MasukHazel 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."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'
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
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
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
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
