Hazel remained silent for a moment before smiling and saying, “How old are you? These are not questions you should be asking. Let’s go, your uncle will be angry if he see us here.”

“Don’t you like him?” Richard didn’t move and continued stubbornly, “Although my uncle has a bad temper, he’s not that bad. Beautiful sister, why don’t you try to like my uncle? What do you think?”

Hazel couldn’t help but laugh, and her bad mood seemed to dissipate a bit. ’Beautiful sister? Richard, I’m your aunt.”

“Aunt doesn’t sound good! Are you really not considering it? Do you like my uncle?” He looked disappointed when Hazel didn’t answer, “You’re already married to him.”

Hazel sighed and didn’t know whether to cry or laugh, “Richard, even if I like your uncle, he may not like me. So, let’s drop this topic, okay?”

“Because of Ashley?” Richard frowned at the incoming call on his phone and looked at his screen, “But I don’t like her. I think you and my uncle are better together.”

Hazel didn’t want to talk about this anymore and stood up directly, “Let’s go outside.”

As soon as she finished speaking, the phone, which had been placed on the coffee table when she came in, started vibrating again.

“Ashley?” Richard looked at the incoming call and couldn’t help but frown. He looked at Hazel and said, “Beautiful sister, answer it and see what she wants.”

“She’s looking for your uncle, and it’s impolite for us to answer his phone.” Hazel replied.

Richard shook his head and looked down at his phone, “You’re really timid! You’re my uncle’s wife now, what’s wrong with answering his phone?” He took the phone and said, “If you’re afraid, I’ll answer it. I’ll talk to her properly!”

After speaking, he directly swiped the answer button--

Hazel’s breath caught in her throat, and she stared at Richard not knowing how to react.

“Jack.... Ashley’s clear and pleasant voice came through the phone.

Richard sneered and covered the phone with his hand as he whispered to Hazel, “Don’t worry, I’ve got your back!”

“But what about your uncle....”

“I’ll handle him for you! He won’t do anything to me, trust me!”

“Jack, why aren’t you saying anything?” On the other end of the phone, Ashley didn’t hear any response from Jack. After a moment of silence, she continued, “Are you mad at me for not contacting you these past few days?”

Hazel was too nervous to even breath properly. She thought, if Jack found out that she listened to hs phone call, she didn’t know how he will react. But now, she was just standing there, unable to do anything.

“Don’t be angry,” Ashley said playfully, “I’ve been rehabilitating my strained ligament these past few days and I had to cooperate with the doctor, so I haven’t contacted you. I also want to get better as soon as possible because the new drama you recommended me for, even though it was just a word from you, I don’t want to delay it for too long and make others think i’m too arrogant. Jack, even though I know you think of everything for me, I want to be the best version of myself and stand by your side perfectly.”

“Ah, this drama will take a year to film and it’s overseas. I won’t be able to see you often for a year. Jack, I miss you so much right now...”

Richard rolled his eyes and made a disgusted expression.

Hazel saw it and didn’t laugh. She lowered her gaze and looked at the thick carpet under her feet.

No wonder with Jack’s personality, he was so angry but still married her, and then proposed to divorce her a year later. It turned out....

The marriage was arranged by his Grandfather, and he agreed to get married to please his grandfather and not affect his relationship with Ashley. After a year, he would have an explanation to Grandpa and could still be with Ashley.

Ha....

What was she to him? It was truly pathetic!

“Jack, why aren’t you saying anything?”

Richard was listening to the sound of her voice with a disgusted expression when suddenly his body stiffened. He quickly hung up on the phone and sat up straight, looking like he had done something wrong. Hazel hadn’t even had a chance to ask him what was wrong when she felt a sharp gaze piercing her back, and the air seemed to thin out in an instant. She frowned slightly, feeling a bad premonition rising in her heart. When she turned around, she saw Jack standing my the door, his black eyes filled with a difficult-to-express light, and his whole body exuding a cold killing intent. Her heart trembled as she stared at him, watching him walk towards her with steady steps. He wasn’t walking fast, but his black eyes were locked unto her, and a cold smile played on his lips. The closer he got, the deeper the smile became, making her heart race. “uncle....” Richard swallowed hard and stood up obediently, then handed his phone to the dangerous-looking man. Jack took the phone without even giving Richard a glance, then turned to Hazel and narrowed his eyes, his voice heavy as he spoke, “Hazel, are you satisfied with what you heard?” “I...” Hazel wanted to say that she didn’t mean to listen to his phone call, but if she really said that it was Richard’s idea, wouldn’t that be betraying him? But if she didn’t say anything, how would she explain it? She looked over to Richard, hoping that the little troublemaker could help her explain.

Although he was still a child, it seemed that he was the only who could help her now. But where was Richard now? Hazel stared at the spot where Richard had just been standing, her mind filled with question marks. When did that little rascal run away? He had just promised her that he would take care of everything, so where was he now? “What’s wrong with you?” Jack sneered and spun the phone in is hand twice . “I want to hear your explanation.” “I ....didn’t mean to.” At this moment, that was the only thing she could say. “Heh....” Jack laughed, but it didn’t reach his eyes.

“Hazel, your courage is getting bigger and bigger.” His sharp and sinister eyes swept over her. “What, do you think that now you are Mrs.Jack, you have the right to touch my things? Who gave you permission?

“No, I didn’t think that way.”

But Jack didn’t listen at all. “Tell me, what did you say to her?”

