The corners of Mary's mouth twitched slightly, and her plans had backfired!Although this daughter-in-law, Hazel, hadn't been approved by the whole family, she still had a marriage certificate which reserved her a big position. And now, only a ceremony was left to make things official.Many ladies and aristocrats dreamed of marrying into this family. All their life, they had done everything to catch Zac's and his family members' attention. But her son disappointed everyone and fell in love with a humble woman. Without having either money or royal blood, Hazel would become her daughter-in-law! The mere thought of it frustrated Mary. She must had saved the universe in her previous life. Otherwise how could she have been so lucky?Either way, Mary was convinced she had hypnotized her son."Zac is stubborn, so he needs a good wife who is capable of taking care of him. See, in the ancient times, all the great kings had excellent queens. They guided their husband in a
Hazel wrinkled her nose and said, "I decided to help you because you helped me defeat Sunny before. It's none of our business to care for each other, so you don't need to worry about me. I won't be someone who is like a strong glue that you won't be able to take off once it has stuck to you. I am like a magic sticker that you can remove whenever you want and won't pollute the environment."What she said came as more of a blow than a comfort to Zac.His bright eyes suddenly darkened. "Maybe I'm the one who's a strong glue. Once I am stuck to you, you will never be able to get rid of me for the rest of your life."She smiled and her eyes took the shape of a beautiful crescent moon. In the setting sun, she said jokingly, "If you are willing to stick to me, then I'd be quite happy to accept it. You are so handsome. You can be appreciated as an ornament at home, and you carry a ton of money with you. I can get as much money as I want from you anytime and lead a comfortab
'You brat, if you wanted to avenge your wife, you didn't have to stab me in the back, did you?' he thought.Albert patted her shoulder, saying, "You should just mind your own business. Don't be so nosy." His words set Mary's mind at rest. He and Minny had been treating each other as strangers and had not seen each other for a long time.Without saying anything more, Mary walked out of his study with a smile.Hazel had been thinking about what gift she wanted to get for Holy for the past two days.Looking at her distressed face, Zac smiled. "You can ask Goel. He's Holy's best friend. He'll know what Holy likes."Why didn't she think of that?Hazel hit herself lightly on the head for not coming up with that idea earlier. Then, she hastily dialed Goel's number.Now, her problem had finally been solved.When Wednesday came, Hazel decided to go alone, but it was impossible for Zac to rest assured and he thought he had to be there to protect her, so he
Baron's eyes lit up as he fixed them on Hazel."You are...""This is sister Hazel, brother Zac's girlfriend," Holy quickly introduced before Zac could, putting heavy emphasis on the word 'girlfriend'.Baron was taken aback by the revelation. His eyes darkened.The wrinkles on Vicki's forehead deepened as she frowned at the scene before her. Wasn't he supposed to marry Valery? Why did he involve himself in this matter?"Daddy, Grandma, I'm going to blow out the candles now," Holy cut in.Baron quickly hid his displeasure and put on a warm expression as they sang a birthday song with the children.Even with the merry atmosphere, Vicki's mood did not improve.After chopping the cake, she asked Holy to take her friends to the yard to play. She had things to clear with Zac.As the kids filed out, Alice remained still. Vicki rolled her eyes at her. "Get out of here, Alice. You don't need to be concerned about
Clutching her hands tightly, Zac said with an evil smile, "The battle is between men.""If you weren't the successor of your family's wealth, Elizabeth wouldn't have been making these great efforts to make her daughter marry you. She is counting on you to help her son take the family over," Hazel said casually, while feeding him a cherry. Her manner was so nonchalant that it looked like they were just talking about an insignificant game.Zac gently rubbed her nose.She was no more in a daze and was talking smartly. She could see right through Elizabeth's intentions."That's why I asked you not to get too close to Alice. The fight between them has nothing to do with us. Let's just be the audience and watch the show quietly.""Then as the governor of the company in the future, which one is better for you and your family, Vinton or Alice?" Zac asked with a smile. Hazel's bright eyes were misty. Like all businessmen, he too sought profit. Alt
The woman looked pale as she coughed a little, trying to push him away. But she was too weak for him to even budge. "Yes, I do. But I can just dance for you. How about dancing?"Zac waved his slender index finger and said, "I'm not interested. I only accept French kisses today."Taking a deep breath, Hazel tried to escape. But the harder she fought, she was pressed down and unable to move. She was like a helpless lamb, unable to resist the wolf.Even at her weakest, she wanted him to know that she was forced to do this.After a long while, the lack of oxygen made her head start to spin. She nearly fainted from suffocation.When he let go of her, she collapsed in his arms.He narrowed his eyes at her. He wouldn't force her. He was willing to wait until she was willing to give herself to him.After watching the film, they went back to their room.As they were lounging on the bed, Zac casually mentioned that he wou
"Alice and her little sister used to have a happy family, but you had to ruin that. You tore apart their families, wrecked their lives, and separated them from each other! You're so full of mercy and morality right now. Tell me, when you decided to insinuate yourself into someone else's marriage and drive the former wife and her children away, did you ever think of how sad the children would be if they couldn't see their father or mother? Did you think of how the pain of separating a mother from her child is worse than actually killing her? How many years have it been since the last time Alice saw her mother and sister? And how many years has it been since the last time Alice's sister saw her and her father? Who made it all happen? It's you! You are a disgusting homewrecker!"She stared hard at Elizabeth's rapidly reddening face, paused for a while to catch her breath, and continued, "I don't know if you're addicted to being a mistress, but now you want to consign your daug
As long as Hazel was recognized by the head of the family, she would officially become Mrs. Hazel.It was obvious that the two elders favored Zac very much. As long as he talked to them, they wouldn't get in Zac's way.At this rate, it seemed impossible for Valery to win back her position the clean way.Hazel was also very surprised at the turn of events, not knowing whether she should be happy or worried.It was good to get recognition. But right after the wedding, it would be not easy to get away, right? If icy guy really wanted to keep her his wife, then she would be trapped with him for the rest of her life. She could imagine it now. Her husband would go out and have fun while she wasted away at the bar. She would become a living cliché of a poor rich wife.'Oh, my God! How did my life get to this point?!'She turned her head to look at Zac. He was smiling happily, as if he was a hunter who caught his prey. Something cold slithered on her back. Fear? Trepidation? It seemed her gut
