Hazel Dunlop

I got up very early, anticipating what Jacob told me in the evening before he teased me and left. I made a mental note to get him back for what he did to me. I went to Zion's room and see him sleeping peacefully, I remembered the way I scolded him last night and I immediately regretted it. Since I woke up very early I let him sleep for a little while I made breakfast.

While I was making breakfast, Zion woke up and came to the kitchen staring at me. I turned around and noticed that he had woken up

"Zion honey, Good morning" I said and he gave me the 'you know what you did' look

I dropped the spoon I was holding and walked over to him. I knelt down to reach his height, so that he couldn't have to look up at me

"I know you are angry at mommy" I said

"Really, you noticed? How could you tell" he said, trying to be sarcastic and I held myself from laughing

I said, not seeing what relevance that question had in the discussion at hand"Well, welcome to the world of business, Hazel," Jacob chuckled, his tone light despite the gravity of their situation. "You'll come to learn that setbacks are just part of the game. What matters is how we bounce back from them" he said looking at me "I didn't put all my hopes on this company to strike a deal, anything can happen just as we just saw, so I met a company that is really you rent just as a backup"I literally had all my hopes up after Jacob told me about h

Was it really jealousy flickering in his eyes, or was I simply reading too much into it? Regardless, the idea of making him uncomfortable intrigued me. After all, why should he escape the discomfort of seeing me with someone else when he had rejected me years ago? On second thoughts, I mean who couldn't be slightly uncomfortable seeing their ex with somebody else. If that was true, then I was going to make him feel or the discomfort there is to feel in the world.The kids wished us a goodnight and went up to their room and with a mischievous determination ,I wrapped my hands around Jacob's neck and started whispering suggestive words to him while maintaining eye contact with Dunlop.

We discussed terms and explored potential partnerships, and they said they would think about it and get back to usAs the meeting drew to a close, I thanked the investors for their time and promised to follow up with them soon.

    Hazel WestThe ballroom was alive with excitement, laughter echoing off the walls, and glasses clinking in celebration. I stood near the entrance, taking in the sea of familiar faces, all dressed in their finest and gathered to celebrate with us. I still couldn’t fully believe it—our wedding day, the day I officially became Mrs. West.Across the room, Dunlop caught my eye. He looked striking in his tuxedo, his hair perfectly styled, and that familiar, irresistible smile tugging at his lips. My heart did a little dance just watching him. After everything—the arguments, the breakups, the makeups, and every crazy turn in between—it all led us here. He was laughing with a group of friends, but his eyes kept drifting back to me, a soft look of reassurance and love in his gaze, like he was still making sure I was really there, that this was really happening.A waiter passed by, balancing a tray of champagne, and I grabbed a glass, taking a sip to steady my nerves. It was such a strange but

    Hazel West I had moved back in with Dunlop and the kids joy knew no bounds “Hey boy” I called out to William and Zion. It was time tell Zion that Dunlop was his real father and Dunlop was nervous and elated all at the same time I could feel the tension in the air as we gathered in the living room. Dunlop paced back and forth, his hands running through his hair, while I tried to stay calm, sitting on the couch with William and Zion beside me. Both boys were excited, oblivious to the weight of the moment. “Mom, what’s going on?” Zion asked, looking up at me with those wide, curious eyes that always made my heart melt. “Yeah, what’s the big surprise?” William chimed in, bouncing on the balls of his feet, unable to contain his energy. I took a deep breath, reaching for Zion’s hand, and Dunlop finally stopped pacing, coming to stand in front of us. He knelt down, so he was at eye level with the boys, his expression softening as he looked at Zion. “There’s something important we n

    He followed me seconds later, his body shuddering as he came, collapsing on top of me, both of us panting, drenched in sweat and rainwater. For a long moment, we just lay there, tangled in each other, the sound of our breathing the only thing breaking the silence. Finally, he rolled off me, pulling me into his arms, holding me close. “I’m so sorry, Hazel,” he whispered, his voice thick with emotion. “I didn't know Camilla was going to try to drug me, I would have been more cautious. I'm sorry you had to see us like that” I rested my head on his chest, listening to the steady beat of his heart, the sound soothing, comforting. “I know,” I whispered back. “We’ll face everything together, Dunlop. No more running away.” “What suddenly changed your mind? You were so mad at me before and now you believe me? What happened” he asked running his hands in my hair I pulled away from him and looked at him “Your mother called and she advised me to put my emotions away and think clearly. And s

    Hazel West “Hazel wait”Dunlop yelled under the rain “Please don't go. I can explain everything” I ran over to him and jumped on him, engulfing him in a hug. I could sense his confusion as he wrapped his hands around me. “You don't have to explain anything, I believe you” I whispered still hugging him “You do?” He asked in shock as he dropped me “I do” I said holding his face “I'm so sorry I didn't believe you at first, I'm sorry I left you all by yourself” I leaned in and kissed him and his hands wrapped around my waist as he kissed me back I held his hand and we ran back inside. We headed up to my room and I barely managed to close the door before Dunlop’s lips crashed into mine. The rain had soaked us through, our clothes were clinging to our bodies, but all I could feel was the heat radiating between us, the cold completely forgotten. Dunlop’s hands trembled as he held my face, pulling back just enough to look into my eyes. “Hazel, I’ve missed you so much. I thou

Maybe later” I sniffed “Hazel, I'm not asking if I can talk to you, I'm telling you that I need to talk to you” I heard Mirinda say from William's tablet.
