Chapter 4: Raina Lowell’s Deliberate Provocation

Hazel Hawthorne gritted her teeth. She unclenched her fist, and her expression changed in a flash. Forcing a wide smile, she looked at Aiden Xavier. "Of course I can’t pay it back. Thank you for going to all that trouble for my father, husband."

"You’re welcome," Aiden Xavier replied with a smirk.

Not only had Hazel Hawthorne failed to get a divorce, but she had also become Aiden Xavier and Raina Lowell’s glorified nanny. She was beyond pissed, so she drank a little that night to drown her sorrows.

The next day, Hazel Hawthorne woke up with a groggy head.

She had had a bit to drink the night before and forgotten to close the window. She hadn’t slept well and, having been exposed to the cold draft all night, was now suffering from a slight cold and a headache.

After washing up, she went downstairs to find Raina Lowell ordering the villa’s maids to replace the living room furniture and curtains.
