《Enthralled By Love》[XII]
Advertisement
"What are you doing?" Sunny was furious as she rushed over to the pair. She looked like a dragon who was about to spit fire.
Hanson let go of the woman in his arms. Although he was startled, he didn't look the slightest bit guilty. He knew for a fact that Sunny had always been obsessed with him. In fact, she was the one who had brought up the wedding. "Why are you here?"
"How could I not?" she snapped. A part of her wished that she could tear Hazel down with her own bare hands.
Having no intention to argue with Sunny, Hazel turned. "I'm going in." However, just as she was about to leave, Sunny caught her wrist. Turning her around, she slapped the woman hard on the face.
There was no way she was going to let the woman go! Especially after trying to seduce her husband! Sunny clenched her jaw as malicious thoughts filled her mind.
In the black Bentley, Zac glowered. His fists cracked at the sight, tearing through the dull silence in the car. Although Hazel deserved a lesson, he was the only one allowed to touch her or to even lecture her over what she had done. If anyone dared to hurt her, then they were about to face death himself.
Zac was about to open the door, but he stopped himself when Hazel raised her hand and slapped the woman back without fear.
Tears streamed down Sunny's face from the startling pain. She stumbled back. "Hazel, how dare you?" It was the first time she had ever been slapped.
Hazel snorted, "You may be rich and powerful, but the last thing I'll be is afraid of you! From now on, I'll repay you twice as hard for everything that you've done to me."
"You bitch!" Sunny raised her arm and was about to strike her, but Hanson held her back. "That's enough!" he roared.
"Didn't you see that she just slapped me?" Flushed red, she wanted to shake off his hold, only to find that he was too strong. "You were the one who hit her first," he said coldly, glancing apologetically at th
e woman in front of them.
"I have to go." Hazel had taken this chance to leave. It seemed that Sunny would always be a thorn on her side whenever she was with Hanson. If she ever got close to him, she would do everything to stab her back. A part of her wondered if it was worth it.

Seeing her leave, Hanson finally released the woman. Pissed off, Sunny stomped on the gravel. "I forbid you to see her again!" she shrieked out.
"Even if you forbid me to see her, do you honestly think you're the only woman in my life?" he said lightly. She gritted her teeth. "What do you mean?"
"Do you really think I wouldn't cheat on you?" A mocking smile slid into his lips, and it sent a chill down her spine.
All influential men have indulged themselves in the highest form of pleasure, and it seemed that Hanson was not an exception to all the temptation surrounding him.
"My father will not stand for it!" She had no choice but to use her father's name to suppress him. After all, given that the two families were business partners, he wouldn't dare try anything rashly.
Hanson snorted, "Where's your father now?" 'Who does she think her father is?' he thought.
He left with a cold smile, and Sunny was left alone in the cold night.
'As long as you aren't with Hazel, then it's fine.'
Finally, she took out her phone. "Billy, get some people for me."
She would never forgive the person who had hurt her!
It was late at night.
The noise finally faded away. It was replaced with crickets and chirps.
Since there weren't any direct bus to her apartment in the square, Hazel had no choice but to walk to her place from the nearest bus station.
During this period, she needed to cross a dark alley.
Both sides of the alley were shrouded in many trees. Since it was already late, there were almost no one around her.
A shiver shot down her spine. Feeling as if someone was following her, Hazel quickened her pace.
"Hey, girl, why are you alone? Do you need someone to stay with you?" Harsh laughter came from behind her.
Hazel froze. When she turned, she could see four obscene men gazing up and down at her figure lustfully. Sick smiles were imprinted on their faces.
She didn't take another second before she turned and ran. However, these men were quick. Soon enough, they already had her trapped around the middle.
"Look, if you want the money, here it is. Let me go." Her hand trembled as she stretched out her bag, believing that the men were wise enough to not get themselves into any more trouble.

The fat man smirked, looking her over. He wiped the saliva dripping from the corner of his lips. "Such a beauty," he slurred. "Boys, I think we got lucky tonight!" Besides, they were already paid. What he wanted to do was play with the woman in front of him.
When Hazel heard him, she got even more nervous. Knowing that she couldn't get rid of them with cash, she had to fight them off. She swung her bag towards the shortest and thinnest man. While he used his arms to cover his face, she used this opportunity to shove him down and ran to the other side of the alley.
There would be pedestrians who could see her if they ran after her.
Hazel gazed at the exit ahead, only to miss the stone that was blocking her way. She stumbled down, and her knees scraped against the gravel.
She struggled to stand up, but one of the men held her down. "Let's see where you can go now." He smiled lewdly.
The three men quickly stepped forward to hold her down. They cackled like a bunch of hyenas about to get some fresh meat. "Come on!" they yelled at their leader. They couldn't wait to get a taste of this.
With an obscene smile, the fat man began to unbuckle his belt.
Knowing that she couldn't get free from the tight hold, tears of despair streamed down her face. "Zac!" she sobbed out. She didn't know why he was the first person in her mind, but she yelled for him desperately.
Closing her eyes and readying herself for the worse, an angry fist broke through the helpless night. Billy, the fat man, groaned in pain as he fell onto the ground like a motionless pig.
Seeing this, the other three men let go of the girl and started to brandish their knives. Without another word, they rushed to the newcomer. They weren't any match for him. In just
a few strokes, all three of them fell to the ground as they searched for their knocked off teeth.
Hazel gazed at the man who had saved him. She squinted, not believing that it was actually Zac who came to save her. When his arms wrapped around her, she could smell his masculine scent wafting around her nose. "Zac," she sobbed. "You really came." She broke into tears.
Zac had been angry for several hours. He was like a volcano waiting to erupt, but as soon as he heard her calling his name, the anger on his face completely dissipated.
The fact that he was the first one she had called for and not Hanson, comforted him.
After they walked out of the alley, a man in black came over. In the moonlight, his handsome face and a bloodthirsty sneer hung on the corners of his mouth.
Soon enough, with a mix of butchered screams and heartfelt tears, four disabled eunuchs appeared at the other end of the street.
In the apartment.
Still suffering from the shock, Hazel found herself curling at the edge of the sofa, holding the small pillow in her arms.
Zac fetched the medicine box and began to clean the wounds on her knees.
"Why are you there?" she asked gently.
"I went for a walk." His tone was flat. What she didn't know was that he had followed her to the dark alley.
"Okay," she slowly answered. "Have you sent Mandy home?" She didn't even finish when a sharp pain came from her knee. Hazel groaned and winced at Zac's grip, but he quickly softened when he realized that he was hurting her. Every time the subject was brought up, he just couldn't help but be angry at her. He had already warned her, yet she was still careless as to set them up. The most hateful thing was that she left him to go on a date herself. The thought of her being with Hanson made his blood boil.
Hazel was aware that he was mad, but she still didn't know what had happened between them. She pursed her lips. "It's my fault that I didn't tell you in advance, but Mandy is a nice girl. You can at least try to get along with her."
The vein on his forehead bulged out and his eyes flashed. If it weren't for the injury that she had incurred, he would've twisted her over and spanked her. "It's none of your business."
She winced. "Okay fine." It seemed that helping him find a girl was a mistake.
Zac frowned. "Do you still remember my conditions?"
