Chapter 25 An Unexpected Meeting
- Hazel followed Ellena and Erica, who were walking ahead of her, taking slow steps in the living room. When they reached the living room door, Hazel gently opened it. "You two just rest for now. I'll be back later," she said in a calm tone, though her heart felt slightly heavy.
- Ellena nodded and smiled knowingly. Her smile signaled something, but Hazel only responded with a brief smile. "Alright," Ellena replied. However, her eyes immediately caught a detail that didn't escape her attention—Hazel was dressed very neatly. "Hazel, why are you wearing such formal clothes?" Ellena asked, her voice full of curiosity.
- Hazel briefly glanced at her outfit—a neatly pressed white shirt and a perfectly tailored blazer. She gave a slight smile, trying to deflect attention. "I'm going to work," she answered briefly, trying not to seem too open.
