From Secret Wife 343
Chapter 343 Worth, Immeasurable
"You seemed to have become a different person."
Jadon's comment elicited a soft laugh from Hazel.
She took out a mirror from the drawer and handed it to him, indicating for him to take a look at his neck.
Meny
The man, upon seeing himself in the mirror, noticed that the foundation he had used to conceal the scars on his neck had been wiped off by Hazel's fingertips. His face suddenly changed color, and he finally understood the reason behind her abrupt action just now.
Hazel grabbed a wet tissue from the side and carefully wiped the fingers that had just grazed Jadon's cheek, her voice cold and powerful.
"Did you also receive the thing that Laura mentioned?"
The wound on his neck, obviously caused by a knife or a gun, although the marks have become very faint and have been covered with foundation, judging from the traces she just felt with her fingertips, the wound was quite wide.
Seeing the frozen smile at the corner of the man's eyes, Hazel directly exposed his recent evasiveness. She continued, "You have been hiding here and there lately, is it also to avoid being chased by these people?"
The surveillance video on the wall has completely gone black.
The sounds outside the door were no longer audible, and Jadon had the illusion of an eagle being pecked in the eye by a chick.
He curled up the corners of his mouth and said, "Since you've already noticed, I won't pretend anymore."
Jadon: "Yes, I also received it."
He informed Hazel about the arrangement of her grandfather Marlon as a secret assassin, confessing everything to her. At the same time, he also mentioned that he and several other people downstairs had already received the first warning. This was also the reason why they were so eager to help her seek revenge. Hazel found it a bit funny and asked Jadon, "It's strange, why do you all think I wanted revenge?"
Her mother spent so much time raising her, even going so far as to change her appearance, not for the purpose of seeking revenge.
The man
"Don't y
any
was stunned by her question.
you want revenge? The people of Northfield, the Scott family, they bullied the
Fowler family and your mother so much, don't you feel hatred?"
She looked at him and said, "No."
Jadon:
He really didn't expect that Hazel would have such
an
idea.
"Hazel, your grandfather gave you too much, and no one could resist the changes that come with such wealth and status."
He confessed, "This is human nature."
Jadon inherited a portion of the power given to him by Marlon from the person who adopted him, and learned about the things concerning the Fowler family.
As the man's voice faded away, there was a long-lasting silence in the study.
The tea in front of Hazel had already cooled down. She glanced at the burning sandalwood next to her, then looked at the clock on the wall behind him. She silently counted in her mind, waiting patiently for Jadon's reaction.
"You..."
He felt his strength slowly fading away, and everything went black. When Jadon woke up again, he was already in the basement.
There were five people neatly tied to chairs around me.
Garrett sneered, "Traitor!"
Others looked at him, clearly doubting his attitude.
"..." Jadon didn't know what to say for a moment.
If I were really a traitor, I wouldn't be staying in the same place with them now,
and I wouldn't be tied up and bound, not knowing what

material these ropes are made of, and surprisingly, the more I struggle, the tighter they become.noveldrama
These people are indeed as Hazel said, not only young in age but also terrifyingly foolish.
At the same moment, Laura, standing in the garden of a detached villa, watched Hazel slowly watering the plants with a hose in her hand, feeling confused and not understanding why she had spared herself.
Laura asked her, "Why?"
The gaze behind her followed her like a shadow. Hazel turned off the tap and turned around, meeting her eyes. "Because you... are real."
Having seen all kinds of strange and eccentric characters in the entertainment industry, who spoke in a way that suited their own interests, Laura was taken aback when she heard someone describe themselves in such a manner.
"You are the first person to say that to me."
Merus
The most common words she heard on a daily basis were snobbish, vanity- driven, and ruthless in achieving goals, and no one had ever spoken to her truthfully. This made her feel as if her heart had been struck.
The woman in front of me, though a few years younger than her, exuded a power that was admirable and commanding.
Laura's gaze instantly changed.
"You were very smart."
Noticing the change in the other person's attitude, a hint of a smile rippled in
those clear and cold eyes, and Hazel smirked, "So are you."
Returned to the study.
Hazel and Laura sat face to face.
The person who had gotten off the car earlier with a disdainful expression on their face, now looked at her with a serious gaze. They took out a USB flash drive from their expensive handbag and pushed it towards Hazel on the table.
"Everything that Mr. Fowler handed over to my mother is here, and I can return all of these belongings to you whenever you want."
Laura changed her attitude and spoke respectfully, "Mr. Fowler has been very kind to my mother. If there is anything I can do to repay him in the future, I am obliged
to do so. However, please spare my mother."
After a while, Laura was the first to leave by car.
Hazel looked through the various forces in the computer and, upon seeing the identities of those people, discovered that they had actually infiltrated so many circles, and their achievements surpassed those of the past.
Hazel only truly realized the extent of her grandfather's abilities as she slowly opened the treasures he had left for her.
It's just a pity...
Nothing compared to the presence of his grandmother, as far as he was concerned.
The first person to be brought up from the basement was the oldest Bernard. Whenever he thought about being treated in such a way at his age, he felt an indescribable anger in his heart.
"Even though we were doing the work of becoming monks, it was really good that there was no credit but there was hard work. Are you being too arbitrary and reckless in treating us like this?"
Hazel had little patience for these men and bluntly pointed out their greed.
She coldly said, "When you touched me, did you ever think about whether you were acting recklessly?"
Just yesterday, Johnson learned from Tabitha in Los Angeles that Bernard had been secretly investigating the identities of Leo and Johnson. Upon learning this, Tabitha immediately ordered the news to be blocked as Bernard is her own great- grandson.
At the same time, Leo, who was about to board the plane to go abroad, was reminded, which prevented Leo from being caught, and now he has safely arrived at Safety Island.
The man seemed to not have expected that she would discover these things. A trace of guilt flashed in his eyes, and he also became a little more wary of her abilities.
A thick stack of documents fell in front of Bernard.
Hazel presented the evidence of Bernard's illegal activities over the years, and the scales of interest grew heavier and heavier, causing an increasing amount of panic within him.

Underestimating the enemy was a common problem among these people.
Especially when the opponent is of the opposite sex and much younger than them, their sense of self-importance can even reach its peak. Hazel happened to have both.
When she reclaimed the properties and assets related to the Fowler family from these people, she realized that her worth had reached an immeasurable height.
