In a panic, Hazel covered herself with a towel and asked, "How did you get in?" She distinctly remembered locking the door."I have the key." Zac smiled mischievously. Then he came over to her and took her into his arms. Feeling the cold temperature of her body, he paused and asked, "Are you cold?"After getting wet in the rain, how could she not feel cold?"Let go of me. I need to change my clothes." She tried to push him away as hard as she could but she ended up grunting in pain. She had accidentally pulled on her injured knee after putting in all her strength to push him.It was not until then that Zac noticed that her knees were still bleeding. He guided her towards the bed and helped her sit down. From the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of the wet clothes on the floor. He frowned and asked, "What happened?""I got wet in the rain when I went to see the Epiphyllum, and I fell on the ground on my way back," Hazel said in a casual tone.Zac stroked her head tenderly then t
Mary pursed her lips and said, "No matter what you say, she is still liable for Valery's cold, so it is her duty to stay and take care of Valery."Zac's eyes flashed angrily again. "Mommy, I'm not expecting you to be fair to everyone, but please, at least don't lose the ability to tell right from wrong." With that, he lifted Hazel up and carried her out of the room."Zac!" Mary was outraged. She thought of what Elizabeth said about how those women who wanted to outlive their husbands all possessed the charm to bewitch their husbands. Now, her son was in such a situation. It was horrible.Zac came back to their bedroom and laid Hazel on the bed. His eyes were full of love."You idiot, don't do such a silly thing again. What if you also catch a cold?""I'm fine. I can take some medicine if I catch a cold." She smiled lightly, "Don't you care about that child? I had to protect him for you.""I care about you more. You need to take care of yourself properly." His voice was like a gentle n
"Okay, I'll get to the point," Mary said in a serious tone. "I don't want this accident to happen again, and it doesn't matter to me whether you did it intentionally or not. Valery's baby is the eldest grandson of our family. If anyone dares to hurt him, I will not spare that person.""Don't worry. I won't do anything for her anymore." With a soft voice, Hazel said these words in a neither overbearing nor servile manner.There was a muscle on Mary's face that twitched a little. Last night, she asked Hazel to take care of Valery but she didn't do it, and today she even said such words to block her. She wouldn't have dared to challenge the authority of her mother-in-law if she wasn't under the protection of Zac."Valery is pregnant. You are responsible for taking care of her. To be the lady of our family, you have to be tolerant and generous. If you are not mature yet and can't do this, you'd better not interfere in the affairs of our family for the meantime."Mary's voice was slow and
Hazel was surprised when she received a call from Mandy.Apparently, she had already arrived in Dragon City and since she wasn't really familiar with the place, she asked Hazel if she could tour her around and take her to some good shopping spots.Right after her phone call with Mandy, Hazel remembered that Eva had also arrived in the city yesterday to prepare for the initial audition of War Emperor. She quickly dialed her number and invited her out so that the three of the could have a happy get-together.Dragon City was a paradise for shoppers: you could buy everything from cheap goods to the most expensive luxury products. The city was committed to fulfilling the needs and wants of everyone in every consumption level.Hazel went to the hotel to pick up Eva first, and together they went to the shopping street to look for Mandy.Mandy was in a Starbucks. She looked gloomy all alone but the moment she saw Hazel coming towards her, her face brightened up and a big smile appeared on her
Hazel smiled and said, "Now you shut up, Eva. We all know that among us, Mandy has the best figure. She's wearing a D-cup, for god's sakes!""I don't think it's all natural, though," said Eva whispered. Although she spoke in a very low voice, Mandy still heard it. Her face immediately became contorted with annoyance, and a frown appeared on her lips. "Oh Eva, quit being jealous and hateful," she said, sounding incredibly displeased. "Yes, you're pretty, but that rear cannot be flatter!""I don't care," retorted Eva. "I will never have plastic surgery. I love myself and I am already contented with what I got!" Then, like a kid, she stuck out her tongue at Mandy. Eva and Mandy's friendship was mostly built through their unrelenting quarreling. Whenever they got into a fight and they got too heated up because of each other, Hazel would come in between them like a big sister and help them make peace. Today, she just let them be. It had been a long time since she heard them fight like this