  • Falling for you again    Feeling really depressed

    "There's a situation on our end," said Peter.Jack remained calm. "Please explain.""Just now, the entire company experienced a power outage."Jack let out a slow breath. "Is that all?" If Peter were in front of him, he would have wanted to give him a good scolding. But this wasn't the place for that, so he held back."It's not that," Peter coughed lightly, looking somewhat embarrassed. "The engineering department already checked, but the circuit breaker was fine. They also checked other areas, but found no problems. However, the power came back on for a while just now, but...there were problems with everyone's card swipes."When working at Global, employees had to pass by a row of card readers when taking the elevator. They had to swipe their employee cards to enter. In fact, this was a kind of disguised clock-in method. This way, everyone didn't have to waste time lining up at the clock-in machine."Everyone's cards couldn't be recognized, so they couldn't enter and couldn't clock i

    Hazel wanted to spend some more time with her mother during this period, but as soon as she turned around, Jack spoke up, "By the way, are you planning to go to Australia?"Upon hearing this, Hazel stopped in her tracks and suddenly remembered this matter. Yes, she was originally planning to go to Australia today to pick up Leo...She had completely forgotten about it!The thought of Leo possibly being disappointed in her made her furrow her brows slightly.But how did Jack know about it?She looked at him in surprise, "How did you know I was going there?""Someone named Lucy called you yesterday." He thought for a moment before adding, "You were still asleep at the time and she called several times. I was afraid of waking you up, so... I answered your phone."Hazel didn't have the mind to argue about him answering her phone without her consent. She was only thinking about her promise to Leo."Oh.""Why are you going to Australia?""Just... want to go and have a look." She still didn'

  • Falling for you again    I'm coming over

    Richard stood by the door, cautiously peeking inside before walking in quietly. Hearing his soft footsteps, Hazel turned her head and saw Richard. She was slightly stunned and asked, "Richard?"Richard smiled and squinted his eyes, "Beauty.""How did you come here?" It was still early in the morning, why would Richard come here?"My uncle picked me up." On the way here, his uncle had told him not to mention anything about their grandmother, so he naturally wouldn't say much. He liked Hazel and didn't want to make her sad. Anyway... it didn't matter. Their grandmother didn't like Hazel, but he and his uncle liked her, and that was enough.Hazel was stunned again. Did Jack come to pick up Richard? If it were in the past, she would have thought that Jack was crazy for not letting the child sleep and bringing him here in the middle of the night. But now... on this autumn night, when she felt lonely and sad, a warm current slowly flowed through her heart, comforting her sunken heart."It's

  • Falling for you again    I want to talk to her alone

    Australia.Leo sat in his bedroom, staring at his packed suitcase with a heavy heart. He felt sick to his stomach. Hazel had promised to come and pick him up tomorrow and now suddenly had something else to do.Leo remembered what had happened earlier that day and didn't want to talk to him. Luckily, Lucy was there, so he handed the phone to her to ask on his behalf. The answer he got was that Hazel couldn't come to pick him up for the time being.Ha! What right did Jack have to answer Hazel's phone or to speak for her?"Leo?" Lucy knocked on the door and walked in. "What are you doing?"Leo glanced at Lucy, frowned, and looked out the window, refusing to speak."Still angry, huh?""...No."Lucy walked over and sat next to Leo. "You say you're not angry, but your expression says otherwise."Leo pursed his lips. He was already annoyed, and Lucy was teasing him!"Is it because Hazel can't come to pick you up at the last minute, so you're upset?"He really wanted to see Hazel, but he didn

  • Falling for you again    Be calm

    The slightly heavy tone in Jack's voice made Hazel's breath suddenly stop. Although he only said a few words, her nose suddenly felt sour.She slowly stood up, like a puppet, without saying a word, just slowly lifting her head to look at him.Jack knew that she was waiting for his final answer.He bit his back teeth, closed his eyes, and finally said cruelly, "She... has passed away..."Hazel's spine stiffened, and it took a while before she trembled and asked, "Where... did you find her?"Jack closed his eyes and said, "...in the lake."Hazel's face instantly turned white, and she staggered. Jack quickly supported her. She gently pushed away Jack's hand and said, "You must be lying to me, right?" She forced a smile, but it was full of bitterness. "She was fine, right? She couldn't have gone to the lake, she couldn't have!"Jack sighed, feeling uneasy in his heart. "Calm down a bit.""I can't calm down!" Hazel shouted, then muttered, "She had dinner with me yesterday, talked to me, an

  • Falling for you again    Take a look inside the lake

    Walking out of the corridor and onto the grass by the artificial lake a few other bodyguards were also there."Mr. Jack, Mrs. Jack, Mr. Nick, this is..."Before Zion could finish his sentence, Jack raised his hand to signal him to stop.Nick looked at Jack and was about to ask him what was wrong when he heard Jack say to Hazel, "You go back first, I'll come find you later, okay?"If Mrs. Isabella was really in this artificial lake, Hazel would probably not be able to handle the shock. Even if the end result was not good, at least she wouldn't have to go through this process.Hazel shook her head. "I'll stay here.""Be obedient.""We've been looking for her for a long time, I want to know... where is she?""Don't worry, I will find her. You go upstairs first.""..." Hazel stopped talking, but stubbornly refused to leave."Mali!"Jack shouted, and Mali and another bodyguard who were standing nearby quickly ran over. Jack gestured to them, and they both grabbed Hazel's arms and led her t
