Hazel was worried; she didn't know what Marcus ordered; she didn't want him to go overboard just because he was angry, but one thing is for sure: Marcus is not a child; he knows when to call it a quit. Not long after all the food was delivered, Johnson kept his mouth shut. He wanted them to finish eating before he laughed at them. Selena's gaze was focused on Hazel and the food they just ordered; it looked expensive, and she wondered how they were going to pay, but it was none of her business since the bastard rejected Johnson's offer. They finished eating, and the bill was presented to Marcus.“Sir, your bill is $100,000. Are you paying with the cashless app or with your card?” Marcus gazed at the KAZ restaurant's attendance. He wanted to say something when Johnson burst into laughter.“I knew it; I knew he thought 10,000 dollars was for all the meals he ordered; he wants to explain himself now that after he has finished eating the food, you must pay for the meal.”Selena too star

Lady Charlotte ran into the compound, fear coursing through her entire being as if she were being chased by invisible demons, her heart pounding against her chest as sweat covered her face like someone running a marathon. Penelope's expression froze as he laid her eyes upon Lady Charlotte. She was not expecting to see her come to their house in this condition, and it was evident from the look on her face that something was wrong. Lady Charlotte quickly ran to Hazel and hugged her she was still breathing heavily.“My beloved granddaughter, you know grandma loves you. I'm so sorry. I was blinded by the words of that useless Jacob. It's confirmed now that you got us the contract.”Hazel frozen, She wasn't expecting any of this. How is that even possible? What could have made Lady Charlotte come to their house if she wanted to tell her this? She would have just called her to inform her, but why did she come by herself?“Mother, you said I was trying to defraud our family, but why the sud

Lady Charlotte raised her eyes a little. She thought Penelope had stopped this attitude of hers. This is the reason she doesn't like her. She never supported David getting married to this money-loving scavenger, but he didn't listen. Now that he's paying the price, she faces Hazel.“Do you want Wesley to transfer the amount to your mother's cashless account?”Hazel has no other choice; even if she refuses, she knows her mother will collect the money from her one way or another. She will look for a way to buy a thank-you gift for Marcus.“Yes, send it to her.” Marcus couldn't believe he totally forgot Penelope was with them; now Hazel wouldn't get a dime; it doesn't matter anyway; he had more than enough. Penelope's face was full of smiles; it seemed her prayers had been answered. Mr. Frank gifted her 60 thousand dollars, and now Lady Charlotte is also gifting her one million dollars. What more could she have asked for? Penelope opened her cashless app, and Wesley sent the money to he

He was about to walk towards Marcus when Lady Charlotte stepped in.“Where do you think you're going? go wait for me inside the taxi.” Wesley squeezed his fist as he glared at Marcus. He wouldn't mind whatever it was; he's going to teach Marcus a lesson for making a mockery of him.“You will hear from me soon.” Wesley angrily walked away and entered the taxi. Lady Charlotte gazes at Marcus with dead eyes. He knows he wants Wesley to lose his mind, and Hazel would see Wesley as the bad guy. She might not want to complete the contract with San Yellow Company, which would be a disaster. Lady Charlotte put on a fake smile on her face as she faced Hazel.“Don't worry, Hazel. I'm going to teach him manners when we get home.” Hazel nods. The situation is becoming awkward for Lady Charlotte; she must leave before they find out she is only pretending.“I will be taking my leave now, Hazel. I will call you if anything comes up. Please prepare yourself for the meeting.” Hazel nods. She kno

The principal then turned to see the direction Victoria pointed, and her eyes caught Marcus, Hazel, and Ivy. Hazel froze immediately. She heard what Victoria just said why would she demand for Ivy to be kicked out? She wanted to say something when the principal uttered.“Mrs. Victoria, what is the problem? Why do you want Little Ivy to get kicked out?” Victoria gazed at the principal; she couldn't believe she was asking her stupid, nonsense questions because of these poor rats. Maybe she has forgotten what she can do.“I don't need to explain anything to you; I want her kicked out of the school immediately.”“Mrs. Victoria, little Ivy, and your son are not in the same class; why would you–?”Victoria refused to let the principal finish her words.“You have five minutes to kick her out; don't make me repeat myself.” Hazel's heartbeat increased, wanting to hear what the principal would say at that moment. The principal didn't need to think twice, she utters.“Mrs. Victoria, I'm sorry,
