'Is Valery that well-prepared to get into the family?' Hazel sneered in her mind. It seemed like Valery could do anything without scruple as long as she had her mother-in-law's support.Should Hazel try her best to please the rich mother-in-law as well? But given the present situation, even if she did whatever she could to please Mary, Hazel would not be able to change her mind.Elizabeth was her best friend, and she saw Valery as her own daughter. More than that, Valery also had Mary's grandson in her belly. How could an outsider like Hazel stand a chance?It was much more realistic for her to suck up to her father-in-law because he didn't seem to like Elizabeth and her daughter very much.Zac didn't say a word. If his mother insisted on doing things that would push him away, he would leave with Hazel.In the afternoon, before Elizabeth left, she sent Sage, one of her family's servants, to take care of Valery and help her deal with Hazel.Sage had been
Sage pretended to leave the lake, walked into the woods, and found a place to hide. Meanwhile, Valery walked slowly towards Hazel on her own."Sister Hazel!" She called Hazel's name as intimately as she could, and plastered an insidious false smile on her face."Humph!" Hazel muttered in a low voice. The last thing she wanted was to talk to Valery, but she still managed to squeeze out a smile for her.While she was walking up to Hazel, she suddenly stopped and fell to the ground. Thinking that she might have a stomachache, Hazel quickly jumped up and helped her up. "Are you okay?" Hazel asked.Then, at that very moment, a fat figure suddenly ran out of the woods and shouted, "Help! Help! Help! Miss Valery was pushed by Hazel!""No, I didn't..." Hazel wanted to explain what happened, but when she saw the malicious smile on Valery's face, she immediately understood what was happening.This was a frame-up.Zac was the first to arrive, and after him came
Their appearance could be compared to a meteorite falling into the Pacific Ocean and causing enormous waves.Since Valery was pregnant with Zac's baby, everyone thought that she would marry Zac. But now, Zac had actually brought another woman with him to a high-end party. Besides, the woman standing next to him had always been Leila. They did not expect him to have a new girlfriend!Everyone at the party had their eyes on the couple. Zac was always the focus of celebrities and the center of the topic in this kind of gathering. So naturally, the new woman standing next to him would be targeted by the crowd.Before Essie and Zac could settle down, the socialite divas rushed over to greet them. They looked at the woman next to Zac with the same expressions: envy and hate.With furrowed eyebrows, Essie pretended to be playful and annoyed. "If you ever take me out again, you must buy an unexpected insurance for me in advance because if looks could kill, I would alrea
Hazel followed Jim's gaze, and there she caught the sight of a stunning woman walking inside the hall. The woman had a unique kind of beauty, which reminded Hazel of a fairy from the snow mountain. She had skin as fair as snow, and with angelic eyes that were both striking and elegant.When Hazel left Dragon City, Alice was already eleven years old. Despite her face maturing throughout the years, Hazel quickly recognized her from the first sight because of her distinctive features.Alice was different from Hazel in both appearance and character. Hazel inherited her looks from her mother, while Alice definitely looked more like her father. Alice had been labeled as the most beautiful woman in Dragon City. People were amazed by her charisma and her air of mysteriousness. In fact, most men were completely captivated by her bewitching smile.Her beauty relied on her estranged nature, which came with a frosty coldness. She looked like she could have come from a beautiful
Hatred burned in Leila's eyes as she glared at Hazel.She had been here for quite some time, hiding in a corner and observing Zac and the others.She wanted to come over, but she didn't have the courage. She couldn't bear the fact that he was married. Moreover, she was afraid that Zac might find out that it was her who leaked the information to Valery. If he knew, he would definitely cut her off from his life altogether. Zac was a person who was absolutely intolerant of cheating and betrayal.Hazel had a calm expression, and she knew exactly how to read the situation.Valery was a capable woman, and Leila herself was quite powerful. Should they decide to join forces against her, her chances of winning would be greatly diminished.She couldn't allow that to happen. She must win over Leila."You're probably wondering why he married me, right?" Hazel whispered when she saw that there was no one else in the dressing room."What do you want to say?" Leila
Zac stopped the car at the intersection and waited for the traffic light to turn green.He touched Hazel's head and said, "Don't worry about what happened to Valery's family."She shrugged and replied, "I'm just curious. How on earth did she die?""I heard that she was murdered by an addict, but I was still in America when it happened, so I don't know all the details about it," Zac said, understating what really happened. He started driving again.'An addict?' Thinking of this, Hazel snorted in her mind. In her opinion, somebody must have hired a murderer to kill the woman.The mistress had an in with Baron, and she had a son of his. So naturally, she was a threat to the status of Elizabeth and her son, and Elizabeth had to take a risk and get rid of her as soon as she could.Some people were perfectly capable of doing such a thing.The car turned at a corner, and Hazel immediately recognized that it wasn't the way to the mansion. "Where are we going
Florey's face was as dark as the overcast sky before a storm.Hazel had a bad feeling about this."Are you still thinking of seducing Hanson?" She paid no attention to the reporter next to her and asked Hazel directly.Dragon City was an international hub, and its paparazzi constituted one of the most powerful and craziest international organizations in the country. They had an unerring nose for finding gossip. People in Dragon City immensely enjoyed gossip, and entertainment magazines were the most popular and best-selling sources of such. These focused more on the entertainment circle, the rich families, and the social elites.As soon as Florey delivered her question, all of the reporters flocked around and boxed Hazel in."What's the relationship between you and Hanson?""Are you two dating right now?"Hazel slid an arm around Florey's waist and remarked, "Auntie, you're so naughty for sneaking out of the hospital. Did you forgetto take the m
Hanson had apparently left for America to visit his mother out of concern. However, he was surprised to find that she wasn't hospitalized at all and found her hiding at his uncle's home. He found out that the so-called heart disease was just a cover-up so that he would finally leave Hazel.He completely freaked out when he found out the truth. Hanson had never yelled at his mother before, and it was also the first time he disobeyed her. He rushed back to Yang City, completely mad and desperate to retrieve the love that he had forbidden.After searching all over Yang City, he couldn't find Hazel."Let's get married, Hazel," he said, while he knelt in front of her and brought out a pink heart-shaped diamond ring from his pocket. This ring was bought the moment he arrived back from America. He rushed to propose to her and take her back before she had the chance to get married with another man.Hazel was taken aback and a bleak expression appeared on her face. After
