, Mom. I will handle this on my own. Hayden would have never e discussed the subject with his mother had he not had a nightmare of being surrounded by women. hovels "Don't be shy! It's normal to go on blind dates." "I don't want to go on blind dates anymore, Mom." Hayden did not wish to go through the sthing again.
Avery respected Hayden's choice.
"Alright, then will text Tammy later and tell her to stop looking. If you want to find a girlfriend, you need to go outside more often! If you only travel from hto work and back home, you will never find anyone." "Let's wait until after Layla's wedding!" At noon, the two arrived at the hotel to meet up with Elliot and found that Lilith and her family were there as well.
"Aunt Lilith, Uncle Ben," Hayden greeted them and noticed that there was a young woman sitting next to them.
