The photos sent to her through email must have been taken during that ball.Even an eight year-old child could tell that he was an unfaithful lover."I see. So, he didn't behave well when I was away. How should I punish him tonight?" She stroked Holy's head and looked at Zac with a faint smile, but her eyes were cold."Punish him by having him kneel on the CPU all day and not allowing him to eat anything," Holy said with a gloating grin. Zac glared at him.This bloodthirsty little kid kicked him while he was down and tried to sow discord between him and Hazel!Zac reached out his big hand and frantically rubbed his little head.Holy made a funny face to him, bowed his head, and took a bite of the muffin. Unexpectedly, he said, "Sister Hazel, Brother Zac has a first love. Do you have a first love?"After the smallest of pauses, Hazel replied, "Yes, I do." Hazel nodded her head deliberately and took a sideways glance at Zac. His handsome face suddenly became cloudy, and the little devil
After sending Holy back home, Zac felt like he needed to explain himself a little bit more about what happened at the ball that day. He was sure that Hazel was convinced with Holy's words and would punish him mercilessly, or maybe even get him sentenced to death.He would die even more severely and miserably than a convict in the Guantanamo Bay Detention Camp."That night at the ball, Leila and I only attended as friends. There's nothing more to that," Zac said defensively.Hazel contemptuously sneered deep inside.'Friend?I think you mean your girlfriend!' she thought aggressively."There's no need for you to explain. I don't care about those things. I'm just here to accomplish a goal," she responded with a cold expression that was filled with an ominous hollowness."I know." On his face appeared a wry and wounded smile. Zac realized that Hazel didn't care for him at all. Her heart was set on Hanson. Hazel was only by his side because he didn't want to let her go, and forced her to
Since their chances of being together was close to impossible, her only hope was that he could find a woman who could truly love him and make him happy.While lost in thought, she suddenly heard Ivy's voice ringing in the room. Ivy asked with a mopey face, "Daisy, which one of us is more beautiful in your eyes? Me and Christina?""Both of you are beautiful in different ways," Daisy answered as she scratched her head.When Ivy heard this, she wrinkled her nose and thought, 'What kind of answer is that.'She tried to look for several photos of Christina from her phone. After a few moments, she displayed them in front of Hazel's face and said, "Sister-in-law, you're Hanson's junior classmate, so you should know what kind of girls he's into. Can you take a look at her photo and try to see which one of us Hanson would prefer?"Just right when Ivy finished her words, Valery's voice could suddenly be heard as she walked down the stairs. "You're definitely asking the right person. Of course o
"Mommy," Valery said, while her eyes almost popped out of its lid in anger. She turned around and her gaze met with Mary's. Mary nearly cried seeing Valery's condition. Her life was on the precipice. 'How I wish I could make things better for the little child,' Mary thought forlornly."Zac, you aren't officially married to Valery. You may refuse to agree she is your wife legally. But you had sex with her and now she is pregnant with your child. This makes it your responsibility to look after her! I won't let you escape it!" Mary's voice had an edge to it. She was extremely mad at her son's behavior."Mommy, let me be clear, you can't expect me to live with two women at the same time. That is ludicrous! Valery is quite young. In the future, she can pursue the person that makes her happy. I don't see why she should waste her youth under our clutches," Zac said in a cold and resolute tone.With tears streaming down her face, Valery said, "You're my happiness. You're the person I wish to
With a hint of slyness on her face, Hazel added, "If I divorce you, will you really not marry again?" Even though her heart was thudding against her chest in anticipation of his answer, she tried to look composed."The word 'second marriage' doesn't exist in my dictionary. The best I can do is make sure you won't leave me. Or else this man will be all alone." He suddenly pursed the corners of his mouth and his expression became extremely serious.Her heart skipped a beat. 'Isn't he afraid I would be with him like a headache forever?' she wondered."Be careful with your words, Zac. You may regret it in the future. You will meet a lot of women and might fall for one of them." She passed him a challenging look. People like him would have a line of girls even in his seventies or eighties. It was impossible to expect his admiration forever. Besides, his relationship with Leila had been strong. He could think about her and get back with her. Perhaps one day, the elders of the two families w
He was annoyed beyond all measures at seeing her. Why did he even put her pictures on the desk? Was he masochistic?She puckered her lips. Her beautiful face turned red. The calm of her face was disturbed as if a stone had fallen in a quiet lake, causing splashes and ripples.She turned the frame down and put it where it was. Heaving an exhausted sigh, she sat on the boss's chair, swiveling around and recalling everything that had happened in Yang City.She had had such a good time there because of him. All the scars that past love had left on her had been healed.It might be him who had made Sunny dance to 'Little Apple' in the square. Who else could make the daughter of the Yang family do that?She really didn't know what he was thinking.He thought she was stupid and pudding-headed, yet he forced her to stay with him...all so he could keep feeding her sugar-coated bullets.His heart ached at the very sight of her and still he had put her photos where he could see them all day long.
'Little pineapple?' Hazel thought to herself. Who was this guy?"You are...?" she spoke awkwardly at last."Big coconut! The big coconut from Maldives!" Walt said.Hazel's eyes widened and her mouth fell open as she suddenly recalled who he was. When she was a freshman, Hazel had gone to Maldives to look for Hanson, but he was in Europe. She never ended up meeting him but stayed there alone for a couple of days. One of those days, she had met a handsome man on the beach. On a whim, she had made a painting of him, looking at him from a distance. Unexpectedly, he had found out. This was how they'd first met. Hazel hung out with him for that night and the entirety of the next day. Because she was alone and didn't know him well, she never told him her name. She just asked him to call her 'little pineapple'. And he asked her to call him 'big coconut'."Oh my god! I didn't expect to meet you here, big coconut!" She smiled wholeheartedly."Me neither! I haven't seen you for so many years! Y
"So... the reason why you don't want to marry my sister is because of her," Vinton said with a rather gloomy expression on his face. Since he came back, he had heard nothing but his mother, full of righteous indignation, ceaselessly complaining about something Valery was involved in. Truth be told, his ears had started to hurt, so he had been escaping the house in the last couple of days to play golf and to give his ears a break.Of course, he himself was hoping that Valery could marry into a wealthy family, as that would benefit him in his fight against Alice for the family successor role. But if Zac was unwilling to marry his sister, why did he knock her up? Was Valery's position as a daughter of the Xu family too humble for him?"If you were in my shoes, who would you pick: her or your sister?" Zac asked slowly. As a typical man, Vinton was not sophisticated in his tastes, but he did adore women and he had no problems saying what he thought.Vinton was silent for a moment. If it we
