2024-10-29 19:42:56It was already three o'clock in the morning. Soon, it would be dawn and light would crack through her window.
But Hazel couldn't sleep. She tossed and turned in bed, unable to put either her mind or body to rest.Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Rain was pouring heavily outside. 'The weather matches my current mood,' she thought with some annoyance.Her heart ached every second. Something in it expanded, consuming her completely. Nothing she did would reduce the ache.Her imagination started to run wild. She could vividly imagine Zac with his beloved woman, cozily wrapped in his arms.Damn it, why did she always have to think about him!She cursed her thoughts for always running back to him. He was allowed to love whoever he wanted. And what he did with his lover was none of her business. She had no right to dwell on his thoughts.After taking a deep breath, she forced herself to think about Hanson. After all, todaRelated chapters

The day Mandy came back from France, she immediately called out for Hazel.When Mandy found out that Zac's ex-lover was coming back to town, she was overwhelmed by a state of panic, so she immediately instructed her close friend to act as a third wheel during the jewelry exhibition. She had asked Hazel to secretly engage in destruction, so that she could be together with Zac.Hazel almost fainted when Mandy came up to ask her. She was just a hostess to Zac. Why did she have to turn herself into a bitch?She knew that she should have declined, but Mandy had threatened their relationship and forced her to promise. With her persistence, Hazel just couldn't find it in herself to refuse.Hazel had chosen a bright yellow ancient style dress to wear for the jewelry exhibition. Her black curly hair was simply tossed to her back, with light make-up applied to her face. Her appearance was fresh and refined with a green tea flavor, which was appropriate as t

"Our families have a history of conflict and opposed the relationship between the two of us. Otherwise, we would have been married." Leila truly believed that her relationship with Zac wasn't able to develop further because of the dispute between the two families.Mandy sneered, "If you truly loved each other, you could overcome any obstacle. I'm afraid to say but I think he simply didn't love you enough.""Do you know who else has the freedom..." Leila stopped before she could finish her words when she realized a secret almost slipped her mouth. Zac had made her promise never to expose his true identity.Besides, if they found out that he was actually from a rich and famous family, all the girls would do anything they could to take him away from her.Hazel watched them with a sympathetic look in her eyes. From Leila's statements, she concluded that Zac was disliked by her family because of his poor background. Therefore, they couldn't have a soli

Hazel was slightly taken aback upon seeing Leila. She nodded politely to her and was about to go on her way when the other woman shot out a hand to detain her. Leila said, "I heard what you said just now."Hazel faced her. "Leila, don't you think it's beneath your dignity to eavesdrop on others' conversation?""I just want to know if your boyfriend whom she was referring to was Zac." Leila was not the sort of person to beat around the bush, so she directly confronted Hazel.Leila's words made Hazel's insides quiver like a plucked string. As expected, people in love were so sensitive that they did not need any names mentioned to easily guess the relationship between them. If she said yes, would that ice guy be angry and blame her for causing a misunderstanding and sabotaging his relationship with Leila?They had been apart for too long, and it was not easy for them to reunite. He definitely wanted to maintain their relationship. Hazel, as the unnec

Hazel didn't really want to talk to Leila, but with Mandy sitting next to her, she just had to explain. "The truth is, I don't really have a boyfriend. I just had a friend pretend to be my boyfriend for their engagement ceremony." She said this casually while looking straight into Leila's eyes. "Are you satisfied now, Miss Leila?"Leila pouted and stared at her blankly for a moment. She wanted to say something to get under her skin, but her words had rendered her speechless.The situation had made Mandy feel sympathetic towards her friend, so she put her arms around her shoulder to hug her. As her best friend, she could easily sense what she was trying to do."Your friend seems to have a particular curiosity about me," said Hazel, as she took a sip from her glass of wine and turned her gaze towards Zac."Curiosity kills the cat," he said. Despite saying this in a light, jokingly way, Leila could tell that what he meant was much serious than it app

At the sight of the newcomer, the smile on Hanson's face froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. "Mom! What are you doing here?""My son is injured. Can't I come to see him?" Florey rolled her eyes at him."Auntie, please sit down." Hazel stepped forward and brought her a chair. She knew Hanson's mother very well. She had met her when she was still in school, and they had met several times when she was still in Bella. Every time, Hazel was under the impression that Hanson's mother disliked her.At that moment, Florey sent an indifferent glance her way. Then, she walked to the sofa by the bed and sat down. "Hanson, where is your nurse? Why isn't she here looking after you?""I asked her to leave. Chris will find a new one in the afternoon to replace her," Hanson said with his teeth gritted.Florey evidently thought that the nurse was doing a poor job of taking care of Hanson, but she didn't say anything. Her eyes drifted tow

At Yang City International Airport...Sunny stood at the gate, suitcase in hand.A complacent smile flashed across Sunny's face. Hazel would never think that she would escape this way. She wanted her to square dance to Little Apple? Dream on!An inferior creature such as her, without influence, money, or background, was like a bug she could easily crush under her heel.Sunny smoothed down her high-fashion Chanel dress and stepped forward to register. Suddenly, a large hand landed on her shoulder.She turned around and saw a devilishly handsome man in black standing behind her. His face was expressionless save for that hint of a ruthless smile on his lips.Her scream got stuck in her throat. She was so frightened that she could not speak a word.*The whole day, Hazel felt a little bored.She did not go to the hospital to visit Hanson. Instead, she spent the whole day bending over her desk, and her disca

Hazel nodded aimlessly as if she was in deep thought.Zac furrowed his brows and asked, "Can he compete with me?""Well, he was the champion of our university's street dance competition, so you know, he's a dance king," Hazel affirmed in a mocking tone. Still dancing and swaying, she turned her back on Zac.'Where's he getting this much confidence? How narcissistic!' she sniffed at him.A hint of disgust was written on his face. 'Champion at your university? I was the top dancer back in Harvard—a champion in the US!' "From now on, I'll be your only partner." He asserted in an intimidating tone as if trying to express his ownership over Hazel."Why? I'm not your only partner anyway…" Her bright eyes suddenly turned gloomy when she realized what she had said. She knew his real companion was Leila—the one person he would dance and watch movies with, along with all kinds of things a couple would do together. 'Leila is the only one in your hea

It was late at night. The big trees outside the window faded into dim shadows in the moonlight.Zac had come home earlier than usual.Instead of turning on the lights, he simply stood in front of the window without saying a word.The windows were wide open. It was not only moonlight that burst into the living room, but also a chilly gust of wind."Zac, you're home," Hazel said in a low voice.Zac didn't respond to her words, nor did he move. It seemed as if he didn't hear her words at all. The curtains fluttered in thewind, making Zac's tall body look like a dark silhouette.Hazel slowly approached Zac. It was not until she smelled a light whisky scent coming from him that she noticed the glass of whisky in his hand.'He's drinking alcohol?' Hazel thought to herself.Thinking of how she saw Leila having dinner all alone in the restaurant in the afternoon, Hazel guessed that they might have quarreled wi

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
Enthralled By Love What A Disappointment
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.

Enthralled By Love Mom's Ambition
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
Enthralled By Love You Win This Time
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
Enthralled By Love The Mad Woman Was Out
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
Enthralled By Love He Was Really Angry
"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
