Hazel WestI finished wiping myself up in the bathroom and sent the janitor to the conference room to tidy it up. I made my way to Jacob's office and for some reason I decide to knock“Come in” I heard Jacob sayI opened the door slowly and walked in“When did you start knocking” he said grinning “I should start punishing you more”“Maybe you should” I said taking a seat, smiling“Look Hazel, I'm really sorry about the way I reacted that day with the whole contraceptive thing. I guess I'm so obsessed with having a family I neglected your feelings” he said, sincerely looking remorseful“It's fine Jacob, I was wrong too. You were right, I never really thought about having a family with you. My whole world revolves around Zion and I never really thought outside it but I guess I'll have to adjust myself and my thinking but I need time” I said, hoping he would understand“I completely understand Hazel, you can take as long as you want to prepare yourself, I'll always be here waiting for yo
Hazel West“ Y'all know each other?” Ranger asked surprised“ Of course we do” Jacob replied shaking Dunlop furiously“ Wait, so you own BLC?” I asked still very much surprised“Uhm, yeah” Dunlop asked taking a seat next to his assistant“Mannn, I've been trying to strike a deal with your company for centuries” Jacob laughed“Alright gentlemen, let's get down to business” Ranger said opening his briefcase “so as opposed to your previous deal of buying out the whole company for a month, we're ready to offer you a better deal that will maximize profit for both companies”“let’s hear it” Jacob said looking so excited“We want to sell thirty percent of BLC’s shares to you. Consider this, two of the best publishing companies partner up, we'd be unstoppable” Dunlop explainedThey talked and laughed back and forth while Dunlop kept stealing glances at me and finally came to an agreement. Instead of selling shares, they agreed to partner upWith a firm handshake, Jacob and Dunlop sealed their
Hazel WestThe doorbell rang and Jacob and the kids walked in. I quickly wiped my eyes and smiled“Mommy” they both called outWilliam had started calling me his mom, so I wasn’t surprised.“My babies, how was school” I asked“School was okay and I am going over to uncle Dunlop’s place for the weekend” he announcedI looked at Dunlop briefly and replied to him “how about we talk about that after dinner” I told him“Mummy, I wrote an essay about you” William said, handing me a notebook“Thank you, William” I said hugging him “I’ll read it after dinner. Why don’t you go sit down while I make dinner”“Don’t bother about making dinner hazel” I heard Jacob say “I brought us take outsHe showed me some bags filled with food“Oh my god you are a god” I said giving him a quick kiss as I took the bags from him“This smells nice, alright everyone, let’s eat” I said distributing the bagsEveryone got a bag and we all dug in. as we were eating Jacob spoke up“So, kids we have something to tell yo
Dunlop WestI drove as quickly as I could because I was already running late. I reached the premises and parked my car. I received a call from James asking me where I was. I picked up and explained everything as I hastened up my steps. The receptionist directed me to the conference room. She opened the door and I walked in to see Hazel, Jacob and RangerWhat were Jacob and Hazel doing here“Dunlop” they chorused as they widened their eyes in surprise as I sat downI came to find out that Jacob owned the company and Hazel was his secretary. They also found out that I owned BLC.Throughout the meeting, as we were going back and forth with our business deal and I couldn’t help but steal glances at hazel. I can’t believe I once had her as my wife and I just threw it awayWe finally came to an agreement to be partners instead of selling shares. Dunlop suggested that hazel should be promoted to a managerial position at BLC to better her skills and I quickly agreed for her to be my assistant
Hazel West I went through the whole day with my heart heavy, wondering if Zion had calmed down. Dunlop kept giving me concerned looks and I was forced to wonder if he truly cared about me but I quickly trashed the thought. He couldn’t possibly be concerned about me. I closed from work and Dunlop offered to give me a lift back home and I rejected it I called Jacob to come pick me up and I waited for some minutes before he arrived. He noticed how worried I was and asked what was going on. How could I tell him that I stopped my son from talking his friend because that friend was my ex-husband’s son? How could I tell him that I didn’t want my new boss, who was my ex-
Dunlop WestAfter work, I offered to drop hazel back home but she refused. I lingered long enough to see her go home with Jacob. I wonder what could be on her mindI drove back home to meet William in his room with a frown on his face. I walked into his room and sat on his bed“Daddy, I think I understand what you were trying to tell me yesterday” he said sitting up“What is that?” I asked“About not seeing aunt Hazel for a while” he said “today I overhead aunt Hazel tell Zion’s teacher to keep us apart and not let us see or talk to ourselves. Zion didn’t take it so well, he cried although school hours and uncle Lucas had to come pick him up even before school closed”Oh, so that’s why H
Hazel WestI woke up a little earlier than normal to check on Zion. I knocked on his room door but I got no response so I slowly opened the door to find him still lying on his bed. I walked over to the table and opened the plates and his food was still as I left it. I opened the goodie bag and he hadn’t touched anything of the things I brought up to his room.I shook my head and walked over to his bed and called his name softly but he didn’t answer. I reached out and touched his neck and he was a little over temperature. Maybe it was because he was crying all through yesterday evening. It would probably go back to normal when he wakes upI left his room and went to make breakfast and get dressed for work. After making breakfast, I
