"Of course. There's even a saying that says 'It takes a decade to stay in a ship together, and a century to..." She stopped her babbling just right before she said the words "to share a bed together" when she saw the look of gloom and disdain in Leila's eyes. The last second, she twisted her tongue and said, "To share a house," instead. She wanted to talk about the fate of their friendship, but the topic was clogged in her throat.

It would have been dangerous to talk of such things, and would probably start a fierce cat fight between her and Leila.

Zac had a blank expression throughout the event, but when he heard this, a subtle smile appeared on his face. The thought of him still being the only man who had been in the same bed as her, relieved a lot of the sadness he had been feeling the whole week.

When he realized he was slipping and acting strange, he quickly restrained his mouth and acted somewhat annoyed. There was a certain perplexity in that situat

    When Hazel heard this, she was left wide eyes and stunned. Before she could turn her head to see who spoke, Zac had already held her in his arms. He cast a cold glance at the three people in front of him. With eyes as sharp as a sword, it seemed like a single look from him could break them to pieces.His powerful aura was like an erupting volcano, frightening everyone within a mile from him. Vulnerable from all the insults, Hazel instinctively buried her head into his arms, as she had just found her savior. Her mind was completely blank, and there was nothing else she wanted to do but hide in his arms quietly.The moment Sunny saw Zac's face, she immediately hid behind Hanson, like a shivering mouse.After rounds of violent convulsion, Hanson could not take another second of it. All he longed for was to run to Hazel and take her back. If only they knew how much he hated himself for losing her.Florey was left stunned for a moment, and could not sp

    There was a giant three-layer cake on the table. The bright candlelight swayed in the wind, like the stars shining in the night sky."Happy birthday," a gentle voice said from behind.Today was her birthday? Shocked, Hazel looked at the calendar hanging on the wall. It was June 12th.'Oh my God! It really was my birthday,' thought she. She even forgot it herself, and she didn't expect that he would remember it!"Ice guy, how did you know that today is my birthday?" She turned around and looked at him. His cold face was tinted with the same color as the candlelight, making it look very warm. The smile on his face was as charming as sunshine. It made ripples in her heart."It is written on our marriage certificate," he said. Then he held her by the shoulder and took her to the table. "Make a wish!"She nodded, put her hands together, and closed her eyes.What was her wish?Over the past five years, she had made th

    Early in the morning, Hazel got up and packed her backpack.Zac leaned against the door frame and looked at her with a confused look on his face. "Where are you going?""Mandy and I are going to go to the coastline. We will camp out on the island tonight. I won't be coming home, so remember to lock the door.""Do you have everything with you?" Zac said, raising his eyebrows."Well, water jug, tent, compass... All done," Hazel said, telling him the list of stuff in her backpack."You must bring the cellphone with you. If I call you, you must answer it within five seconds," he ordered in a very dictator-like manner."What if I don't hear the phone ringing?" Hazel rolled her eyes at him."Vibration." He flicked her forehead. She was obviously a new hiker without any experience, so he was a little worried and he had to watch the whole process of the surveillance. "Remember, safety is the most important thing. If you can't ho

    The storm grew increasingly fierce and showed no signs of abating.Most of the coconut trees on the beach were uprooted. It looked like the end of the world was approaching. The terrible weather affected the air inside the cave.Zac groaned, a tinge of pain flashing across his eyes.Hazel anxiously watched his movements.Although she kicked with no great strength, Zac himself was at the most vulnerable state that a man could be in, even someone who was extremely heroic and strong as he was.Taking a deep breath and letting go of her, Zac sat up and said, "Honey, don't do that again, or you won't be happy in the future."Her face contorted in a slight frown. "If it ceases to function, you're going to use your brain, for sure, and you will never be fickle in love."His face took on a bitter, aggrieved smile. "Evidently, it recognizes only you. How could I be fickle?"Zac sounded like an affronted virgin. But in Ha

    On the way back, Hazel's excitement faded. She felt like she was breaking out in a cold sweat.Mandy told her that she had both good and bad news, but in Hazel's mind, she didn't hear any good news at all.'Oh my gosh. No, no, no. I'm so doomed!' Hazel realized she was holding her breath and found herself holding her face in frustration.She continued to have a monologue in her thoughts. 'Why did Hanson have to be one of the judges in this show? Why would I have to see him this way?And why does Sunny even have to be in the same competition as me?Her family is already so wealthy. She doesn't need this, so why did she have to join? Ugh, it's not going to be a competition anymore. It's decided, right? I guess this will be like a walk in the park for her.Hanson will obviously favor Sunny and give her the best scores while I'll try so hard and it might not even matter!' Hazel let out a heavy sigh. She felt exasperated at the though

    It was the most famous cocktail bar in Yang City.For the first challenge, each team had to select a cocktail and make a dress that could represent it for the party.Sunny had already asked the crew of the program to make Zoe be the first one to select the cocktail she had decided on beforehand. Zoe picked sunset glow as Sunny had told her.Hazel, on the other hand, asked Nicole to select a green refreshing cocktail that also had white and blue colors in it. This particular cocktail had a rich flavor.The crew of the program was supposed to give them 200 dollars, which meant that they had to use the cheapest cloth and accessories to maximize the effect.Hazel decided to go with a skirt that looked like the ocean. It was fresh and elegant, and it showcased Nicole's white skin very well. In addition to that, it also highlighted the flavor of the cocktail she had chosen.She drew up the sketch as fast as she could, and asked Nicole

    At eight o'clock sharp in the morning, the designers and stars arrived at the studio on time.The moment they entered the room, they were all dumbfounded.Hazel and Nicole immediately rushed towards the mannequin wearing the dress Hazel had made.Mortified, they saw that there were several holes at the hem of her dress."Who did this?" Beck, Nicole's assistant, shouted.The photographer immediately called everyone in the crew of the program over."Was it bitten by a mouse?" one of them muttered."It's more than one foot away from the ground. How could a mouse do it? Jump on it and bite? What's more, none of the others are ruined, just ours. I think someone must have felt threatened by how well we were doing, so he deliberately destroyed our dress! Don't you all agree?" Beck said unkindly.The director pointed angrily at several cameras on the wall. "When did you turn them off?""After everyone has left

    Enemies are bound to meet in a narrow alley. Sunny alone was a hurdle to deal with. And now, with Leila's arrival, things were bound to be harder. Hazel was consumed by fear.If Leila became an unfair judge, it could spoil Hazel's life.As expected, the points that Leila gave were very low, and she also pointed out a lot of shortcomings. Relentlessly, she accused Hazel of not following the theme. She also said her work lacked creativity and essence.'What the hell!' Hazel shouted in her mind. According to her, Leila was a petty person who had used personal issues in the professional sphere. It was quite a low blow. On top of that, Zac could be watching the show right now.'Aren't you afraid that he will see the ugliness inside you?' she wondered.The two judges who had been bought off by Sunny's family also took the chance to add insult to injury. As ordered by Sunny, one gave her a score of five and the other gave her six.Even

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.

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.

    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?"

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.
