"How about this? The branch we’ve established still doesn’t have many projects. We can temporarily lend some of our people to your company."

Hazel immediately rejected, "Let’s not talk about whether your employees agree, just the idea alone is enough for me to get criticized at the shareholders' meeting."

She would have to borrow employees from another company to handle her own company’s issues? If those old men who didn’t understand the situation found out, they would surely lecture Hazel.

Moreover, the HX branch had just been established and was in need of people. Hazel couldn’t pass all these troubles onto Xander. He had already done enough for her as a friend.

"Last night, Grandpa asked me if I needed employees. If it’s necessary, I can borrow a few from him. His company is already well-established, so it shouldn’t be a big problem."

At first, Hazel intended to handle these matters herself, but it seemed she would have to use her connection with Omar aft

    Back in the office, after sending those two off, Bailey walked in. Hazel was busy handling the project sent by Omar and didn’t have time for her. “If you have any work-related matters, just directly report to Sully. Remember, she’s your superior now, and you’re reporting to the wrong person.” “I’m not here to report work. My parents want you to come to dinner at our house this afternoon. You should know, it’s not me who wants you to come.” Bailey put on an arrogant posture, her nose upturned, as if she didn’t want Hazel to come to her house. But Hazel could see through her act. The more she acted this way, the more it seemed like she wanted Hazel to visit. Using such a childish tactic, it was hard to believe that Jonah had entrusted her with this task. “If that’s the case, I’ll do you a favor. I’m really busy with work, though, so I don’t have time.” With that, Hazel lowered her head and started working again. Bailey grew anxious and slapped her ha

    Hazel paused for a moment, wondering why she was thinking of Damon at this time.“Don’t be so formal at home, just call her Hazel, we’re all friends here,” Jonah patted the man on the shoulder, waving his hand dismissively, without considering Hazel’s feelings at all.Being called ‘Hazel’ so familiarly wasn’t something a man meeting her for the first time should be doing.“By the way, Hazel, this is Marco Lennon, the only son of the Lennon family and the heir to L Corp. You two are about the same age, you can get to know each other. I heard the company is having some difficulties, maybe Marco can help out.”The expression on Jonah’s face, along with his words, almost made it clear that today’s visit was a setup for matchmaking.Sully couldn’t help but laugh, “Well, I knew there had to be some reason for calling you here today. Once I saw it was a matchmaking setup, I was relieved.”At least it wasn’t something more malicious, and she didn’t

    No matter how you look at it, Sully certainly hoped Hazel would end up with Xander. However, when it came to feelings, it was important to respect Hazel's wishes. "Stop making nonsense. Do you think I have time to think about these things right now? The company is so busy, how could I even consider dating?" Hazel said. Hearing this, Sully felt much more at ease. No matter what, she would rather Hazel stay single forever than fall for a scumbag like Damon again. In fact, being a workaholic, just like her, wasn’t such a bad thing for Hazel. At least she could control her own emotions. Whenever Sully thought about people in relationships, whose emotions were at the mercy of someone else, she felt a pang of unease. After following Bailey upstairs, it was obvious that the second floor wasn’t as spacious as the first, but it wasn’t small either. The second floor alone could accommodate a large three-bedroom apartment. The three bedrooms upstairs were for

    After saying this, Hazel pulled Sully and was about to leave, but Adele quickly stepped forward to stop them. "Hazel, don't be angry. Your uncle just doesn't know how to speak. Men like him always get things wrong. We really invited you here today just to have a nice meal with you." "I know there have been some unpleasant things between you and the company before, which is why Bailey invited you over for dinner. To be honest, I have some selfish intentions too. Your uncle doesn't know how to handle things, and I want you to look past it, considering he’s still your elder in a way. Don’t hold it against him too much." Adele spoke sincerely, but Hazel wasn’t buying it. "Excuse me, ma'am, it’s not just work-related issues between us. You know exactly what you’ve done," Sully said, pushing Adele aside and grabbing Hazel’s arm, ready to leave. For some reason, as soon as they reached the door, both of them suddenly felt dizzy. Hazel nearly lost her balance a

