Hazel lowered her head without saying a word, feeling helpless inside. This was not luck, this was simply bad luck. Jack knew she would come to Global today, so he came specifically to witness her embarrassment.

It was mealtime, and Global was the headquarter of the Aiden family, so there was naturally many employees around. Although many people remained silent, there was still quite a few who respectfully stood up and greeted Jack as he passed by.

“CEO!”

Jack was not one to smile easily,. When someone greeted him, he would simply nod slightly, at most a sound from his nose, then continue walking without looking sideways.

Many people’s eyes were on Jack, but Hazel tried to lower her head as much as possible to reduce her presence. Her husband, who had just married her, came to inspect work, and as a member of the cleaning staff, it sounded like a joke.

“Hazel, the CEO is so handsome! Even if he doesn’t speak, just look at his long legs, they’re even more perfectly proportioned than a male model’s. Martha was very excited, holding a pair of chopsticks in one hand and tightly holding Hazel hand in the other. She even shook her a few times from time to time.

“Martha, if you don’t eat now, your food will get cold.” Hazel reminded her helplessly.

“I don’t have the appetite to eat now. When beauty is present, my stomach is already full...uh!” Martha suddenly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, looked up at the handsome man standing by the table, and said nervously, “CEO...”

Hazel’s heart skipped a beat, and a few traces of embarrassment crawled up in her heart as she ignored Martha’s surprise and excitement. She trembled her eyelashes and looked down at the plate in front of her, secretly biting her teeth.

Ignoring Martha’s panic and surprise, Jack looked down at Hazel, who was burying her head, and hooked his lips slightly. “How’s the food in the canteen?” His tone was casual, but if one listened carefully, there seemed to be a hint of teasing.

Hazel’s face turned pale. She knew he was asking her, even though he didn’t mention her by name. If there weren’t so many people around, what he really wanted to say was probably: Hazel, you’re at least a young lady of the Brook family. You’ve gone great lengths to climb into my bed, but now you’re eating staff meals. Didn’t expect that, did you?

Martha thought Jack was asking her because she didn’t dare to look directly at him.

Her heart was beating fast. Although she dare not think of anything else, for her, who had seen the CEO twice in two years, the fact that he could stand beside her and even ask her a question was like a dream come true. She stood up abruptly, accidentally knocking over the chair behind her. “Re..report to the CEO, it’s very, very good!” She felt like she had left something out, so she added, “Really, really good!”

Jack glanced at Martha, who was blushing, and his lips twitched slightly. He didn’t say much, just nodded lightly. He then looked at Hazel, who seemed to be frozen on her chair, and quickly glanced at Martha’s name tag. “from the cleaning department?”

“Yes, CEO.”

Jack furrowed his brows slightly. “Hmmm, you can eat.”

The group had already left the cafeteria, and Martha was still in a daze, wondering if it had all been a dream.

Now that the CEO was gone, Hazel breathed a sign of relief. She looked at the person next to her, who was struggling to hold her chopsticks, and sighed softly, “Martha, let’s eat.”

Martha snapped out of her daze and grabbed Hazel’s hand. “Hazel, did you hear that? The CEO just talked to me!”

Hazel didn’t say much. “Hmmm.”

“Oh my god!” Martha exclaimed. “They say the CEO is ruthless, and sometimes not very approachable. But that’s totally wrong! Look, just now the CEO came to care about our food and even talked to me! Ahh!” She pounded her chest in excitement. “The CEO is truly a dragon among men, a prodigy of heaven. Not only does he come from a good family and have great abilities, but he also has a perfect body and a voice that can make people pregnant!”

Cold and ruthless, that’s the real Jack! Hazel though to herself, but she couldn’t help but feel amused by the person next to her who was deceived by Jack’s appearance. “So, are you pregnant now?”

“How is that possible? I was just using a figure of speech.” Martha glanced around and whispered to Hazel, “Oh no, what am I going to do ? Why did the CEO talk to me? after today, I will become the enemy and envy of all women in Global. The CEO is such a demon!”

Jack walked out of the canteen and let the finance and logistic department go first. He glanced at his assistant beside him, his eyebrows furrowed. “What’s going on?”

Peter was taken aback.

“President?”

“Didn’t you arrange it? Why did she end up in the cleaning department?” That woman, Hazel , was sitting with the person who spoke to him. When he passed by, he happened to hear her talking to Hazel. He knew she was also in the cleaning department.

Peter only then realized what Jack was talking about. “President, I’m not really sure about this. I just followed your instructions and asked Manger to arrange a slightly more difficult job for her.” He had no idea that she would be assigned to the cleaning department

Jack didn’t say anything, his deep eyes were dim and unclear.

Peter took a look at his boss’s expression and felt extremely distressed.

He had been working with the president for several years and knew that the president and Miss Hazel had grown up together since childhood. When he suddenly received such a call, he thought his ears were playing tricks on him. although the Brook family was no longer what it used t be. Miss Hazel was still the daughter of the Brook family. She came to Global to work and to do hard work?

But he was paid to do such things, so he naturally had to follow his boss’s orders. The result....why did the president’s expression seem a little off?

“President, why don’t..... I go and inform the manager to rearrange a position for Miss Brook?”

“No need.” The dimness in Jack’s eyes disappeared in an instant, and he hooked his lips. “Don’t bother, let it be.”

Cleaning work is usually done in the morning, and the rest of the time is usually very idle unless there’s a sudden need for cleaning or a general cleaning. So after lunch, Hazel had almost nothing to do for the whole aftnoon. Occasionally, she would chat with Martha, and soon it was time to get off work.

Hazel thought that if the workload was like this everyday, Jack had really arranged an easy job for her. But that was simply impossible. she didn’t even know where she would be cleaning tomorrow.

As she walked past the pool in front of the house, someone pulled open the door form inside, followed by a male voice saying, “why are you coming back so late?”

  • 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

  • Falling for you again    His concern

    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
