"You can sleep on my bed," Hazel stated. His lips twitched. "Okay." Zac walked towards the bed and proceeded to lie down. When he reached out his arms to hold her slim waist, she tried her best to shrug him off. "Let me go. I'll sleep on the sofa," she snapped. 'There's no way in hell that we'll be sleeping on the same bed!' she thought. Hazel struggled under his arms, but it only encouraged him to pin her down even more. "I'm cold. Isn't it your duty to warm me up?" "You can tuck yourself in if you feel cold!" She kicked the quilt towards him angrily. If she didn't ask him for help in the first place, then she would've taken the opportunity to kick him where the sun doesn't shine! "Well, you're warmer than the quilt." He placed his chin on her shoulder wantonly, breathing in her heavenly fragrance. There was something about her that made him addicted to her scent. Of course, this didn't mean that he cared for her. He had always been indifferent to these
At that moment, Hazel took it upon herself to bargain with the venders by the roadside. "Sir, it's already noon and look at your vegetables. The leaves are turning yellow and the stems are withering. If you don't sell it at 1.5 per kilogram, no one would buy it. Besides, the governor has already sent his men to patrol around the streets," she urged with her arms crossed. Back then, Hazel was used to bargaining for her ingredients in the wet market, so this came naturally for her. Hearing her latter words, the street vendor sighed. "Fine. Deal." Hazel grinned, displaying two dimples on the sides of her cheeks. Zac resisted the urge to snort. He didn't expect her to be so stingy that she actually put some effort in convincing the man to cut the price in half, but he liked a woman who valued her money. As long as she was willing to cooperate with him, he would definitely give her a considerable compensation for her time with him. Hazel picked up three kilograms and gave
"I'm Mandy, do you remember me? Six years ago, during the trip to the Himalayas, my traveling companions and I came across some difficulty. It was you who saved us." It was not until then that Zac realized what she was referring to. Yet, this compliment didn't make him look proud. He continued to have an indifferent expression on his face. Shrugging his shoulder, he let go of the matter. However, hearing this, Hazel walked over and patted him on the shoulder. With a playful look on her face, she said, "I wasn't aware you had gone to the Himalayas. It sounds amazing!" Mandy had repeated this story a million times in the past. It was something she enjoyed narrating every now and then. They had also named this story as the independent hero climbing the mountains and rivers. The way he had hit eight gangsters all by himself was the part she told with a relish. Zac gently pinched the tip of her chin. "There are still a lot of things you don't know." Looking at them, M
Hazel waved her hand again. Although Zac was unpredictable, he was certainly not a bad person. When it came to sex, they benefited from each other. But when it came to money... "He gave his credit card to me. Only I can rob him. He can't rob me," Hazel said with a smile. "What?" Mandy and Eva exclaimed at the same time. "You are just roommates. Why did he give you his credit card?" Mandy frowned. "It looks like he is interested in our Hazel," Eva said with a laugh. Hazel hastily waved her hand and said, "You've got the wrong idea. When we dine in the same restaurant, we pay fifty-fifty. But since I'm buying all the food from the market now, of course he has to pay me. Also, his card's monthly limit is only 3,000, so he won't lose much even if I use all of it up." "It's awesome that he gave you the card! There is no other handsome guy like him! Just let him be your boyfriend." Eva snickered. Mandy rolled her eyes at Hazel, feeling very depressed. He was he
She thought about it for a while and then sent a message saying, "Zac, I won't cook tonight. Please arrive at Petrus Restaurant for a French dinner. See you at sharp eight o'clock. PS: If you stand me up, I am going to burn you alive." While reading this message, Zac was in the cottage by the bay with his subordinate, William. A smile made its way to his face as soon as he read Hazel's text. It was an unnoticeable one yet William caught it since he knew his boss very well. Moreover, his boss seemed to be in high spirits lately. There was a new cheerfulness about him. He couldn't help but come to the conclusion that Hazel had a part in it. He was also stunned to see this change in his boss. No other girl had managed to placate Zac since he was indifferent to their feelings. Even the most beautiful women had no power over him. As the only person who knew the whereabouts of Zac, he also knew about this absurd marriage. That day, Zac was drunk and went back to get his id
"What are you doing?" Sunny was furious as she rushed over to the pair. She looked like a dragon who was about to spit fire. Hanson let go of the woman in his arms. Although he was startled, he didn't look the slightest bit guilty. He knew for a fact that Sunny had always been obsessed with him. In fact, she was the one who had brought up the wedding. "Why are you here?" "How could I not?" she snapped. A part of her wished that she could tear Hazel down with her own bare hands. Having no intention to argue with Sunny, Hazel turned. "I'm going in." However, just as she was about to leave, Sunny caught her wrist. Turning her around, she slapped the woman hard on the face. There was no way she was going to let the woman go! Especially after trying to seduce her husband! Sunny clenched her jaw as malicious thoughts filled her mind. In the black Bentley, Zac glowered. His fists cracked at the sight, tearing through the dull silence in the car. Although Hazel deser
Hazel didn't quite understand what he meant. She shrugged. "I remember. I can still introduce a girlfriend for you." Zac gritted his teeth. If only she could feel how worked up he was in trying to drill what he wanted to say in her mind. He lifted her chin with one of his hands, deciding to cut to the chase. "During our marriage, I suggest you don't see any other man. He could be your first boyfriend. Hell, he could be your dream lover, but you better get them out of your mind and never speak to them again." His words were harsh, slicing through the tension between them. What he really wanted was to wipe her mind off Hanson. He moved closer. Even if she was his fake wife, as long as the license was still registered, then he wouldn't let her see another man. He lowered his lips against hers. She stiffened under his touch. Hazel didn't even know what he meant. It wasn't as if she was having an affair...all he caught her doing was that the men were trying to rape her, b
"Zac, how do you feel about going to the seaside today?" Hazel said as she sat at the corner of his bed. He squinted at her. "Is this Mandy's idea? Are you really planning to use the same old trick towards me?" He was not going to fall for her tricks this time. In fact, he had grown more vigilant to all Hazel's suggestions. "It's my idea," she protested. "My business has been doing well these past two months. In fact, I've received lots of orders. Plus, it's such a rare chance for Mandy to take a day off. She has a car too, so how about we go out and have some fun?" Hazel plastered a smile on her face. She had worked hard earning all that money, she was not planning to let it all go to waste just because she couldn't help her friend get her dream man. Zac leaned back on the chair. "I don't want to go. You can go by yourselves." He waved his hand dismissively. "I would rather have some quiet time." Hazel rolled her eyes. "I'm pretty enough to attract different sor
Hazel clutched the lipstick gun and was ready to attack.Just when the tall and thin man was one meter away from them, a loud bang was heard. His left eye was bleeding immediately. 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
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. "The more Vinton heard, the more he thought that Essie's words made

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?" Zac gazed at her with sharp eyes."Malcolm will check on it." She lowered her voice, lack of confidence. She had been under
"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
