Chapter161.

Hazel had complicated feelings toward Sebastian.

No matter what had happened, they had once been best friends. She gave him a nod in acknowledgment.

Hidden Bites, Sebastian hadn’t seen her again.

Remembering how he had just told someone the night before that he missed her, only to leave Seattle the next day, he quickly explained, “My grandma fell ill. Right after dinner that night, I rushed back to Los Angeles.”

He hadn’t intended to leave without a word, but the biggest reason was that he didn’t have her number.

Gabriel’s sharp gaze lingered on the two of them, his guard instantly up. Sebastian greeted him first.“Mr. Campbell, we meet again.”

Gabriel’s tone was indifferent.“Mm.”

His cold eyes barely skimmed over Hazel before he turned to Sebastian.“Move.”

Sebastian stepped aside.

Gabriel strode out of the elevator with his two assistants, heading straight for his room. Hazel hadn’t brought any other assistants along, just Johnson.
