Hazel looked at a little brat leaning against the door frame, pretending to be mature and looking unhappy. It reminded her of what happened last night.

She asked indifferently, "Why are you here?"

Richard shrugged his small shoulders and said, "I came to see you. I wanted to make sure you were still alive.

"Thanks to you,I'm still alive." Hazel gritted her teeth, restraining the urge to curse. Though she was much older than him, she didn't need to get angry with a little brat like him. But it was because of this little rascal that Jack did what he did and said what he said to her last night, and she wouldn't have ended up in the cleaning department of Global today.

"are you angry?" Richard stood up straight and carefully examined Hazel.

"No"

"But your tone of voice is not right"

"I worked all day today and I'm tired," Hazel worked towards the door.

Richard grabbed her hand and said "Hey, beauty don't be angry. I also have my difficulties."

Looking at his tangled little face, Hazel became interested and asked, you have difficulties? what difficulties did you have?"

"It's my uncle. You saw him yesterday. His face was as dark as the bottom of a pot. He looked scary. If I didn't run away, I would have been beaten by him. My uncle is so skilled. If he really beat me, it would have affected my growth and development. But you're different You're his wife. Would he dare to beat a woman? Men who beat women are trash."

Seeing that Hazel didn't speak, Richard licked his lips and continued, "I left, but I couldn't just leave you there. I had to find someone to help you. So I did it for both of us. Don't be angry, okay?"

After his explanation, Hazel's bad mood disappeared. She couldn't help but say, "But you disappeared without a trace afterwards."

"I came back, because I was afraid my uncle would really beat you. But..." Richard's face slowly turned red as he spoke, and he said mischievously, "My uncle is pressuring you, he even said he wants to kiss you, and asked if you want more...um....um."

Hazel stared with wide eyes and covered Richard's mouth. Even though he was just a child, her heart inexplicably began to race.

"You're talking nonsense again. If your uncle doesn't beat you, I'll beat you."

Richard pulled her hand away and said, "Beauty, this a civilized society, don't be so violent, okay?" He pouted, "but, you look cute when you blush, like a little apple."

Hazel closed her eyes and decided to ignore the little guy in front of her, "Hurry back to your house."

"I won't!"

Not only did Richard stay for dinner at Rose villa, he also wanted to stay here and not leave, which made Hazel very embarrassed.

"Richard, how can you not go back? Your grandmother will worry."

Richard shook his chubby little hand and gave Hazel a reassuring smile, "Don't worry! I told her I was coming over here when I came."

"But..."

"But what? Beauty, you don't hate me, do you? Just because of what happened last night? I explained t to you just now, and we had a very pleasant dinner together. I thought you had already forgiven me. And I already let the driver uncle go, do you want me to walk back? It's very late now, can't you consider my safety in case there's a big gray wolf or monster or bad guy on the way?"

He dropped his face, looking very aggrieved, and sighed like an adult, shaking his head and saying, "As expected, a woman's heart is the most poisonous! Hmph!"

Hazel lightly tapped his little head, "Where did you learn those word?'

"Never mind, I'm not leaving today. I want to sleep with you! He said angrily, "And, not only does my grandmother know I'm here, I also told old grandpa that I'm not going back today and he agreed."

"Really?" Hazel was skeptical.

"Here you go! Richard handed her his phone. If you don't believe me, you can call Old Grandpa now."

Hazel looked at him seriously, but just to be sure, she used Richard's phone to Grandpa. The answer was the same, he didn't have to come back today.

"How about it?" Richard raised is eyebrows, looking pleased and happy. "Did I lie to you? Beauty don't be so distrustful of others. Actually, this world is still beautiful." He jumped off the sofa and walked upstairs in a familiar way. "Sleep with me tonight, I'm afraid of the dark."

Around nine O'clock, the maid had just finished cleaning the house and came out of the kitchen when she saw Jack open the door, holding a phone in his hand.

"Sir, you;re back?" She had been here for a while, but she hadn't met the male owner of the house many times, and since he got married, he had never come back at night.

Jack nodded lightly, his gaze sweeping towards the living room, while he was still on the phone, "Hmmm, I'm back."

After speaking, he hung up the phone with a frown.

Jack changed his shoe and walked straight inside. "did, Richard come over?"

"Yes," the maid replied,"Young master Richard came over after school this afternoon and had dinner here."

Jack pondered for a moment "What about her? did she come back?"

The maid was a little confused before she realized that Jack was referring to Hazel. "Madam came back and had dinner with young master Richard. She's upstairs now."

Jack responded and went straight upstairs.

His mother insisted that he come back now to bring that kid, Richard,back. He didn't want to come back, but he couldn't resist his mother's repeated phone calls, so he agreed in the end.

This place was not too far from his company, but it was not particularly close either, so he only occasionally stayed here before getting married. After marrying Hazel, he made this place their martial home, but he didn't come back to live here.

Hazel, that woman, should be living in the master bedroom.

Jack searched upstairs but couldn't find Richard or Hazel. He had intended to go downstairs to ask the maid, but as he passed by the master's bedroom, he heard Richard scream.

Without thinking too much, he pushed open the master bedroom.

