Chapter141.

The rooftop of the Campbell Group was one of the best places in Seattle to enjoy the sunset.

At that moment, the afterglow behind Gabriel bathed the sky, as if casting a mysterious and brilliant halo around him.

Hazel’s gaze fell on the clouds tinged with orange–red, and she continued, “Even if you kneel and apologize now, telling me that you still love me, I wouldn’t feel any joy. “Reality is not like a novel. We ended completely two years ago. Our relationship now is… the parents of our children who are raising them together. I hope you can recognize that.

“When you’re able to talk to me rationally about the custody of the children, we will go on.”

Hazel, at this point, didn’t need any affection from Gabriel.

She smashed the glass door with a fire extinguisher, leaving him with nothing but the cold back of her as she walked into the elevator lobby.

Around the corner, in a blind spot…

A woman in a red dress had hate flickering in her eyes. In a corner where no one could see, her lips curled into a sinister smile, sending chills down one’s spine.

Seeing Gabriel standing silently, the woman wiped her face of all emotion, lightly walking over to him. In a soft voice, she said, “Mr. Campbell, Ms. Robinson might just be in a bad mood today.”

The strong scent of perfume reached him, and Gabriel frowned, moving to the other side.

“Ms. Morris, clean this up.”

Emma Morris was another of Gabriel’s secretaries.

Ezra handled external affairs and attended business trips and banquets, while she was mainly responsible for internal communication within the company.

It was Emma who had suggested using Hazel’s favorite roses to smooth things over.

The rooftop fell silent again.

Emma watched her reflection in the glass door, a smug smile curling on her lips.

Making such a grand gesture when his ex–wife hadn’t forgiven him would only push the woman further away.

And that was exactly the result she wanted.

Emma thought of Gianna, that fool, and sneered disdainfully.

When Gabriel had instructed several times to thoroughly investigate Gianna, it had been she who altered the final investigative data, blocking any potential exposure. Yet, this idiot was still useless.

Since Gianna couldn’t be relied on, she would have to take matters into her own hands.

When Hazel returned to the underground parking lot, she received a message from her lawyer.

He explained Ezra’s actions and requests briefly and stated that if she didn’t reply within five minutes, he would call the police.
