As the voice rang out, a crowd of people quickly gathered, all armed with cameras, their flashes blindingly illuminating Bailey and Adele.

They quickly stood up and moved toward the roadside, but anyone attempting to block their path was swiftly pushed aside by Adele.

When they were still some distance from the car, Amber arrived.

Without saying a word, she squeezed through the crowd and pulled them straight into the car.

The paparazzi recognized Amber, the famous top agent, and the crowd buzzed with excitement.

Thankfully, they knew Amber’s reputation, and when it came to dealing with overly aggressive paparazzi, she wasn’t one to hold back.

So, once they reached the car, the crowd didn’t dare pursue them further.

Inside the car, Amber was driving, while Adele and Bailey sat in the back seat, both feeling a little guilty.

After the car entered the city, Amber finally spoke, “If anything like today happens again, we’ll terminat

  • Sorry Ex, This Queen Is No Longer Yours   Discussion With Elders

    Damon’s advice was clear, but the financial approach toward Jonah’s family was far from enough. No matter what, Jonah understood that he was part of the Queen family and naturally held onto some shares of the corporation. He was also more aware than the other shareholders of the ties between Hazel and the Price and Cohen families, knowing these families wouldn’t let things slide. Because of this, the shares in his hands would not be sold under any circumstances. But if Hazel followed Damon’s plan, it might prompt other shareholders to sell their shares as well. The problem was, she no longer had enough liquid funds to buy back those large shares. If those shares flooded the market, it wouldn’t be good for Queen Corp. It was better for the current shareholders to hold onto their shares for now. Sully walked over with some documents and handed them to Hazel. “Hazel, this needs your signature.” Noticing that Hazel wasn’t reacting, Sully waved the documents

    Hazel thought carefully. It made sense. If, at this critical moment, she suddenly had a falling out with both the Cohen and Prices, that would indeed seem suspicious. After all, Jonah wasn't exactly a fool. "That’s true. You can have conflicts with Damon, since you two already have a special relationship. But the more critical this moment is, the less you should have any issues with Omar." Grandpa Mark also agreed and quickly suggested a practical solution. "How about this: You start with a public argument with Damon. He then makes a strong statement online, saying that he won't invest in your company. After that, arrange for a journalist to ask Grandpa Omar about the situation. Grandpa Omar should first express that he won't be investing in Queen Corp either, but then reassure everyone that he still really likes you, his granddaughter." This way, it wouldn't seem out of place at all. Hazel nodded, agreeing with the plan, and then contacted Damon to discuss

    Mr. Will turned to look at Adele seriously. "Are you telling the truth?" As soon as Adele heard Mr. Will's question, she knew this deal could go through. She patted the table lightly and then placed her hand on Mr. Will's shoulder. "Jonah is Hazel's uncle, and I’m her aunt. Although we've had our disagreements, blood ties are not something you can sever just like that." Seeing his wife touching Mr. Will, Jonah’s smile immediately faded. He stood up, moved to the other side of Mr. Will, and slapped Adele's hand away, then put his arm around Mr. Will's shoulder. "Even if Hazel and I aren't close, we do have people around us who are close to her. If you don’t believe it, feel free to investigate their relationship." As Jonah spoke, he shot a look at Adele, who immediately understood. Although she felt uncomfortable, not wanting to escalate the situation, she moved away from Mr. Will. "Since you two are so confident, I’ll look into it. If I find out th

    Queen Corp was on the brink of collapse. Even though Hazel was capable, she no longer had the power to turn things around. If they didn’t act now, they’d be stuck with worthless shares and nowhere to turn. "Mr. Will, he has a bad temper, so don't take it personally. But this price really is too low. How about you consider adding a little more?" Mr. Will remained silent, his expression dark. Jonah had a bad temper, but Mr. Will had an even worse one. If he hadn’t made a promise to Damon, he wouldn’t have given someone like Jonah a single chance. It was only because of Adele’s good sense that he even entertained this partnership. No wonder they said Jonah was henpecked. With his personality, if Adele didn’t manage things, he probably would have squandered the family’s fortune by now. Seeing Mr. Will remain silent, Adele quickly added, "Let’s do this—forget the previous price we discussed. We’ll go with the market price you mentioned, five million per unit. We

