Chapter 3 It Was Just a Meal 

When Hazel noticed Joshua’s unwillingness, her heart sank, and she wanted to leave with Leila immediately. 

axon’s eyes were filled with reluctance as he looked at Leila. He really liked Leila. After all, Leila was very cute and would give him candie 

He secretly glanced at Hazel, wanting to speak but not daring to. He lowered his head in disappointment and couldn’t help but think in his heart, “Is it because Mom has a cure daughter that she doesn’t want me and Joshua anymore? 

Joshua and I are also good boys.” 

Gabriel saw the reluctance 

Hazel, let’s talk.” 

in Jaxon’s eyes and called out 

stop Hazel. 

But Hazel shook her head and refused, “We have nothing to talk about. My husband will be back soon. So, you guys, please leave as soon as possible.” 

Gabriel frowned instantly, and his face darkened. He stared at Hazel’s indifferent face, the muscles in his jaw tensed. 

“Hazel, you really can’t live without men, can you? 

“Back then, you broke up with your first love and then immediately married me. After divorcing me, you quickly remarried. Now, you even have a daughter with him. I’m really impressed by your time management!” 

Hearing Gabriel’s remark, Hazel felt the anger surge in her heart. But she forcefully suppressed the fluctuating emotions and calmed replied, “So what?” 

She didn’t want to talk to him anymore, afraid of losing control of her emotions, so she urged, “We had an agreement last night. I kept you here for one night. Now, please take your sons and leave my house.” 

Gabriel clenched his teeth and growled, “Hazel! Jaxon and Joshua are also your children! Just because you have a daughter, you want to ditch your own sons?” 

As the atmosphere between them grew tenser, Ezra quickly stepped forward and explained to Hazel, saying that the roads were flooded, so they couldn’t leave the village even if they wanted 

[O. 

But Hazel said coldly, “That’s your problem, not mine. 

“Mr. Nelson, take your boss and leave, or I will call the police.” 

Just then, her friend called. The coldness between her eyebrows instantly disappeared, and her voice softened she spoke to the person on the other end of the phone. 

“Babe, when will you come back? 

“Of course, I miss you. Leila misses you too. Alright, I will have someone pick you up then.” 

This gentle Hazel was completely different from the arrogant and domineering person just now. 

Hatred and pain overwhelmed Gabriel’s mind when he saw this. His body swayed, and he felt that the world in front of his eyes had instantly turned pitch black. 

The next second, Gabriel directly passed out from a high fever! 

Campbell! Ezra suddenly exclaimed. 

He then explained to Hazel, “Recently, due to the matter of the Redwood Resort, Mr. Campbell has been extremely busy. He barely had time to rest. A few days ago, he started having health issues. And yesterday, because Mr. Jaxon and Mr. Joshua had a fever, he stayed up all night. That’s why…” 

When Hazel heard Exra mention Redwood Resort, a sharp gleam flashed across her eyes. It turned out that the competitor John talked about was actually the Campbell Group. After a while, Gabriel lay on the bed in the guest room, wearing the pajamas that Ezra had just changed for him. Now, Gabriel had a pale face, and Hazel had never seen him being so weak before. 

After the examination, Ezra fed Gabriel the medicine. Looking at Gabriel’s pale face, Hazel 

puldn’t bring herself to drive them away on a rainy day. 

She sighed and said, “Just stay for now.” 

Ezra’s eyes lit up, and he immediately nodded repeatedly. 

and frowned slightly. 

Gabriel slept for a long time. He didn’t wake up until the middle of the night. After opening his eyes again, he found himself in the guest room Ezra, who heard the noise, quickly got up from the folding bed. 

“Mr. Campbell, you finally woke up!” 

“Where are Jaxon and Joshua?” Gabriel asked. 

“They’re sleeping in the children’s room 

“What about her?”

floor,” Ezra replied. 

“Mrs. Campbell is having a rest with her daughter.” 

“Don’t call her Mrs. Campbell. She doesn’t deserve it.” 

Gabriel felt weak in his body, and he didn’t have the energy to think about Ezra’s words. It had been a long time since he last fell ill. This time, when illness struck, it hit him like a disaster, leaving him with a kind of weakness that drained his body. 

Ezra quickly helped him up and said, “Mr. Campbell, there’s a bowl of cereal in the kitchen. D you want to eat it now?” 

