He is a despicable person

"Thank you..." Hazel sat in the passenger seat, watching the passing scenery outside the window. After thinking for a while, she thanked him, "for coming to pick me up."

There were several cars belonging to him Rose villa, but she had never driven any of them because she was afraid that he would accuse her of touching his things without his permission. Taking a taxi to the party today didn't seem like a good idea.

Jack snorted lightly, "If you want to thank someone, thank Grandpa."

Hazel immediately understood that it was Grandpa who asked him to come and pick her up.

However, even if he verbally agreed with Grandpa, he could still choose not to come. She was still benefiting from Grandpa's influence. But if he really went in with her, what would they say? Claiming to be his wife was definitely not allowed. A female companion? But many people knew that he loved Ashley.

Lost in thought, she heard Jack speak again, "Grandpa wants us to go together, but we had an agreement before hand. You know what to do when the time come. right?"

Hazel was puzzled, "What?"

She looked at him for a while before he gave her a cold, indifferent look,"When the time comes, you are you and I am me. Do you understand?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he fiercely turned the steering wheel and the car stopped by the side of the road. He turned his head and coldly ordered, "Get out!"

Hazel looked at the street outside, "Haven't we arrived yet?"

Jack sneered,"Do you want me to take you directly to the venue?"

It was already past six o'clock, and although the summer nights were long, it was still hot outside. Hazel stood alone on the street, looking at the familiar silhouette of the Maybach feeling inexplicably cold. She was happy when he came to pick her up in Rose villa, but what was the result? He just reminded her not to expose their relationship. But they were still quite far from the charity event venue. Was it okay to just leave her here? Couldn't he drop her off a little closer to the event?

It was difficult to get a taxi during dinner time. By the time Hazel arrived, the auction was almost over.

"Eighty million!" The auctioneer held the small hammer and shouted excitedly, "Lot 27, with a bid of 80 million. Is there anyone else who wants to bid?"

The room was filled with murmurs, but no one raised their bid.

"80 million once! 80 million twice! 80 million three times!" with a very knock of the hammer, the auctioneer shouted to the people below, "Our last auction item today,'Angel's Love' has been sold. Congratulation Mr. Jack!"

As the applause rang out, Hazel sat in her seat, watching the man who was now surrounded by many people congratulating him. She was stunned for a moment before looking away.

Angel's Love was a necklace, with the most eye-catching feature being the pink heart-shaped gem in the center. Before coming here, she had heard the story about this necklace.

After the auction, there was a regular banquet, which mainly involved eating and drinking, as well as getting to know more people or establishing connections.

Hazel had not returned for three years and was not unfamiliar with such occasions, but she did not know many people here today.After all, everyone else was in groups, while she was alone.

So she chose a corner and ate quietly by herself, planning to leave soon.

"Hazel!" Rachael suddenly patted Hazel's shoulder and greeted her loudly.

Hazel did not expect Rachael to be here, but she only nodded faintly. "You're here too?"

"Yes!" Rachael smiled sweetly. "I came with Andrew. Today, I am his companion."

"I see." Thinking of what happened at Global yesterday, Hazel was keen on seeing Andrew. she was afraid of Jack, but was afraid of causing trouble for Andrew.

"I just saw Jack, I didn't see you. I thought you didn't come. But my dad told me that Jack's assistant came to Brooks the other day and specifically said not to disclose your relationship. although you came, you can only watch from the sidelines." Rachael sat down on a nearby chair. "Hey, Hazel, you rejected Andrew before, but now..."

Hazel was feeling upset. "Have you said enough? If you have, then leave." She didn't like Rita and Rachael from the bottom of her heart. Although Rachael was usually polite to her, this was the first time she had been so sarcastic and mocking.

"Don't go. I came here specifically to keep you company," Rachael said.

Hazel wanted to leave, but she didn't want to see Jack, unfortunately, Rachael wouldn't leave either. She didn't care what was n the glass in front of her and picked it up to drink.

Seeing Hazel was ignoring her and just drinking alone, Rachael couldn't help but sneer. Hazel had always been proud, like a beautiful, elegant, and arrogant peacock. But now? She looked like a discarded woman!

Because her father had forbidden her from mentioning Hazel's relationship with Jack outside, she naturally wouldn't be so stupid as to bring it up herself. Otherwise, if the Brooks family had any trouble, she wouldn't have an easy time either. But now, seeing Hazel's lonely appearance, she had endured it for so long, she had to find some satisfaction.

"By the way, Jack was really amazing just now. He directly bid 80 million for that thing... It shouldn't be for you, right?" Rachael blinked innocently, but her words were not as innocent as her expression.

Hazel gave Rachael a cold glance, but before she could retort, she saw Jack walking over, surrounded by a group of people, even receiving compliments like," Mr. Jack, you are truly young and promising."

Jack didn't speak. He stood there in his sharp suit, exuding an air of nobility. Even though there were so many people, he was still the most outstanding one.

"Mr. Jack. I heard that you and Miss Ashley have a good relationship. The necklace you just bid for is Miss. Ashley, right?" Someone asked.

Jack paused, glanced at Hazel, whom he had already seen, and then slightly curved his lips.

"You've heard a lot. She is simple-minded and this necklace is the perfect match for her. Some people are too scheming. Even if they were given it, they would defile the meaning of the necklace itself." his magnetic voice transmitted over to Hazel.

Hazel's breathing faltered, and she suddenly felt nervous. The hand holding the glass unconsciously tightened its grip.

She turned her head away, pretending not to have seen him, but his magnetic voice still reached her ears.