    Jamal quickly helped Agatha to get checked, while outside the operating room, Mark sat, his face full of worry. Damon, on the other hand, paced back and forth in front of the operating room, occasionally glancing at the door, anxious to know when the doctors and nurses would come out. A nurse passing by couldn’t help but gossip. “Miss Hasani is really lucky. Even though she has such a bad temper, she found such a good husband in Mr. Damon.” “What’s so good about it? Haven’t you seen the news recently? The reason Miss Hasani had the premature labor was because Mr. Damon was still entangled with his ex-wife.” “Really? I can’t believe it! I mean, look at how worried he looks right now. It doesn’t seem like he’s faking it. Have you seen how some husbands just sit outside playing games while their wives are in labor? Mr. Damon is already doing much better than that.” “True, for families like theirs, the heir is really important. He’s not worried about Miss H

    “Mom! Hazel just came to check on Delilah and brought gifts, stop causing a scene,” Damon tried to calm his mother down. Hazel didn’t want to attract too much attention and immediately tried to leave through another exit. But Agatha wouldn’t let her go, pulling Damon’s hand away and charging at her. “Hazel Queen, you slut! Can’t you stay away from my married son? How shameless can you be!” Agatha yelled. Hazel was dressed in a simple white wool coat, and her natural elegance had already caught the attention of several people. Now, with Agatha making such a scene, more people started looking in their direction. Damon and Jamal both tried to pull Agatha away, but they couldn’t stop her from grabbing hold of Hazel’s coat. “Let go!” Hazel shouted angrily, and everyone around them froze, including Agatha. However, just two seconds later, Agatha’s insults grew louder, causing several nurses to rush over, concerned about the commotion. “Mom, you wanted to

    Delilah had also noticed the necklace, but seeing Agatha clutching it and unwilling to let go, she realized the necklace was likely never going to make it into her hands. “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

    "How about this," said Adam, "I'll help you this time, and in the future, if I need anything for work, you'll be the first one I call." Hazel froze for a moment. Adam was referring to work-related matters, which on the surface seemed harmless, but something about his words made her uneasy. Maybe it was the fact that he hadn’t explicitly mentioned what kind of help he would need, which left her feeling a bit anxious. "Don’t worry, it won’t negatively affect your company. We’re just making a verbal agreement. If it ever goes against your principles, you can always refuse," he added with a reassuring smile. Hazel relaxed, the tension in her chest finally easing. She was a person of integrity, and the thought of breaking her word never crossed her mind. Only after Adam pointed it out did she realize the possibility of not following through on an agreement, though she had never considered it before. "Since you've said that, I have no further concerns. If there's ever

    However, after hearing what the manager had just said, Hazel began to feel that she shouldn’t approach Adam first. Instead, she should check with Ariana to see what she thought.Considering Ariana’s personality, even if Adam agreed, Ariana might not.“Mr. Fleur, you’re here. Please sit down. Let me know what you’d like to eat. I haven’t ordered yet.”Hazel placed the pre-prepared menu in front of Adam.After this incident, she finally understood what Omar had meant when he said it wasn’t a bad idea to know more people.At least now, when she reached out to these people, it didn’t feel awkward. They had already met before and had some prior contact.The waiter came in after them, and after Adam ordered two dishes, he handed the menu back to Hazel. Hazel added two more dishes, then signaled the waiter to leave.“Is there something you needed to say at this hour, Mr. Queen? Something urgent?”Adam let out a light snort, feeling a