    Although Marco couldn’t hear her clearly, he understood what Sully wanted him to do. Just as Jonah was about to drag Hazel into the room, Marco stepped forward and pulled Hazel into his arms. "Mr. Queen, have you forgotten our agreement?" Even if Sully didn’t say anything, Marco couldn’t just stand by and watch the woman he cared for being humiliated. With Marco protecting her, Hazel finally regained a bit of her sanity. Her strength also began to return gradually. First, her fingers could move, then she was able to stand on her own, and soon her mind cleared up significantly. "Marco, this is a family matter of the Queen family. As an outsider, you should mind your own business!" Earlier, when she had helped Bailey into the car, Bailey’s head had been bleeding heavily, and she was unconscious. Jonah had intended to go to the hospital, as he couldn’t rest easy leaving Bailey in such a state. If it weren’t for Adele telling him to return and tak

    In front of Hazel, Xander was usually able to control his emotions, and it was rare for him to lose control like this. When she thought about what Sully had said to her about Xander liking her, seeing him like this made Hazel’s heart tremble. She had no feelings for Xander and didn’t want their brotherly bond to become complicated. “No need, I’ll handle it myself. I wasn’t entirely unprepared for this situation,” she said as she removed a button from her clothes. It turned out she had brought a mini camera with her in advance. With this evidence, even if Jonah wasn’t imprisoned, he would still be detained for a while. Moreover, Hazel’s actions toward Jonah could be considered self-defense, and Jonah wouldn’t be able to use this incident against her. This time, she was going to ruin Jonah’s reputation and force him to sell the shares he held in the company! Less than half a day had passed since Sully was hospitalized when Damon arrived. By that time

    Queen's Corporation was already in a precarious situation. If Jonah started to sell off a large portion of his shares at this time, other shareholders might also take action. To acquire all those shares, Hazel not only needed a substantial amount of funds but also the right connections to oppose her. Because after she completely tore her relationship with Jonah, even if he sold his shares, he would definitely sell them to people who were not on good terms with Hazel, just to annoy her in the end. “You don’t need to worry about the funds to purchase the shares. I can lend them to you, but it won’t be free. In consideration of my grandfather, I’ll lend it to you at 50% below the bank’s lowest interest rate,” Damon said. “As for the person to buy the shares, if you trust me, I happen to know someone who can handle it.” ... Two days later, Xander went abroad to the headquarters to discuss cooperation with Queen's Corporation, while Sully was discharged from

    There were rumors online that the disaster involving Jacob and his wife was caused by Jonah's family, which is why they never properly searched for Hazel's whereabouts all these years. In fact, Hazel had been in Vernon, and it was only three years later that Jonah’s family finally saw her again.‘No way, such a big incident, wasn’t the case closed by the police back then?’‘Maybe there wasn’t enough evidence. Handling cases requires solid proof, not just random rumors from the internet.’‘But I do think there’s some truth to it. After the accident, Jonah’s family indeed benefited a lot. Didn’t you hear? When Hazel Queen came back, Jonah managed to transfer all of Jacob’s assets to his own name.’‘Exactly, they probably spent most of the money. Recently, they were even kicked out of the villa by Hazel Queen. I heard that villa was bought by Hazel’s parents before their accident, with plans to have their own family live there.

    For some reason, Hazel couldn’t shake the feeling that Harold wouldn’t harm her. Despite their two previous encounters, where she had ended up tied up both times, there was something almost magnetic about him.It was as if there were a kind of magic surrounding him—magic that made her feel safe.At least so far, every time she had met Harold, she had always returned unharmed.This car accident was the only exception, but the people behind it didn’t seem to want her dead. If they did, she definitely wouldn’t have woken up so quickly."No matter what you decide to do, make sure to think it through carefully. Let Damon investigate first," Mark advised.Hazel nodded and gave a small laugh. "Thinking back, it's actually quite amusing. The once mighty Damon now seems more like my assistant."Her words made Mark laugh as well. "Assistant’ is a rather flattering term. It’s more like he’s become a servant."Th

    Hazel's injuries from the car accident weren’t light. If an ordinary person had been in her place, they’d probably need ten to fifteen days of rest. But Hazel had the Shadow Vial X in her system, so she had recovered to a great extent in just one week."Didn’t expect the Shadow Vial X to be this powerful. No wonder so many people are trying to get their hands on it," Damon couldn’t help but comment, despite his vast experience.Achieving immortality seems impossible with the current state of science, but things like the Shadow Vial X, which can enhance the body's functions and push human limits, are precisely what draw so many to covet it."Though you're better now, it's best you don’t go out just yet," Elias calmly pointed out, and everyone agreed.No matter who caused the accident, it was most likely aimed at the Shadow Vial X. If news got out that Hazel was recovering so quickly, it would only make people even more f

