Chapter 17: Figure out your identity
Hazel's clothes were wet, and she felt very uncomfortable wearing them. She took a set of clothes and went into the bathroom to change, cursing silently how despicable Jack was. He had saved her but almost made her fall again. He was just too wicked!
When she came out after changing her clothes, Richard asked Jack unwillingly, "Do we really have to go back? I don't want to go back. Grandpa has already agreed."
"Your grandmother wants you to go back," Jack said expressionlessly.
"But I don't want to," Richard frowned. "Grandma knows i'm here. You adult don't keep your promises." He had thought he could stay here today and was very happy about it. Now he was disappointed and unhappy.
Jack sneered. "There are many things in this world that you can't just decide not to do. Do you understand?"
Richard pouted, "I'm not going back anyway. Grandpa has promised, and the beauty has promised. "I'm going to sleep with beauty tonight. She smells so good!" He climbed onto the master bed agilely, pulled up the quilt, and covered himself tightly, as if he could really stay here forever.
Beauty?
Jack frowned and looked at Hazel standing at the bathroom door, sneering mockingly.
Hazel felt embarrassed.
"Richard" Jack withdrew his gaze. "you have one minute to put on your shoes!"
"I'm not leaving!" Richard was actually a little afraid of Jack, but suddenly became rebellious today.
Seeing Jack's ugly face and then looking at Richard., Hazel thought for a moment and said, "Why don't we let him stay tonight and have someone from the family come to pick him up tomorrow?'
Richard straightened his back when he heard someone supporting him.
Jack gave Hazel a cold glance and sneered."Hazel, first figure out your identity!"
Hazel was stunned and couldn't say anything. He was right she couldn't interfere in his family affairs.
In the end, Richard was taken away by Jack. she didn't stop him anymore.
The next day, when she arrived at Global, Hazel was given a glorious and arduous task- cleaning the CEO dedicated floor.
"Hazel, you're new here, and there's no avoiding this kind of thing. When I first came here, I was also sent to clean the CEO office. I cleaned it for three months, and I was nervous everyday,"Martha patted her chest.
"Although the CEO is very handsome, his personality is.... hard to describe. I heard that someone accidentally broke one of the CEO;s photo frame before and was fired. Also, a colleague who looked pretty good before, thought too much of herself and volunteered to clean the CEO's dedicated floor. hen she went there, she did meet the CEO, but because her clothes had a low neckline, she was fired. So now, when everyone hears that they have to clean the CEO's office, they are all scared. We used to take turns but now you are a newcomer." You just need to be a little careful," Martha finished.
Seeing the serious expression on Hazel's face and thinking she was afraid of not doing a good job and loosing her job. She kindly comforted her, "I'm only saying this to ask you to be more careful. Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Think positively, if you can see the president and enjoy his beauty, that's not and either. The president is said to be unmarried, and you're so beautiful, what if he likes you?"
Hazel thought yo herself, what kind of expression would Martha have if she told her she was Jack's wife?
Finally. she took her tools and went to Jack's exclusive floor.
Jack's office was on the top floor of Global building in the middle.
After taking the elevator to the thirty-eight floor, just as she stepped out of the elevator, a woman in a professional suit came out of the secretary's office. When she saw Hazel, her eyes lit up. "Hazel?" looking at Susan, Hazel felt a bit embarrassed. She pursed her lips and forced a smile, "Hello, sister Susan." It had been a few years since they last met, and Susan had become more elegant.
Susan looked at Hazel's work clothes and couldn't help but be surprised. "what happened to you?"
Hazel gritted her teeth. "It's a long story."
Susan didn't ask any further and nodded. "Okay, it's been a long time. let's catch up later. I'm busy today, so if you...."
She glanced in the direction of the president's office and thought for a moment before speaking,"The president is in an early meeting and can't stand even a speck of dust. Please be careful. also try not to touch anything on his desk."
"I'll remember. Thank you, sister Susan."
"Then you go ahead and get busy."
Hazel carried her things into Jack's office, feeling a bit emotional. She had been Global before, two or three times. After a moment of emotion, she quickly got to work. she wanted to leave before Jack came back from his meeting.
Her family background was good, but she had been taking care of herself while abroad all these years, so naturally she could handle things like cleaning. She quickly wiped the dust off the office and went to tidy up his desk.
At that moment, her phone rang and it was her father calling.
"Dad?"
"Hazel! Brook is saved!" Her father sounded very happy on the other end of the phone. "This morning, Jack's assistant came over and gave Brook Fifty million in funding, and also provided some very useful advice.
"Really?" Hazel was stunned for a moment, but joy quickly flooded her heart.
Did Jack really help Brook?
She had originally thought that Brook might be done for, and after she called him a bastard yesterday, given his level of disgust towards her, it would undoubtedly have given him a good reason to refuse to help Brook through this difficult time. From last night until she answered the phone, she had been worried, but she had not expected to receive such good news.
"Can I still lie to you?" Her father was overjoyed. "Hazel, this time, you are a great hero for Brooks and our Family. Thank you."
Hazel smiled and slowly tided up the desk. "Dad, don't say that. Even if I have to go through a marriage like this, it's worth it, isn't it? Brook is saved, and so is my mother."
"Well then, see if you can come out with Jack in the next couple of days and we'll have a meal together. Although he is now our Brook family's son-inlaw, he has helped us after all, so we should at least treat him to a meal together."
Hazel turned to the office chair, thinking about Jack's attitude,and was
hesitating how to refuse when something on the desk made her instantly freeze.
