It was already three o'clock in the morning. Soon, it would be dawn and light would crack through her window.But Hazel couldn't sleep. She tossed and turned in bed, unable to put either her mind or body to rest.Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. Rain was pouring heavily outside. 'The weather matches my current mood,' she thought with some annoyance.Her heart ached every second. Something in it expanded, consuming her completely. Nothing she did would reduce the ache.Her imagination started to run wild. She could vividly imagine Zac with his beloved woman, cozily wrapped in his arms.Damn it, why did she always have to think about him!She cursed her thoughts for always running back to him. He was allowed to love whoever he wanted. And what he did with his lover was none of her business. She had no right to dwell on his thoughts.After taking a deep breath, she forced herself to think about Hanson. After all, toda

The day Mandy came back from France, she immediately called out for Hazel.When Mandy found out that Zac's ex-lover was coming back to town, she was overwhelmed by a state of panic, so she immediately instructed her close friend to act as a third wheel during the jewelry exhibition. She had asked Hazel to secretly engage in destruction, so that she could be together with Zac.Hazel almost fainted when Mandy came up to ask her. She was just a hostess to Zac. Why did she have to turn herself into a bitch?She knew that she should have declined, but Mandy had threatened their relationship and forced her to promise. With her persistence, Hazel just couldn't find it in herself to refuse.Hazel had chosen a bright yellow ancient style dress to wear for the jewelry exhibition. Her black curly hair was simply tossed to her back, with light make-up applied to her face. Her appearance was fresh and refined with a green tea flavor, which was appropriate as t

"Our families have a history of conflict and opposed the relationship between the two of us. Otherwise, we would have been married." Leila truly believed that her relationship with Zac wasn't able to develop further because of the dispute between the two families.Mandy sneered, "If you truly loved each other, you could overcome any obstacle. I'm afraid to say but I think he simply didn't love you enough.""Do you know who else has the freedom..." Leila stopped before she could finish her words when she realized a secret almost slipped her mouth. Zac had made her promise never to expose his true identity.Besides, if they found out that he was actually from a rich and famous family, all the girls would do anything they could to take him away from her.Hazel watched them with a sympathetic look in her eyes. From Leila's statements, she concluded that Zac was disliked by her family because of his poor background. Therefore, they couldn't have a soli

Hazel was slightly taken aback upon seeing Leila. She nodded politely to her and was about to go on her way when the other woman shot out a hand to detain her. Leila said, "I heard what you said just now."Hazel faced her. "Leila, don't you think it's beneath your dignity to eavesdrop on others' conversation?""I just want to know if your boyfriend whom she was referring to was Zac." Leila was not the sort of person to beat around the bush, so she directly confronted Hazel.Leila's words made Hazel's insides quiver like a plucked string. As expected, people in love were so sensitive that they did not need any names mentioned to easily guess the relationship between them. If she said yes, would that ice guy be angry and blame her for causing a misunderstanding and sabotaging his relationship with Leila?They had been apart for too long, and it was not easy for them to reunite. He definitely wanted to maintain their relationship. Hazel, as the unnec

Hazel didn't really want to talk to Leila, but with Mandy sitting next to her, she just had to explain. "The truth is, I don't really have a boyfriend. I just had a friend pretend to be my boyfriend for their engagement ceremony." She said this casually while looking straight into Leila's eyes. "Are you satisfied now, Miss Leila?"Leila pouted and stared at her blankly for a moment. She wanted to say something to get under her skin, but her words had rendered her speechless.The situation had made Mandy feel sympathetic towards her friend, so she put her arms around her shoulder to hug her. As her best friend, she could easily sense what she was trying to do."Your friend seems to have a particular curiosity about me," said Hazel, as she took a sip from her glass of wine and turned her gaze towards Zac."Curiosity kills the cat," he said. Despite saying this in a light, jokingly way, Leila could tell that what he meant was much serious than it app

At the sight of the newcomer, the smile on Hanson's face froze, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly. "Mom! What are you doing here?""My son is injured. Can't I come to see him?" Florey rolled her eyes at him."Auntie, please sit down." Hazel stepped forward and brought her a chair. She knew Hanson's mother very well. She had met her when she was still in school, and they had met several times when she was still in Bella. Every time, Hazel was under the impression that Hanson's mother disliked her.At that moment, Florey sent an indifferent glance her way. Then, she walked to the sofa by the bed and sat down. "Hanson, where is your nurse? Why isn't she here looking after you?""I asked her to leave. Chris will find a new one in the afternoon to replace her," Hanson said with his teeth gritted.Florey evidently thought that the nurse was doing a poor job of taking care of Hanson, but she didn't say anything. Her eyes drifted tow

At Yang City International Airport...Sunny stood at the gate, suitcase in hand.A complacent smile flashed across Sunny's face. Hazel would never think that she would escape this way. She wanted her to square dance to Little Apple? Dream on!An inferior creature such as her, without influence, money, or background, was like a bug she could easily crush under her heel.Sunny smoothed down her high-fashion Chanel dress and stepped forward to register. Suddenly, a large hand landed on her shoulder.She turned around and saw a devilishly handsome man in black standing behind her.

Instead, she spent the whole day bending over her desk, and her disca

Hazel nodded aimlessly as if she was in deep thought.Zac furrowed his brows and asked, "Can he compete with me?""Well, he was the champion of our university's street dance competition, so you know, he's a dance king," Hazel affirmed in a mocking tone. Still dancing and swaying, she turned her back on Zac.'Where's he getting this much confidence? How narcissistic!' she sniffed at him.A hint of disgust was written on his face. 'Champion at your university? I was the top dancer back in Harvard—a champion in the US!' "From now on, I'll be your only partner." He asserted in an intimidating tone as if trying to express his ownership over Hazel."Why? I'm not your only partner anyway…" Her bright eyes suddenly turned gloomy when she realized what she had said. She knew his real companion was Leila—the one person he would dance and watch movies with, along with all kinds of things a couple would do together. 'Leila is the only one in your hea

It was late at night. The big trees outside the window faded into dim shadows in the moonlight.Zac had come home earlier than usual.Instead of turning on the lights, he simply stood in front of the window without saying a word.The windows were wide open. It was not only moonlight that burst into the living room, but also a chilly gust of wind."Zac, you're home," Hazel said in a low voice.Zac didn't respond to her words, nor did he move. It seemed as if he didn't hear her words at all. The curtains fluttered in thewind, making Zac's tall body look like a dark silhouette.Hazel slowly approached Zac. It was not until she smelled a light whisky scent coming from him that she noticed the glass of whisky in his hand.'He's drinking alcohol?' Hazel thought to herself.Thinking of how she saw Leila having dinner all alone in the restaurant in the afternoon, Hazel guessed that they might have quarreled wi

On the first day that he was gone, Hazel decided that as long as he came back, she would cook his favorite dish, carrot stewed with yellow beef, for him.The day after that, she told herself that she wouldn't get angry if he laughed at her or teased her.On the third day, she could only sigh deeply in depression. She swore to herself that if he was ever unhappy in the future, she would be willing to be his punching bag and trash bin so he could vent out his grievances.However, three whole days had already passed, but Zac still hadn't shown up.The days without him were boring.She ate, watched TV, and went shopping alone. It was as if she was the only one left in the world.Time ticked by unbearably slowly.Every day seemed like an entire century.Hazel leaned against the sofa in a trance. She couldn't even get excited at new orders.'Where did he go?Has his hand recovered? Is he still angry?