In the evening, when Hazel came back from the business center, she was very happy.She was finally relieved.Mandy didn't blame her anymore, and their friendship was as strong as ever.After having a comfortable shower, she leaned her back against the bedhead and began to watch the TV program. She couldn't help but sing along when the theme song of the show played.Noticing that she was in a good mood, Zac asked her with a smile, "How was your day with two besties today?""Excellent." Hazel nodded her head crazily. "Ice guy, I am so happy. When Mandy found out about our marriage, she didn't get angry at all. Instead, she even wished me happiness. I don't need to worry that our friendship will be destroyed by my relationship with you anymore."Zac raised his eyebrows in surprise. "Was she really so generous?"Hazel glared at him and said, "Well, are you a little disappointed that she has forgotten all about you?"Holding the back of his head with both hands, Zac leaned against the bedh
Hanson looked at Hazel's puzzled face and smiled bitterly. "I still remember that day," he began, putting emphasis on every word he was saying. "It was the first day of the new school year. A young girl wearing a white bubble skirt ran up to me and stared at me for a full five minutes. With her big backpack on her back, she honestly looked ridiculous." At this point, he paused for a chuckle. "Apparently, she wanted to ask me a question. She said, 'How can I find the place for the new students?' She was stuttering—it was so cute. At that moment, I immediately knew that she was the one. I fell in love with that interesting little girl." He sighed. "But then the Dean wanted me to become the second class' counselor. I usually would just say yes to whatever he asked of me, but that time, I somehow found the courage to request him to transfer me to the first because the girl that I liked was in the first class."He paused and caressed Hazel's face. "Do you know why I was always there whenev
"Really?" A glimmer of hope shone in Hanson's eyes.Hazel nodded. She desired nothing more than freedom.He took her face in his palms and placed an affectionate kiss on her forehead. Looking at her with his loving eyes, he said, "From now on, I will be with you all the time. Even for a second, I won't leave you.""Okay." She tried her best to force a smile. But there was something unnatural about her expression. He noticed that both her lips and face were pale as a white sheet. It seemed like she hadn't eaten anything for days. With sincere concern, he said, "Haven't you eaten yet? How about I take you to eat steak?"She shook her head. In the past two days, she had lost her appetite. She was very upset and felt repulsed by the sight of food. Even the tastiest food seemed to have lost its flavor.Her mind was always busy replaying her memories with Zac. He was a drug that had her addicted! She hoped time would heal this pain."If not steak, what do you want to eat?" he asked."I'll c
Hazel clutched the lipstick gun and was ready to attack.Just when the tall and thin man was one meter away from them, a loud bang was heard. His left eye was bleeding immediately. He fell to the ground in a howl and rolled on the ground with his hands covering his eyes. At the same time, he screamed like a pig.One of the punks screamed. Sam put his hands over his head and squatted down in fear of being hit.Hazel glanced at Pana, and the latter shook her head and said, "no, it’s not me."Hearing the footsteps behind them, the two of them looked back in a hurry.A group of awe inspiring men in black were walking towards them. The leading one, tall and straight, with an imposing manner was Zac. Wearing a pair of big sunglasses, he looked more cold and gloomy. He held a gun in his hand, and the bullet came from it.The punks dropped their swords and were to run away. They had never been frightened like this before. Soon they were surrounded by the black men, with guns pointing at their
Seeing Vinton's expression, Essie took the opportunity and said, "actually, your sister has told me that if you are appointed to the chairman of the company, she won't take out the Commission. After all, you are the eldest son of the Xu family and she is a daughter. Even if she was appointed to be the chairman, she can only take charge of the company on behalf of others. Sooner or later, the Xu's Group will be handed over to you. But she didn't expect that it was your mother who wanted to be the chairman, so she had to stop her. The Xu's Group belonged to Xu family and any chairman of it must have the Xu family's last name. You see, in the ancient times, when Empress Wu became the emperor, all the people of the Wu family came out to fight for the throne. If your mother takes the throne, the members of her family will definitely join the board of directors. By then, you are not sure if you can be the chairman easily. "The more Vinton heard, the more he thought that Essie's words made

Zac darkened his face.'Holy, can you stop being a jerk?'"You little boy, what do you know?" Zac rubbed Holy's hair indignantly."A fair lady is a gentleman's good mate! Sister Hazel is so beautiful and excellent that there are so many men chasing her. If you don't take action now, she will surely be taken away by someone." Holy laughed cunningly, deliberately making him feel threatened.A touch of rage flitted across his face. He knew that Hanson was annoying enough. Now even his biological brother wanted to ruin his reunion with Hazel. Humph, nobody can take his woman. Nor can his own brother."You brat, I think you should remind your sister that a rich and handsome man like me is always chased by women. If she doesn't take the initiative, I can't guarantee that I will keep a integrity for her all the time." He also had to give this puzzled and empty look a top, let her sober up and have a sense of crisis.Taking another gulp of tea, she couldn't help but spit it out. She heard jok
