From Secret Wife to Queen of Her World by Anonymous

Chapter 318 Over Their Heads

Hazel did not take his drink and sat down on the sofa facing the surveillance wall

She got straight to the point and said, “Jadon, since you had such amazing abilities, why bother working with

me?

Even on Jadon’s territory, her eyes couldn’t see any panic.

The man didn’t mind her not taking the glass of wine, he finished the drink that was originally meant for her,

turned around and sat back in his previous seat, and answered her question.

“Strictly speaking, it was not my skill.”

He turned his head and looked into Hazel’s eyes, his voice suddenly deep, “But... yours.”

Upon hearing Jadon’s words, Hazel, who had previously shown no emotional fluctuations, was actually piqued by

his mention and her gaze fell upon his face, revealing an expression of anticipation for what he would say next.

“The Fowler family, one of the legacies your grandfather left for you.”

Hazel’s pupils shrank, and her gaze becsolemn as she looked at him.

But Jadon had not finished speaking yet.

His gaze never left Hazel’s face as he saw her eyes flicker for a moment upon hearing “the Fowler family,” but

then quickly calm down. He lowered his eyelids, hiding the carefree expression on his face, and instead wore a

serious look as if giving a report.

“Besides here, there were Northfield, Seattle, Baltimore, Los Angeles, Raleigh... A specific list will be organized

and given to you later.”

If it were an ordinary person, upon hearing that their grandfather had left them so much power and wealth, they

would certainly feel extremely happy.

But Hazel only saw one black mass after another approaching her.

Is it true power or a probing to confuse and deceive?

She harbored doubts in her heart.

At this moment, a knocking sound cfrom the door, interrupting the conversation inside the house.

“Let's have something to eat first. | saw you didn’t eat anything all night while you were immersed in the

laboratory. | prepared slate-night snacks for you.”

Two people pushing a food cart cin, quickly placed the meals on the dining table, and left soon after.

It has always been Hazel’s problem to forget to eat when she is focused on work.

Recently, she rarely returned to the past work mode, and she was still somewhat unaccustomed to it.

| was indeed a little hungry at that time.

Hazel spoke up, “Well, that would be troublesome.”

“How could it be? You can treat it as your own home, after all, these are all things left by the Fowler family for

their own people.”

Jadon had been using the Fowler family to bring Hazel closer.

And she also realized it.

Hazel faced his probing, always wearing a faint smile, concealing her true emotions.

Jadon was also unsure whether she believed her own words or not.

He continued to probe, “Don’t you believe me?”

“Jadon, the principle | have always adhered to is: pies don’t fall from the sky.”

She gently blew on the seafood porridge in the bowl, with a half-smile on her face, and looked into his eyes as

she said, “Even if this pie was made by my grandfather.”

Upon hearing Hazel’s words, Jadon actually breathed a sigh of relief.

If she had believed him from the beginning, she would have had to worry about whether she could beca

qualified partner,

The two people were having a conversation, speaking sentence by sentence.

The more he ate, the more dark colors gathered in Jadon’s eyes.

Today he chose to bring Hazel to his secret base, in order to show his cards and increase the chances of

cooperation.

Facing the man’s seemingly indifferent attention, Hazel calmly ate the seafood porridge in her bowl.

Should | say it or not, the chef's cooking skills here were quite good.

After finishing their late-night snack, the two of them stood in front of the transparent glass wall. Hazel's eyes

were lazy, like a proud cat.

Looking at the multiple layers of different themed layouts outside, one can understand why so many people

cto AspenAkron every year to continuously work on poverty alleviation, but never achieve any results.

It was all here all along.

Suddenly, her eyes flickered, as she looked at the man standing in the corridor on the third floor, smoking. He

was wearing a silver-black half-mask, exuding an air of calmness.

Between inhaling and exhaling clouds of smoke, the other party

seemed to have noticed her gaze.

He looked towards the direction where Hazel was, but he was destined not to see her behind the glass.

But the man still raised his hand and gestured towards the direction where Hazel was, as if he knew someone

was watching him.

After finishing the meal, Jadon went to the bathroom to freshen up and changed into clean clothes. He was about

to send Hazel back when he realized that the office was empty, with no one in sight.

He called someone to ask and only then did he find out that Hazel had gone downstairs to play.

Did she... play?

Lost in thought, Jadon returned to the spot where she had just been standing, as if the faint scent of flowers still

lingered in the air around her.

He turned around and saw that the golden mask he had hung on the wall next to the door was gone.

Underneath the car repair shop, there lay a world of extravagance and opulence.

Each floor had different entertainment options, including casinos, clubs, fine wines, beautiful women, horse

racing, and billiards, among

others.

This is the hidden den of thieves in the darkness.

In just a breath’s time, speople lost everything they had, while others earned a fortune.

The sound of crying mixed with intermittent laughter, blended with the heavy beats of rock music, making

everyone's face here filled with

madness.

At this moment, Hazel wore Jadon’s golden mask and arrived at the floor where the man had been just now.

“Open! Open! Open!”

“You lucky brat, you have such good luck. You can win even with such difficult dice rolls. You must have a golden

destiny!”

The praised man had all his chips won by his side.

He had a lollipop in his mouth, with a sweet strawberry flavor that dispersed the lingering smell of tobacco on

him.

“Where, where, it was just good luck tonight.”

The man seemed to have been overwhelmed by tonight's good luck, as he went all in and bet all his chips.

“This kid's luck tonight is like a shining light. Everyone, quickly follow him and buy, success or failure depends on

this one move.”

“What if luck runs out? I'll bet half, | don’t want to go out later with nothing on.”

“Hahaha, makes sense, but I'm the kind of person who likes to take risks. | don’t believe | can’t turn the tables

tonight!”

The man’s eyes flickered with coldness upon hearing the noisy discussions around him.

His rough voice was very loud here, and he laughed loudly, saying, “Con, continue.”

Just then, a faint and elegant floral fragrance suddenly wafted from behind. The man, after pushing his chips

forward and retracting his hand,

paused for a moment.

The narrow and cold eyes behind the silver-black mask swept over in deep contemplation.

Hazel stood behind him, watching the chips that had just been pushed out onto the table, quietly standing

behind the man.

All attention was focused on the table, except for the man who slowed down his breathing rate and his attention

was constantly drawn to the floral scent coming from behind.

He seemingly casually picked up the lighter on the table, but in reality, through its smooth and shiny surface, he

saw the woman behind him wearing a golden mask.

Hazel did not miss his little actions.

As she walked over to the man just now, she saw the exact sswirl on top of his head as Leila’s. She didn’t

even need him to turn around to see his height and face, she already knew the identity of this man.

Leila, who was watching cartoons at home, suddenly sneezed.
