“How could I accept such an expensive gift? I should return it to Hazel. Since it’s all just a misunderstanding, it’ll be fine once everything’s cleared up,” she said, trying to avoid the awkwardness. Agatha immediately grew anxious when she heard Delilah’s words. “Why wouldn’t you accept it? She did something wrong, and this is her way of apologizing. If you take it, it means you’ve forgiven her. She’d love for you to take it!” As she spoke, Agatha was practically eyeing the necklace, almost wanting to stuff it into her bag. Jamal couldn’t help but feel anger bubbling up as he saw his wife’s greedy behavior. He turned his head to face the window, clearly irritated. “Since Hazel has brought the gifts, you should just accept them. And the little necklace for the child—this is quite exquisite

Hazel waved her hand in front of his face, “What are you thinking? You’re so distracted. I asked if you wanted to try this snack. It’s really delicious.” “Sure, as long as it’s your recommendation, I’d love to try it,” Xander replied. The street, full of youthful energy, was especially crowded at that moment. Hazel and Xander waited in line for quite a while before finally getting their snacks. After just a couple of steps, Hazel began eating and getting in line for another round of snacks. Just as she was busy enjoying her food, someone suddenly squeezed up next to her and whispered in her ear. “Aren’t you the biological daughter of Jacob Queen and Novaria Dawn?” Hazel’s mind went blank for a moment. She quickly turned her head, only to see a young girl in a school uniform standing closest to her. But the voice that spoke was definitely from a middle-aged man. “What’s wrong? Did something happen?” Xander noticed Hazel's discomfort, glancing a

Sully also fell into deep thought. It had been so many years since Hazel’s parents passed away, and now only people with closer connections would bring up such a topic. Those people wouldn't approach Hazel in such a way, so the purpose behind this person’s actions really was hard to determine. Sully frowned, and her expression stiffened as she looked at Hazel. “You said there were so many people around you, all the noise and chatter, could it be that you really misheard?” Hazel also began to doubt herself. Could it really be a mistake? But the feeling at the time had been so vivid. “Forget it. If this person really has a purpose, they’ll definitely show up again,” she said. Sully nodded. “Then you should be careful for a while. Your villa is empty now, so how about I move in with you? It’s not safe for you to be alone.” Although she knew Hazel was capable, it still made her uneasy. After all, she was a woman living in such a large house alone. “I’m

Bailey initially just expressed her opinion, and the team leader patiently explained. “This isn’t a romance play. The female lead’s main task is to focus on her career, and the male lead’s presence would only hold her back, so they can’t end up together.” The script for this play was written by an experienced member of their team, but ultimately, everyone sat together to revise and approve it as a group. With Amber’s connections, Bailey had managed to secure the role of the female lead. However, convincing the entire team to follow her vision was no simple task. Teamwork was essential in this kind of project. Without her teammates supporting her, Bailey couldn’t pull off the lead role on her own. “Why can’t the female lead have it all? In the end, the boyfriend could just support her career, and that would be fine, right?” Bailey was always a fan of happy endings. Now that she was the lead, she naturally wanted the ending to unfold as she liked. Moreove

“How about I introduce you to a driver? You can have them drive you around whenever you go out, I really can’t feel at ease otherwise.” Damon, who had just sat down, still couldn't relax. After all, because of Agatha, Hazel had been in an accident before. And as soon as Hazel took the wheel and avoided the professional driver he hired, Damon’s concerns couldn’t be shaken off. “I don’t need it. Have you ordered yet? Let’s eat, I’m starving.” Not wanting to hear more of Damon’s nagging, Hazel quickly changed the subject. Damon handed her the menu. “Here, take a look. The items I’ve already ordered are marked. Let me know if you want anything else.” Damon had already ordered enough, and most of it was food that Hazel liked. She only ordered a glass of water for herself, then shifted the conversation to the hospital. “I’m really sorry about how my mom treated you in the hospital. It’s my fault, I should’ve explained things to her beforehand. After I ta

The shares had all returned to Hazel’s hands, and it was impossible for anyone to buy them back from the person they had sold them to. After learning about the situation at Queen Corp, Jonah went to Mr. Will, trying to offer a higher price to buy back all the shares he had previously sold. However, Mr. Will no longer held any shares in Queen Corp, so there was no way he could fulfill Jonah's request. But Mr. Will didn’t mention that he had sold the shares to Hazel. Instead, he flatly refused to sell. Now that Queen Corp’s prospects were looking up, any businessman would hesitate to sell shares they had worked so hard to acquire, especially at this moment. However, the fact that Mr. Will had transferred the shares to Hazel couldn’t be kept a secret. Eventually, Jonah found out. The reason Jonah had sold the shares to Mr. Will in the first place was to try and trick Hazel. Now, he hadn’t managed to deceive her, and instead, all the shares had ended up back in

Jonah cleared his throat, trying to make himself seem a little more authoritative. "Hazel, I came today to ask you something. How many shares of Queen Corp do you have now? Did you buy the shares that I sold to Mr. Will? How much did you pay for them?" "What shares? Uncle, are you saying you sold all your shares?" Hazel pretended to be surprised, covering her mouth. Her acting was worse than Bailey's, and it was all for Jonah’s benefit. However, Jonah couldn’t tell, and he thought Hazel genuinely didn’t know about it. "You don't know? That can't be right. Yesterday, your aunt guessed that you must have fifty percent of the shares by now." So it was Adele who had guessed it. No wonder—considering Jonah's intelligence, he could never have thought of that himself. "No, that's just a joke. How could I have that much money to buy back all those shares? You guys know how much assets I have, right?" When Hazel returned, Adele and Jonah had already in

At first, Chrissy hadn’t noticed, but now she realized just how skilled Gavin was at coming up with excuses.Even after all this, he was still trying to make excuses for himself.

Now that you’ve had your fun, why are you still struggling?

Chrissy had been blinded by Gavin, and now she couldn’t even see such a simple truth. “I brought them back to confront Gavin face to face, but I was worried you couldn’t handle it, so I thought we’d talk first. Since you’re so strong, let’s go upstairs and confront Gavin together.” Chrissy looked up at Damon, a hint of resistance in her eyes. She wasn’t strong at all, and she wasn’t ready to accept this so easily. It was all forced. She nodded and followed Damon upstairs with the three women. Chrissy was a relatively traditional girl, so in the Price family, her room was far away from Gavin’s. One was at the far end of the second floor corridor, and the other was at the opposite end. Gavin’s room was close to the stairs, and as soon as Damon reached the second floor, he could faintly hear some sounds coming from inside Gavin’s room.

The private room wasn’t small, but the table was relatively small, likely a special arrangement by the restaurant. After all, since the restaurant prioritized confidentiality, it needed to ensure that guests felt safe while dining there. The small table set up this way was designed so that guests wouldn’t feel like their private conversations could be overheard. "Hazel, I’ve already ordered the dishes in advance, all of them are your and Grandpa Omar’s favorites, and I’ve included some snacks that’s suitable for breakfast. I’ll have the server bring it in right away." After saying that, Damon pressed the button in front of him. Within a few seconds, the door opened, and a server entered, respectfully looking at Damon. "Mr. Price, may I serve the dishes?" Damon nodded slightly, and the server bowed and left the room. Soon, a series of dishes were brought into the room by a line of servers.

The organizers assured them that the same tickets would be honored for the rescheduled event.Calculating the time, it seemed like the lecture would be in two days.Hazel answered the phone, and Sheila’s loud voice immediately came through.“Hazel, are you okay?!
