Omar lived in a villa area near the city center, not far from where Delilah had arranged to meet.

He was unlike most elderly people, who preferred solitude; Omar loved a lively atmosphere and had no interest in secluding himself in the suburbs.

When they arrived at Omar’s house, he was working out in the yard, surrounded by various fitness equipment.

It should have been a peaceful, fragrant place, but instead, it had been turned into a gym.

"Uncle Omar, your villa is quite interesting. You’ve put all your fitness equipment outside."

"Exercise should be down-to-earth. Breathing in the fresh air outside is much better than staying cooped up inside all the time."

Omar wiped the sweat from his face and walked up to Hazel.

"Why did you come over today? Did you bring the hard drive?"

Hazel took out a wooden box from her bag, opened it, and inside was the hard drive, severely damaged from the fire. Even from its appearance, it was cle

  • Sorry Ex, This Queen Is No Longer Yours   Final

    Six Month LaterIn a quiet dressing room just off the hall, Hazel stood before a full-length mirror, her gown catching the morning sunlight, draped in a breathtaking wedding gown crafted by a renowned designer. The fitted bodice, intricately embroidered with delicate silver threads, highlighted her figure, while the flowing train shimmered like a moonlit lake.Sully fluffed Hazel's veil, her smile brimming with excitement.“You look stunning,” Sully whispered. “Damon’s going to lose his mind.”Hazel laughed softly, her hands clutching the bouquet of white anemones. “He’s already lost his mind to show up uninvited to my birthday,” she teased, but the warmth in her eyes betrayed her deep affection.Four years ago, they had a grand wedding too—but it was devoid of love, a mere arrangement that left both of them indifferent and unfazed. This time, everything was different. For the first time, she felt a flutter of nervous excitement in her chest.Jacob appeared at the door, his expression

  • Sorry Ex, This Queen Is No Longer Yours   Happily Reunited

    It was laughable. Such big news, and these reporters weren’t about to let it slip away. Among the reporters, there were those who had previously been snubbed by Bailey, and now, it was their time for revenge. Had it not been for Amber buying up many of Bailey’s scandals from them earlier, these videos might never have been released now. Bailey couldn’t leave, and the screen kept playing more of her scandals, all new ones, none repeated. The staff backstage were flustered, not knowing how to stop the video. Eddie sat on a toilet in the backstage bathroom, controlling the big screen live. After over ten minutes, the staff finally remembered they could just unplug the power. But of course, Eddie wasn’t about to let the show end so soon. He sent the remaining videos to everyone’s phones, including the journalists, ensuring no one missed out. Having played his part, Eddie slipped away from the chaos. Bailey’s reputation plummeted, and

  • Sorry Ex, This Queen Is No Longer Yours   Bailey’s Scandals

    If it weren’t for Hazel showing Jacob some videos, he probably would’ve believed everything Jonah said. At the very least, he’d need to go ask Marco for confirmation.“So, in the end, you wanted to take photos of Hazel… because Marco instructed you to?”Just thinking about his daughter encountering something like this at his uncle’s house made Jacob feel as if a thousand needles were stabbing into his heart.It was all his fault. He hadn’t properly raised his brother.After he left, even if Jonah tried to take the family fortune for himself, Jacob could have excused it, thinking that people were selfish by nature.But what he had done to Hazel, Jacob couldn’t accept that at all.“Take photos? What photos? Bro, is it possible that Hazel misunderstood something? I wouldn’t admit to something I didn’t do.”Jonah spoke with righteous indignation, but Jacob didn’t understand. His brother, whom he had raised, was suddenly so good at lying w

    After leaving this warning, Hazel didn’t look back as she entered the villa and casually shut the door behind her.Naturally, the reporters weren’t willing to give up such a big scoop. Their microphones were practically shoved into Bailey and Adele’s faces."What exactly did you do to Hazel that made her whole family so hostile towards you? Can you reveal some details?""Jacob and his wife have always been known for their good temper. Just now, I saw Mr. Jacob Queen sneer at you. Did you do something so universally detestable to Hazel Queen?""Was the reason Hazel kicked you out of Queen’s family related to something you did?"One question after another made Bailey and Adele’s faces grow increasingly worse.If this had happened before, Bailey could have easily cleared her name with just a couple of words.But now, she couldn’t ignore Hazel’s warning from earlier. Hazel really had the ability to follow through on her threats.Ha

    Hearing the discussion ahead, Jonah didn’t think much of it at first, but when he heard the comment later, his face immediately changed.However, before coming, Bailey had already given him a mental prep. No matter what these reporters said, he couldn’t get into a conflict with them. Otherwise, the consequences would be severe.The public opinion on the internet was already in the hands of these reporters. If Jonah dared to show them a bad attitude, the next moment, his family's bad reputation would spread everywhere.Previously, when Bailey had Agent Amber by her side, they had to show some respect toAmber whenever these reporters came around.Later, Agent Amber always took leave, and it was unclear where these people had heard the rumors, but they began to say that Agent Amber no longer wanted to be her manager.So now, there wasn’t as much warmth towards her, and any issue could come to her directly.Bailey was also quit

    As soon as those words were said, a nanny car drove up.All the paparazzi rushed over, fearing they might be too late to get an interview with the people inside.They didn’t consider that Bailey deliberately let this news leak so they would come, intending to make a spectacle of today’s event in front of them.How could she possibly let them leave without getting an interview?"Miss Bailey Queen, hello. We heard that Hazel’s parents have returned alive. Is that true?""Did you come today to attend the welcome ceremony for Hazel's parents?""If Jacob Queen has returned, is there a chance your family might return to the Queen Corp?"The reporters kept throwing their questions at her. In the car with Bailey were Jonah and Adele, both of whom had come today.Recently, Amber had frequently taken leave due to not feeling well. Adele could tell it wasn’t really because of illness—she simply