Apart from breakfast, Gabriel didn’t eat anything all day. And now, he was indeed very hungry, After finishing his meal, he went upstairs to see Jaxon and Joshua. The room door was not tightly closed, and with the help of the dim light in the corridor, Gabriel could see the two boys lying on the bed. 

The two boys slept in the children’s room, which should have been prepared by Hazel for her daughter. The space was spacious, and the bed was very comfortable. Each of the boys held a huge stuffed toy and slept soundly. 

The room opposite the children’s room was Hazel’s bedroom. 

The door was also not closed tightly. 

Remembering that Hazel had already remarried and had a daughter, Gabriel clenched his fist and then left with a long face. 

relaxed her stiff body 

Mer Gabriel left, Hazel opened her eyes and slowly relaxed. 

The next morning…. 

Leila was still asleep, so Hazel, who had a restless night, decided to go downstairs and make some 

coffee first. 

She opened the master bedroom’s surveillance on her phone, occasionally looking at Leila on the bed through the screen, 

After spending two days with Leila, Jaxon liked her more and more. On the other hand, although Joshua still felt a bit uncomfortable in his heart, his heart was also melted by her cuteness. 

The two of them secretly came to Hazel’s bedroom and quietly stood by Leila’s bed, waiting for her to wake up. 

Ezra had already woken up. 

As soon as he opened the door, he smelled the aroma of coffee. When he saw that Hazel was brewing coffee, he couldn’t help but ask if he could have some later. 

After Gabriel changed his clothes and came out, he saw Ezra and Hazel drinking coffee. Ezra chuckled and said to Gabriel, “Mr. Campbell, Mrs. Campbell’s coffee is truly the best coffee I have ever tasted. It’s so aromatic and mellow.” 

Hearing this, Gabriel glanced at the two of them and calmly said, “Oh, really? But it’s just some coffee, isn’t it?” 

Ezra’s heart skipped a beat due to nervousness. He quickly finished his coffee and said, “M Campbell, I’m going to check the situation outside.” 

Today’s rain was much smaller than the previous two days, but the weather forecast showed that the rain would continue for the next few days. 

As long as the Tappan Zee Bridge was still flooded, they couldn’t leave the village. Gabriel had extraordinarily handsome features, but now, his face showed a hint of paleness. However, his back was still straight, and his refinement still made him look noble and elegant. Gabriel walked up to Hazel and looked at the coffee cup in her hand, sarcastically saying, “We’ve been married for five years. But I didn’t know you could make coffee until just now Hazel was looking down at the surveillance on her phone. She noticed that Leila had already woken up. 

Leila was grabbing Jaxon’s and Joshua’s fingers with her chubby little hands, giggling. She even warmly invited the two little boys to sleep together on her bed. 

Upon hearing Gabriel’s words, Hazel turned around and snorted, “It seems that I don’t need your to know that either.” 

Through the corners of her eyes, Hazel noticed through the screen that without any adults. around, Joshua didn’t dislike Leila that much. He even took out his favorite Transformers for Leila to play with. 

Putting down the coffee, Hazel turned around and was about to go upstairs. But Gabriel suddenly grabbed her wrist. His body temperature was still slightly high after the fever. At this moment, he questioned Hazel, “Hazel, don’t you feel guilty when you see your two sons? 

You’ve disappeared for over two years. When you hold your daughter, did you also remembe hear you were also Jaxon and Joshua’s mother? 

“They are just six–year–old children. Have you ever thought that they ale need motherly for More than twenty years ago, the Robinson family was also a prominent family, and they had a close relationship with the Campbell family. After Hazel was born, she was betrothed to Cabriel. Later, the Robinson family went bankrupt and moved out of the neighborhood, causing delay in Hazel and Gabriel’s engagement. 

en Hazel turned eighteen, Gabriel’s father, Andrew Campbell, found her. Though she was still studying at a university in Seattle at that time, she and Gabriel still got engaged. After she graduated, they got married and had babies.

Why should I feel guilty? The one who should feel guilty is you! Gabriel, when you were having an affair with the other woman, didn’t you ever think that you were also the father of two boys?” 

But Gabriel frowned and growled, “You’re really unreasonable! It was just a meal! Why do you keep mentioning it?” 

Hearing this, Hazel suppressed the urge to roll her eyes, snorting in her heart, “Even now, he still prioritizes his beloved!” 

Gabriel’s eyes darkened as he snapped, “Hazel, Gianna is not the kind of woman you think she is I can
