Hazel held her hand, silently offering her support.
Lucia composed herself and gave her a reassuring glance.

She looked into Alfred’s eyes and said, “Mr. Sanford, I’m inexperienced since it’s my first time getting married. I didn’t know that marrying you also meant accepting your little mistress as part of the deal. Next time, I’ll make sure to make everything clear before I get married.”

Her words instantly silenced the hall.
Even Elizabeth, who had been pushed aside by Alfred, was stunned. She blankly looked at the man beside her, who was nearly fuming and felt a little scared.
Alfred’s eyes turned red with anger.” “Lucia!”
With the affection in her heart now gone, Lucia’s confidence returned to her.
The marriage was originally meant to unite the two families, but on the second day after the wedding, Alfred dared to protect another woman

Elizabeth regained her senses and was about to fan the flames when Hazel’s cold gaze landed on her face, sending a chill down her spine.
Since Alfred had thoughts of blacklisting Lucia for Elizabeth, Hazel could just as easily blacklist Elizabeth for Lucia.
Spending money to swap actresses?
Let’s see if their movie even got released after filming.
Hazel took Lucia and left the banquet hall. Recently, she had been at odds with banquets, always encountering some troublemakers.
“Ms. Robinson is really something! She actually dared to challenge Alfred. My husband wouldn’t even dare to do that.”
“Who wouldn’t dare when she’s got a powerhouse lab backing her up? The country’s heavily promoting research now, and her lab’s work fits the development direction, so she must have confidence.”
“Ugh, I should’ve gotten to know her earlier.”
Watching their graceful figures and hearing the surrounding praises for Hazel’s powerful aura, Emma felt a pang of discomfort.
She smiled sweetly and helped Elizabeth up from the floor, adding fuel to her hatred for Lucia with a few words.
Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, she quietly slipped back into the crowd, unaware that everything had been seen by Gabriel, whose cold eyes showed his displeasure.
Alfred hadn’t expected Lucia to act so decisively.
The woman he loved was clearly Elizabeth’s sister, Kirsten, but hearing Lucia’s words just now made his chest ache as if a wound had been reopened.
Since Lucia’s chauffeur–driven car was parked at the hotel entrance, Hazel had the driver bring the car to the front ahead of time.
However, just as they were about to leave the hotel, they saw Vivian, who shouldn’t have been there. As soon as she spotted them, she charged over like a hungry wolf seeing meat, holding her phone and cursing loudly.
Hazel patted Lucia’s arm and advised, “Lucia, get in the car and leave first.”

reassured her that she had bodyguards with her and that Vivian posed no real threat to her.
After some persuasion, Lucia got into the car and left first.

This woman had so much money, yet she only gave Vivian a tiny compensation when she fired her. What a miser!
Thinking about the money promised by the person behind her, Vivian hurriedly rushed over, full of energy, and shouted, “I finally found you!”
But as soon as she charged over, a bodyguard grabbed her phone and blocked the camera. The viewers in the livestream could only see blackness, but they could hear Hazel telling the bodyguard coldly to call the police.
Her voice was devoid of emotion.
The next second, the livestream was cut off.
Unable to reclaim her phone, Vivian immediately threw herself to the ground, throwing a tantrum, obsessing over the 30 thousand dollars promised by the person behind her.
With that money, she could buy a house for her son in the county!
“You ungrateful bastard! The people in our village took you in out of kindness, and now you’re scheming for our land! Shameless!”
No matter how much Vivian cried, cursed, or threw herself around, Hazel didn’t respond.
She didn’t leave immediately either.
The fact that someone had brought Vivian all the way from Nyack to Seattle to continue slandering her showed just how deep the hatred was.
Hazel had been busy with lab work and didn’t have the energy to deal with these matters, but today, Alfred’s actions had sparked her anger, and Vivian just happened to show up at this time.
So, they didn’t want her to have it easy, right? Well, just wait and see who breaks first.

However, Hazel’s silence was seen by Vivian as guilt, and the smugness in her eyes grew. She didn’t dare push the strong bodyguard but thought she could grab Hazel’s strapless dress and embarrass her in front of everyone.
But before she could get close to Hazel, a group of policemen arrived.

William drove up in a very flashy sports car, a stark contrast to his serious lawyer persona. He adjusted his suit, looking like he had thrown it on
in a rush.
When he wasn’t working, he was the typical playboy image, but once he was on the job, he became the stern, no–nonsense lawyer known in the industry.
“Ms. Robinson, leave this to me.”
Seeing Hazel about to leave, Vivian wasn’t willing to let her go and quickly rushed over, trying to grab her hand.
“You can’t leave!”
Hazel looked at Vivian’s greedy expression, and her eyes flashed with impatience.
Did she really think everyone else was a fool?
“Stop trying to cause trouble for me and think about how you’re going to handle your son’s illegal hunting of wild animals.”
Hazel said in a cold voice, avoiding her grasp.
At the mention of her son, Vivian’s eyes flickered with panic. But she still pretended not to understand, standing up and scolding, “Illegal hunting? Don’t talk nonsense, or I’ll tear your mouth off!”
She thought all she had to do was stop Hazel from speaking, not realizing that Hazel had prepared all the information.
All the evidence was solid. It was just a matter of sending it to the police officers.
Seeing the mocking curve on Hazel’s lips, Vivian trembled. All those activities were done secretly by her son at night. How could this bitch

her mind was elsewhere. Finally, she tripped and fell, chair and all.
The solemn and oppressive atmosphere in the police station only made Vivian feel more uneasy. But she knew that no matter what, she couldn’t let Hazel leave so easily.
Otherwise, how would she get the remaining 30 thousand dollars?
Her precious son’s house was already picked out, and he was just waiting for the money to pay for it!
Vivian made her final move.
She shouted at Hazel, who was about to leave, “Hazel, do you dare to tell the man who appeared in Nyack last time that your daughter is his child?”
Outside, the man in the black suit froze in his tracks.
