CH. 1 (Betrayal)
A young man arrived at a restaurant with so much excitement, pushing through the double doors that led into the restaurant as he looked forward to an evening of pure bliss, a reminder of a journey that started on that same day two years ago with his beloved wife.It was the evening of his second wedding anniversary with Elina, and despite his humble means, Jonathan had made an attempt to make the evening memorable, reminding Elina that he valued her as his wife and was ready to do anything to make sure that the marriage stayed the way it was no matter the opposition that were thrown at him from Elina’s parents who never supported the marriage from the very beginning.But as he stepped through the door, his breath caught up in his throat, the bouquet of flowers he was holding, dropping from his hands at the sight before him.This was supposed to be a special evening for him and Elina, but to his surprise, every member of the Jackson’s family was present, a crowd he had never expected t

The Rise Of Jonathan Hazel CH. 54 (The kissing scandal)
The quiet hum of Jonathan’s office was interrupted by the sudden burst of the door flying open.Bernard stormed in without a word, his face flushed with urgency. He held a rolled-up newspaper in one hand, his jaw set, and his eyes blazing with something between anger and disbelief.Jonathan barely looked up from his computer. “Bernard what brings you here?” he asked dryly, not yet sensing the gravity of the situation.Bernard didn’t bother with pleasantries.With a swift motion, he slammed the paper down on the desk, the pages unfolding with a loud flap. “Explain this.”Jonathan blinked at the tabloid before him. The front page seemed to burn with color, shouting its scandalous message at the top of its lungs.There it was—an image captured in vivid detail: Elina leaning forward, kissing him at the café. Jonathan’s expression was halfway between confusion and resistance, but the frame caught the worst possible second. To an outsider, it looked intimate. Intentional.The headline screa

The Rise Of Jonathan Hazel CH. 53 (The Set-up kiss)
CHAPTER 53 Jonathan’s car pulled up to the quiet corner café, its windows fogged slightly from the chill of the morning. He stepped out, adjusting the collar of his coat, his eyes scanning the place warily. Something felt... off. The street was quiet, eerily so—no footsteps, no car horns, no idle chatter from passersby. Just silence and the low hum of wind rustling through leafless branches.He paused for a moment, studying the modest façade of the café. Pale sunlight glinted off the windows, but the interior was shadowed, still. It looked closed at first—until he saw her.Elina.She sat alone at the far end of the café, a porcelain cup cradled in both hands, steam long faded. Her posture was tense, too stiff to be casual. She was dressed simply, but there was an unnatural elegance in the way she sat—as if every movement was calculated.Jonathan pushed the door open. A tiny chime rang out, crisp and brittle like a bell in an empty church. He stepped in an

The Rise Of Jonathan Hazel CH. 51 (A surprise proposal)
CHAPTER 51The restaurant was bathed in the soft, golden glow of candlelight, its elegant chandeliers casting flickering reflections across polished silverware and crystal glasses. The air carried the delicate aroma of gourmet dishes, blending with the gentle hum of conversation and the occasional clink of cutlery against fine china. It was an intimate setting—one of warmth and understated luxury—perfect for an evening neither Jonathan nor Via would ever forget.Jonathan sat across from Via, his sharp navy-blue suit accentuating his composed demeanor, though his fingers betrayed his nervous anticipation as they subtly drummed against the table.

CHAPTER 50Elina sat in the dimly lit living room, her fingers curled tightly around the edge of the couch. The muted glow of the television flickered against the walls, but the images on the screen only added to the weight pressing against her chest. Beside her, her mother, Patricia, sat stiffly, her face pale and drawn as she watched the news unfold. It was a grim scene—headlines flashed across the screen, painting a sordid tale of betrayal and justice.Elina had tried to prepare herself for this moment, but no amount of preparation could soften the brutal truth.

Jonathan parked his car in front of his house, his mind still preoccupied with the IAS and the secrets that seemed to be buried beyond his reach. The weight of his father’s mysterious death, the hidden agendas surrounding Hazel Empire, and the silent war waged in the shadows gnawed at him. He knew he was on the verge of something huge, but at what cost?As he stepped inside, an unusual sight greeted him—his cousins, Ryan and Peter, sat in the living room, deep in conversation with a man he had never seen before. The air was thick with tension, and every instinct in Jonathan's body screamed that something was off.His eyes locked onto the stranger, who leaned back on the couch with an air of practiced ease, sipping what appeared to be whiskey from an expensive-looking glass.“Hey, guys. What's going on here?” Jonathan asked, his gaze shifting between his cousins and the man who had made himself at home in their house.Ryan barely spared him a glance, his expression unreadable, while Pe

Wanting answers, she mustered the courage to ask her mother the burning question that had been haunting her. Why had she heard her dad's voice on her phone?With a mix of concern and confusion, Elina looked into her mother's eyes, waiting for an explanation.

"Well, well, well, look who we have here," he said, his voice dripping with a mix of amusement and triumph. “You've finally found me, Jonathan."Jonathan's heart raced as he tried to process Jacob's words. "Found you? What are you talking about?" he asked, his voice filled with a mixture of confusion and apprehension.“Yes you have, you found a dead man.” Jacob said, a grin across his face.

Ryan's frustration was evident as he slammed his hand on the desk, expressing his anger over not being appointed chairman. "I can't believe this! How could they overlook me for the chairman position? I've worked so hard for this company, and they just brush me aside like that!" Peter tried to calm his brother down, speaking in a soothing tone.
