Hazel didn't know what was wrong with her.
Strangely, she suddenly became sensitive again.
After divorcing Chase, she made a secret vow that she would not fall in love with anyone in this life. Being in a relationship with someone could only bring her nothing but pain.
But now, only six years later, her mind was in turmoil again because of Chase.
Hazel frowned, shedding bitter tears.
Then she opened her bag and took out some pills.
Without any hesitation, she took the pills.
Then she became a work maniac and buried herself in work again.
She didn't go to the company these days, thus having a lot of business to do.
Today, she would work overtime to get all these things done.
Her work team was starting to roll in.
It was time to get rid of some deadwood in the company.
Half an hour later.
A black Mercedes Benz was parked downstairs.
As soon as the door opened, Tristan got off in a hurry.
He had numerous luxury cars and drivers.
But he didn't want to show off when he went out alone.
So when he was outside by himself, he drove this car most often.
"Where is Hazel?"
Tristan went to the reception of the company and asked with concern.
"Miss Haynes is having a meeting.
Please take a seat here and wait for a while, Mr. Woods."
"OK, alright."
Tristan sat down in the reception room, and Nova poured him a glass of lemonade.
Tristan was thirsty. He took the lemonade and drank it up.
"Would you like another cup, Mr. Woods?"
Nova asked with a smile.
"Okay, thank you."
With a meaningful smile, Tristan blinked at Nova.
He was good at flirting with girls. Many girls were mesmerized by his amorous eyes.
Nova gave him another glass of water and went back to her post.
Looking at Nova, Tristan couldn't help but praise her, "You are in great shape. It's a pity that you choose to join the showbiz."
"Mr. Woods, please don't make jokes."
Nova's face turned red at once.
It was true that her body was hot. Although her face was not so attractive, she had a good figure.
She was 5 feet and 7 inches tall. She was well–shaped with a slender waist and long legs.
Tristan had to admit that her figure was quite striking.
Thinking of this, he took more glances at Nova again.
He had a weakness for girls with big chests and long legs.
Of course, Hazel was an exception.
She was too thin and weak.
But her face was stunningly pretty. Her eyes were especially amazing.
They were the prettiest eyes he had ever seen in a woman.
One hour later.
Hazel's meeting was over. Tristan and Nova also finished flirting.
They friended each other in Messenger and kept each other's numbers.
The next thing they would do was date someday.
"Miss Haynes, Mr. Woods is coming."
"OK. Let him in."
"Yes."
"Hazel…" Tristan ogled Nova and then went into Hazel's office.
In the office.
Hazel was sitting by the computer and seriously looking at the documents.
She was focused and careful, and her face was beautifully made up.
She looked fresh, capable, and shrewd.
It brought him right back to sobriety and decency.
"You've come. Take a seat. Give me ten minutes. I have some work to do right now."
"OK. Take your time."
Tristan sat down on the sofa opposite her.
Hazel continued to read the documents.
Tristan looked at her without saying anything.
He also enjoyed it very much.
Looking at her was different from looking at other women.
When he was looking at other women, there would be a burning desire in his heart.
But he felt very placid when he was looking at her.
He just wanted to protect her and take care of her.
Just now, Hazel suddenly hung up the phone. He had thought she was angry, so he rushed here to apologize.
But when he got here, he suddenly felt he didn't need to do it.
Hazel had always known he often had women around him.
Ten minutes had passed.
Hazel finished processing the documents. She brushed her hair from her forehead and smiled at Tristan.
"Are you done?"
Tristan stood up, slowly walked to her, bent over, and put his hand on her chair. "Why did you just now?"
Hazel smiled at him and said, "Nothing. I just wanted to call you. I wondered if there were any good restaurants nearby."
Tristan was surprised. Being lost for words, he didn't believe her excuse at all.
Seeing this, Hazel explained, "Really, it's nothing. I just moved. I thought I hadn't had dinner with you in a while. So I wanted to have dinner with you tonight."
Smiling, Tristan got an idea and said, "Well, I know a good restaurant. Let's have dinner there tonight. There is nothing good to eat around here."
Hearing that, Hazel frowned. She asked, "Is it far from here? I can't go too far. I still have work to do tonight."
"Don't let me down. You should listen to me if you want to invite me to dinner."
"Alright. Do we need a reservation?"
"No. I am a member there."
"But let me pay today. Every time I asked you to dinner, you ended up footing the bill."
"OK. I will eat something good this time. After all, you're on the board of directors of such a big company. I'm going to cost you a fortune."
Hazel couldn't help laughing. "OK. You can eat as much as you like."
"Let's take Aiden and Arthur together."
"OK. I know."
Then Hazel called Zoe. "Hello, Zoe."
"Take Aiden and Arthur downstairs. I'll pick you up later."
"Let's go out for dinner tonight. Tell chef she didn't need to cook today. You can go downstairs in 20 minutes later."
"OK, got it, Miss Haynes."
"It's time to go."
"OK"
Hazel turned off the computer and tidied things up.
Hazel's house.
Hearing someone call Zoe, Aiden and Arthur ran over excitedly and exclaimed, "Zoe, was mommy calling you?"
"Yes. Your mommy said we would go out for dinner tonight."
"She asked you to get dressed right now."
"Yeah, that's great!"
They hurried to change their clothes.
After changing the clothes, they happily followed Zoe downstairs.
Ten minutes had passed.
Zoe and the two little boys stood at the gate of the community, waiting for Hazel to come.
They just had been waiting one minute.
All of a sudden, some malicious–looking men in black suits came over.
Without saying a word, they went ahead and forcibly took the two children.
Zoe was freaking out. "What are you doing?"
"Put them down. There is a kidnapping! Help!"
Zoe cried and tried to snatch the children back.
However, she was more than 50 years old. She was too weak to snatch them back.
"Ouch…" Zoe was pushed to the ground by a man in black.
"There is a kidnapping! Help!"
"Let go of me! Let go of me!"
Two men in black hurried to the car parked nearby, with two little boys under their arms.
"Let go of me…" Aiden shouted.