Zac walked quickly to them, leaving Leila behind. "Why are you two together?" He asked and frowned slightly."Why can't we be together?" Hazel retorted sourly."Zac, since you have divorced, we are just ordinary friends. And about what happened to Hazel, you don't need to ask more." Walt said slowly, distancing himself from Hazel.They were not friends. Hazel corrected him in her heart. Zac told her in person that they only had business relationship at the moment.There was a touch of melancholy on the face of Zac. Was his brother going to take advantage of his weakness and swoop in? Even if it was Zac's own brother, Walt would never have an idea on his wife. When he was about to speak, Leila walked to him from behind and put her hand in his arm. "Brother Zac, let's go to the bar counter for a drink?" She dragged him away on purpose.Looking at them, Hazel was furious and said, "excuse me." After saying that, she walked away with Walt arm in arm.Pulling his arm out of her grip, Zac i
"I... I just want to have a look at him. After all, I was pregnant for ten months and I miss him. " Said Valery in a pitiful voice."It seems that you are very sober and not mad." Zac snorted. If not for Rabi's sake, he would never let her live so comfortably."I... I took medicine every day. After taking medicine, I became clear headed. " Of course, Valery wasn't mad. She just pretended to be mad because she was afraid that Zac would punish her."Rabi has nothing to do with you. From now on, stay away from him." Zac warned."Got it." Said Valery in a trembling voice."Get out, as far as you can." When Zac growled, Valery just ran out like a rat. Her heart was full of hatred. She would try to get back what Hazel owed to her.Rabi didn't cry at the moment. As a child, he didn't remember what had happened just now. With the comfort of Hazel, he forgot what he had seen just now and suggested going to take the ferris wheel.The ferris wheel had special meaning to Hazel and Zac. It was the
Seeing her hesitation, Zac knew that the pajama was designed by herself. This muddle headed woman had always been confident in her fashion taste and design level. Even if someone doubted her, she didn't care. She just pretended that she didn't appreciate it. How could she be so depressed? Was it because...He couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth unconsciously. "Do you care about my opinion very much?""I... I don't. " She lowered her head in a hurry, as if his guess was right, and her long eyelashes covered her sparkling eyes. She didn't understand why, but she cared about his thoughts very much. She didn't care when others doubted her taste and disliked her design. She just hoped... He liked it.Her evasive look convinced him of something. "I see. You put on your night robe deliberately, and the trick is now covering up. You want me to see your gown inside."Hazel was almost pass out. If he was such a imaginative man, why not to be an screenwriter?"Don't think too much. I
"I'm in charge of this project now. If I don't come, who else can?" Hazel rolled her eyes at him and said angrily, "don't look down upon me! You are such an idiot to do clothes design for me!".Zac handed her a architectural design drawing. "Well, then please make a specific presentation."Hazel was dumbfounded. She was just a rookie and didn't know how to do the professional issues like design, construction and cost.Zac sneered, "don't tell me. You can't even understand the design drawing."'I really can't understand it.' Hazel thought in her heart. "I'm now the executive of the company and in charge of whatever comes into view. The project team of Hengyuan has arrived in C Island two days ago. They will report the specific development to you.""You know nothing! Aren't you afraid that they may fool you?" Zac gazed at her with sharp eyes."Malcolm will check on it." She lowered her voice, lack of confidence. She had been under
"Don't you have someone with you tonight?" Hazel stared at him angrily and found that Leila was not with him at the moment. She should be going to the makeup room to fix her makeup."Do you really want me to be with another woman?" He frowned slightly and felt a little displeased."It's none of my business whether you have women or not, but I'm a neat freak. Stay away from me if you touch other women. Don't make me dirty." She turned her head angrily and looked away from him. Thinking of the image that he made out with Leila, she was filled with anger and wanted to give him a punch.There was a sparkle in his dark eyes. He reached out and held her in his arms."What are you doing? Everyone is watching us. " Hazel felt ashamed and annoyed and wanted to push him away in a hurry. But she couldn't get rid of him because of his strong arms. "Everyone knows that you are my wife. Even if I have you now, nobody dares to say no.""Your ex-wife." F
