From Secret Wife to Queen of Her World by Anonymous

Chapterl75.

Hazel rested at the hotel for two days.

During this period, Gabriel cto knock on the door several times, but Johnson turned him away. Meals were

delivered to the room.

Fortunately, Hazel knew smedical skills.

With the dual effect of the special spray and her massage, Hazel's ankle recovered on the third day.

The day when the bidding for the Redwood Resort plot took place.

The land transferor invited all bidders to participate, and the positions of Hazel, Gabriel, and Sebastian were

arranged together.

The evaluation committee reviewed the bidding documents. After several rounds of intense competition, the

company behind Hazel was ultimately awarded the bid.

Gabriel and Sebastian were both surprised.

It wasn’t because they yielded to her. Rather, Hazel genuinely won the bid by her ability.

Once the subsequent content was announced and the relevant documents and contracts were signed, Hazel

could proceed with the systematic arrangement of planting herbs on the plot.

These days, she was in a noticeably good mood.

Not only did Hazel win the bid for the Redwood Resort plot, but it was also confirmed that the seeds delivered to

ZN Laboratory were viable seeds that could be cultivated. After the bidding was over, people from other

companies gradually left Akron

Hazel wanted to return to Nyack to visit Annika’s grave.

Johnson was originally going to accompany her back, but his foster father happened to encounter sissues

overseas. He needed to fly there personally to

“John, I'm okay.”

“I just want to go back alone to visit my grandmother’s grave. Don’t worry. | won't get into any trouble.

“Jadon is still in the hospital recovering. Go to handle your business. | will be back in Seattle

tomorrow.”

Hazel wanted to drive back alone, but Johnson was not confident about it and arranged for bodyguards to

accompany her back to Nyack.

But they didn’t know...

There were several cars following Hazel.

Before returning to Nyack, Sebastian cover to bid her farewell. He was going back to Los Angeles to ask his

grandmother and mother why they had done those things to Hazel back then and why they had forced her to

leave.

“Haze.”

Sebastian wanted to apologize to Hazel but didn’t know how to start.

The wound from that year, perhaps, had scabbed over. If Sebastian were to apologize suddenly,

wouldn't it be like tearing open her wound again?

Sebastian's gaze toward her was always gentle, and his voice was clear and soft, the gentlest among all the

voices Hazel had ever heard.

If apologies had a form, it would probably be the appearance of Sebastian at that moment. Hazel tightened her

grip on the doorknob.

“Have a safe journey.”

Sebastian nodded and said, “Take care of yourself and callanytif you need anything. My number is...”

Sebastian believed, based on her memory, that Hazel could easily remember the phone number he told her.

However, he had no idea if Hazel was willing to contact him.

Silence spread between them.

The air at Hazel’s doorway seemed to have frozen in silence.

Sebastian had packed his luggage, and the car was waiting downstairs. He could leave this remote small town at

any time.

But because Hazel was here, there was always an inexplicable entanglement in his heart, and his footsteps

never moved.

Hazel felt the stubbornness emanating from Sebastian. She sighed inwardly, looked up, and smiled, taking the

initiative to break the current deadlock.

“Okay, | got it. If there's a need, | will contact you. It's getting late, so you should leave early.”

Sebastian raised a radiant smile, “I'll wait for you.”

Coincidentally, at that moment, Gabriel from the opposite room opened the door and witnessed, the scene of

Sebastian and Hazel smiling at each other.

Gabriel looked at Hazel across the hallway without any expression.

Hazel, even without looking at Gabriel, could feel the indifference emanating from him and his gaze that

remained on her face.

Hazel stubbornly refused to look at Gabriel and immediately closed the door after saying goodbye to Sebastian.

And Gabriel did not cto knock on her door.

Inside the room, her luggage had also been almost packed. Hazel finished the final preparations and left the

hotel.

She drove toward Nyack alone.

Two hours later.

Hazel returned to the house after being away for several months, and the sofa and carpet in the living room had

been replaced.

The last tHazel left, Johnson deliberately left two people here to clean and keep the house occupied to

prevent anyone in the village from coveting it.

“Ms. Robinson, the house is cleaned every day. You can rest for a while upstairs, and | will start preparing dinner

now.”

Hazel nodded and said, “Thank you.”

Large raindrops hit the windows.

As Hazel pulled the curtain, her gaze casually swept over the window, only to catch sight of a black Maybach

parked not far from the house.

The car model was familiar.

It was a bit like the car Gabriel drove.

Hazel redrew the curtain to look more closely, but the car was parked too far away for her to see the license

plate from the study.

Hazel went to the master bedroom. This time, she could see the license plate and also the man sitting in the

driver's seat.

It was indeed Gabriel.

Hazel was puzzled. Why did he cto Nyack?