    HX’s headquarters was in D country, so it was perfectly normal for Xander to return there for work.However, Harold’s people must know that Xander was involved in this matter. It wouldn’t be easy to keep it from him entirely."We still need to be cautious. Harold is not as simple as we think," Damon said, his worry clear, though he didn’t have a better solution.Sully had been silent, her head lowered. She knew everything about the incident between Hazel and Harold from the very beginning.She always felt that Harold didn’t seem to have bad intentions toward Hazel. If he truly wanted to know if the Shadow Vial X was on Hazel, he wouldn’t have used such a reckless approach. After all, if something went wrong, Hazel could really lose her life.Harold only had Hazel as a lead; he wouldn’t so easily abandon this clue."Have you considered that what happened to Hazel this time might not have been done by Harold?" Sully suddenly spoke up.

    "I’ll find a way to bring her back to the Price residence. My Grandpa’s health isn’t good, so we have most of the medical equipment at home. If Hazel just has external injuries, treating her should be no problem."Even though this hospital was invested in by the Price Corp, Damon no longer dared to let Hazel stay here for treatment.After all, there were so many people in the hospital, and he couldn’t be sure whether they were all from the Prices."I understand. If you need anything, just call me directly. You can keep Sully close to you. She’s a girl, and she has a good relationship with Hazel. Plus, she’s quite capable," Xander said."It’s better for her to take care of Hazel while we handle the situation."Damon nodded, not planning to have Sully leave with Xander. As for Omar, there were no secrets about him, and he was a good fit to stay in the hospital for treatment.Fortunately, there were doctors loyal to the Price family in this hos

    Damon didn’t believe this was a simple accident; it had to be related to Harold. Originally, he had planned to investigate the matter involving his granduncle later, but now, the urgency of finding answers had increased.Damon sat in the ambulance with Hazel, heading to the hospital while Kin stayed behind to handle things at the scene.Once everyone was rescued, the police took their statements, and the area was quickly cleared. The bloodstains were washed away with water, and aside from a few spots that hadn’t dried, the horrific scene seemed as though it had never happened.Before the results of Hazel and Omar’s surgeries were available, Damon couldn’t bring himself to inform the old master.Ever since the events with Agatha and Jamal, the old master’s health had been deteriorating. The doctors had insisted he needed to rest.The old master had already worried himself sick over the situation with Hazel’s paren

    “You have one too? Where did you get it?” Mark was utterly stunned. For a moment, he thought Hazel might have some connection to his estranged brother.“There’s a secret room in my parents’ study,” Hazel explained. “When I went in once, I found it there. I was worried it might be tied to something dangerous, so I didn’t dare mention it.”As she spoke, Hazel felt a pang of guilt. These people cared so deeply about her family matters, sharing everything they knew, yet she had withheld this crucial piece of information.“I’m sorry,” she said earnestly. “I didn’t mean to keep it from you. I was just afraid that knowing about this might put people in danger.”Her parents’ tragic fate still weighed heavily on her, making her cautious about involving anyone else. These people were family to her now, and she couldn’t bear the thought of putting them at risk.“This is your family matter,” Mark said gently. “It’s perfectly normal if there are things you don’

    Damon, who read quickly, skimmed through the entire file before passing the laptop to his grandfather."So, it turns out everything Harold told me last time was true. I thought he might have planted some false information to mislead me into passing it along to you.""What exactly is Harold's objective? If he wanted to take the Shadow Vial X from you, he should have worked to gain your trust. Why would he reveal the entire truth to you through me?"Now that the truth was out, it was impossible to hide that Harold had a hand in harming Hazel's parents.If Harold thought he could convince Hazel to hand over the artifact now, he was clearly deluding himself."I don't understand it either," Hazel admitted. "Maybe he has a plan that we just don’t know about yet. That puts us at a disadvantage."The thought unsettled her. This constant feeling of being in the dark while the enemy operated from the shadows left her deeply uneasy.Esp

    “Don’t worry, Hazel. What trouble could your grandpa possibly be in? The only downside is that the information network I relied on is completely burned. Years of hard work, gone! But finding something this significant makes it all worthwhile.”Seeing the proud smile on Omar’s face, Hazel finally felt reassured enough to focus on the materials.The information was incredibly thorough, laying bare everything about Harold, including his entanglements with Novaria and Jacob.As it turned out, Novaria was indeed Harold’s adopted daughter and a key researcher in his laboratory.Later, Novaria fell in love with Jacob, who joined her in the lab.
