better than the all off rattled just Upon hearing her insinuating words, Miley’s expression turned sour, and she abruptly ended the conversation with a curt “I’m not really sure either.”
We all hung out in the same circle, and everyone was a people person.
Ada saw Miley’s current appearance and, recalling the words she had just said, she suddenly had some answers in her mind. “It was getting late, so I went to call Sandra downstairs to let her and Nathaniel get to know each other better, after all, they are going to spend their whole lives together in the future.”
She said goodbye to Hazel and Miley, turned around and walked towards the elevator.

As soon as she left, Miley’s inexplicable gaze was fixed on Hazel in front of her, speculating, “Are you Ethan’s benefactor?” Hazel intentionally gave her a “you know” look, with a gentle gaze towards Ethan, who was not far away at the refreshment table, getting snacks for her.
She said ambiguously, “He was good to me, I really liked him as… a family member.”
Family? Miley frowned.
What kind of family does a bastard like Ethan have? He should live in the sewer, barely surviving, and eventually rot and stink to death!
But she couldn’t let the woman in front of her know about Ethan’s relationship with the Hunter family yet, so that she could better extract information from her.
Miley smirked, “Is that so? Well, that’s great.”
“Ms. Robinson, to be honest, I knew Ethan’s mother. She would be very happy to see her son now having someone warm–hearted by his side. However, you mentioned transferring property earlier…”
She fell for it, just as expected.
Hazel pretended to look around, making sure that no one was nearby. She leaned in close and deliberately lowered her voice as she whispered to her, “I’m only telling you this, Mrs. Hunter can’t tell anyone else.”
Miley’s eyes flickered slightly, and she nodded.
And Hazel also experienced the joy of nonsense.
“In fact, I think Ethan’s father was quite unfair in this matter. Even if he doesn’t like the women at home, he shouldn’t…”
At this point, she deliberately paused for a moment.
It gave people the illusion of wanting to speak but not being able to, which triggered Miley’s emotions. She took a deep breath and restrained herself, saying, “What can’t I do?”
Hazel’s voice gradually softened.
Miley perked up her ears, afraid of missing any important information.
Although Ethan’s father got married to another woman, he never loved her. Even their intimate life was replaced by someone else in the dark, a fact that the woman was unaware of. Their child, you know, was conceived through artificial insemination. There was simply no emotional connection between the two of them.
She rambled on while observing Miley’s expression, noticing her clenched jaw, and continued with her additional remarks. “Before his father married that woman, he had already made a notarized document, leaving all his assets to Ethan, the child born out of love and his only cherished son.”
“But his father was also quite pitiful, having to face an unloved woman and a detested son every day. He lived a really suffocating life.” Hazel finally understood the charm of telling lies, especially when she saw Miley clearly angry but pretending to be fine.
There was a loud bang.
With the sound of pearls falling to the ground, Miley forcefully snapped the pearl bracelet

on her wrist.
She beckoned for a waiter to pick up the pearls while softly expressing concern for Miley. With her indifferent apricot eyes and perfunctory care, she exuded
a hint of rebellious arrogance, as if she were a seemingly glamorous but actually foolish fool.

“Mrs. Hunter, your wrist wasn’t injured, right? It’s all my fault for talking about old stories for no reason. You surely won’t hold it against me, will you?”
This sentence, just like what Miley said to Ethan earlier, was like a carbon copy, which directly made her so angry that she was about to explode.
‘Mrs. Hunter, rest assured, although I don’t know who his father is, even though Ethan used to have the surname Hunter, I believe his father definitely isn’t Mr. Hunter. It’s just gossip, just listen and don’t misunderstand, okay?”

Hazel coldly looked at Miley. If she had believed even a little bit of what she said, the seeds of suspicion would have been planted in her heart. At that time, whenever Tyree did anything that deviated from her expectations, she would come back to doubt his intentions and motives.
In a dog–eat–dog world, no one could expect to have it easy!
“It’s okay, of course I won’t mind. This bracelet is of poor quality, so it can be considered as a reference for Ms. Robinson. It’s better not to buy jewelry from this brand in the future, as wearing it is quite frustrating.”

She pretended not to have heard Miley’s words and immediately recognized the identity of the wealthy lady with a not–so–good expression on her face as she walked over. A smile flashed in her eyes instantly.
I was really sleepy, and someone handed me a pillow.
Isn’t the pale–faced wealthy lady in front of us the owner of Miley’s bracelet brand?
According to their overwhelming promotion on the internet, this bracelet symbolized her pure and flawless love, and they claimed that the thread inside was made by a certain century–old brand, just like her and her husband’s indestructible love.
Now, it’s all gone, destroyed by Miley.
“Sister Xu, you came just in time. Mrs. Hunter kindly reminded me earlier that we should not buy jewelry from this brand in the future. She said the quality is not good. Just now, it broke on its own. It’s a pity because the pearl’s color looks quite good and it complements the skin tone nicely.”
Hazel exclaimed and her gaze fell on Mrs. Fu’s wrist.
“Sister Xu’s bracelet looks similar to Mrs. Hunter’s, but it seems to be of better quality. It shouldn’t be the same brand, right?”
Hazel said both good and bad things.
Finally, she added, “She doesn’t pay much attention to jewelry brands, but she thought Miley looked beautiful wearing this bracelet and wanted to buy it as a gift for a friend. However, she didn’t expect the quality to be so poor.”
Silence was the native language of tonight.
Miley looked at the rich lady awkwardly and was about to explain that she was the one who gave her the bracelet when she was interrupted.
Nathaniel came over and asked her to go with him.
“Mom, Dad said, let’s go and have a chat together.”
Although he was talking to Miley, his eyes kept falling on Hazel’s face and shoulders, which appeared dazzlingly white under the lights. Hazel ran her fingers through her hair and smiled gracefully at him, her gaze shifting past him to Sandra stepping out of the elevator. It seems that they were planning to announce the engagement of the Strickland family and the Hunter family right at the beginning of the banquet, which was a bit too eager.
Nathaniel was obsessed with her exquisite and outstanding appearance, as well as her perfect figure that was so beautiful that no adjective could describe it. In his eyes, Hazel, who was stunning at first sight, had much
charm than Sandra.

The man’s eyes were filled with undisguised infatuation, while Hazel averted her gaze, hiding her disgust. She smiled at Ethan, who was not far away.
‘Sorry, I went first.”
Miley hesitated to speak to the wealthy lady.
Nathaniel clenched his fist as he watched Hazel walk away, making a firm decision in his heart: How could a beauty like her be matched with a
bastard like Ethan?
She should have been the one in the palm of his hand… a plaything!