    Seeing Xander was also present, Hazel steadied her emotions. "Nothing much, just ran into some uncomfortable situations while having dinner, so I came back early. What are you two discussing?" Noticing that Hazel didn’t want to bring up what had just happened, Xander quickly shifted the topic, concerned that Sully would continue asking. "We’re about to launch our brand, so we’re thinking about finding a spokesperson. We still haven’t decided who to choose." They were in the clothing business, both men’s and women’s wear, but their focus was primarily on women’s clothing, so the spokesperson would be a woman. They were also looking to hire two or three celebrities for advertisements, both male and female. It was still in the planning stages, but they could delay the advertising a bit. The spokesperson, however, couldn’t be delayed much longer, since there was quite a bit of preparation involved for the spokesperson's role. Considering their planned launc

    Hazel was naturally very familiar with the ringtone. Her expression changed instantly, realizing that Damon had been monitoring her all the way here.Seeing the look on Hazel’s face, Charles couldn’t help but feel a sense of satisfaction."This ringtone... it can’t be President Price’s, can it? He’s here too?" As he spoke, Charles directed his gaze at Carlos.Carlos took a deep breath, thinking to himself, It’s over. Completely over.

    "What are they talking about so happily? Hazel is even smiling at that Charles?" Damon gritted his teeth, almost wanting to march over and pull Hazel away, but he couldn’t do that. If he showed up in front of Hazel again, she would definitely think he was spying on her. From her reaction last time, it was clear that she really didn’t like being watched. No, nobody likes being watched. "How about you pretend to bump into them and say hi? You guys aren't strangers, it’s normal to greet each other if you run into each other. It’s just like how I bumped into them." Carlos didn’t know about the incident between Damon and Hazel last time, but his suggestion made Damon realize that there was now someone else present, besides himself. When he turned back to look at Carlos, a glint of understanding flashed in his eyes. Before he could speak, Carlos already understood his meaning. Initially intending to refuse, he thought about it and decided against it. Damon’s

    No matter what, Queen Corp's future path will only get smoother. At this point, when Queen Corp is still not at its peak, collaborating well with them will only benefit the Whitmans, with no drawbacks. Not only that, but Charles also had some personal motives toward Hazel. At first, he just wanted to oppose Damon, which is why he wanted to get close to Hazel. But for some reason, the more he got to know her, the more he found himself drawn to her, unable to pull away. When he thought about it, if he could marry Hazel, it would be great. Both of them were workaholics, and their two companies could have even deeper cooperation. Once the Whitman and Queen families merged, they could become the most powerful group in Vernon, and even the Price family would be nothing compared to them. But these were just thoughts for now. No matter what, Charles could at least try. Whether it worked out or not didn’t matter—what mattered was that he had tried. "For suc

    In the Price Corp building, Kin was reporting to Damon about Delilah’s situation. Since she was already in prison, it was only natural for Kin to make some arrangements. Moreover, Kin had recently uncovered some of Delilah’s past secrets, which made dealing with her even easier. "I’ve taken care of things at the prison, but Delilah keeps shouting, insisting that she wants to see you once. Should we let her?" They already knew most of what needed to be known, and now Delilah wanted to see Damon. It seemed that she regretted telling him everything earlier. If she still had anything Damon didn’t know about, she wouldn’t just be asking to see him. She would have tried to use her secrets to lure him in. Deep down, she must know that Damon would never just visit her for no reason. "Is that all she said, just wanting to see me?" Kin shook his head. "She didn’t say anything else.

    Of course, Jonah could tell what was going on. After all, Mr. Moore had always looked down on him, and that wasn’t a secret; many of the company’s employees knew it. Whenever Jonah gave orders, the employees had to check with Mr. Moore first before deciding whether to carry them out. It was clear that they had sidelined him. If it weren’t for Adam confirming Jonah’s position as the CEO, those employees would probably be giving him the cold shoulder. "Mr. Moore, I know you look down on me, but don’t say I didn’t warn you. No matter how much you despise me, this position will never be yours." "Since Adam Fleur trusts you so much, you should know what kind of deal I made with him. Even if he hands over all the power to you, so what? I still get paid as the CEO. I don’t have to do anything, but I still get a nice paycheck. That works just fine for me."