Hazel WestI arrived at BLC on time, as usual, parked my car and was about to head into the building when I was stopped by the security guy“Ma’am, can I see your identity card please” the tall muscular guy askedI looked up at him and quickly remembered that it was the card Dunlop gave to me yesterday. I dived my hand into my bag in search of itShit.This wasn’t the bag I used yesterday, the bag I used yesterday was at home and so was the Id card“Uhm, I don’t have it right now but I promise you that I work here” I pleaded, hoping he would consider it “I am this company’s assistant CEO”"I have never heard of such, ma’am. Please step away from the door” he said
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
Dunlop West It had been over a month since we left Arizona and relocated to New York fully. Camilla had signed the contract and we had given her a small sum. She was finally out of our lives for good and she was never coming back.The kids were schooling here in New York and enjoying their time here. Hazel had started her own company and was now a CEO of her own Charisa had been promoted from secret spy/ stunt double to supervisory special agent and she and Lily were now engaged Everything was going smoothly The house was buzzing with activity. It was Hazel's birthday, and everyone was chipping in to make it special. Charisa and Lily were in the kitchen, coordinating the catering and preparing a feast. Zion and William were hanging streamers and balloons, their faces flushed with excitement. I was in the living room, arranging flowers and setting up a small stage for a surprise performance later in the evening.Miranda was in charge of the cake, which she was decorating with int
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
Hazel West I kept turning in my bed. I couldn't sleep, Dunlop and Camilla naked together kept flashing across my mind. I sat up on my bed and held my head in my arms. How could Dunlop do this to me after all the promises we made to each other?I still loved Dunlop and it was so foolish of me. I picked up my phone and scrolled through pictures of us and tears formed in my eyes Why did he even come here? What was he trying to explain? I saw them naked together Camilla words kept ringing in my head ‘He'll always come back to me’“Mummy, we called grandma to talk to her on our tablet and now she wants to talk to you” William said peeping through the slight gap in my door “I don't want to talk to anyone. 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. She was placed on speakerphone I walked over to William and took the tablet from him before he went to his room “Hi Mirinda” I
Dunlop West I left the house with tears in my eyes and fallen shoulders. I couldn't bear to look at kids disappointed faces as I left the houseI drove back to my house and drowned myself in alcohol. I had Hazel and just like that I had lost her and my sons How do I prove to her that I had no idea what was going on and I was drugged? How do I explain to her that this was all part of Camila's plan to break us apart and it was working I took out my phone and quickly called Charisa. It rand a couple of times before she picked up “Hey Dunlop, what's up” her cheerful voice came up on the phone “Charisa, I lost Hazel and the kids and I just found out that Zion is actually mine” muttered“Wait, wait, wait. Slow down. What do you mean you lost Hazel? Is she missing? And how do you know Zion is yours?” She asked“Charisa it's all a mess” I said taking another glass of alcohol “Remember Camilla? The woman I divorced Hazel for when I was completely out of my mind, William's mother. I told y
Dunlop West I woke up later in the evening and found myself naked on my bedMy clothes were scattered on the floor. The last thing I remembered was that Camilla drugged me and somehow followed me into my room before I passed out Did she steal from me or did she try to rape me?William!!!!!I put on a robe and rushed to William's room and he wasn't there neither was Zion Oh God had she taken them both?I rushed back into my room to call the cops but I noticed that Hazel's things were gone tooWas this another kidnap?I dialed Hazel's number but her number wasn't going through I immediately called Camilla and she picked up almost immediately “Where are the children?” I asked immediately “What children? I think you should ask Hazel that. She was kind of in a foul mood when she walked in on us cuddling after we had sex” Camilla said I widened my eyes in shock “What in hell are you talking about?” I asked her completely infuriated “we never had sex and you know that. You fucking dr
Hazel West I was finally done with Jay's corporation. I made sure that they would no longer need my services and I handed over my duties to a manager that I was sure Jacob trusted. I called Jacob and informed him about my resignation and the change in roles He didn't argue he just accepted it that way and I quickly hung up before he could start gaslighting me I had two missed calls from Dunlop and I called back but I got no response. I would just see him at home anyways I got in the car and drove back home, the whole William custody case still playing in my headThe first hearing was next week and I was nervous I arrived back home and walked in. I saw two empty glasses on the side stools. Did Dunlop have a guest?I shrugged and headed upstairs to see him. I called his name severally but I got no response. I got to our room and I pushed open the door and walked in I walked in to see the greatest shock of my life. Dunlop and Camilla were completely naked on the bed and Dunlop was
