Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband Chapter 150 First Meeting +5 Pearls
She wasn't wearing a hospital staff uniform, and she didn't look like a doctor either. The badge didn't seem to belong to the hospital. Who was she, and what was she doing here? Alexander was so lost in his thoughts that he did not realize his gaze had lingered on the girl's chest longer than necessary.
"Eyes up here, mister!" she snapped, waving her fingers in front of his face, clearly irritated. She had misunderstood his intent.
Alexander narrowed his eyes, his anger rising as his face turned red.
"You are very audacious!" he scowled. No one in his territory spoke to him like that.Têxt belongs to Nôdaisynovel.com.
"Huh! Shouldn't I be the one saying that?" Hazel grimaced and her tone was sharp.
Exhaling loudly, Alexander chose to ignore her and turned to Chloe. "You tell me, Chloe, what's going on here?" he demanded.
"I was looking for you and ended up on the wrong floor. When I was inquiring about you, this lady appeared and started scolding me arrogantly, telling me I was disturbing the peace and should leave immediately. She was so rude, Alexander. She humiliated me," Chloe complained, her voice laced with frustration.
Alexander! Hazel frowned. The name sounded familiar, but she was too irritated by Chloe's lies to think about it further.
"Come on, why don't you tell him the truth?" Hazel demanded, her tone cutting.
"I AM telling the truth, you bitch!" Chloe snapped, her voice laced with annoyance.
"Chloe!" Alexander scolded her as he was clearly taken aback by her swearing in public.
His circle and family were already having a hard time accepting her as his bride, and now she was tarnishing her image even more, creating additional trouble for him to convince everyone she was the perfect match for him. But despite her flaws, he loved her and had no intention of leaving her.
"What's the whole truth, then?" Alexander asked Hazel, making Chloe furrow her brow in disbelief. Was he seriously going to believe another woman over her? That was absurd.
"Alexander, I'm telling you the truth," Chloe insisted, batting her doe eyes at him. But Alexander's expression remained indifferent. As an authoritative figure and a Duke, he was accustomed to serving justice by hearing both sides of the story, not letting emotions sway him. "Let her speak, Chloe," he said, cutting her off. Chloe huffed in frustration, glaring at Hazel.
Despite her initial impression of him as a pervert and arrogant, Hazel found herself reluctantly impressed by Alexander's impartiality.
"I accept that your girlfriend might have come here by mistake," Hazel began, her tone steady, "but then she collided with a kid who's been here for six months, undergoing cancer treatment. Instead of comforting him and helping him up after he fell, she slapped him hard, scolding him for dirtying her dress. Not only that, she created chaos in a ward where many cancer patients need rest and peace."
Hazel paused, watching the Duke's expression, which remained unreadable.

"When I intervened and tried to stop her, she shouted at me and even attempted to hit me. She failed to assault me, though, because she's full of pretense and can only pick on those who are weaker," Hazel grimaced with disgust, her eyes narrowing at Chloe. "Now, I expect an apology from her to the kid and the entire ward for disturbing them and disrespecting their dignity," she demanded firmly. "I won't let her go
until then."
Without a second thought, Alexander turned to Chloe.
"Apologize immediately," he ordered, his tone leaving no room for argument. Chloe's jaw dropped in disbelief.
"Are you seriously going to believe her over me?" Chloe's eyes widened in shock as she accused him.
"Chloe, it's just an apology. There's no need to make a fuss. Just do it," Alexander replied coldly.
Taking a deep breath, Chloe turned to Hazel, knowing how stubborn the Duke could be. His words were final.
"I'm sorry," she mumbled in a low tone, though her face remained unapologetic.
"Not to me, but to the kid and to the whole ward," Hazel said, folding her arms over her chest.
"Fine!" Chloe huffed and turned to the kid, who stood behind Hazel, still looking scared with tears in his eyes. "I'm sorry, kiddo," she said coldly. Then, raising her voice, she added, "I'm sorry, okay!" She said it with an air of arrogance before walking away with frustrated strides, leaving Alexander behind.
Alexander sighed and rubbed his forehead, knowing Chloe's temper well. He realized he would need to coax her later, as she was likely angry with him now.
"Now that it's done, can we leave?" Alexander asked Hazel.
"Okay," Hazel replied in a soft voice. "But teach your girlfriend some manners," she advised.
screens.
The Duke was amused by her comment. Did she really not recognize him? He found it hard to believe, as every woman in town knew him and most people recognized him. He was featured in every newspaper, tabloid, and occasionally displayed on television news Shaking his head, he murmured, "Thanks, Miss," and turned on his heel, leaving with his imposing stride.
Hazel couldn't help but stare at his back as he walked away, still intrigued by the handsome but arrogant man who seemed familiar. She couldn't quite place where she had heard his name before. She tilted her head slightly as she watched him disappear into the elevator. Who was he?!
