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?

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 became solemn 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 came from the door, interrupting the conversation inside the house.

“Let’s have something to eat first. I saw you didn’t eat anything all night while you were immersed in the laboratory. I prepared some late–night snacks for you.”

Two people pushing a food cart came in, 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.

Before, Ethan was keeping an eye on me in Canada. Now that I’m back in my home country, I have to accompany my daughter for meals, and we have regular three meals a day.

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