Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband by Paga Slayer

Chapter 299 Moans Of Ecstasy

As Hazel arrived at the Montecarlo Manor, Camille and Aria rushed to greet her. Camille gently guided her inside, and as she stepped into the warmth of the manor, Hazel felt a wave of relief wash over her, the cold finally leaving her body. Aria quickly brought a cup of warm milk, and Camille ordered the servants to prepare the dining table for her daughter-in-law.

Watching Hazel's face closely, Camille, with the instinct of a mother, could tell that she was famished, and her heart ached for her pregnant daughter-in-law. She insisted that Hazel come directly to the dining table, urging her to eat. Though Hazel protested, saying she could feed herself, Camille wouldn't hear of it. She wanted to take this moment to show Hazel the love and care she had longed to give. Aria remained by Hazel's side throughout the meal, chatting with her, offering gentle distractions, and helping her forget the disturbing memories of what had happened earlier.

Hazel looked at her mother-in-law and sister-in-law, feeling her heart warm with their love and care. She couldn't help but compare it to her own family, who had never shown her this kind of affection. She had always believed her life would be a living hell, like her sisters'- trapped in marriages to wealthy men who treated them as nothing more than business transactions, using them for their own benefit. And while her husband had another woman in his life and often seemed indifferent to her, her life in his house was not as miserable as she had once feared.

What she hadn't expected was the genuine love and tenderness of her mother-in-law and sister-in-law. They were the kindest people she had ever known.

"I'm sorry, Mother. I made you worry," Hazel murmured, holding Camille's hand and pressing it gently to her chest as her eyes welled up with tears.

Camille smiled softly, wiping Hazel's cheeks. "No, my child. A mother is always worried for her children. You are my daughter, just like Adeline," she said, her voice full of warmth. "Now, eat properly, and remember, this is your home. We are your family. We will always take care of you."

Hazel nodded, her heart swelling with emotion as she ate quietly, feeling the genuine love surrounding her. Aria, seeing her sister-in-law's vulnerability, wrapped an arm around Hazel's shoulders, giving her a comforting side hug. It was a small gesture, but it meant the world to Hazel. Despite everything, Hazel couldn't shake off the constant insults from her husband's mistress and the pitying glances from people who knew she was just a wife in name. Chloe paraded herself around with the Duke, flaunting their relationship at every opportunity, making it painfully obvious that Hazel's position in the marriage was a mere formality. However, Hazel had known this arrangement from the start. She knew the Duke had no love for her, that he married her out of obligation to the state and his need for an heir. What made it worse was Chloe's cruelty. She'd done everything she could to harm Hazel and her unborn child, even going as far as trying to have her pushed down the stairs. The fall was meant to end Hazel's pregnancy or worse-take her life-but fate had other plans. Chloe slipped instead while trying to hurt Hazel, and the tables turned.

Hazel knew that if she told Alexander the truth that it was his little mistress who was the real culprit, and she, Hazel, was the victim - he would never believe her. He was too blinded by his feelings for Chloe, and she couldn't bring herself to waste her breath. After all, Alexander had even allowed Chloe to stay at their manor when she faked being sick and alone. It was clear he trusted her more than his own wife. There was no point in trying to explain any of it to him.

After dinner, Hazel went to her room to change into more comfortable clothes as she slipped into her nightgown. Just a few minutes later, the door to her room opened, and Alexander stepped inside, closing it softly behind him.

He walked over to the bed, but Hazel, who had been lying down, quickly sat up at his presence.