  • Falling for you again    She's back

    "Hazel, did you not rest well yesterday?" Martha looked at the somewhat haggard Hazel with concern and asked. "Well. just a little bit." Hazel replied.Not having rested all night, her mental state was naturally not great.After arranging everything for the party yesterday and making sure everything was in order, she returned to Rose villa very late. Despite being very tired, she did not sleep and instead rushed to finish the birthday gift for Jack so that she could personally give it to him on his birthday today."Do you want a cup of coffee?" Martha took out a bag of instant coffee from the drawer. "I just bought a box today.""No, thank you." Hazel shook her head. "It's getting late, I'll go upstairs to clean up first.""Okay," When she thought of the CEO, Martha couldn't help but speak again. "Be careful not to provoke the CEO again.""I shouldn't." Hazel took the cleaning tools and headed straight to the 38th floor, of course, with the bank card that Jack gave her. Although Jac

  • Falling for you again    Is it enduring love or heartlessness

    Jack sneered, "Anna, it's been a while, why are you so talkative now?"Anna shrugged as if she couldn't hear his sarcasm, "Haven't I always been like this, Jack?"Hazel quickly glanced at Jack and saw his impatient expression. Although she felt a little disappointed, she still couldn't help but pull Anna's arm ans signal her to stop talking.But Anna ignored her, "Hazel, what's your relationship with him? What's wrong with him accompanying you to buy clothes?" She looked at Jack again and blinked her eyes with a smile, "Jack, or is it that you can't bear to spend the money?"Jack's eyes were cold and he stared at Hazel who remained silent. He suddenly felt disgusted. He had suspected that this woman was deliberately following him and letting Anna say these things. Now it seemed that his guess was not wrong at all. He didn't want to deal with them anymore, so he handed the card that hadn't been put into his wallet to Hazel, "I don't have time to argue with you. Aren't you here to buy t

  • Falling for you again    For her

    After returning from the old mansion of Jack's family, Hazel was full of doubts. Anita didn't answer her, just stared at her coldly with resentment for a long time before saying contemptuously, "Hazel, you did this to yourself. Have you forgotten?Ha!I really don't know whether to say you have a big heart or what. How can there be a woman like you in the world? You look good and can act cute, but your heart is so wicked."What did she do to make Anita hate her so much? This question had been bothering her all night, and she even had a nightmare. In the dream, Anita was chasing her with a knife, calling her all sort of names.She spent another day in the company in a daze,and after work, she didn't stay long because she had to rush to buy a birthday gift. She grabbed her bag and hurried out."Hazel!"Hearing the voice, Hazel looked over and saw Anna standing by the fountain in front of Global gate waving at her with a bright smile."I thought you said you wouldn't be back for another tw

    Over the next two days, Hazel didn't receive any intentional harassment from Jack, and she didn't even see him around. Of course, this was a good thing for her, this was a good thing. Except... her colleagues in the cleaning department gave her strange looks and occasionally said some unpleasant things, but she chose to ignore them.Two days before Jack's birthday, she received a call from the Aiden family's old mansion before leaving work, inviting her to dinner.She hurried over and found that Jack was already at home. When he saw her enter, he just glanced at her lightly and didn't say much. Silas and his wife also came, and when Anita saw her, her face naturally didn't look good. But since Jack Grandpa didn't show any reaction, only Richard, that little guy, greeted her with a smile.After dinner, Jack grandpa asked everyone to go to the living room."Tomorrow is Jack's birthday." He couldn't help but sigh, "Time really flies. Jack is already twenty six years." He then looked at H

    After waiting for Hazel to return to the company, Richard finished his food slowly and was about to leave. However, as soon as he walked out of a cafe, a man blocked his way."Young master Richard.""Uncle Peter, hello." Richard greeted Peter with a smile. "Is uncle Peter having lunch now?""No, the CEO wants me to take you to his office for a moment."Richard was taken aback."My uncle is looking for me?""Yes.""Can I ...not go?" Richard naturally refused at the thought of a certain person's face.Peter smiled lightly. "I'm afraid not."Although Richard was reluctant, he followed Petetr to Jack's office. when he saw a certain person, he became very obedient. "Uncle."Jack lazily glanced at Richard and didn't respond."Uncle," Richard blinked his eyes. "What do you want to see me for?""Tell me, what are you doing here?" Jack asked straight forwardly, "You were just with Hazel?"Richard was stunned. "Did you see us?" He didn't even notice his uncle, the big boss, how did he know that

    The next day, Hazel went to Global with a pair of panda eyes, carrying the "homework" that Jack had asked her to do. Jack looked at the paper filled with writing and slightly curled his lips, then began to point out flaws, "Your handwriting is sloppy. Are you just trying to get by?""No," Hazel replied with a good temper, "Mr. Jake, this is how I write.""Is that so?" He glanced at her sideways. "Then tell me, what does article 11 of the third item of Global says?"Hazel was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Jack to pull this on her. Although she had a good memory, she had done it yesterday with the intention of just getting by. How could she really remember? Besides, she was tired and sleepy later on, and it was impossible for her to think about memorizing these contents."Can't remember?""Or did you not really try to remember?"Facing the aggressive Jack, Hazel replied with a stiff scalp, "Mr. Jack, I have completed what you asked me to give you.""It's good that you complet
